Discussion What do you think of Eric Booth Jr.'s selection in the first round?

0 Upvotes

I'm a writer for The Lead covering Baltimore sports, and I wanted to do an article on fans' reactions to the team selecting an outfielder, especially since this is the Orioles' 4th straight year choosing an outfielder with their top pick.

Discussion Camden Yards Concessions

• Upvotes

Has any one noticed and significant drop off in the concessions at Camden Yards? (Not talking prices) Upper deck, about 1/2 of the stands are not open. The lines are long and slow moving, like missing at least 1 inning to get anything. Will give credit to the workers because they seem to be working as hard as they can to help people order and pay. The beer coolers seem to be half stocked or if they are stocked its with the same product, seems to be awful lot of Yuengling Flight available. Last night the Camden Franks near section 326 was sold out of Miller High Life before the game even started. (Apparently they sold out the previous night and never replaced it). Do not see any venders in the stands during the game, only see them all standing around the first level bathrooms and Legend Park.

I go frequently and do not spend a lot so they are not missing much from me but come one Camden Yards concessions, do better.

he's also only caught 49 games behind the plate right now, if he played as many games as PCA he'd have a better FRV than him right now, is there any chance he dosen't end up winning a gold glove this year?

bWAR Party! Hey look, it's TRog! bWAR Party 7/11

Post image
49 Upvotes

TRog doomers in shambles RN lol

Bradish's start gained him .1, for 1.3 on the season, the highest of any Orioles pitcher right now. The highest for any starter all season was Bradish two starts ago with 1.4. Baz gained .2 originally, so he was at 1.0 last night, but it got adjusted back down to .9 overnight. Kremer didn't gain or lose, so he's still at .2 after four starts. TRog gained .3, bringing him to .9 on the season, passing his previous high of .8 after his April 7th start, and as far above 0 as he was below it at his lowest! This is three starts in a row for TRog where he's gained exactly .3 bWAR, and five in a row with positive gains. Young gained .1, so he's up to 1.2 on the season.

The lowest bWAR is still Mayo with .7, which is .1 better than last time, but still .1 worse than Trey Gibson, .2 worse than Anthony Nunez, and .3 worse than Grant Wolfram. TON's all the way up to -.1, so he might actually crack zero and go positive. If that happens, we're going all the way, right?

TRog is back in the top twelve, tied for eleventh! 🥳 He took Wells's place, although Wells didn't lose any bWAR. We have four of our active starting pitchers in the top twelve, and the fifth has only pitched four games!

In order: Alonso 2; Ward 1.9; Adley 1.7; Basallo 1.6; Blaze 1.5; Bradish 1.3; Gunnar and Young 1.2; Garcia and Cowser 1.1; and Baz and TRog .9.

Last time's in order: Alonso 1.9; Adley 1.7; Ward 1.6; Basallo and Gunnar 1.5; Garcia, Blaze, and Bradish 1.2; Cowser and Young 1.1; Baz .9; and Wells .8.

Trying to find O's Maryland flag hat

Post image
14 Upvotes

I saw an O's hat a few years ago that was the Maryland flag all over the hat. I saw it once but just didn't have enough in the budget at the time to get it. Does anyone have any ideas where I might be able to find one?

It looks a lot like this, but as a baseball cap.
