I think the question is actually still lead off... If the question is Machado one, who two, or who one, Machado two... I prefer option two. Kim or Reimold would be my bets. Really don't like the Alvarez signing. Think it bumps Rickerd out of the line up, so that hurts our on base majorly. Now either Alvarez or Trumbo is playing RF regularly, that is a pain. Just not sure what it does for us. Our goals this if season were on base... So we signed Alvarez, Trumbo and resigned Davis? K. K. More k. Kim is the line bright spot in the entire line up on that front and he's never done it in a majors!

100% the same. I'm not a going out person ... so my O's season tix are my one reprieve. Nothing like a night at the yard, ballgame, friends, a few drinks, etc... But I just do not (cannot) let it consume me anymore...

I feel you Max, but feel like NFL has been there longer already. At OPSCY at least I can still bring in my own food and drink, the TV games aren't filled with beer and Viagra ads, and Cespedes and his money showing off is more exception. I watch MLB press conferences and see guys in uniforms still, or hoodies. I watch other sports and see custom fit suits and jewelry. I love the sports, hate the systems... My solution was giving up sports media (ESPN) and especially sports radio where we can listen to people debate these morons and their absurd actions 24/7.

Most later primaries are. All tonight are proportional for candidates that top certain percentages. Winner take all didn't start for another few weeks.

Rubio totally still in it... First, all delegates today are proportional, so he's getting a lot and eating into Trump's ability to win the required 1270. More important, though, CNN just showed that without Kasich in the race, Rubio would have topped Trump in at least VA and maybe elsewhere. Hell, in VA, Rubio won most liberal and moderate districts... That's the guy they want.

He's less evil in terms of damage to party long term (though, at this point, the damage is done... If Donald doesn't get the nomination, he'll trash the party). But Cruz is more evil in his actual views and pushing party further towards Tea Party. Establishment is trying to rein that in... They can't keep feeding it

Except, Cruz is anti establishment, has run anti establishment, and most moderate GOPers will reject him as much as Trump. He'll lose a general as bad or worse... While Trump might claim a handful of moderates, Cruz will literally lose the worst case in history on popular vote.

Don't think what? Rubio has a chance? Fair. But brokered convention seems too possible and end of party with either candidate seems possible too. Watching Cruz give his sorry now... Nauseating. He's nearly as egotistical as Trump. And his views are almost scarier. Listening to him your think we're in a puritanical society and he's our holy father... Ugh.

By pros do you mean politicians or news media? I think some of the big media have trouble doing it with the backlash they get for "bias." Comedians get less pushback. Good news of the night so far... Trump is winning a lot of states on Super Tuesday, but he's lost a few to Cruz and is in virtual ties (if leading) in a few with Rubio. I think we're honeslty on our way to a brokered convention. I have a feeling no one gets the needed delegates. This could likely kill Trump's chances... and if they nominate Cruz, they will lose the general election... they could even destroy the entire party (honestly, I don't think the party can survive no matter what happens at this point). Recent polls continue to show Hillary gaining on Trump by large margins. Losing to Rubio. Sanders crushes all in a general.

Three thoughts: 1. Rating hardly changed, we've been top 25 always and top five among major cities forever... 2. The sooner is the last year has been crazy but very much bucking a trend the other direction, even if you add in police redistribution of crime stats... 3. The violence still overwhelmingly is happening in specific locations among specific populations. So again, what's really changed?

I was against it early, but an coming around. He's still young and plays good D. He's not an obp guy, but I'd settle. Hell, the Reds seem so desperate to dump him, I think he's cost almost nothing.

Tillman scratched. "Core muscle injury" whatever that means. Scarier part, the words MRI have already been mentioned if soreness didn't fade quickly. "If" the staff is healthy and Tillman returns to form...

Hillary wins by 50 points in South Carolina... And that about does it unless some indictment destroys her. Meanwhile, great pieces from the Times and Post that analyze the failures of the establishment to even be able to create a strategy to tackle Trump... And how it will legitimately destroy the party. I'm not disappointed.

Trump got obliterated last night. Then Christie endorses him today? Ugh.

Exact opposite view here. Leaked? Maybe, but how different from telling sources any other time which happens every deal every day? And as Spen said, with no follow up by league or Fowler, which there won't be, what's there to fire someone for?

Don't disagree it's a three man race, but if you're going to put the other two on the stage...

Curious what they think the O's did, because never saw the O's actually confirm in any way more than most teams do via "sources say"...

Rubio would also be an obvious pick because he is not running for his Senate seat so he'll need a job. But not sure if Marco would take it. Bernie wouldn't take Warren; need her in Senate and needs a moderate, much like Trump. This debate has been entertaining. Rubio is really aiming at Trump. But sad they are leaving Kasich and Carson out, literally not in camera...

Well, if both Sanders and Rubio stay in to the end, we could see brokered... Sanders is going to stay in power his promise, but could fade and just be pushing his message. Rubio could get clobbered, but there's enough hope that the establishment will rise again and he wants to be that guy... Especially trying to gobble up other delegates. It's a cluster.

I am the young, not GOP. But I give many people too much credit.

If Trump stays in, people will not stay home.

There are so many Trump contradictions, in terms of good his appeal and voter base. He truly is running an old 1940s cult of personality campaign. The contradiction of the day: people voting for him are the same ones calling Obama a dictator, tyrant, King, etc... And yet they are supporting a guy who has made clear hell do whatever he wants regardless of law, morality, and especially regardless of others opinions. So, either they're morons or they're intellectually dishonest hypocrites. "I hate tyranny unless it works for me" seems the most likely, but least appealing. Anyways, he's polling -80% among Latinos and equally or worse with black voters. No chance in a general election against either dem.

I didn't mean the physical itself hurt, but just that an agreement in principle is not a lock in without the physical. But either way, just silly.

The other other shoe. So, he took a big pay cut and reduction in contract length? Crav: short answer is our physical, which saves us other time, gave him the time to go negotiate elsewhere. But his choice still didn't make sense to me.
