These are the words of Leo Mazzone, regarding his two-year prison sentence in Baltimore. Lemme start this blog by saying that I know Leo Mazzone and I got to know him a bit back when he was the Braves...
The Baltimore Orioles can try to silence their critics today and attempt to ban the free speech of all of their many disgruntled customers and fans from posting angry diatribes on message boards like WNST on the internet, but...
In a move that was only rumored by our Drew Forrester last week, the New York Yankees became the "final" bidder for the services of Mt. St. Joe grad Mark Teixeira, inking the first baseman to an 8-year, $170...
But where? Where will Mark Teixeira sign today (if indeed, today is the day). Again, this has been the most following story since Palcyznski...
ESPN's Buster Olney says today is the day. Apparently the Orioles are still dangling seven years...
Who knows whether it's posturing or business or an actual decision, but Arte Moreno and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim have apparently pulled their eight-year offer to Mark Teixeira. The beat goes on and we're now 72 hours...
Want the craziest true story I’ve heard in Dallas in my first 24 hours? Apparently, I missed running into Mark Teixeira and Scott Boras in the lobby of the Ravens team hotel here in “Big D” by 15 hours....
Not a big surprise here -- I've been a skeptic all along because I believe Mark Teixeira and his agent Scott Boras aren't foolish enough to sign with Peter Angelos and the Orioles -- but ESPN's Buster Olney is...
Because this saga regarding Mark Teixeira and the Orioles and the Red Sox and the Nationals and the Angels has dragged on far too long it’s given me way too much time to think about it. And it’s really...
This whole "Mark Teixeira will be attending the Ravens game today as a guest of Peter Angelos" rumor has taken on a whole strange life of its own in the modern day news cycle. Here's the deal: Roy Firestone...
With all due respect to my colleague Drew Forrester, I have a different “conspiracy” theory on the Mark Teixeira chronicles that unfolded in Las Vegas last week and look like they’ll drag on for a few more days. Here’s...
Our old NFL draftnik and historian Dennis Koulatsos joins Nestor for an annual evaluation of the Ravens' draft class and needs heading into the spring.
The big bat of Gunnar Henderson, a solid effort by Grayson Rodriguez and a booted ball by Anthony Volpe added up to an Orioles victory to begin the Yankees series with a 2-0 win. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the week ahead and the possibility of adding John Means and Kyle Bradish back into the rotation.
Of course we know the Baltimore Ravens don't have to play this weekend. But what if they did? Luke Jones and Nestor assess the spring additions and subtractions and how the Ravens' draft picks will find playing time and opportunities in camp.
You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll learn. Watch "No One Listens; Everyone Hears" – The Story of Baltimore Positive, Nestor Aparicio & WNST" here. A documentary film narrated by Kyf Brewer, Gina Schock, Mickey Cucchiella, Mike Brilhart, John Allen, Ray Bachman and Bill Cole. Special and eternal thanks to Gregg Landry and Blue Rock Productions for the spiritual guidance and documentary awesomeness on this project. Nestor and his family and partners would like to thank every one of you for four decades of support of WNST, our sponsors and advertisers who allow us to do this Baltimore Positive thing.
It's been a long time since we've anticipated an April home series like this one. The Orioles are reeling after losing their closer and a pair of bad beats at the hands of the Oakland Athletics at Camden Yards this weekend. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss how the Birds will regroup for four games with the Yankees in a budding AL East rivalry.
With so much focus on the flaring needs on the offensive line, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the wisdom and ideology behind the Ravens' selection of cornerback Nate Wiggins in the first round and how the franchise will ultimately protect Lamar Jackson and stoke the running game.
