De Aza again.. Buck sat him for a single day. What was the point? Lough was on base 40% of the time he was up and didn't get a second look.. I just don't get it.

I know you are this forums Lough supporter but hes just not a very good player. We likely DFA before too long. De Aza is nothing to write home about but I'd rather have him in there than Lough.

Bogaerts is back in the lineup for Boston. Hopefully we get the "w" tonight. I expect Chen to pitch decent, we just need some offensive support for him. I say the O's win tonight and snap the losing streak.

Bogaerts being back in the lineup is a good thing for us. :D

I'd much rather go up against him than Brock Holt.

I think Lough is better than De Aza. De Aza makes mind blowingly dumb decisions. Lough will have an impact on the team this year.

    • he's not a TOR guy...and never will be.
    • The Verlander trade requires taking on a lot of money and then doing an extension for an older pitcher. And then that older pitcher missed a season with that team (and making a big salary) due to TJ. Are you comfortable with taking those kinds of risks? Oh, the OP was about extensions. No? I guess you are against all long term deals? If so, that is fine. I just have a difference of opinion. 
    • The pitching matchups, I have an eye on of if we skip Irvin and throw Grayson on Sunday. Without a change, Grayson would naturally get the Monday-Sunday next week, and miss the ensuing Monday-Thursday Yankees showdown. I think we generally want more Grayson and less Irvin, including against the Yankees, right? The other path would be to let him gas up extra after the Monday turn, and a home series vs. Oak isn't a bad scenario for a spot start.
    • With Elias and Rubenstein across the negotiating table Boras will know he is up against experts in talent evaluation and financial risk evaluation respectively.  This won’t be Buck circumventing Dan to convince Peter to pay his “big hairy guy” Chris Davis.  Parameters will be established and plan B’s will be in place to implement should Elias and Rubenstein choose to walk away from the table.  That being said discussions with Henderson should be the priority play with the Rutschman discussions happening concurrently but at a slower roll.   I don’t think you want Rutschman finding out that Henderson has been approached by the O’s first.  
    • I think he will be absolutely for that…but I also don’t think he has to for reasons I have stated in the past.
    • Well first of all, I think you are making the mistake that you have to trade high end assets to get good players.  That isn’t true (see Verlander) Secondly, as you continue to build good farm systems and develop good players, you can’t play them all. Trades have to be made. It’s a perfect use of resources. We aren’t talking about extensions. We are talking about big FA deals and yes, there is something wrong with it because those contracts largely blow up in your face.  It’s an awful use of resources and that has been proven time and time again. Just because the guy has had a good career the first 7-10 years doesn’t mean that it will continue to be as good.  Don’t get lured in by the name. The name doesn’t matter, the production does.
    • Is that your preference OR what you think Elias will do?
