I've really been encouraged this year by our progress

But there really aren’t any winners on our team. None.

Look at our team leaders: Huff, Mora, Jones, Markakis, and Roberts. Not a single one of those players has ever been a contributor on a winning team.

People don’t like buying into intangibles actually making a difference, but how can you break tough stretches and win games when you have never played in a meaningful season ever?

Check out this quote from former Seattle GM Bill Bavasi,

But had Bedard operated with the intensity and competitiveness we’d expected, we might now have a different opinion. I didn’t give enough weight to the fact that he’d never been on a club that had any expectations of winning. We had expectations. Bedard was a key to those expectations and he did not react well to that.

Obviously you can’t get rid of guys like Markakis and Jones, but you can do something with Hendrickson and Walker. The culture has to be changed now; saying that our prospects have been winners in the minors isn’t enough, they need the right message from day one in Baltimore.

My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

Sorry…. but Bill Bavasi is a world class idiot…. using him as an example of how to run a baseball team really dents your argument

The point is

That it’s very, very hard to take career losers, add talent, and produce winners; the culture is more important than many think.

Bill Bavasi

traded Adam Jones and Chris Tillman for Erik Bedard. I’m not exactly looking to him for advice on how to prepare a club to become a contender.

Welp, I was too lazy to find the remote during the end of the game

BUT the postgame is just pissing me off. Found it. Time to find something fun to watch.

Graham, out.
