ColumnNes: My letter to Orioles President Catie Griggs

Nestor Aparicio

This month, I’ve had many Orioles fans ask me on the streets of Baltimore why David Rubenstein, a full year into his new ownership and trying to spread a different image from Peter Angelos with a stunt like this bobblehead promotion this weekend, would continue to deny me legitimate press credentials after 40 years of covering Baltimore sports. So, I wrote this letter to new President Catie Griggs a month ago, a week before Opening Day:

Can Sugano pitch in with a quality start every fifth day?

Baltimore Positive

In the aftermath of the best Orioles’ start of the year on the hill, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss any hope of consistent Orioles’ prosperity in the starting rotation after a much-welcomed strong seven-inning effort from Tomoyuki Sugano on Thursday night.

David Rubenstein Orioles owner

Dear David Rubenstein: I really believed things were going to be different with “The Next Chapter” of Orioles history – but I was wrong so far

Nestor Aparicio

I’m still “under review” and denied media credentials. You’re still under review by every fan of the Baltimore Orioles and every citizen who chipped in $600 million toward your $1.725 billion asset. Be a better person and a better baseball owner than Peter Angelos. Be the noise for truth, accountability and decency. Make “The Next Chapter” a truly inclusive one, David.

Dear Steve Bisciotti: Are you Tuckered out on that zero-tolerance policy?

Nestor Aparicio

Methinks we’re kinda getting to the point where we’ll soon hear from “your people” in a two-sentence press release on the team website about the future of the kicking department of the Baltimore Ravens. Probably after lunch on Friday, the way all the cowards in your industry drop the news they want to bury. Not-so-bold prediction: Justin Tucker has kicked his last kick for your franchise.

Dear Steve Bisciotti: Ask Chad Steele what he thinks I said about Sage so I can tell Ravens fans why I was really exterminated

Nestor Aparicio

“What did do you do wrong, Nestor?” “Why would the Ravens throw you out?” “Why are you the only one in the local media whom they’ve thrown out?” “Why have they treated you this way?” “WHAT DID YOU DO WRONG!?!” I am fed up with these questions from Baltimore sports fans so I wrote to the owner because these questions are his to answer. Letters to John Harbaugh and Eric DeCosta are also coming soon.

Making sense of Ravens’ ethics and zero tolerance after another Liars’ Luncheon while Tucker remains on roster

Baltimore Positive

The annual April fools’ ruse that is the Baltimore Ravens’ pre-draft luncheon – aka “The Liars’ Luncheon” – provided a few insights into Mark Andrews and no surprises on the roster needs.

Luke Jones and Nestor go through the lies and truths of the gathering of selected media for a league-mandated buffet of comedy and eras. And delicious ravioli.

Lemme tell you how proud I am of Coach Orlando “Bino” Ranson

Baltimore Positive

They finally sat down at Costas Inn to talk about it 36 years later…

No need for a Liars’ Luncheon when we break down Ravens draft needs here

Baltimore Positive

It was nearly three decades ago when Nestor dubbed the Baltimore Ravens’ Pre-Draft Press Conference “The Liars’ Luncheon.” So, it’s fitting that Luke Jones joins him here for straights truths about the Eric DeCosta “process” that began with Ozzie Newsome and will deftly navigate next weekend’s NFL Draft with owner Steve Bisciotti asking hard questions of his football people. The Ravens do this better than anyone.

Only the bats can save Orioles’ season

Baltimore Positive

The on-again, off-again bats of the young Baltimore Orioles lineup has been even more disappointing than the injured and patchwork pitching staff. After a bullpen meltdown against Toronto, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Orioles’ mostly youthful bats needing to save season with clutch hits to cover for the pitching that doesn’t figure to improve much in the coming weeks.

The power of youth sports to bring Baltimore together
