It’s pathetic considering what $1.2 billion could do in Maryland or just in areas within blocks of Camden Yards but instead it’s going to the Angelos family & friends.

The friend is a marine biologist who works on whales in Seattle and apparently JP Crawford is really into whales and wants to go whale watching.

Travis Demeritte finally getting a start for the Braves after being traded in and out of their org a couple times. Seems like strictly an AAAA player but he can't do much worse than Dickerson or Rosario or lately Duvall (who's out now tending to a family matter) have been.

bewbies posted:man how are the braves so bad? few things, mostly that they were basically the definition of mediocre last year till they hit august, then suddenly the bullpen was untouchable and every bit player started making major contributions. not really things to depend on at the best of times, but has really burned them this year, when instead it's like each game features a different player loving up to piss away a win. also they are built around homers so not only does it harm them pretty substantially, it also means it's way harder to disguise their lovely outfield defense. between Acuña not being 100% quite yet and Rosario's eye problems they are stuck running Duvall out there every day plus two of Ozuna, Demeritte, and Heredia. (really wondering what it means for Drew Waters that they're not giving him some innings/ABs during this time, he's already on the 40-man.) even apart from that every regular seems to be in some degree of funk. anyway other than Waters any offensive prospects are at least a year, year and a half away, so they're kinda just in a holding pattern to see if they can survive long enough to get hot again. KICK BAMA KICK posted:As I understand it the offensive inputs and expectations aren't bad, but the outputs don't match; the outfield defense is genuinely abysmal and the bullpen is not getting what they need out of anyone but Jansen really (and really missing Luke Jackson, for real). Rotation is also a mixed bag of over- and under-performance. also Matzek probably used up his arm last year, wonder if we'll ever see him back to anything the starters I think have been generally pretty solid, April Charlie Morton aside, but when that's only keeping you competitive the first 5-6 innings something else has to come through especially when you are always going to lose in stupid extras
