THey play on the new team
I've had this argument that everything should be restored to the status of the suspended game

Hi Dan:  Where do the Orioles go from here?  Can they get anything decent for Machado, Brach, and Jones?  Camden Depot says the organization is suffering from three people making the important decisions with Brady Anderson having the ear of Angelos.  Is that true?  Thanks!

They'll get decent prospects for Machado.  But unless the absolutely perfect situation comes around, they're not getting the massive package that I believe they still think they'll get.
The O's are stuck in a different generation.  It's not without reason that teams are trying to trade guys at the deadline who have at least another year

My girlfriend had never seen the Office (US) and we are now on the penultimate episode. Allow me to state, publicly, that Jim and Pam are absolutely awful human beings.

Making my first trip to AT&T Park in a few weeks... Any advice on food, best seats, must-sees, etc?

I've got east coast bias, mainly because I hate flying that long
I've only been there once, so I don't have good SF recommendations

Have you ever stopped to think that maybe people such as John Smoltz's general distrust of analytics is rooted in the fact that they've collectively been working on the discovery of the root of the disconnect between quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity, and thus discovered a general flaw in our current understanding of *what* mathematics even is and how it works?
AvatarDan Szymborski

Smoltz does look a bit like General Zod, so maybe he's up to something

Does Mexico beating Germany in the World Cup settle the question of which is better: a Chorizo or a Bratwurst?

Hi Dan:  what happens to the O's if Brady Anderson becomes the next GM?  From what I understand, he cares very little about analytics.  Thx.

The O's may become an unwatchable, hopeless team!  Oh, wait...

Is Lewis Brinson still a viable 60 grade player given the struggles this year (and last)? Hard to find a silver lining with his numbers right now...
AvatarDan Szymborski

I'm still cautiously optimistic, but he has been a mess in the majors for some reason
2:19
And trust me, if I knew how to fix that, even thsoe cheapskates would give me a million dollars righ tnow

If the O's move Britton, does he close for his new team?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:19
Yeah.  I think the O's QO Britton otherwise, so if he's traded, it'll be for more than a team woudl give for a non-closer
I think

Does the Cardinals almost getting swept by the cubs instill some urgency to improve their roster
AvatarDan Szymborski

It's a cautious organization

Thinking about Matt's question really had me in a pickle...I mean, in a Cuban sandoozle.

What are the Brewers going to do with me and this log jam at the corners? The rich get richer, but surely they could get some help in some other areas with a move...
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:20
I think they're waiting to see what the most crucial need is as we get towards the deadline.
The Brewers would still not prefer to trade prospects and they're not signing anyone for $200 million anytime soon, so they're picking their points.

My reference for a machado package is the Martinez deal from last year. Given that, it seems that even while machado is a more valuable player, a package that included say, kolby allard, would be an overpay already. Am I way off-base?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:22
I can see Allard ONLY.  Not as part of a package.
I think JD Martinez as fair.  Machado better, but you also got Martinez a little longer
