I won't laugh - in 2012 the Orioles lost to Sarasota Community College and found a way to win the Wild Card that year.
Granted they were light-years ahead of the Phillies in terms of talent, pitching and managing, but weirder things have happened....

The new "one foot in the batters box" rule should be entertaining.

Goddamn right. NO FUCKING PIZZAS HERE, GANG. Roger Goodell smiles upon the Cardinals' strict "Pizza is for showboats!" policy.
I wonder if Nightengale meant to write "pizzazz" here. That makes more sense, right? I hope this wasn't a typo. I hope this man truly believes that eating pizza is somehow a moral defect. WHOA HEY, LOOGIT MR. ATTENTION WHORE ASKING FOR PEPPERONI. In a way, this lack of pizza is probably for the best, because St. Louis-style pizza is a war crime.
[UPDATE: It was a typo. It now says pizzazz. But I still think Nightengale's silent war against pizza is a reality.]

The pace of the game needs to improve. I'm not sure if the one foot in the box rule will make much difference when the umpires refuse to enforce a rule that has been in the books for years. When the bases are unoccupied the pitcher has 12 SECONDS to throw a pitch. Does that EVER happen? Enforcing that rule would shave several minutes off the average game.

It figures after 8 strikeouts in 13 ABs against the Skankees, he goes 3 for 3 against my Orioles

Researching the Magic!
Didn't think it was worth starting a new thread for, so figured I'd ask here.
There's very little info on the MiLB website about Rookie League teams, so does anyone know if they're treated like a lot of HS/minor college sports where it's just walk up and watch? Seems like one of the Braves' Rookie League teams plays at Wide World of Sports, which is the closest MiLB action without driving an hour.
