Happy Monday, Camden Chatters! Today is the day. The Maryland Stadium Authority and Board of Public Works will both meet today to vote on the updated lease agreement between the Orioles and the state of Maryland. After a long, drawn-out saga over this lease, it seems that the end is finally in sight.
Of course, I won’t count any chickens before they hatch. We’ve been given assurances before that a deal was either done or imminent and we know how that worked out. But I have the feeling that the third time is the charm. I’m feeling pretty good about the idea that by this evening the Orioles will be locked into a lease in Baltimore for 15-30 more years.
