City Council candidates speak at public forum BY GIANNA DECARLO

EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM

On Thursday, October 8, the six men running for the 1st district council seat gathered for a forum at Thames Street Park in Fell’s Point. Each candidate was given ten minutes to speak and then the audience was allowed to ask questions. The event’s organizers gave the candidates a list of pre-arranged topics to discuss, such as zoning and transportation mitigation. The first to speak was Mark Parker, a pastor from Highlandtown. Parker spoke about the importance of civic engagement and the powers citizens have when they band together. “We have an opportunity to make it right, especially if we’re all involved in the conversation,” he said.

Stabbing at Jimmy’s Seafood injures 5 by GIANNA DECARLO EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM

Four people were stabbed during an altercation at Jimmy’s Famous Seafood, a restaurant at 526 Holabird Ave. in Dundalk, on Friday, October 9. Allegedly, the fight broke out at approximately 1:30 a.m. after the suspect sexually assaulted a woman on the second floor of the restaurant. “The suspect groped a female employee or patron of the business. Other employees and patrons jumped in between. The suspect pulled out a knife and cut several individuals,” said T.J. Smith, the Director of Media Relations for the Baltimore police. The victims were all males between the ages of 22 and 29 and sustained injuries to the face and torso. According to witnesses, one of the victims was a bartender at Jimmy’s. A woman was hit in the face as well. The suspect fled the scene shortly after the stabbings.

The victims were transported to a hospital where their injuries were determined to be non-life threatening. Police kept patrons inside the establishment for hours as they interviewed potential witnesses and conducted the investigation. Police are using security footage from inside and outside the location to pinpoint the suspect. Investigators have not made an arrest yet, but they believe they are close to identifying the suspect. Those with any information are to contact the police at 410-396-2422 or Metro Crime Stoppers 866-7LOCKUP. In September of 2014, a 39-year-old man was shot multiple times and killed outside Jimmy’s Famous Seafood. Police said they have been called 22 times to the popular restaurant for minor incidents since July.

Canton murder was a targeted act On August 28, the Canton community was shocked by the murder of 44-year-old Michael Charles Thompson in his home on the 800 block of S. Clinton St. Thompson was shot multiple times in the head and upper torso by the unknown suspect. His body was found covered with a blanket and there weren’t any signs of forced entry at the crime scene. At this month’s Canton Community Association Meeting, Major Garrity of the Southeast police department gave updates on the case. According to Garrity, Thompson had been selling illegal drugs out of his house. The police believe his murder is related to his crimes. In 2001, Thompson had pleaded guilty to one count of child pornography and one count of the possession of drugs with the intent to sell for which he served a year in jail. “It was a very targeted act of violence. I can’t really go into the case as far as what we’ve got on it, but we do have some leads. I kind of thought we’d have an arrest on this by now, but we’ve kind of hit a snag right now trying to find the individual,” said Garrity. He added that the police have interviewed key people in the case, including neighbors and those who knew Thompson, and believes that they are close to apprehending the suspect.

Many residents were concerned about their safety of their neighborhood after the news of the murder broke. “There’s nothing to worry about as far as being safe in your own homes. It’s not like the Kim Leto murder where they broke into her house and murdered her. This is something where the person was involved in something illegal and as a result of these criminal activities, this happened,” said Garrity. Anyone with information on the case is asked to call the Metro Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-866-7LOCKUP.

Transportation updates from Rawlings-Blake at CCA by GIANNA DECARLO EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM

On Tuesday, October 6, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and representatives from the Department of Transportation, and Parks and Recreation attended the Canton Community Association meeting to discuss upcoming plans for the Canton neighborhood. At the start of the meeting, CCA president Sean Flanagan said he outlined topics that the mayor and representatives would discuss. Most of these issues dealt with transportation and infrastructure, issues that Flanagan said was of most importance to residents. One topic was an extension on Eaton St. Flanagan said this would help ease traffic congestion that is only going to be made worse by new developments coming to the area. “Eaton Street is something that we have been looking at and trying to find a solution for. We are planning to work on the extension of Eaton St.,” said Baltimore City Department of Transportation Director William Johnson. Johnson added that it was a work in progress and that the DOT is working to secure right of way acquisitions with property owners in the area. He said he is hopeful for a quick resolution. The completed project will cost around $2 million. Flanagan then brought up a proposal that would extend Toone St. into Haven St. Johnson said there wasn’t currently a plan in place for this extension. “The issue is that Toone St. is not a federal roadway. Eaton isn’t either, but Eaton only has a 2 million dollar price tag. Toone St. is a whole lot more expensive for issues we won’t get into,” said Johnson. He said some issues included lack of drainage in the area and the environmental issues related to the Exxon building on the property. With this, Johnson said the DOT is working with the Maryland Transit Administration to establish bike-only lanes and coordinating bus centers. Rawlings-Blake was then asked about her general thoughts on transportation in light of the Red Line’s cancellation. She said she has been told by Governor Hogan that his transportation staff is looking for alternative forms of public transportation. “Making the buses run on time is not meeting the transportation needs of the community. And, I made that very clear to the governor, so I’m cautiously optimistic about the plans they’re going to put forward,” said Rawlings-Blake. The mayor was then asked about extending the Charm City Circulator to Canton. Last

