Sale Wheeler Cease basically three best in the NO right now

Would never have happened on the part of local writers...took historic levels of ineptitude to expose the truth. The Emperor has no clothes! Maybe a couple of books do get written now because the story is so entertaining and almost unbelievable...don't have to be a Sox fan to appreciate it.

We still really only have Bannister...Crochet/Schultz/Smith and zero can't miss hitting prospects and a non existent system wide hitting approach.

Also, Burger and Sheets bringing in their own specialized hitting equipment...would be yet another major indictment. KW probably didn't like that they demonstrated their own initiative on hitting improvements outside the team framework.

And Orioles....ONLY requires Witt, one hundred plus million in FA spending and/or the best farm system in the game.

Ofc he had to tack away from Hahn and Haber. There was a not so subtle dig in there from KW about his ability to scout a future All-Star in person and the intimation that those two aforementioned guys were clearly lacking in that skillset.

That Athletic take down article is must reading. And thoroughly embarrassing. About their A320 that's arguably the worst in the big leagues...shades of Major League again. All the damning quotes. Outsourcing analytics. Analytics reports conflicting because of multiple sources without a common agreement on which one to use. Total lack of information going to pitchers hitters and fielders...and little insights on how to utilize it. What makes me most angry is Kenny Williams coming back just when they got good again to gum everything up with his pride and ego...now the Burger/Eder trades rankles even more understanding the civil war going on behind the scenes. Also all that stuff about Williams' kid being a complete disaster in the front office. Finally Hahn and Haber to this day have still not gone on record...both totally out of the sport. Almost feel sorry for Griffin. Almost. As Pham expressed his frustration with various aspects of operations.

https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb-playoffs-2024-ranking-all-the-postseason-teams-starting-rotations-from-the-guardians-to-the-phillies-201012464.html Orioles enter post season with only 12th best rotation...shocking development

The 1916 Philadelphia Athletics season was the 16th season of the Philadelphia Athletics baseball franchise. The team concluded the season in eighth place within the American League, achieving a record of 36 wins against 117 losses (.235 winning percentage). Then the modern record, the 1962 NY Mets...The 1962 Mets (expansion team) set the modern-era record for losses in a season with 40-120-1. With an even month left in the season, Chicago (White Sox) has lost 104 games, three losses ahead even of the '62 Mets' pace for the season.

Cease with a one hitter through 6 1/3 against Houston.

Hahaha. Aiyo.

Moncada three batters from actually hitting.

Amaya not bunting? Sigh.

Too much for Vargas to come through twice.

Moncada not injured yet pinch running?

Somehow fitting. Never ending game. Sheets is going to bunt homer or K?

Should have given DLS a cleaner inning.

Not again...former #1-1 pick Moniak scores. 7th game of WS here.

How does that maximize Robert's trade value? Just DFA him like Alex Rios? Hope someone bites on contract?

Nearing bottom of Angels' lineup. Now or never.

LoL. Benintendi comes through again.

Well that pretty much encapsulates the season right there. Then DeLoach trying too hard to be the hero against a guy with pedestrian stuff.

Drury's 472 ops unsurprisingly extends the game to 11. Lopez surely bunting the runner over again.

Wanted Drury...presumably.
