      Elias: It's on me

      By Pickles · Posted

      And that's fine. I'm not trying to pick on you, because there are literally dozens of posts I could have responded to but didn't, but it seems to me a lot of people are asking for contradictory things.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Just Regular · Posted

      Something that was an open question during much of the year was if Burnes' line about not trying for strikeouts was BS. Broadly I think he gave the market evidence in the end game that he is a master craftsman, and of course 30 year old pitchers have to regulate intensity to complete the season. The 2021 season was just weird.     At ages 25-26, he got most of a year off, and then he got babied like basically every pitcher in the world in Year 1 after COVID. In 2022 they pushed him for more, and the per-batter effectiveness eroded, setting up that notable 2023 Arbitration hearing that helped make him a 2024 Oriole. A GM wanting his services....don't nitpick.    There will be bidders. Unless Rubenstein is planning for three or more mega contracts at the end of the decade, I think there are places it makes more sense to go.

      How does Povich fit into your 2025 plans?

      By Pickles · Posted

      It only takes 2 arms if you'd have him in the rotation over Suarez. Personally, I'd have Suarez in the rotation over him going in to next year as things stand now.

      I feel like they did it because our pitching sucked. Now it doesn't suck, so let's split the difference. I think it would be a mistake to go into 2025 with the current park dimensions.

      How does Povich fit into your 2025 plans?

      By Sanfran327 · Posted

      Povich is in the rotation for me unless one of two things happens: He's a total flop (like a 8-9+ ERA in the spring) We somehow sign or otherwise acquire 2 arms better than him Neither of those things is impossible, but I think it's fairly unlikely that he'll be that bad in spring training. I like what I saw from him after the demotion/recall, and hope he's able to build on it. We'll never know what we have in him if he doesn't get a long term shot.  The tough part is that we are 1,000% in win-now mode, and management may not think we have time to evaluate him for the full season next year, hence, signing or acquiring 2 arms.
