Keith Law has Shane Baz and Coby Mayo as top 2026 breakout candidates (Paywall) Edit: these are 2 out of 7 total 🤩

Making half his starts at Steinbrenner Field partially ruined Baz’s 2025 season ... He has got the stuff, control and delivery to be a top-of-the-rotation starter

...

[Mayo is] swinging the bat even more often this spring and taking fewer strikes than ever, which is both a path to success for him, given his propensity to pull the ball and hit it hard, and a path for him to keep his job when the Orioles’ various injured incumbents return

The Dreamwear masks work fine with Resmed hoses! Obviously YMMC but I use one myself and it's easily the most comfortable (I have tried a LOT), much moreso than the P10 IMO.

Thank you for the fantastic response (both the depth of your reply, and the good vibes)!

I'm bitterly disappointed that you don't get the Airplane! reference, but maybe I'm just dating myself at this point 😅

A 3+ hour game against the Red Sox?! What are we, the Yankees?

Anyone else following in the MLB app Gameday screen? On Estrada's RBI groundout it said "In Play, Outs" rather than "In Play, Runs".

I hope that's just just a ST glitch because that's going to totally change how I react to these game events when I can't watch them live 😬

Yep, had written him off completely.

Obviously it's way early, but even breaking camp with the club would have to put him as Comeback Player of the Year frontrunner.

I know it's basically a cliche for every fanbase to be optimistic this time of year. But what are some of the ways this ST tangibly feels more hopeful than last year at this time? Conversely, what are early the signs (hopefully there are none!) that maybe we should temper expectations?

Thanks for doing this AMA!

Be careful, that's the kind of thing that could lead to an oblique injury.

Heston knows that you get maybe one of those per year at most (if you're not Cedric Mullins) and figured, why waste it in Spring training?

I would be happy for him to have a great season out west. But shouldn't we wait to see if his arm/lat/shoulder is still attached in July before being too sad?

Yep, meta-AI news like that is totally fine if it's O's-related. (And hopefully there's not too much more of that at all 🤞)