week, it was announced that the Purple route of the Circulator would be extended. However, Rawlings-Blake said there weren’t any plans to create a Canton route. The discussion then shifted to the consequences of the new buildings that are coming to Canton. The final speaker was Paul Taylor, the chief of development and planning for the Department of Parks and Recreation. Taylor spoke about plans to turn the minipark near the Canton Waterfront into a splash pad. Currently, there’s a wading pool in the area that Taylor said is unfavorable because Parks and Recs wants to avoid standing water. The wading pool also requires lifeguards to be present which the splash pad would not need. Taylor said that the department is still brainstorming on the best plans. The idea of turning the area into a hockey arena was brought up, especially since the future of the ice rink at Patterson Park is in limbo. The plan is still being developed. Taylor said the department would update the community on what they will do. “It’s one of our last chances for green space in the community,” said Flanagan. The meeting concluded with RawlingsBlake talking about her plans to rehab and build recreation centers across the city. Part of the plan includes developing aquatic centers, like the proposed splash pad. “This is something that everyone across the city, no matter what part of town you go to, says ‘what about recreation?’,” said RawlingsBlake. She then asked the CCA for their support in securing $150 million from the city council for these improvements.

TESOL Training Program H ere ’ s

wHat our students Have to say :

This week it was announced that Blue Water Baltimore will receive $500,000 from the Chesapeake Bay Stewardship Fund to support their Deep Blue program. This program will use a community-based approach to help improve the health of the environment by adding green infrastructure in underprivileged neighborhoods. Highlandtown was one of the five neighborhoods chosen to be a part of Deep Blue. Deep Blue was created through a partnership between Blue Water Baltimore, the Baltimore City Department of Public Works, and the Neighborhood Design Center. Blue Water Baltimore staff will work on these neighborhoods as part of a comprehensive and community-wide greening project. The overall objective is to improve and restore the water quality of the Chesapeake Bay and improve public health. There will be approximately 44 new projects implemented. “We are ready to get to work on this exciting partnership effort and grateful for the resources to help make it happen. Community leaders and residents have been doing great work to better their communities, which we can now further support through planning and implementation of projects. Such projects include tree pits, trash education, and watershed restoration. Efforts funded through this initiative will connect our environmental restoration efforts to community priorities that will help improve air quality, water quality, community aesthetics, property values and more,” said the executive director of Blue Water, Halle Van der Gaag.

Last week, Blue Water Baltimore announced a separate initiative to plant more trees in Highlandtown. The new trees will increase the canopy space, reduce the temperature, and prevent stormwater runoff. This week, the organization broke ground for dozens of new trees in west Baltimore. This comprehensive approach for outreach, education, and planning will create citizens who are more informed, build a sense of stewardship, and provide many social and environmental benefits. This approach aligns with our plans, and the plans of our partner agencies, in creating healthier local waterways and a healthier Chesapeake Bay,” said Baltimore City Department of Public Works Director Rudy S. Chow. “Additionally, the public projects that will be identified through this planning process will leverage approximately $2 million in stormwater capital projects for these neighborhoods. We are happy to partner with Blue Water Baltimore and other entities to help meet our various regulatory goals, and provide a model for other projects here and beyond.” The other four neighborhoods benefiting from the grant are Mondawmin, Oliver, BelairEdison, and Cherry Hill. “Although green infrastructure will not address every layer of need in any particular neighborhood, we believe this process will, in fact, address important community and environmental challenges through listening, planning, and project implementation,” stated Blue Water Baltimore in a press release.

