As much as the general vibes for the Orioles are "fix the pitching, fix the team"...I don't have a ton of confidence that any player not named Henderson or Westburg is an above average hitter in 2026. And they've both been closer to "good" than "great" since 2024 ASB.

I think it's worse this time because of expectations. 101 win season followed by a playoff appearance followed by whatever this season is. And the scars from those 14 losing season, & the listlessness of the post-Buckleup Birds bring a bad taste to your mouth.

Forget eggsβ€”the cost of coffee is skyrocketing, and folks are noticing.

I heard it was coming, so I stocked up weeks ago, but my supply won’t last forever. Trump’s Brazil tariffs are to blame.

Your Sunday evening reminder that Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell trafficked real human beings, many children, explicitly to sexually abuse and rape them.
Also, release the Epstein files.

Oof. Yeah, I get the distinct impression both are great for drafting & scouting but haven't moved past that.

The organization needed Elias to rebuild from the ground up. That was his wheelhouse. But, like you said, he's got this off-season to prove if he's up to building an MLB contender. If he can't ownership needs to address that expeditiously.

Like, maybe encourage the players to let their personalities out, let them celebrate good plays, pimp HRs, & act like kids playing a game?

Unbelievable we've fallen this far as a society in this country when, in less than 80 years, the American right has gone full Not-Sea.

Ignoring most of the lies & nonsense in this random rant, I want to focus on his use, again, of "low IQ." What are the odds this exact phrase is in Donald's cognitive exam as a finding? Every accusation is a confession with this fascists.
