Orioles Insider: Minor league game recaps -- Aug. 19
Tyler Townsend came off the DL for Frederick.
Steve Melewski: A note on Klein from Aberdeen
"If a pitcher can look good in a non-game situation, I'm told that O's third-round pick Dan Klein did this afternoon at Aberdeen. Klein threw a live batting practice session today. His fastball was in the low 90's (yes we have a BP velocity report) and he touched 95 once. The off-speed stuff showed some good movement as well."
Steve Melewski: No AFL for Machado
"[Manny] Machado, and O's fifth-round pick Conner Narron, who is currently playing in the Gulf League, are expected to join Aberdeen after the GCL season ends on August 28th. Aberdeen's season runs through September 5th." But he won't be going to the Arizona Fall League.
O's MacPhail likes what he sees in Keys - The Frederick News-Post Online
"I saw LJ have a good day and Rowell have a good day while I was here," he said. "You can't help but be impressed by (outfielder Kyle) Hudson's speed, and I saw (catcher Brian) Ward throw out a couple of guys."

Agreed
But I’d like to see him do something. Aberdeen is a great start, AFL would be a bit much but maybe it shows Machado what he’s aiming for.
He'll probably go to some instructional league I would assume?
Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
he's in Sarasota right now
with Connor Narron. They’ll both go to Aberdeen after the GCL season ends. Don’t know if Manny’ll get any game time in Sarasota.

i have no idea what even runs in the offseason
I’d assume everybody either goes home or to the Caribbean Series…which is why the current draft process is stupid. We lost the whole summer of playing time for our top prospect.

I tried to find people to go with but Merriweather was pretty much the deal breaker for everybody. I hate outdoor amphitheaters as well, but I would have put up with it for AF.
And I bought tickets less than 10 minutes after they went on sale and I still couldn’t get floor seats for their LA show. I didn’t realize they’ve become so big.

Using the previously mentioned Metallica, I saw them 3 times: MSG, Byrne/Continental/Izod arena, and Giants stadium. Both arenas blew away Giants stadium. Izod has the best sound system, MSG the best acoustics.

This isn’t as big a deal in baseball
The last couple of drafts there has been a great #1, but most years there isn’t that big a difference between the top picks to want to end last.
Football and Basketball is a lot different and the last few seasons Hockey has had some great #1

Me too
maybe tomorrow I’ll make a smoothie with the rest of these figs. I wonder how that would taste.
It'd probably be pretty good
but if they’re really good figs, a smoothie seems like kind of a waste.
They are really good figs
But in the summer we have more figs than we know what to do with. My stepdad picks figs every night when he gets home from work and he and my mom take them to work with them the next day and give them out to everyone because it’s way too many figs for just our family. I went over there for dinner last night and they gave me three brown lunch bags full of figs to give away to people because they both took today off. And they only stay good for a couple days, tops, so you gotta do something with them.
I just looked up figs and they look weird.

Pomegranates are by far my favorite fruit
and we’re getting very close to them being in season, I’m excited
Oh
Well I don’t really consider that a fruit (I know, I know) but I don’t mind tomato. I don’t like a lot of raw tomato at one time, though. My grandmother used to eat tomato sandwiches on white bread with mayo and salt and pepper. The idea of that kind of turns my stomach.
I love tomato sauce
But don’t like regular tomatos.

tomatos are so essential to so many things that I can't not like them.
But even on a hamburger, I can’t stand it if the tomato slice is really thick. Tomatos, by themselves, taste kind of funny. Also they smell kind of weird if you deal with a lot of them.

I like pomegranates
I hate “peeling” them, or whatever the term is to make them edible. I’ll stick with an orange.
I enjoy peeling them
I find a lot of simple cooking prep very relaxing. I could sit in front of the tv and cut vegetables for hours.
That's how I used to feel when I worked in a restaurant
It was almost therapeutic to be in the quiet kitchen getting food ready for the prep line, or sitting at the bar cutting limes and lemons and such.
Not really
I’m talking before we opened in the morning, not once the day got going. It was the entire atmosphere I liked, though. Always so quiet and calm when you know in a few hours it’ll be crazy.
totally agree
I used to work in a kitchen, and the calm immediately before and immediately after was a glorious feeling. Way better than having a beer after cutting the grass.

Before my parents moved there I'd never had a fig not in newton form
They bought the house from this Italian family and the dad planted a fig tree when they first moved there. Now it’s huge. It took me kind of awhile to get used to them, but now I really like them. And they are so good for you.

