Yeah that .077 batting average is going to get the job done....

I actually expect them to hit a lot better than they are so far. They just won't get anyone out :lol:

Chance Sisco looks like he won't be a complete fuck-up though...

So they do get Detroit 6 times in April and Tampa for 3 games....the problem is they also play the Twins (1-2), Houston, the Skankees, Toronto, the Indians and the Red Sox too...they **might** win 5 games in April :lol:

This is an example of how good ESPN could be....it's also an example of how signing a .220 hitter who can hit 500 foot homers and that's about it to a long term high dollar contract is a fucking stupid idea.

Orioles 'slugger' Chris Davis is having a mind-bogglingly bad season

It was a relatively slow day of baseball on Thursday, so indulge me as I go down the rabbit hole with Chris Davis. Hopefully we'll all come out alive.

Davis is having a terrible season. I didn't realize exactly how mind-boggling awful until Wednesday morning when I noted that, despite playing in nearly all the Baltimore Orioles' games, he had scored just nine runs. I mentioned this on Twitter and one response I can print here came from robj1028, who wrote back, "I feel awkward liking a tweet that I don't really like the fact presented but there's no other reaction on Twitter."

--snip--

I would guess Davis has a shot, if only because of the most important criteria (besides sucking): playing time. Davis is signed for four more seasons after this one, at a hefty price of $23 million per season. With such a heavy investment in Davis, and this season already lost, the Orioles may have little choice but to plow forward and hope Davis can figure things out.

And if he doesn't? As one reader responded to me, "I can't wait to tell my grandkids the Orioles couldn't sign Manny Machado because they instead signed Chris Davis."

Does he have any children with terrible haircuts? Because I thought that strategy was fool proof, but...

ummm.....what...in....the....fuck....

The Orioles remain mired in the long-running dispute with Major League Baseball and the Washington Nationals over the revenue split from the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network, and it is beginning to create some angst over the future of baseball in Baltimore.

MASN and Orioles attorneys have contended in court documents that a negative outcome would create a financial hardship for the franchise, while the Nationals insist they already are being severely disadvantaged by the deal they agreed to in 2005 that gave the Orioles a much larger piece of the MASN pie.

That debate has simmered for years as the teams raised concerns about their economic sustainability. But as a new MLB panel prepares to rehear the case, there have been whispers around town about the possibility of the Orioles leaving Baltimore one day.