Southeast Anchor Library dedicated to Jackie Watts By Gianna DeCarlo

Jackie Watts, the former editor of the Baltimore Guide and an advocate for Southeast Baltimore, received a fitting tribute on her birthday. The Southeast Anchor Library at 3601 Eastern Ave. was dedicated to the late Watts on Thursday, October 8th, symbolizing not only her accomplishments, but all the lives she touched through her pioneering spirit. Watts was a driving force behind getting the library built. “Jackie made this library happen. She worked hard for it. She watched every bit of construction right across the street. She was dedicated to making sure this part of the city had a library it deserved,” said Dr. Carla Hayden, the CEO of Enoch Pratt Free Library. Hayden said that when Watts’ family suggested dedicating the library to her, they said ‘yes’ immediately. “Even though it’s still hard for a lot of us to believe that she’s no longer with us, we still know that she’s with us and she wouldn’t really want us to be sad,” she said. Richard Sandza, the former publisher of the Guide, spoke about this tribute and how it was a proper way to carry on to Jackie’s legacy. “I can’t think of a better thing to do for Jackie Watts then to dedicate a library to her,” he said, mentioning that Jackie was well-read and was always quick to share an interesting fact or story. “There was never a supporter more in the corner of the library than Jackie. This library

has become this symbol of literacy in the city. To have all these people who represent so many points of her life and things that she did and enjoyed and her interest and the lives that she touched is incredibly moving,” said Mary Helen Sprecher, one of Jackie’s closest friends and co-worker at the Baltimore Guide. The final speaker was Senator Barbara Mikulski. “I know she’d [Jackie] say ‘Barb, don’t talk so much, let’s have a blowout!’,” said Mikulski, with a laugh. “You can’t be from Baltimore, you can’t represent Baltimore, you can’t live in Highlandtown or Fell’s Point without knowing Jackie.” Jackie was the chair of the community advisory committee for the construction of the library and founded the Friends of Southeast Anchor Library. Mikulski called the library an “opportunity center” that brought together the diverse communities of Highlandtown. Whether it was somebody studying for a GED or a child looking forward to a book reading, the library has something for everyone which was exactly Jackie’s vision. Besides the library, she was fiercely devoted to making Patterson Park the safe hub of entertainment and fun it is now. She helped write the original Masterplan for the park in 1998. Every jogger or dog-walker or mother pushing a stroller in the park owes Jackie a ‘thanks’. As is obvious by her activism and devotion, Jackie cared deeply for her neighbors and had a generous spirit. She was also extremely witty and intelligent with a masterful way with words that helped secure the Guide as the Southeast institution. Jackie served as the editor of the Baltimore Guide for 22 years, receiving accolades and appreciation from readers all over the city. “She brought a verve to the Guide and she brought a vision to the community. She knew that as times were changing that the gateway to so many people would be to have this library. I love Jackie and her fighting spirit, her tell-it-like-is, no nonsense. She didn’t pull any punches and she threw a few herself,” said Mikulski. Then, the curtain was removed and the framed picture of Jackie was revealed, now resting where it belongs, at the entrance of the library she made possible. At the end of the dedication ceremony, Jackie’s brother, Jim, began singing Happy Birthday. The crowd joyfully joined him.

Senator Barbara Milkulski remembered Watt’s kindness, generosity and no-nonsense attitude. | Photo by Gianna DeCarlo

Baltimore only has three neighborhoods that are designated arts and entertainment districts: Station North, the Bromo Tower area, and perhaps most surprisingly, Highlandtown. Highlandtown is living up to this designation as an arts destination with the opening of Y:ART, a new gallery at 3402 Gough St. Y:ART hosted its opening reception on Saturday, October 10. The opening was a success, bringing out hundreds of art lovers and exposed them to new local artists with their own individual visions. The gallery’s curator and founder, Julie Yensho, said they sold three paintings before the doors even opened. “We have amazing art in here. The artists are outstanding,” said Julie Yensho. Yensho discovered the featured artists through her diverse background and connections in the art world. “We just found each other,” she said. She described the culmination of these different art forms a “good marriage.” The building was once a car dealership and then a Sons of Italy Lodge. You would never guess it. Now, it is enveloped with art. Whether it’s stained-glass wind chimes hanging from the ceiling, cabinets filled with metal jewelry, or tables displaying handmade lavender soaps and perfumes, each corner of the large space is put to use. “I walked in and I said ‘This place would make an amazing gallery’ and that’s how it all started,” said Yensho. She stresses that the gallery wouldn’t have been possible without the unconditional, although sometimes hesitant, support from her late husband, Tom. “He has been behind me the whole way, guiding me and getting me through it. He’s always believed in me and all my ideas,” said Yensho fondly. They bought the building 2 and a half years ago, and it’s been a long, but fulfilling process to turn it into the gallery they knew it could be.

