And you know what's right next door to DC don't ya!

O's gonna swoop in

nOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO's.

Twitter is making me stay up all night and I don't even know how to use the freaking thing.

 

[Sharp]

So did anything ever come of the Prince thing?

 

[eznark]

Holy shit, if that deal is correct...enjoy the last five years of that contract Nats fans!

First one in that stadium?

The other two are to the left of it. The Wild Card one is gold in color.

Dan Patrick citing source Ryan Braun may be exonerated in drug test by MLB. Says it was not a personal reason for positive test.

Fuck this shit, just suspend him and lets move on.

Via Rotoworld:

According to MASN's Jen Royle, Orioles management has been trying to lure money out of owner Peter Angelos for a run at free agent first baseman Prince Fielder.

For whatever that is worth.

 

[darkside31337]

Duquette deserves executive of the year if he can somehow get Angelos to agree to do that.

mays and aaron seem like they would be a little too old to win two mvps in the 60s and no way mantle and maris won 4 when they were on the same team. Robinson was a little younger than Mays and Aaron if I recall and I know he won 2 (one in each league) and Maris was pretty young too and i know he won 1 in 61.

Sooo D. Robinson and Maris.

 

[eznark]

uh, D

total guess

I'm pretty sure Hank Aaron only won 1 MVP award and I'm also pretty sure it's not C as well. I'll go with B

 

[Malo]

I'm going with D.

For whatever that is worth.

Oh it's worth a lot. Prince WANTS to be an O, we just don't like paying for greatness. This must change.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Im going with B.

 

[rad5four]

So did anything ever come of the Prince thing?

He is going to the Cleveland Indians.

 

[The_Inquisitor]

Alright, I gotta get over our loss and get stoked for baseball.

LET'S GO RANGERS!

Watching late night baseball in the summer is the best!

D.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Has such a big guy taken so long to get a big contract before? Pitchers and catchers are reporting in a month.

 

[Madtown_]

I'll go with D, but I don't have a clue.

I'm a homer for Braun, but eznark don't you want all the facts heard about him, herpes or not?

 

[eznark]

Eh, I just want the issue resolved.

Holliday I think signed in January a few years ago, don't think it was this late though.

Welp, now that my football dreams are dashed, I'm ready to have my baseball dreams dashed in April.

Go O's!

 

[bluemax]

So the Pineda Montero trade might be finalized today. Sounds like Montero is getting his physical done in Seattle.

 

[Madtown_]

Eh, I just want the issue resolved.

I do too. Hopefully the result of the appeal comes out this week, he gives the press conference he said he wanted to give and the issue goes away until the season starts.

Don't let jangocube hear you say that.

About time, it's been over a week.

 

[eznark]

I don't believe this Fielder to the O's shit for a second. What an idiotic signing that would be.

 

[Jangocube]

Welp, now that my football dreams are dashed, I'm ready to have my baseball dreams SUPER HYPED in April.

Yes yeesssssssssssss, another believer.

How so? He'd be beastly in Camden Yards

I know yesterday was soul crushingly depressing for Ravens fans but that was just one day of misery. Rooting for the O's is just a lifetime of misery. Do you really want that?

 

[Sanjuro]

How so? He'd be beefy in Camden Yards

Fixed.

 

[eznark]

Yes yeesssssssssssss, another believer.

Your team won 69 games with Lee last year. He was not good, but Fielder is what, 5 wins better tops? So now you're pushing 75 wins and cannot sign another player until he retires.

Good luck!

 

[Sanjuro]

While on the topic of Baltimore, I need to make another appearance at Camden this season. It's been a few seasons.

Last season was Texas. Doubt I will be heading back there.

See, but you aren't factoring in swag. Fielder has it. +10 wins for swag.

 

[rad5four]

My Indians should be making the Playoffs this year.

 

[Doytch]

Today's Baseball Today is fantastic. Klaw rips reader after reader's suggestions to change baseball. Some of you idiots (remove DH, contract team X) should listen.

 

[darkside31337]

Assuming Ubaldo returns to form I'd consider them the favorites.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

If Fielder signs with Natinals, they should let Harper play in the majors. Harper, Fielder, Morse. Dat power.

 

[ToxicAdam]

Indians the favorites? They are still a very punchless offense with youth all over the place.

You take away that 30-11 start and they were a sub-par team last year.

The Tigers still have to be the (small) favorites, even with losing Victor.

Shocking that a guy who was bored by a 20-17 football game because it had too much defense thinks the DH should stay.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Thank Christ Willie Harris is finally gone from the NL East. Reds signed him to a minor league deal. He always kills the Braves in clutch spots.

 

[Doytch]

I honestly don't know how you could argue against his point that pitchers shouldn't have to make time to become good hitters.

 

[eznark]

I honestly don't know how you could argue against his point that pitchers shouldn't have to make time to become good hitters.

The DH is such a stupidly absurd and transparent sop to the lowest common denominator fan. We need homer runs for score!!!!! Catchers have the heaviest burden of any defensive player on the field and we expect them to hit, pitchers should be no different.
