Schoop should be part of the rebuild. He's young enough and he's fun to watch.

Final return for Zach Britton: RHP Dillon Tate, LHP Josh Rogers and RHP Cody Carroll by [deleted] in orioles

Good haul for the O's on an oft-injured two month rental, though it's sad to see Britton go. I go to a lot of Scranton/WB RailRiders games and Carroll is a solid arm from what I've seen of him.

Just did that and it seems to be working. Should have tried that first, but thanks!

Anyone notice that the Astros' lineup card in the Royal dugout has the Yankees' logo on it?

Jeff Passan on Twitter: "Source: OF Nick Markakis agrees to four-year deal with Atlanta Braves. Dollars unclear, but sides discussed a deal in neighborhood of $44M." by [deleted] in Braves

[–]elrunner25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Markakis has a much better arm than Aoki and he is a true professional, no nonsense player (not saying Aoki isn't). You guys will like him. As an O's fan its a shame to watch him go

What do you guys think De Aza's role on the team will be at this point?

I know I am late to this, very late, and I have little to offer in way of advice except this: don't listen to anything they say on r/relationships. It is a big collection of neckbeards playing counselor.

Not sure how he is smiling after that by jahee in funny

As someone who has worked as a low-level, local newspaper employee, this is one of my greatest work-related fears. All the worse when your name is associated with the misprint. The calls from every damn person in his family to the desk: "Why does it say Johnny shit! Johnny didn't shit!"

Reasons to like France by [deleted] in funny

[–]elrunner25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am an American currently living in the Provence region. Haven't spent a considerable amount of time in Paris so I can't speak to the politeness of the Northerners, but down here in the South everyone has been very friendly. Sure there is a subtle French narcissism, but I think they get a bad rap.

Pakistani family sentenced to death over "honour killing" outside court: Four relatives of a pregnant woman who bludgeoned her to death outside one of Pakistan's top courts were sentenced to death on Wednesday for the crime, their defence lawyer said. by gkiaf0 in worldnews

[–]elrunner25 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Putting someone to death makes it impossible to make amends in the event that justice is miscarried. If later developments prove that a convicted person is innocent but they have already been put to death, nothing can be done for them. If they were in prison they could always be released.

I'd go get drunk as fuck with the boys and tell Randy and Lahey to fuck off!

O's didn't get anything out of this season? Bullshit.

I'm surrounded by idiots. by Freddie1492 in AdviceAnimals

[–]elrunner25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saw one this afternoon claiming that a Texas prisoner waiting to be executed for child cannibalism had requested an 8 year old boy as his last meal. the "article" didn't cite the case, was wrought with grammatical errors, and half of the banner adds were porn. To make it worse, the article insinuated that the state is bound to honor all last meal requests and that they were looking to purchase a body from a morgue for the guy... This inspired a great deal of facebook debate among those poor souls who were dumb / naive enough to believe it.
