The Orioles are just a shitty franchise. They don't successfully develop enough home-grown talent, and on the free agents they do acquire they miss big time (Miguel Tejada).

andy macphail is working his magic . . 2 years from now the Os are gonna be nasty. (and miggy led this team for years, earned his salary while here then got traded for young talent).

difference between the Os now and 2 years ago is that angelos finally stopped trying to play GM and hired a very respected knowledgable guy to make the decisions. the result? farm system went from dead last to 13th overall, they have the no. 1 prospect in matt weiter, markakis and b-rob signed up (keeping home grown talent), made their first japanesse acquisition in a pitcher who has sick command from what is being reported, got cubs former no 1 prospect, got seattles no 2 prospect last year, and drafted and signed one of the best pitchers in this past draft.

^^ man, wish i was writing all this stuff about how the skins are making all the right moves . . baseball is a different breed though.

go O's baby!! yeah!!

ps - we dis well against the yanks last year and beaned arod 3 times!