Y:ART In a separate room from the gallery is a shop selling a wide diversity of unique gifts and crafts. “What I thought was perfect about this place is that the rooms are not separate, but connected. I love high-end crafters, I love good jewelry, I love good art. Everything must be handmade. I love it all and there’s not really that many good shops around,” said Yensho. Yensho said she wanted to avoid the clutter and mass-produced feeling of a flea market. “I want to kick it up here and bring a new diversity to Highlandtown.” Yensho is dedicated to showcasing the work of lesser-known artists. For every opening, she wants to feature a new, local jewelry maker. There’s also a back room where artists will

Diverse works come together at new gallery

be allowed to host workshops for community members. “I have to give this back. I’ve been given so much, I have to give back. It’s good karma,” said Shesho. “I get to have fun. It’s like Christmas every day and I get to rearrange stuff and have fun.” Yensho’s background is just as diverse as the art she’s promoting. She spent 20 years as a pastry chef, specializing in sculptural pieces made of sugar and chocolate. She also dabbled in furniture refinishing, rug painting, and even mushroom hunting. In all her travels and bizarre jobs, Yensho never would’ve guessed she’d end up owning an art gallery. “That’s what I do! This whole thing, I’m just making up as I go along. It’s just happening and falling together.”

The current exhibitions of artists will be on display until November 21. The new exhibit will be up by the first week of December. As for the name, “Y:ART” is the question all creators must ask themselves. “I kept thinking and thinking and thinking. And I was driving and I thought ‘why? why? why?’ and then I thought ‘art!’ and that’s why the colon is there, because it’s a question. Why do we do it? Because of art. That’s why,” said Yensho. If you’re interested in showing your art, contact Yensho at y.artgallery@yahoo.com. She said she will give a look at every aspiring artists’ work. For more information on Y:Art and a full list of artists, visit www.facebook.com/ YARTBMORE.

Why do we do it? Because of Art. That’s why! The Y:ART gallery features the work of over 30 local artists and crafters with varying mediums and styles. Top: “Desert Bird” by Sydney Hopkins. | Photos by Gianna DeCarlo

Falafelicious offers quick, light and fresh food on the go by GIANNA DECARLO EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM

The falafel and the quinoa salad are popular selections at Falafelicious.| Photos by Julie M. Kichline

We finally made it to the highly touted Falafelicious which opened last month at the former Farmstead Shack building at Canton Crossing. Our critique: Yum! Falafelicious offers a Chipotle-like assembly line with a variety of gluten-free and vegan options based around, of course, falafel! Here’s how it works: Step 1: Select either falafel ($7.50) or meat ($8.50) There are 3 types of falafel: traditional, curry basil, and spicy harissa. There are 3 meat selections as well: beef koobideh kebab, grilled chicken kebab, and turkey gyro. Step 2: Select a “vessel” There are 3 options: pita or wrap, rice bowl, or salad. Step 3: Select a sauce Green tahini (an herby sesame paste), traditional tzatziki (mint yogurt), spicy harissa (garlicky and spicy) or garlic white sauce (made with buttermilk and lemon). We sampled the spicy harissa falafel over a salad which contained organic mixed Arcadian greens, cucumbers, roasted red peppers, feta, and Kalamata olives with tzatziki sauce ($7.50) The harissa gave it a nice kick, but it was not too spicy. In fact, it was perfect over the cool salad creating a well-balanced and light, yet filling meal. The next item we tried was the original falafel in a pita with tahini ($7.50). It had

