Lately, our feedback has been exclusively Matt Wieters-centric. I've gotten e-mails about how we should handle his ascension to the big leagues. We've gotten comments about how we should set up a fake Twitter account for him, and follow his exploits on a minute-by-minute basis as he goes 0-for-4 and occasionally triples. My Dad calls me every couple of days to ask me how good I think Wieters is, because Wieters could go to the bathroom, put it in a McDonald's bag, and show it on television and my Dad would call me to ask me how awesome I thought it was.

This is my humble attempt to transfer the ethereal glory of the hard-swinging, hard-loving Orioles catching prospect who hit .999 in Single-A and redefined Double-A simply by being there.

This morning's Dugout is after the jump.

Mark Teixeira's debut for the New York Yankees was an 0-for-4 affair that was blamed on the unusually harsh Baltimore Orioles fans that felt betrayed by the guy who spent 8 years saying he wanted to play in Baltimore, then went to play directly AGAINST Baltimore for like 200 dollars more a year.

We're a month and a half into the season now, but Teixeira is still playing every game like Prop Joe is in his ear, yelling about how he is greedy and low, in the Dickensian sense. When will he snap out of it? No, I'm asking you. He's on my fantasy team and I'm in 20th place in an 18-team league.

Tonight's Dugout is after the jump.
