Look's like this season is going into overtime...
News- Chris Davis gets a 25-day suspension. To be honest this is not a big deal to me. Everyone does it, did it and eventually they learn their lesson. I can understand the view point of being frustrated and not persistent enough with yourself to the point where you turn to drugs to make you play better. At the beginning of this year, everyone expected Davis to be as stellar as he was last year. But for some reason he just couldn't find that rhythm again. Along with the pressure of sportscasters and critics it forced him to turn to drugs (amphetamine in this case which is used for focus). This should NOT change the way Baltimore is viewed though. The same thing happened to the yankees, but they are still one of the top sports fan bases ever. You should not just focus on one player because this didn't really effect the team or the number of wins if they didn't have Davis. Davis would always hit where there was already a lead (mostly). Baseball is not a one man show. You should look to the good before you look to the bad. This was not steroid use.
The Orioles have clenched the American League East title for the first time since 1997. Yes, there was 2012 but the Orioles did not get the title but won the wildcard. Time to wipe the dust off my Orioles playoff shirt and wear it with pride!
Adam Jones is easily declared the best player in Major League Baseball. Pieing both fellow teammate,Nick Markakis and a fan. He also found ways to include everyone in this celebration- batgirls and batboys, fans, coaches, players and managers.
To all the people who declared the Orioles a last place team, I hope you did your 2015 projections in pencil...