hummus, cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes, green onion, pickles and turnips. The texture of the falafel was perfect, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, delightfully crumbly and messy. The tahini sauce was smooth and creamy and complemented the seasoned vegetables nicely. The pita was fluffy, but sturdy enough to hold all the toppings. The final dish was the chickpea and quinoa salad ($6) which we loved. It had both wonderful texture and flavor. It was topped with a spicy house dressing that made the dish. Also available on the menu are homemade hummus ($7.50), falafel bites ($5.50), and a fattoush salad ($6) comprised of farm vegetables, feta and crispy pita. And, if you don’t love that one, Falafelicious also offers a house salad ($6) with organic mixed Arcadian greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, feta, Kalamata olives and the house dressing. Along with delicious food, the staff was very friendly and provided speedy service, too. The general manager, Kathryn Reich, was quick to offer helpful suggestions and answered all our questions about the flavors and what would pair well with each other. Falafelicious also serves good karma with your meal. Owner, Bill Irvin, announced they would replace the gratuity line on their checks with a donation line for the No Kids Hungry Campaign. Last week, they donated their first check, $600, to the campaign. For more information and a full menu, visit www.facebook.com/bmorefalafelicious.

A new technology in breast cancer detection is helping eliminate the pain and annoyance of traditional mammograms. The new method is called 3D tomosynthesis mammograph and it is beneficial especially for women with dense breasts. The new method makes lumps and lesions easier to spot amongst the breast tissue through a virtual rendering of the breast. “Sometimes we have difficulties seeing. It’s very hard for the radiologist to see a mass that is hiding in the breast density,” said Dr. Marshalee George, the oncology nurse practitioner and a researcher at Johns Hopkins Bayview. The 3D mammogram uses the same scanner as the traditional mammogram, but it takes multiple pictures of the breast instead of just one to create a full image. George said that this gives the doctors a “birds-eye view” of the breast, allowing them to see it in 3D, instead of just 2D. Doctors can get a better sense of the size, shape, and location of the mass through the images. This will help increase the chances of discovering multiple tumors and abnormalities. It also uses less radiation and is more comfortable for the patient. Another benefit is how it saves both money

and time. With the 3D scan, the breast only has to be compressed for 3.7 seconds. Also, you can get your results right away, as the scan is sent digitally to doctors. This means you don’t have to deal with the anxiety and impatience of waiting for your next appointment to get your results. George said that the older method is a dragged-out process that can be simplified for the benefit of the patient. She recognizes that a lot of women have barriers to get through to make it to their appointments, including cost and transportation. She said patients get frustrated with multiple appointments and calls and just want answers quickly. To get the 3D mammogram, you just have to request it from your doctor. If you have dense breasts or have a history of breast cancer, then the 3D tomosynthesis mammograph will most likely already be used. George said young African-American women are the most likely to have dense breasts, so ask your doctor for an analysis. “This really is the best alternative. Over the past 2 years, it has really built momentum nationally and just recently Medicare is beginning to cover it. It will definitely be in more hospitals soon,” said George. “It’s a no-brainer.”

Ladies, have you scheduled your mammogram yet? Medical experts agree that early detection is a woman’s best defense in overcoming breast cancer. In fact, the National Breast Cancer Foundation reports that when breast cancer is detected in the early, localized stage,the five-year survival rate is 98 percent. The organization encourages every woman to develop an early detection plan consisting of breast self exams, clinical breast exams and mammograms based on age and health history. To learn how to perform a monthly breast self-exam, go to www.nationalbreastcancer.org or consult your healthcare professional. A family physician or gynecologist should perform a clinical breast exam as part of an annual visit, and can advise women on the frequency of mammography scheduling.

CITY COUNCIL RACE: The candidates speak Parker said that there was a work group between developers and community leaders to figure out the best way to develop the district without straining the neighborhoods. On crime, he said that we must acknowledge that the police are not only under-staffed but overworked too. To combat this, we must be willing to bring in other resources to find solutions to violence and crime. “There’s more that we can do to work around the edges and be supportive of crime prevention here in the Southeast,” said Parker. The next candidate to speak was retired Army officer and lawyer, Scott Goldman. He said part of his platform is smart development that will help the district progress while preserving the historic neighborhoods and character. Goldman said disciplined leadership was needed. “Whether it’s a small problem or a large problem, what underlies all these problems is that our city government is not functioning,” said Goldman. “When I got home from Afghanistan, I got sick and tired of feeling like our City Government is playing a game of whack-a-mole with our problems. I’m running to get things done. That’s been my experience as an Army officer and attorney. And I know I can get things done for this district.” He also called for rolling mitigation fees that are reevaluated every year to ensure proper payment from developers. Following Goldman was Mark Edelson, a lawyer from Canton. Edelson first tackled the city’s current zoning, which he said has failed. He also said that the mitigation fees paid by developers were inadequate. He referenced the 130 room hotel being built at Recreation Pier and how they are not building any parking spaces. Edelson said the district needs somebody who is experienced in advocacy who can bring people together and encourages communication. “We have to have a long-term vision,” said Edelson about traffic. He said some solutions include better traffic lights, safer bike lanes and a bike share program, and traffic enforcement officers. For safety, Edelson said the local police needs to connect with the community so they can respect and work with each other to solve issues with crime. Next was Zeke Cohen, a former teacher and non-profit director. Cohen began by stating the importance of engaging young citizens and helping them get involved within their communities. To do this, Cohen said Baltimore needs more options for early childhood development, such as universal pre-K.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

