As most of you know, I'm a big fan of Rich J. Hill. Hill, howvever, has had more poundings than gems. His stuff is very good. The problem is that he needs good instruction. That's a dilemna because he is out of options and certainly won't pass through waivers. If Scott McGregor could have this kid for a couple a months, its possi

It seems as though the Orioles are on the verge of signing 16 year old dominican shortstop Miguel Angel Sano. The deal could be higher than the $2.4 million that Matt Hobgood signed for this year. He is considered a mid to late first round talent. The Orioles are waiting for MLB to get back about his age and identity

The Orioles have been fairly streaky during the 2<sup> nd</sup> quarter of games, but overall have done a little better than the first quarter. They were at 20-20 in games 41-80 before losing their last 3 games to make it 20-23. Therefore they hung around the .500 mark, which is pret

Time for Rich J. Hill to go. NOW! Some will say that he has talent and we should give him a chance. Didn't we hear/do that about/with Daniel Cabrera, Garrett Olson, and Radhames

For about, oh 10,11 or 12 years now the O's fans have endured "rebuilding". Granted there have been changes in the Front Office resulting in "re-evaluations", but nevertheless I am somewhat confused. How do we, as fans, know when to invest our emotions(i.e. loyalty) in any particular player? I was born the year the Oriole

Chris Tillman and Brian Matusz are now both in the top 10 prospect rankings. Now of course some have moved off the list, like Wieters, Rasmus, and Price because they are now in the majors. But it still shows the direction of them both.
Tillman is actually the #1 RHP, and Matusz is the #2 LHP

Glad to see the bats woke up tonight against the Ms but why heading into a day game tommorow are your starters still in the game in the 7th inning with a 9 run lead? Why didnt you leave Albers in for an extra inning of work? Chances are he wont get to pitch tommorow. Guithrie was hurting obviously and Hendrickson did an excellent job picking him up.
This is what continueously frustrate

One move that could be made depending on Guthrie heading to the DL. Why not try to place either Felix Pie or Oscar Salazar on optional waivers to see if their is a taker? They can pull back players on optional waivers, but another move has to be made

I cant remember the last time this guy had a big hit, meanwhile Salazaar has been up for almost a month and has seen about an at bat a game during that time. Mora isnt in the long term plans and isnt under contract after this year. Mora cant run anymore period and he does flash the leather every now and again but that certainly doesnt warrant starting a full nine game in and game out, well at leas

My goodness. I know the team was hitless over the last 24 batters, but Brad Bergensen had snake oil on the ball. His pitch count was high, but he still had to go out in the 9th. The team is heading west and the All-Star break is a week and half away. If there were a time for a rookie to make his complete game, this was it.
He has made some tough call moves, but m

When you look at the total body of work his mid-season stats are very impressive.......however if you look at the last 35 games, almost one quarter of the season, he only has 1 HR. What is physically wrong with Adam Jones, if anything? He is making good contact and still hits for average.......I am quite

B.J Ryan was just released by the Blue Jays and the team is in need of a solid bullpen option in the back end as well. He has been shaky this year, but as we know pitchers are creatures of habit. Could a re-hash of scenery in the orange and black be in order for the Oriole

Just heard the Marlins might pony up for Sherrill according to www.mlbtraderumors.com. He has been lights out lately and might not easily be replaced. My question is would you trade him?
