ABOLISH THE CENTRAL DIVISIONS!

Just put my life savings on the Colton Cowser home runs over. He hits 20+ homers someone is going to be able to put a nice down payment on a used CRV If he doesn’t I’m going to be very divorced

The guys who make the projection systems will tell you that they don’t have a great way to factor in injury, especially if the player plays through the injury the way Cowser did with his broken ribs I’ll take the over on all the Cowser projections

New Blog about the Orioles infield tackling questions like Are the Orioles handling Jordan Westburg’s injury correctly? How much grace will Jackson Holliday get if the hamate injury results in a poor season? How many position changes can one Mayo take? thedishwasher.blog/2026/02/22/t...

Kevin Brown: “and that’s Coby Mayo’s second throwing error here in his first professional appearance at third base in almost a year. It’s a tough situation but hopefully Jordan Westburg will be back soon.” Jordan Westburg in a country with no name:

Didn’t watch much Jhoenkensy Noel in Cleveland but from what I can tell he’s a platinum glover

Levi Wells vs “Bobby Witt Jr and Mike Trout combined into one player”

Yaramil Hiraldo vs Konnor Griffin

This is our second-best left-handed reliever

“Hope” is a good word to describe the Orioles strategy when it comes to the pitching staff

the trick is bat speedmaxxing without getting whiffmogged

Crazy how much attention this is getting

Trey Gibson did not throw a single four-seam and sat just 92 MPH on the sinker in his Grapefruit League debut, but he was very effective over 3 scoreless innings due in large part to a pair of excellent sliders.

Just saw Payton Eeles up close. He has quite the lower body.

Saw Mansolino on the timeline and wow what a trip down memory lane remembering how over his head he was Generational performance

I’m happy to report that I read this quote and gleaned as much information as possible from it. In terms of my reaction to this quote I am analyzing all possible options. I don’t want to overshare what my reaction to this quote is but I will say that nothing is off the table. Thanks for reading!

The bullpen, however…

The first thing a GM needs to do after putting together Plan A is to go around to each spot on the roster and ask “what do you do if this guy gets hurt?” In that regard Blaze Alexander, a very versatile player with just 1 year of service time, was an excellent pickup. Credit to Mike there.

Jordan Westburg, unable to practice at Orioles camp, had imaging done on elbow, source says

Coby Mayo getting ready to take grounders at third and seeing 15 cameras pointed directly at him

In spite of everything, the bullpen is still the Orioles’ existential threat.

I like Coby Mayo and will be rooting for him to succeed

Jordan Westburg rumors

Beast mode

Feels like we have a lot of examples that the O’s do a good job with pitching development which makes it so strange they’ve take so few bites of the apple in the draft. If over the last 7 years just a couple of 2 or 3 round picks had gone towards pitching they might have a good homegrown rotation

2 upper minors Orioles pitching prospects in the top 100

Never been more ready for Ben McDonald to tell me that the stuff you have in the bullpen before the game doesn't necessarily translate to the mound

Finally listened to this, thought Andy Kostka did a really good job recapping the offseason which was basically: Orioles said they were going to pursue an ace and failed: not good Bullpen: concerning Young players who struggled last year: injured Pete Alonso: awesome Craig Albernaz: goated

There is very little statistically that says that Jackson Kowar is good BUT he does have a good reliever name which is something you can’t teach Name wise you want your relievers to sound like they could be secondary characters in a Bourne movie This is part of why Keegan Akin stinks

Episode 421: Mission Acknowledged www.birdseyeviewbaltimore.com/episode-421-... We ask the important questions like: - Can Coby Mayo pitch? - Who will win the 2026 Jake Q. Fox Award? - Is MASN a vampire?

I listened the Podcast where they were saying this and they literally said “have you seen The Wire” It’s a fictional show! Baseball Players are not worried about getting stuck up by Omar Little

The Orioles are friendsmaxxing and culturemogging the AL East

There has to be a way to get Westy a customized pilow and bed.

Where does Dean Kremer rank in terms of best career for a Dodgers prospect that got traded for a superstar? Definitely higher than everyone the Dodgers traded for Mookie and also better than everyone they gave up in the Max Scherzer/ Trae Turner package.

Mike Elias at the Mayo and Mountcastle meeting

“Hey Ryan how well do you remember third base?”

The emotion that signing Bassitt invokes is annoyance It’s an annoying signing Not a bad signing, the team is better now than it was before but it’s annoying It feels like Elias is in a competition to fill the need in the rotation juuuuust enough to get to 86 wins

Mike Elias is embarrassing me in front of my friends

Going back in time to Nov. 1, 2025 to tell us all on here that we signed Pete Alonso for $150M and that our TOR additions are Shane Baz and Chris Bassit. Also that Grayson Rodriguez is an Angel. It would be like giving a Victorian child a hot Cheeto.

I’ve like Bassitt for a long time from a far but like cmon dude this is the kind of move people make jokes about the Orioles doing every year
