  1. Hey what has not "jinxing" gotten us the last 10 years anyway? Lol
  2. Need one more for our fantasy team...anybody here play?
  3. How many times have I said Elias needs to go? Now if I were in front office PR why would I say that? Lol It's almost like because I'm not telling Rubenstein to sell the team already, or just am giving him a little more time to see what kind of owner he'll be, that y'all think I'm somehow this blind orange kool-aide drinking or something for the FO. I am not. This really has less to do with Elias other failures and more to do with the question of the organization as whole and the question of their willingness to lock up young talent early. And in this case...this is how I see it: I just disagree with this narrative that the team simply isn't trying. I mean just last year...Boras himself said that the Orioles had been constantly reaching out to him about Gunnar "only every other day". That means there is a desire to extend him, but he turned them down, lol And factually: None of those Boras extensions have been "early" except two: the rest came in arbitration years. In total: It was just 5 Boras players who took extensions before free agency. Now if you wanna argue against facts I can't help ya... Yes he works for the players: But what has history shown us? He wants his players to maximize their value and they follow his lead in that almost every single time. Gunnar has only just started building his star power: The fact of the matter is they'd have to drop like $450-$500 million right now to get him: and only MAYBE would Gunnar and his agent accept that (they might not). He could actually make more if he waits for free agency. I think some of you are vastly underestimating the problem Boras has been and why fans from small market teams all over can't stand him as an agent.
  4. It truly is. See this is the kind of early deal Boras can't stand, lolol So glad to see the effort from the org to extend a young star!
  5. Oh. My. Goodness Ha...SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN BORAS ISN'T THE AGENT????? See this proves it...he is the reason we haven't extended anybody else (especially Gunnar). I was hoping Basallo didn't have him as an agent and thankfully he doesn't, lol
  6. I don't think they're gonna let him get away with doing bare minimum to nothing IF they keep him one more year...unless he's somebody that doesn't care whether he loses his job or not, lol
  7. Let's just hope being on the hotseat forces some change...because if he stays next year WILL be his last year to get it right (hopefully)
  8. Oh heck yeah! Was not expecting this today (was thinking they would wait until September! This is the Orioles saying the equivalent of "HERE! Dang " to everyone screaming for him and Beavers, lol
  9. Oh my gosh y'all he's up here now dang let's just enjoy it P.S. My theory is Elias just likes his young talent in general and would rather win a championship that way than quality FA signings. But it just doesn't work that way and that's the flaw in his philosophy. And IF he gets another chance (I'd rather they move on) he'd better change that or he out!
  10. And also...how about Brandon Frickin' Young with 7.2 perfect innings??? (Darn you Urias--I KNEW that was gonna haopen just as a poke in the eye to Elias who should've kept him, lol). Baseball is a funny game! That was really something! What a way to get your first big league win, lol
  11. Yeah I have concerns about Elias still being here when the new manager is selected--and don't trust him in letting the manager hire his own staff. Everybody but maybe Britton and the other guy (I think his name is Mayer?) has got to go. And you know...Drew French is not a terrible pitching coach either, imo
  12. I still wanna know why the heck the moisture cutoff from Baltimore north during the winter has lasted this long. Like..."north and west of the city" and the usual snowing areas hasn't even been a thing! Something going on this long makes "random chance" difficult to accept. I swear it feels like something in the atmosphere changed because it’s been a literal wall, smh
  13. Nah this is what he does. He is THE hype man of the forum and everybody loves it!
