Just got released. Would anyone take him over Gentry as a backup OF and base stealer? That would make our LF/RF options Mancini (R), Trumbo (R), Rasmus (L), Revere (L), Santander (R)

Is Miguel Gonzalez Returning To The Orioles?
luismatos4prez replied to section18's topic in Orioles Talk
Could be for if they shut Bundy down. He's a better option than Tillman right now. -
Why I Find It Painful to Watch the O's Lately

Excerpt from Buck's postgame presser tonight: [video=youtube;bsB7UQ8BlE0] -
Steve Pearce will save us. We could use a right-handed bat to replace Reimold (who ought to be cut) at this point. Another of the Delmon Young/Lew Ford/Danny Valencia/Steve Tolleson mold.

TT: Orioles' offense well positioned down stretch despite recent struggles
luismatos4prez replied to Tony-OH's topic in Orioles Talk
Kim Machado Jones Davis Trumbo Schoop Alvarez/Pearce Wieters Hardy is my lineup for the rest of the year. There's no need for Jones to leadoff anymore. -
I like Parra, Joseph and Givens quite a bit. I do not think Urrutia, Clevenger, Lake, or Paredes are nuggets. I would shell out for Davis, Parra, and Pearce this offseason.

TT: Why is pitcher one considered a potential TOR and pitcher two a 5th starter/reliever by some?
luismatos4prez replied to Tony-OH's topic in Orioles Talk
Hey Tony, are you a fan of Zach Davies? I'm finding it difficult to decipher from your posts. -
I'm normally a wet blanket about prospects but I'm officially excited about Chance Sisco and Jomar Reyes.

Who was the first Oriole to play for the team who was younger than you?
luismatos4prez replied to TINSTAAPP's topic in Orioles Talk
None yet. I'm a bit younger than Manny. I believe Rougned Odor or Jurickson Profar was the first major leaguer to be younger than me. Can never remember which. -
Tyler Wilson and the 2015 Starting Staff....
luismatos4prez replied to EagleOriole's topic in Orioles Talk
What's the record for IP to start a career without allowing a HR? Wilson is at 24 2/3 now. I like him in the 6th starter/mopup role. I don't trust him with any more than that. -
I hadn't heard anything about that. In fact, Dan said he received a great character recommendation about Parra. I take it you have some inside information that the teams weren't enamored with him? Blink twice for yes
-
I don't think it's fair to make judgments about a player based on the fact that he was traded. For Milwaukee, the trade was a no brainer. He's a decent player who is going to be a FA on a team going nowhere. The Orioles offered a B prospect for him. That's just good business. When he got traded from Arizona, they had AJ Pollock, Ender Inciarte, David Peralta, Mark Trumbo, Cody Ross, and Parra all competing for 3 spots in the outfield. They're a small-market team and looked at this year and saw Inciarte, Pollock, and Peralta all pre-arbitration and made the obvious choice to trade Parra.

Davies for Parra is no more of an overpay than ERod for Miller was. I would be very disappointed. I'd much rather go after Ben Revere.
-
You are correct. I thought Revere was a free agent after this year. Hess and Bridwell perhaps.
