And it gives me an excuse to post this video again!

They’re so far behind their divisional opposition that I don’t know much it will help, but I think this is a good hire for the Orioles. It’s not exactly unjust that Torre took the team Showalter built to 4 World Championships, because Showalter did (gloriously) screw up the biggest game of his career at least as egregiously as Grady Little screwed up Game 7 in 2003, using completely gassed starters for several high-leverage innings while only getting 2/3s of an inning out of his brilliant relievers. But he did have a large role in building that team, and his professionalism and ability to judge and motivate young talent will be real assets for Baltimore. He may not be the manager you want to take your team over the top but….that’s obviously not an issue here.

In news more relevant to the pennant race, getting Oswalt makes up for Amaro’s strange decision to trade Lee, and I’d definitely bet on them to make the postseason from behind once again.
