i don't mind them picking him up, but (the authority to spend) $500,000 in bonus pool money is actually useful! especially for a rebuilding team! there's no reason to give that up for a below-replacement quad-a player who'd already been dfa'd

Somehow the "guess the ORIOLES final record" thread has become the Orioles thread but I wish to resist it! So let me just say: 12-12 for the month of July, lots of good performance from the rest of the leagues cast-off no-names, feeling good about this team + Mountcastle and sure, why, not, Dillon Tate the rest of the way (chatter seems to be almost silent about the rest of the team being traded, we'll see)

Orioles comeback last night was inspiring even though Jace Peterson almost ruined it by being a dodo on the basepaths

That comeback was a bit more historic than you may think:

-460 is an absolutely insane line for any MLB game, even those September ones where half the starters sit

Torres has 13 home runs against the Bad Birds in just 16 games, one of which he didn’t start—a pace of 131.6 home runs over 162 games.
just not fair, give the Stanks' win total an asterisk

exactly half of his home runs for the season have been against the orioles

pathetic that the orioles will not call up (international league mvp) ryan mountcastle
yes he needs to walk more, but having just torched a triple-a league, there's nothing he needs to learn in the arizona fall league. can't take at-bats away from chris davis i guess

Veteran lefty Tommy Milone, who went 4-10 with a 4.76 ERA for the Mariners last year, will be the Opening Day starter for the Orioles on Friday at Fenway Park. https://t.co/mgEUAMTTds— Greg Johns (@GregJohnsMLB) July 21, 2020