And my current ghetto food processor is not going to be part of my learning experience.

There is a ‘drink’ called a Stuntman. It’s a bizarro take on a shot of Tequila. Instead of licking the salt, doing the shot, and chasing it with the lime, you snort the salt, do the shot, and then squeeze the lime into your eye. The lime in the eye part hurts like all hell.

I used to have these neighbors that grew all sorts of weird peppers and stuff in these pots in front of their house. Not like, in a yard or anything, just on the sidewalk in front of their rowhouse. One night we were walking home from the bar and my roommate’s boyfriend grabs a couple of these small purple peppers and just pops them into his mouth. I’m not sure what kind of pepper they were, but they were bright purple, they looked like they were dipped in purple paint.
He chews them for a couple seconds and then all of the sudden he’s screaming. Screaming on the sidewalk in my neighborhood at 2 a.m. He runs to our house and we get inside and my roommate pours him this giant glass of water and he’s screaming, “It’s not helping! It’s making it worse!” So I got him a giant glass of milk (which is what we used to bring people at my restaurant if they ate a serrano and got upset) and he chugs it, then he takes the entire gallon of milk and starts chugging it.
When he finally calmed down he had blisters on his tongue.
hahaha
I usually dig spicy things, but there is some absolutely painful shit out there. Even on the wing spectrum there are some things that just taste like acid and are literally painful to eat.

Must be nice that he’s pretty much the main dude and doesn’t have to share money with a large ensemble cast. I remember back during the later seasons of Star Trek: TNG, all the major cast members were taking home $100K per episode.
Wasn't the Friends cast pulling in $1 million per episode by the end?
And that was for 30 minute episodes, which are actually 21 minutes.

I've had basically that situation happen to me
I had a migraine so severe I was vomiting, I had turned so pale the nurse said she’d never seen anyone that pale who hadn’t lost a lot of blood, and I could not walk. I was taken to the hospital where they hooked me to an IV, had me lay there starving for 5 hours until I finally fell asleep, then when I woke up the migraine was gone. So then they took me for a CAT scan and, surprise surprise, now that it was gone, the CAT scan showed nothing. Of course it took them another couple of hours to determine that, so it was like 3 AM when I got home (it was around 7 PM when I got to the hospital).
I’ve also once had a migraine for 3 straight days before. It WOULD NOT go away. I basically slept, woke up to eat what I could, and then went back to sleep for those 3 days. Each time I woke up the migraine was still there.

Has anyone here ever taken yoga classes on a regular basis?
I’ve thought about trying it but no absolutely nothing about it
my fiance does
and has been trying to get me to join for years. I am literally the least flexible person in the world though and I think it would be incredibly painful for me.
Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
My flexibility is appalling
I’m thinking it could really help, I’m just debating if i’d actually like it and if its worth the time.
I don't know what your situation is
but whenever I drop my fiance off there are about 10 hot chicks in every class and 2 guys. Just saying…
Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
I do yoga
I used to go to yoga twice a week at my gym and I loved it. When I first started I felt like I would never be able to do it correctly, but after a few months my flexibility had improved drastically, plus it made my posture better and was much more stress reducing than any other workout I’ve done.
I had to cancel my gym membership for financial reasons but I found a really good yoga dvd that is fully customizable, you can do their canned sessions or pick every individual pose you want. I was doing it three or four times a week at home but got out of the habit about a month ago. I should really start again.
I recommend it though, especially if you find a class with an instructor that you really like and whose workouts match up with what you’re trying to do. We had this old guy fill in for us a couple times in my class and he was way into the spiritual side of things and it drove me bananas.
Yeah, i have no interest in the mental side of it
I really want to get more flexible for soccer, and it seems like a good complement to the weightlifting i’ve been doing recently.
That's why I preferred going to the gym
I went to a few classes with a friend of mine at a yoga studio and it was too silly for me. My class at the gym was probably about 1/3 guys, including this one guy who looked like a body builder, and I couldn’t believe how flexible he seemed since you just think of those guys hulking around all the time.
It depresses me
that with all the hard work you do on this site, you can’t afford a gym membership. It seems unjust.

I cant remember what the voltage was exactly
but it was definitely measured in kV. I was modifying a piece of lab equipment that involved exposing the high voltage source in a manner that they very specifically tell you not to do. With the amount of wires around and liquid being sprayed into the machine, charge was constantly building up in random areas and then usually discharged into my hand.
