As for the thread, this thread is embarrassing. Shields doesn't owe us squat. If I went to the Orioles board and saw this thread I would laugh at them. I hate it when people say other people "owe" them stuff. This team is not only in the playoffs for the first time in 30 years in large part thanks to Shields, it's into the World Series. He could give up 13 runs tonight, and he's still given this city and organization as much success as any player since Brett and Montana retired.
Now, he definitely needs to give us 6 IP, 1 or 2 runs allowed to keep us in the game and give it a shot, but calling him out like this is embarrassing.
