You Always Remember Your First Time: Matt Wieters, A Nameplate I Could Never Afford To Put Together.
I was finally able to secure an autograph of one of the game's best catchers, and a guy whose career I really enjoy following. He's been on at least one of my fantasy teams, and put up 5 WAR last season buoyed by stellar defense.It took me forever to find an affordable signature of Matt Wieters, but I finally succeeded. I'm a big fan of these Letterman autos, and with...

Matt Wieters is a cyborg
For the second time this week, Matt Wieters was involved in a collision at the plate, and for the second time, Wieters came out on top.
Unlike in Boston on Sunday though, Tampa infielder Sean Rodriguez really tried to bring the lumber, throwing a forearm shiver to Wieters’ facemask.
If Wieters had dropped the ball Sunday, the Red Sox would have won the game on the play. If...

O’s win in 17th for sweep at Fenway, own best record in MLB
What a weekend at Fenway for the Birds.
Not only did they complete their first 3-game sweep in Beantown since way back in 1994, but the way they did it on Sunday afternoon was something that O’s fans will never forget.
It took 17 innings, both teams using position players to pitch, a huge relay throw from J.J. Hardy to Matt Wieters, Wieters subsequently blocking the plate and...

Wieters is a rock and a rockstar
How do you live up to nicknames that compare you to the reigning MVP, or better yet, to Jesus? The short answer: you don't. A year ago, Matt Wieters was considered a disappointment. By July, he was an All-Star. Now, in the first week of May 2012, with the Orioles near the top of the American League East, Wieters is being tabbed as the best catcher in baseball by many...

Wieters' emergence silences his critics: Special for MASN Sports
Heading into the 2012 season, Matt Wieters has emerged as a leader for the Orioles. Many have argued whether or not he is a bust - despite only having played in the major leagues for less than three full seasons. That being said, he is far from that. So Wieters has not turned into the next Johnny Bench or a Joe Mauer with power. The promise of the night when he debuted is still...

Has Matt Wieters “Finally” Arrived?
The Baltimore Orioles are off to a hot start, and are currently leading the American League East by a game over Tampa Bay and New York. It almost certainly will not last — raise your hand if you think the Orioles’ pitching staff will end the year with their current 3.60 ERA — but at least it is a short period of fun for the fans. It is not simply that some Baltimore...

The Crystal Ball 2012: Matt Wieters
Matt Wieters is finally starting to fulfill the massive promise he showed in the minors.His bat finally started to come around and he flashed some of that power we expected to see from Day 1. He smacked 22 homers, and easily set career highs in slugging percentage and ISO. I don't think anyone believed that Wieters would be such a good defensive catcher but he delivered Gold...
