Welcome to the Baltimore Orioles Rain Delay Chatroom! |
 |
SamPer_Fi:
Nick, thank you for coming in. I wanted to talk to you about our club
roster, and your position on it. |
|
MarkyMarkakis:
thank you coach i worked really hard to make the team |
|
SamPer_Fi:
Yeah, well, our outfield is pretty crowded already, with Matos, Gibbons, Corey
Patterson, and we've got Conine and Millar who can both play out there. |
|
SamPer_Fi:
You're the best prospect we've had in years, and the first one since like Mike
Mussina who actually can play baseball when he steps over the baseline here and it isn't
some kind of fucked up reverse Field of Dreams for suckers. |
|
SamPer_Fi:
I remember seeing Jeffrey Hammonds turn into a pile of snakes.
anyway |
|
SamPer_Fi:
You're the best prospect we've had in years, so we want to get you out onto
the field as soon as possible. |
|
SamPer_Fi:
We don't want you to get injured so young, though, so we're trying to keep you
on the bench in your package, making sure ball boys are walking beside you holding pillows
at all times, and keeping you from getting wet. |
|
MarkyMarkakis:
i just want us to win the ball games, sir |
|
SamPer_Fi:
But that's just it, we're the Orioles. We stop winning ball games in
June. We have to completely eat it in the second half. It's obligatory. |
|
SamPer_Fi:
At the same time you're SO GOOD OMG so we want you playing. |
|
MarkyMarkakis:
what're you trying to say, coach? |
|
SamPer_Fi:
What I'm saying is that we want to have Markakis and eat it, too. |
|
MarkyMarkakis:
... |

SamPer_Fi:

|
SamPer_Fi:
Dammit kid, go wait outside on the field. I'll talk it over with the
staff and see what we're going to do. |
|
MarkyMarkakis:
okay i guess |

Hours pass. |
|
SamPer_Fi:
Well, what do you think we should do? |
|
MisterCrowley:
I think we should let him start. If we win all of our games up until the
end of May we won't HAVE to win any more games during the season! |
|
SamPer_Fi:
You're right, Tom Willis! Nick Markakis is too good to waste on the
Ottawa Lynx, or the Frederick Keys, or whatever negative four-A team we're gonna put him
o- |
|
MisterCrowley:
Oh no! |
|
SamPer_Fi:
what |
|
MarkyMarkakis:

MisterCrowley:

|
SamPer_Fi:
