Thursday Bird Droppings: Where we learn anew that Manny Machado is really good

Manny Machado is really good, which isn't news to anyone, but Buck Showalter suggests that one member of the Orioles could don a disguise, which is. Also: the strange Chris/Khris Davis confluence, and other tidbits.

There are now 11 days until Orioles Opening Day. The number was worn most recently by Robert Andino, slayer of the 2011 Boston Red Sox, and most famously in the annals of the O's by Doug DeCinces. Did you know that DeCinces came in third in the AL MVP voting in 1982? Unfortunately, that was the year after he left the Orioles, so it didn't do the O's much good.
