Around SBN: Are The Orioles Bad Or Unlucky With Their Young Pitching?

Mt. Everidge has got around. What should the consensus nickname be?


I was reading the A's official site when I came across this

Mt. Everidge making a name for himself.

Did this possibly come from here?

AN comments on july 28th and Aug 4th

I did think of that nickname on July 28th,  but I can't say if anyone else used it in print prior to that. If no one can prove otherwise, I just may have to take the credit for that particular one Mr. Urban.

I have heard of a rumor that someone is doing a revamp of AN terms " time to update ANcillary terms?" and want to see what the accepted nickname should be for him. Feel free to throw out some new nicknames for the other rookies and see if we can get some consensus before the next update.

I have looked over the nicknames used for Everidge and tried to get most of them in this poll- There are a lot of good nicknames so I grouped a few together.

I mean the guy is infinitely better than I am at baseball, that being said the amount of love he gets around here and from people like Urban is completely disproportionate to his talent level.

i know everidge isn’t an all-star, or probably an acceptable everyday player, but some people seriously need to get over themselves here. say what you want about “replacement level slop” or “guy who doesn’t hit good enough for the big leagues” or whatever, but put it in perspective: he’s still playing baseball in the major leagues, and you aren’t.

Do you have a point at all, or no?

Because last I checked, I never claimed to be a better player than Everidge. In case you give a shit, my career ended my sophomore year in high school — however I still play soccer to this day, and barring a quad problem my first year in college I’d have probably been able to at least play a couple seasons in MLS. Big whoop.

So anyway, would you care to explain what my not being a big league baseball player has to do with Everidge not being a good hitter?

and i probably shouldn’t have grouped you in with DFA’s comment…i thought theirs was a bit much and kinda just added yours in, which wasn’t even that bad at second look. probably should have just posted the first one and not the second.

and yeah, that’s cool to know about your soccer career, i’m impressed. as a college athlete myself, i can respect that.

Should we hold off on saying our thoughts about Eveland? Giese? Casilla? Crosby?

They’re not good. They suck. What’s the point of making talent comparisons if we have to compare them to me? Sure, they’re all fantastic compared to me, but does anyone care? We compare players to league averages. To replacement level. Not me level.

And in case you’re going for the disrespectful angle, “guy who doesn’t hit good enough for the big leagues” isn’t exactly derogatory. I can’t think of a better way of saying he doesn’t hit good enough for the big leagues.

by danmerqury on Aug 25, 2009 10:08 AM PDT up reply actions  

Personally, I see him as a "Donnie Murphy" type of hitter

I think if he were a strict platoon player he could do ok as a major league hitter, but he’ll bat against RHP enough that he’ll put up meh numbers overall. Not that a right-handed platoon hitter who doesn’t field well and can’t run well is all that valuable, mind you. He’s basically “Nomar now” without ever being “Nomar then.”

Everidge is too fat to run the bases. I get tried of seeing supposedly big league players not caring enough about their job. He needs to lose some wait.

+1, jeffro

It’s fairly fashionable on AN to praise Fosse — which is fine, strictly from a “he’s our Foss” POV — and to criticize Krukow, but from where I sit (naked, atop the Sears tower) Krukow actually offers some insights every game (no I don’t like his stupid scribbling fans out or “sit down, meat”), is objective about calls and plays that go for/against the Giants, and doesn’t conduct the worst interviews you could possibly imagine. Fosse may be “our guy” but he’s pretty bad at his job, IMO.

Why is a color guy asking the questions?

I’ve always thought the color guy brought in expert info, not actually lead conversations, interviews, tell us what just happened that we just watched and was reported incorrectly during the first pass (“waaaay back, way back, oh never came close to the wall”). To me, you get a guy doing the pxp that doesn’t have to rely so much on Fosse, and he’s a lot better. Kuiper’s complete lack of knowledge about the game forces Fosse to fill in the gaps and/or talk way too much.
