Sunday Bird Droppings: Where it’s the last weekend with no baseball

It’s Sunday, Camden Chatters! Does it seem to anyone else that every Sunday is rainy and dreary? At least today won’t be terribly cold.

It’s now just 46 days until Opening Day. The number 46 was the number worn by longtime Oriole player, broadcaster, and member of the front office Mike Flanagan. Flanny played for the Orioles from 1975-87 and again from 1991-92. At the time of Flanagan’s tragic death in 2011, Jeremy Guthrie was wearing number 46. No Oriole has worn it since.

In happier news, we are now just two days from pitchers and catchers reporting for spring training.
