I understand, now.

He’s bigger than The Mountain.

I was here when The Ironman forever retired the number 8.

I was here when we traded Jonesy and Bronze Jesus and Darren O’fuckinDay. Gausman… Tillman… Bundy. Flats…

And through it all, I miss Felix Bautista the most of all those beautiful bastards we’ve lost…

What an impact.

103.4 mph.

A splitter that literally changes the gravity equations Einstein scribbled on the backs of his score cards…

An elite pitcher.

Palmer… Mussina… Bautista.

Brooks… Manny… Gunnar.

Frank… Jonesy… Mullins… (Bradfield???)

A new dynasty is at hand.

I’ve never missed a ball player as much as I miss Felix Bautista in the end of this 2023 baseball season…

He’s the Infinite Mass at the center of it all. We’re gonna make it anyways, but damn… Bautista was such a nice grenade to throw at a team… Truly miss the dude. He Got Us Here!! Hate to do it without him, but got no choice. And there’s a lot of good years of elite baseball ahead of the Orioles that Bautista will enjoy (and ya know damn well: I will too)

I fucking love this goddamn baseball team!!!

Go O’s!
