  1. MLBTR Says it looks like the Cubs are going to sign Hosmer.
  2. Does Elias and Angelos realize fans notice they are doing little to make us a contender for 2023? Do they think us fans don't notice other teams scooping up the best available FA's everyday? They don't realize that you have to overpay and take some risks? Why is it OK for most other teams to overpay and take risks but not the O's. Why don't Angelos announce the truth to the fans, he don't want the financial responsibility it takes to put a good product on the field like all other owners do. I don't understand why Angelos wants to keep the team when he don't want any risks like other team owners accept. I know Angelos got burned with Ubaldo, C.Davis and Cobb, if he had hired the proper personnel then to analyze the FA's available there would have been better results. He now has the personnel, but Angelos still don't listen to the personnel. He could still salvage the off season with the signing of Cueto, Wacha.
  3. Eovaldi has just signed with the Rangers, I think 34mil 2 years.
  4. We can always hope one of these pitchers is a Cionel Perez type find.
  5. Didn't the Dodgers rip us off in the Machado trade? That Diaz was a bust, the jury is still out on Kremer!
  6. I hope the ownership didn't hire Elias to spend as low as possible to fool the fans that they are trying to improve the O's? I am disappointed that the O's didn't sign one premiere FA that was promised by Elias. I want to believe that Elias's goal is to get a strong farm system. I guess I am spoiled that the O's improved so much and I want more.
  7. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/f/fraziad01.shtml?utm_campaign=Linker&utm_source=&utm_medium=referral He hit over .300 in 2021 so who knows he may be good?
  8. Why don't we resign Lyles? He pitched pretty well for us this season and he was happy here.
  9. Noah Syndergaard is now off the board. He signed 1 year 13mil + incentives with Dodgers.
  10. The Yankees are trying to buy all the best FA's. I feel angry that we have to be in the division with the world's richest team. How is it fair for us? In the other divisions don't have nearly as tough as we have. We want Rondon, well so do the Yankees and money is no object. We have interest in Corea, well so do the Yankees and money is no object. The team with the most money is the best team money can buy. What are all your opinions on this issue?
  11. I hope we sign FA's instead of trades, even if we have to overpay. I don't want to thin out our farm system in trades. Elias said our goal is to be good many years to come from our strong farm system.
  12. Is Frenchy better than Odor? He is probably Odor's replacement.
  13. I followed the Mets and Bassitt really pitched well when Scherzer and deGrom were injured. He came through when they really needed him. I hope we sign him.
  14. It looks like a lot of competition for FA pitchers. It may be hard to sign a veteran pitcher since many teams are looking for the same as us, less expensive. Any thoughts anyone?
  15. I give Elias an A. He has took over a major overhaul left by the previous management. I have complete confidence in Elias. I am so happy the O's have turned the corner from a disastrous previous situation.
  16. Taijuan Walker/ Nick Anderson were not offered contracts from their former teams. Should the O's consider to sign Nick Anderson / Taijuan Walker if the price is cheap? Nick Anderson could be a good bullpen piece and Taijuan Walker could be a back of the rotation starter. What do you all think?
  17. Shouldn't the O's plan for Jackson Holiday to be our future long term SS? I think we would need to sign Corea long term to get him to sign with us. Our future is elsewhere. How about Westburg 2B Holiday SS and Henderson at 3B? This is our future.
  18. I 100% agree to lock them up long term.. Also lock up Chris Holt (He amazing with our pitching)
  19. Sign these 3 Jacob deGrom Pitcher Josh Bell First Base Nolan Arenado Third Base
  20. Why are the O's resting their regulars when this is the last game, they have all off season to rest?
