I’m not sure they get better trading him and if they can resign him at a value deal, they should do so.

Emptying the stands but keeping the players on the field b/c of lightning is strange enough. But #masn piping in the fake crowd noise is just bizarre. Please stop! #Orioles

Good times. In my experience, most of the ramps we built ourselves couldn’t hold up to the weight of the bike and we wrecked before endangering anyone else.

Happy Bastille Day! It's always important to remember the holiday's most important message: no matter how bleak things look, never stop standing up to Nazis.

🚨BREAKING: Cal State LA just moved classes online and let faculty work remotely, not for a storm, not for COVID, but because ICE is in the area.

Let that sink in, an entire university is treating immigration enforcement like a public health crisis.

Yikes. Who did this? Frank played RF in Baltimore. Brady played LF & CF. And everyone knows LF belongs to Roenicke/Lowenstein. Roberts is your 3rd best 2B behind Grich & Alomar. Boog only DHed in 1 game in Baltimore. Singleton or Baines gets the nod. Gregg Olson is your closer. Tippy sets him up.

Nothing like tuning in for a Sunday #Orioles game at 1:30 and finding out it’s 2-0 in the 8th inning. Thanks for the inning and a half #Roku! πŸ˜”πŸ€¨πŸ˜©
