Hello, friends.
There are now two months and two weeks remaining until the next scheduled Orioles game, which is Opening Day. Pitchers and catchers are now scheduled to report in less than one month. However, it is looking unlikely that spring training is going to start on time due to the ongoing ownership lockout of MLB players.
The past weekend brought another one of the days that will have to pass for exciting for as long as the Orioles are in rebuilding mode. The continuing O’s investment in international talent IS exciting, just not in an instant gratification kind of way, or even necessarily a near-future gratification way.
