Hello, friends.
This week’s lack of movement towards a resolution of the ownership-imposed lockout of MLB players has made counting down to the next Orioles game feel pointless. With that in mind, there are two months and three days remaining until the next scheduled Norfolk Tides game, which we can all hope will have Grayson Rodriguez throwing pitches to Adley Rutschman. That might even be more fun than Orioles Opening Day, if we’re being honest.
Even if the lockout had never entered our lives, it was always looking like the early part of the minor league season would have way more excitement than the MLB-level Orioles.
