  1. I didn't bother to read the post but here is some mediocre Floyd.
  2. I'm curious if they are going to load manage Judge.
  3. I think them adding Kemp disproves that position.
  4. They were drawing 3.5M a year, they could afford the highest payroll in the league, had a winning record. They were in fine shape when he bought the team.
  5. The team was under .500 those years. They weren't that great. They had a nice little run, shame they couldn't cash in like the Royals did.
  6. Yea, I don't think a player with Boras as his agent is going to get more in an Arb 2 hearing over any other competent agent. Makes me question why any player would bother with Boras (I'm assuming he costs more) before they are looking at a long term deal or Free agency. Most guys probably don't even need an agent for the first three seasons, just pay a good lawyer an hourly fee to do the paperwork.
  7. We had a team go 0-21 to start a season and the O's under Angelos had three separate teams that lost more games. Zero rings, zero WS appearances. For multiple stretches during his tenure as owner the O's were a national punchline among baseball fans and O's fans were the subject of pity from other fanbases. I think that take overly weighs the potential of the current situation.
  8. If he prenegotiated with the team that had the first pick he had a pretty good idea he was going first overall. Boras doesn't do any heavy lifting for his clients during the drafting process through the arbitration years. Just isn't much room to maneuver.
  9. I had a few not great days in October.
  10. He wasn't ready for a cup of coffee after the minor league season ended? I'm the one grasping at straws? I also clearly stated that after he was off the IL he was sent to the minors in 2022.
  11. Fun test, how many of those were Boras clients in their rookie year? I'm honestly curious.
  12. Why wasn't he up in 2021? Why was he assigned to the minors when his rehab was finished in 2022?
  13. Let's just keep in mind that we don't what actually went down. There is the slightest of chances that Montgomery either wouldn't sign with the O's or would have demanded a lot more. If all they would have had to do was match the deal tho...
