why is Mitre still getting starting opportunities?

giving his starts to Banuelos, Betances, Brackman or any of the other prospects would be more productive at this point

Because they’re going to begin the year in the minors as Cashman had predetermined before ST?

I know that

but the experience is more valuable than giving Sergio a few complimentary appearances

Why does our whole team have bad obliques?

I want to know

how we could have yet another “Melky”.

I bet it's good to be playing again, huh?

by david d on Mar 22, 2011 1:09 PM EDT reply actions

this is the real one

the other was just testing us and preparing the phrase “the melkman delivers”

I hope

For those watching the ESPN stream

I’m handling your commercial breaks today.

Also, I really hope Grandy is okay.

On ESPN 3, "The Tres?"

is it messed up or is my evil IT department at it again?

I turned on the game just in time to see Baby Jesus get a hit.

Nope.

Our starting pitcher's name is Zach Britton

Don’t worry, you’ll come to know it soon enough.

He looks promising

The O’s are my “team to watch” this year.

I expect they’ll keep him in the minors to delay his service clock, but i’d be shocked if he isn’t in the majors by midyear. particularly since nobody who’s paying attention expects duchschererererer to pitch a single inning.

On the other hand, they also mentioned WAR (using it fairly accurately) during that game.

Cashman SHOCKINGLY has no interest in Ollie.

You know, instead of the professional response, I really wish Cashman would have laughed in reporters faces and just walk away while wiping tears from his eyes.
