Sometimes I really wonder how MLB figures it out, in terms of scheduling and figuring out when postponed games will be made up.

ORIOLES RECORD (as of July 4th): 47-35, 1st place.

on Manny Machado's suspension (I know this is old news, but the wound is still fresh):
I thought it was awesome, I mean the Royals pitchers are known for that kind of thing which is really no match for Machado's Miami-bred personality (Miami is a pretty crazy city isn't it?). Interesting enough, Yordano Vertura actually got suspended for more games than Machado. But that is because he threw a 99 mile per hour fast ball. That's pretty dangerous.

Upcoming Posts, hopefully for this week:
The fall and setback of major teams: Yankees, and others
Orioles Merchandise/Giveaways-what you get and what they are
More Where Are They Now?, checking in with former Oriole players

Upcoming Events:
Home Run Derby / All-Star Game
Monday, July 11th / Tuesday, July 12th

Petco Park
San Diego, California

Interesting enough they already know where the All-Star Games will be played in 2017 (Miami Marlins // Marlins Park) and 2018 (Washington Nationals // Nationals Park). So this must be some pretty serious business.

Remember to Vote Orange for the 2016 All-Star Game!
