[Former Orioles GM (Charles)]

The Orioles GM Charles has issued the following statement in response to the Giants/Brewers podcast:

“We within the Orioles organization respect the thoughts and opinions of other GMs within this league and would never verbally and publicly make a critical and negative statement in response to an opinion given by a GM, especially during a podcast. Podcasts are a great part of this league and a testimony to the care that GMs within this league have with regards to the league as a whole and should be protected at all costs. I would never make a statement that could negatively effect the free speech that our GMs hold and express in the form of these fantastic podcasts, especially in response to a comment made by either Rob or Hollar whose podcasts are the epitome of quality and a real present to the entire league. We are shocked and offended by the inclusion of a statement never made in this podcast, though the action will be forgiven in this instance. All the best to our GMs in anticipation of the new season!”

[Nationals GM (Preston - Old)]

Gotta love the globetrotting league.

[Pirates GM (Hollar)]

I'm seven minutes into this and have already laughed out loud multiple times. Love y'all.

[Rays GM (Donavan)]

Wow, bold prediction in the NL West, keeping backing yourself Griffin.

And Kershaw trade was covered as an after-thought, must have been a balanced trade

[Pirates GM (Hollar)]

I wish to launch a vendetta. Do I simply post this message, or is there a form I have to fill out?

[Rockies GM (Dan)]

Eh, not a super bold prediction. My program has had the odds continue to tighten as the lineups and rotations sort themselves out in the projections and preseason injuries take their toll.

Right now, while both the Giants and I both have over a 96% at the playoffs, I've only got a 56% at the division, whereas it puts Griffin at 40%. There's also a possibility it overvalues relief pitching and it can't compensate for Griffin's multifaceted strategy