“I believe we are a city in crisis, and in times of crisis, leaders step up. In all of my time here in Baltimore, I have not seen so much mistrust and disgust with our public institutions,” he said. He also said that there hasn’t been good planning in the city and that there needs to be a partnership with the community to ensure that new construction is relevant and that residents don’t feel congested. “Local government shouldn’t be some distant, democratic, abstract mess. Local government is all of us here in this park, I believe together we can build a local government that is worthy of the great citizens of Baltimore,” said Cohen. Then the lone Republican in the group of six, lawyer Matt McDaniel, spoke. He said he would go against the status quo of Maryland’s leadership to enact change that will promote economic and population growth. “If we want the city to grow, and we want to see more people in our city, and we want to spend more, we need more people there. We can’t have 0% growth and expect to be able to spend more on good programs.” McDaniel called for city-wide audits to figure out where and how public services are losing money. He said he would be an advocate for the 1st district in Annapolis by bringing a “bipartisan perspective.” “We need somebody to be there that’s not beholden to anybody, who’s not beholden to 75 years of tradition. There’s not a Republican machine in Baltimore city, I’ve looked for them, there’s probably 3 or 4 people I’ve met,” said McDaniel with a laugh. Ed Marcinko, a retired DEA agent, was the last candidate to present. Marcinko called on his time in the DEA and as a community association president to show he was qualified to lead the community. “I believe in boots on the ground. If you’re going to do something, set an example and do it. You have to be proactive if you want to be a councilman, you can’t be reactionary. You’ve got to bring everyone to the table to solve problems,” he said. Marcinko said that the system was broken and could only be repaired when people come together and brainstorm effective solutions. He said that the neighbors needed to unite like the past generations that succeeded in stopping the plan to turn Fell’s Point into a highway. Marcinko also said the city needs to encourage small businesses to come here by eliminating minor privilege fees and lowering their taxes.

Season wrap-up

Full Service Discount ExpertsSM

ADVANCE REALTY DIRECT “Waterfront Specialist”

Now that the Baltimore Orioles season is over, let’s take a quick look back at the team that finished 81-81 on the season. Manny Machado had his best season in his young career and in my opinion the best Oriole this season. Machado hit .286 with 35 home runs and 86 runs batted in while also stealing 20 bases and playing his usual Gold Glove caliber defense at third base. Machado also led the team in runs with 102. Chris Davis also had a great season for the Orioles. Davis crushed a league best 47 HR and his 117 RBI were second in the American League. Davis posted an OPS of .923 which led the O’s and he also scored 100 runs. Adam Jones had a decent season for Baltimore in 2015. Jones hit 27 HR and drove in 82 while roaming center field. Jonathan Schoop also had a good season for Baltimore, hitting 15 HR while batting .279. As for pitchers, Wei-Yin Chen had a good season, posting a record of 11-8 with a team-

best 3.34 ERA amongst starters. Ubaldo Jimenez led the team in wins with 12 as he went 12-10 on the season with a 4.11 ERA. The bullpen did a nice job for the O’s this year as once again Darren O’Day and Zach Britton bolstered the back end of the ‘pen. O’Day pitched to an ERA of 1.52 over 65 1/3 innings. Britton also had an ERA under 2.00 with a mark of 1.92 and his 36 saves were tied for third in the AL this year. Both Britton and O’Day had WHIPs under 1.00: O’Day had a WHIP of 0.93 while Britton’s was 0.99. While the Orioles season is over, there are still a lot of questions heading into this offseason, mainly what free agents, if any will they sign or re-sign? Chris Davis, Darren O’Day, Gerardo Parra, Matt Wieters and WeiYin Chen are all eligible for free agency. Judging by how parsimonious owner Peter Angelos is, I can honestly see all of them leaving. Hopefully, he changes his ways and listens to Adam Jones’ advice.
