We re-signed Garabez Rosa and Marcel Prado. They remain with us.

Thanks Billy, I updated the OP. They both had nice years, glad to see them re-signed.

Also, for any players we add to the organization, I'll try to link in their baseball reference page.

We re-signed Tim Alderson (our bounty from trading Luis Ayala). We also signed Cam Kneeland, our first Independent League signee this year. Kneeland mainly held down the 3B position for the Trois-Rivieres Aigles of the Can-AM League, his baseball-reference page is attached in the OP.

Alderson was the Canzler deal. BTW, he was a first round pick.

Chris Jones was the Ayala deal.

The Orioles signed their first international player of the offseason, inking 18 year old Juan Diego Montes. He hails from Guatemala. Most media are incorrectly reporting that he is the second player we have signed from there (they mention Aguilar). We also have Manny Hernandez as well.

      How should we look at FA contracts going forward?

      By Sydnor · Posted

      I know this isn’t the question that you asked, but my recollection is that you worked on the business side for the Orioles at some point, so I think you might be able to weigh in on this idea: do you think there are business reasons to extend a Gunnar or an Adley? I know you’re view is generally that extensions are overrated by the fanbase, but that largely seems related to the idea that you are paying for past-peak years (if I’m off base here, it wasn’t intentional—just my recollection). I tend to think that from a business standpoint, an extension for a young player would not make a material difference concerning the amount of tickets sold, revenue generated, etc. and would really just make some people on X happy, but I don’t really have anything to support that opinion.

      The way he is pitching that's like throwing gas on a fire.

      I don't think Elias will seriously entertain bringing back Santander.

      Left the game with 1 run in and 2 on ,2 outs in the 6th and Akin gave up both runs. Bad luck tonight in my opinion but I'm sure there are many on here will say he sucks and should be replaced.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By EddeeEddee · Posted

      Yeah, we're kind of getting off track here since this is a Jackson Holliday thread, but I will say I don't see how Mountcastle gets traded -- and even if he did it would be to unblock Mayo and not Kjerstad.  Both Mounty and Mayo are righties, and it doesn't look like Mayo will play third base anytime soon.  I think two of the prospects need to get traded -- maybe in the offseason or next season -- unless Hays, O'Hearn or Mounty are dealt.  I think there's a chance the O's bring back Santander, but that's a big wildcard too.

      4/19: O's Fall To THe Royals

      By OsFanSinceThe80s · Posted

      I was in favor of trading one of Mountcastle/Hays/Santander after last year to make room for prospects like Kjerstad. I see the main issue with trading one of the above or O'Hearn is those players will deliver more value in an Orioles uniform over the return in any trade. I'm leaning towards Elias taking a calculated risk and creating at bats for Kjerstad.
