Saturday Bird Droppings: Where everyone waits on Ohtani

Related Topics: Louis Daguerre

Hello, friends.

There are now 130 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2018. Eventually, something will happen, although for now there is nothing happening, supposedly because everyone is waiting to find out the status of Japanese phenom Shohei Ohtani. They’re supposed to find out on Monday.

Even if there wasn’t the Ohtani uncertainty holding up the market, I wouldn’t expect a lot of activity anyway. You know how not a whole lot gets done at your work in the week before Thanksgiving, unless you work somewhere in the Thanksgiving food staple supply chain? That’s true in the baseball world too, especially with players sometimes being completely off the grid for a while.
