Good they should be upset.

This reeks of cheapness. Peter Angelos strikes again.

Buster is probably basing this solely on Jones' 1 tweet and then sent him a text message or something. Of course their not happy.

Well I don't blame them. I think we will all be upset unless the Orioles make additional moves because we know they have $45 million of new money to use towards payroll. They need a splash through free agency or trades. Anything less and there will be no doubt where the Orioles stand.

I hope the organization knows that their honeymoon of winning baseball is over. It's time for them to step up this winter and use their resources for players.

I would guess that they would be upset. You've traded a guy who was a leader in the clubhouse and a proven asset to the team for a guy who may not ever make the Orioles Major League roster.

Some moves better be coming soon...season tickets are right around the corner.

Earlier I said, this was a clear sign that this team was no longer going to be competitive and of course the apologists are backing everything Peter does and putting spins on it.

Will you apologize if the O's are competitive in 2014?

No, no, not what I was saying at all. Just busting Buster's balls (ha) and figuring he did the minimal amount of reporting on this as usual. But no, I think probably everyone in the clubhouse thinks this sucks. Until proven otherwise. But ballplayers have like one mentality and they always get bent out of shape about stuff like this.

Like Tony said, it's up to DD to show it's all good by acquiring some good players. We'll see.

Are they upset because their good friend Jim Johnson was just traded away? Or are they upset because the team doesn't plan on upping the payroll or significantly improving the roster?

No clue, but the second reason would be justified.

Dang tooting I will. Hell, you think I want to be wrong on this?

But, you know, there is quite a bit of us, sitting around the water cooler and saying WTF.
