Hello, friends.
There are now 78 days remaining until the next scheduled Orioles game. Pitchers and catchers are set to report to Sarasota to begin spring training in a month and two days. Earlier this week, the commissioner reportedly sent a memo to teams to plan for an on-time beginning to spring training and the regular season.
I bring tidings today of at least one apparent believer in the future of the Orioles. In an MLB column posted yesterday with predictions of World Series matchups for the next ten years, the Orioles are mentioned as predicted champions in 2027, triumphing over another orange and black team, the Giants.
