God bless the redass. The Ray's fan is probably totally pissed.

He is.

One dinger, and all is forgiven. Besides, the fan's old enough to forget about it within half an hour.

Jose Martinez for Pham. Get it done Walt!

Bob Tewksbury was hired as the Cubs' "mental skills coordinator."

Pham takes him to school in that thread. Fun stuff!

Orioles designated INF Breyvic Valera for assignment.
The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Austin Brice. Valera has batted .216/.286/.243 across 37 games in the majors over the last two years for three different teams.
Jan 4 - 5:26 PM

In discussing bench options, Mozeliak said, “The one I wouldn’t lose sight of is Breyvic, from an offensive standpoint. He is a switch hitter. He really can play anywhere. I’m not saying he plays it well but he can stand there for a little bit. If you’re looking at a 25th man. . . if there’s a lefthanded bat, what could it be? Well, the one guy internally I feel like we overlook is Breyvic.”

Mozeliak indicated he would rather go with someone like Valera as an extra man than sign a lefthanded hitter from outside the organization.

“It’s tough,” said Mozeliak. “Where would we really use it? It becomes almost the 25th man. I don’t think closing doors is ever a great strategy but it does seem like a tougher fit.”

I hope Mo's not setting the bar too high.

I’da thought Eck would’ve changed his profile pic before that post.

OTOH you aren’t going to find a higher career highlight for Eck than the WS MVP trophy.
