I Need Your Help With a Good O's Name

This is on the down low, as most of the family doesn't know yet, but we are expecting our third child next year.

I just stumbled across this t-shirt. I'm not about to pay $32 for it, but I thought everyone would be interested. I personally prefer this shirt. Someone should send one to Jason Berken.

Towards the bottom is a blurb on Baez using his split-finger again. He thinks that's what killed his arm, but now his arm "feels fine." If your career is on the way out anyway, I suppose you might as well beat up your arm trying to stay in the league.

Pads GM Towers: Peavy-Olson-Pie-et al is up to Cubs now

Kevin Towers says in the Union-Tribune this morning that a deal is in place. It's up to the Cubs to sign off on it.

We've been around the room with this one already. I think it comes down to what we value more. A young unproven starting pitcher? Or a young unproven outfielder?

How would the O's do outside the AL East?

Yeah, whining about the strength of our division is a perennial pasttime and an unsolvable quandry. I couldn't help but notice, though, the O's record in this article at Salon.

On the Bright Side

Hey everyone...

Am I wrong or have we sealed up the #5 pick in the draft? It was a crummy season and the 2009 O's will definitely not be the 2008 Rays, but I'd rather finish in the bottom 5 and keep getting top draft picks before exploding into 1st like the Rays then spend several years in the middle of the pack.

There's been much talk on here about how we should just write off our pitchers with a torn labrum because it's virtually impossible to recover from. Just saw this and thought I should pass it along. Maybe there's still hope...
