When did Jennings almost die, because I only remember Steltz brain nearly exploding. On the Ravens' last offensive play of regulation when the pass went out of bounds and Jennings was acting like he was having a heart attack.
By this date last year, we had signed Baker and Navarro (plus Alberto Cabrera, JC Boscan and Brian Bogusevic, all of whom at least appeared in the big leagues last year). But in 2011, the first notable move was signing DeJesus on Nov. 30.
