Sammy Sosa strength and conditioning

Félix Hernández pitching coach
Jim Thome hitting coach

A little off the beaten path but there will always be “up and coming bench coaches” willing to manage your team you don’t always have the opportunity to hire the greatest right handed hitter all the time

Probably not his prime but everyone on the team except maybe Basallo should remember him winning the WS as a Cardinal (I would say Holliday too but he was there)

Bergman would be great but I would be shocked if the Orioles are willing to outbid the Red Sox or even the Tigers to get him

With Holliday the Reds would get more team control and some relief from the injury concerns around Greene but Greene is a genuine Cy Young caliber pitcher and Holliday is not the position player version of whatever that is

I’d do it in a heart beat which leads me to believe the Reds would not, maybe it would have to be Holliday+

Happy to help

Im posting from the drive through of an In N Out so Im working on both

I didn’t even notice I threw in the accent mark this is a brutal showing

Smh like I’m trying to win an award for fastest poster

“Wain the división” brother take a breath before you post

Me after hating the Orioles offseason last year but predicting them to wain the division anyway

No way something like that could happen twice

I need the offseason acquisitions to start so I can shift from bitter disillusioned man to delusional optimistic man and predict a 100 win season

Wanted to post something about how it’s all about the starting pitching but remembered that in the Orioles last playoff series they gave up a total of 3 runs and got swept so IDK about anything whatever I guess

Im trying to not get upset until they announce something but anytime I think about it for more than a second I get a little sick

If the Orioles hire Mansolino I will reach a new level of pessimism about Orioles leadership

It would be a commitment to insulating themselves against outside ideas and perspectives

It would broadcast a complete unwillingness to adapt

On the bright side I would have something to write about

John Smoltz somewhere watching this game alone: “analytics tell you that you have to walk in the run there and that’s what’s ruining the game”

The Brewers watched the Phillies run the intentionally walk Shohei and then accidentally walk Mookie play and immediately added it to their playbook

Abner Uribe really rubbing it in Philadelphia’s face with how much time he took to throw Pages out at first

Im trying to have a good attitude about all the AI stuff even if I think it’s dumb but I can’t for the life of me figure out what Google wants me to be excited about with these adds

Google: oh you think you like baseball now??? Well what if we told you that AI says that players that tap the plate before the pitch hit the ball harder!

Can you believe what this technology can do!?

What do you mean that’s a false cause fallacy??

What did we spend all this money for?

Every team should have to configure their team initials to look like baseball equipment

Every time I watch a Brewers game I miss important details because I’m distracted by how perfect the Brewers logo is
