Did anyone really expect him to sign before the deadline?

Must be a slow news day.

Baltimore is Baltimore. That's kind of what I know. - Manny Machado, 6/7/10

I just post what I find, people.

And yeah, today is the very definition of a slow news day.

And if you find this less than exciting...

wait until my feature later this month on the guy who grows the sod used at OPaCY.

And I’m not even kidding.

various methods of getting whippersnappers off your respective lawns?

I've thought about that

especially with the weather this year. I might just e-mail the PR people at the O’s this week…

She's got a job to do

and that’s report Orioles news, whether there is any or not. Been there, done that with local government, and it’s not fun. I don’t blame her at all.

Saw Christian Colon at the Keys game yesterday night

At one point, he made a great diving stop to his right, got up and fired to 2nd to get the lead runner. He also made an error earlier in the game, but I don’t recall the play precisely (Beer is wonderful btw!). I seem to recall him bobbling a routine grounder and throwing late to 1st after some nice hustle by the baserunner, Hoes I believe. What impressed me though, was that Colon made a point to walk over to the pitcher and apologize for his gaffe that allowing the inning to continue. That showed some leadership to me.

Anyone know how Colon's deal got done so quickly?

Boras client, picked immediately after Machado, and plays the same position. Presumably his 2.8M bonus was over-slot. Nothing about the situation suggests why he should have signed before Machado.
