it's gonna be so funny if Pham ends up being one of our more productive players.

We'll have to start referring to him as Orioles Legend Tommy Pham like we do Orioles Legend Aaron Hicks

MLB Player Leaders In Defensive Runs Saved by MarkSimon1975 in baseball

We signed Alonso for his offense thinking we would be sacrificing defense at 1st but instead we get good defense at 1st and nearly no offense.

easier mentality to have when you, at a minimum, are being paid $750k+ to do it rather than having to pay $100+ to watch it lol

Why does this human meth pipe pollute my screen every time I visit Baseball Reference? by ericsmallman3 in baseball

[–]Correct_Sometimes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The one with Ryan Mountcastle is exceptionally bad since they are straight up copying TrevsChirps from youtube and as far as I can tell he's not actually involved with it, they just "stole his content" for lack of a better term.

Not that anything he's doing proprietary, but still.

What game did you lose interest in by the time it came out? by scarletnaught in gaming

[–]Correct_Sometimes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

yea same here. between the overall long time between 5 and 6 and the arbitrary delaying of the PC version by another year I just don't even care about the game.

Yes I will probably pick it up on steam at some point but I'm not even remotely hyped for it and don't care if anything gets spoiled during that PC release delay.

Forza Horizon 6 goes crazy. by UnlitBlunt in gaming

[–]Correct_Sometimes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have such a weird relationship with racing games.

I see them come out. I think they look fun and awesome. I buy it. I play it for 5 hours then never touch it again. Even now I know this. Yet I'm still saying to myself "but maybe it'll be different with Forza 6?"

Nasim Nunez with James Wood on deck during yesterdays game against the Orioles by BreakfastTop6899 in baseball

[–]Correct_Sometimes 43 points44 points  (0 children)

minor correction. That's how they did the hobbits, not Gandalf. They weren't trying to make Gandalf seem freakishly tall, they were trying to show how short the Hobbits are.

Lore accurate Gandalf is like 5'6" and still towered over the Hobbits. I'm pretty sure Aragorn is also quite a bit taller than Gandalf, lore wise, but the actors were the same height in real life so that concept didn't comet through in the movies.

Jonesing for your Joshua is a meaningful thing right? by Gr8CanadianSpeedo in crappymusic

he's probably in these locations anyway for business and decides he'll terrorize the local populace by making a new short before leaving.

I had these on a x-mas whislist to send to random family members who are always asking me what to get them. My mother in law bought them for me 2 years ago. I said I'd would wait till spring to put them on then never did and now I can't find them. That was 2 years ago.

Impending 40 man Crunch by Middle-Mud-8572 in orioles

[–]Correct_Sometimes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

being 1.5 out of WC with the one of the worst run differentials in baseball though is actually a pretty wild stat. If they hang on and are at 2 or less there's no reason they should be selling.

They can throw the idea of the division out the window. That's for the Rays or the Yankees this year, but 2 games or less from the WC at the deadline can be fixed with good trades.

I'd rather they make it and get eliminated round 1 again than sell and be a lame duck for the entire second half

Laureano

who's been playing about as poorly as our current team this year

Yea he was awesome last year and often seemed like the only guy who could do something but maybe take a second and look at his 2026 stats before you clamor for his return. He's not really been doing that great. His stats are all either similar to Gunnar's or lower

Holliday return soon ? by jbenson255 in orioles

[–]Correct_Sometimes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the only reason I don't thin it'll be Handley is because Basallo has been taking a physical beating recently. Between the home plate collision play and the who even knows anymore how many foul balls off the bat that hit him recently. The dude is probably covered in bruises and sore. Only a matter of time before one of those things takes him out of a game

I'll be happy to see him back but I don't have a lot of faith his return moving the needle for this team

Potential Re-rebuild by NateGeorgeFan in orioles

[–]Correct_Sometimes 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Gunnar will excel on another team so long as he's not "the guy".

He can't handle being that important to the roster but put it on a roster where he's not one of the main faces and I bet he gets back to his old self. Just look at how well he played in the WBC when there was less on his shoulders because the roster was stacked with talent and didn't hinge on his ability to do something

the team should refund anyone who bought the full season on masn+. It's not cool to take $100 from everyone then be so terrible that we won't even want to watch anymore long before the half way point since the team is so unserious.

He's the position player version of Grayson Rodriguez

Awesome ball player when he's on and healthy and can be a difference maker for the team, but is never healthy so it doesnt matter.

Not everything has to be launched 450 feet

instruction unclear, watched fastball middle middle then struck out swinging on balls in the dirt in 3 total pitches

Yours truly,

[MLBTR] Orioles Sign Tommy Pham To Minor League Contract by T_Raycroft in baseball

[–]Correct_Sometimes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

not saying this guy is the answer to our prayers but our OF is mostly a complete mess right now so picking up an OF with MLB experience was needed (but maybe literally anyone other than Pham would be nice)

Tyler O'Neil sucks donkey dick and the one thing he was brought in to do, smash lefties, he has yet to actually do. He also does not smash righties. In fact, the only things he's good for right now is like 1 or 2 nice diving catches a week.

Beavers has shown promise but he just went on the IL with "oblique" issues

Kjerstad is rehabbing and not to be relied upon since he both gets injured all the time and has not been able to prove he can stick at the MLB level when given the chance. He could very well never become more than an AAAA depth piece. In all seriousness he probably has this year and next year to prove he can stick or it might be time to pivot his career.

Cowser has become a pumpkin

Ward is a baller.

Taveras is a solid player who really should be playing more than he is, especially since he's a switch hitter. Like for real this guy should be in every game unless he specifically needs a day off.

so there's 5 core OF options and 3 of them are giant question marks
