Trembley: Bynum is starting shortstop

<quoted text>You mean sensational right?

Probably not. And that's (hopefully) just the spelling. Welcome to Baltimore. Any sentence with only one negative or that does not include the phrase "we was" is an improvement.

You guys are absolutely NUTS.

If most of the team has to be replaced after next season, do you think it's going to IMPROVE the way Angelos does things?

Markakis is a no-brainer. He should be signed to a long-term deal.

Sign Roberts or deal him.

People talk about Scott Moore and Rowell as though they're locks to make the roster.

AMAZING.

These guys probably won't make it to MLB much less excel.

You "fans" really like losing baseball. You have no idea of the talent level needed to win.

People are on here defending Luis Hernandez!!!! He's not even AA quality.

My guess is probably that some international baseball players could come in two years or more.

Peter Angelos has never allowed a player from Taiwan, China, Korea or Japan into the organization.

I wouldn't wait up for him to change his racial biases. Pretty much every team in MLB has Asian players except for Baltimore. What possible reason could Angelos make for not using that resource?

Remember, Angelos is the guy who forced Davey Johnson to change automobiles because he was driving a car built in Japan.

The O's have ZERO scouting in Asia, even though they like to lie about it to reporters every couple of years.

Walt,
There's a parade somewhere. Bring your rain.

John.... just stating a fact. That is unless you have a solution and if so please enlighten all of us.

<quoted text>Maybe, maybe not. This kid, he just turned 28, can really do the job at shortstop and he also adds a lot of speed on the bases. Of course you can't steal first so it will come down to how consistent he hits. I would take about a .270 average with some stolen bases and be the gem in the field I know he has shown some last year and again last night.

Don.... would love to see Bynum hit .270 and for that matter any of our SS but I doubt that will happen anytime soon. Where's Belanger when we need him? lol
