  1. I think pitching in the AL specifically in the AL East matters compared to pitching in the NL especially. But, that being said, we have a real problem with starting pitching. It could be drafting, development or coaching or all three or something else but we have an issue.
  2. Does it give anyone pleasure when the players that we traded away aren't doing well?
  3. If you were the boss how would you deal with Davis is the Angelos' don't want to eat salary?
  4. I was thinking of the Yankees. They can absorb his salary.
  5. I want to see them miss the playoffs so badly.
  6. Yeah, I agree, but I think Schoop has the more "breakout" potential at any point while Villar has a lower ceiling.
  7. Sorry, didn't see this. I typed in "former" when searching for threads. If the mods want to merge...
  8. How about one thread for updates on how our former players are doing? We could use it for Machado, Schoop, etc... that were traded this year or even if we want to include players that left us years ago.
  9. Well I hope the O's have their names written even bigger on their uniforms now so I can figure out who is who.
  10. Were they also trying to ensure they got the #1 pick?
  11. Looks like we were looking for cheap pieces that did not have to be added to the 40 man
  12. I was thinking we should start having him pitch again. It can't get any worse for him and it might be fun to actually watch.
  13. I'm really curious on theories of what happened to Davis. Was it steroids and he's off of them? Adderall? Pressure of signing the big contract? Huge regression that was just natural? Someone kicked his dog? I could deal with the big strikeouts but he had the HR's as well. He may not have gotten hits but he used to have a good eye and would pick up walks to help his OBP.
  14. I believe we could get him for a 10/300 contract, if, IF, if we gave him a 3 year opt out, but Angelos doesn't do those, so...
  15. I think the only way he agrees to anything is if he is told he will be benched indefinitely and hope embarrassment would convince him to a buy out.
  16. I've wondered why we track the wear on an arm two different ways. In a game, we go by a pitch count, but in a season we go by innings. Shouldn't we use a pitch count for the entire season? 100 innings for one pitcher could mean a whole lot more pitches than another pitcher.
  17. If we decide to sell off at the deadline, would you be interested in a trade of Machado and then try to resign him in the offseason?
  18. Let's see what he does vs some MLB hitters first. Orioles pitchers are usually cursed
  19. Did Arod work out in the end? Wasn't there injuries that caused him to miss a season or two? Maybe we can quantify if his WAR was worth the contract?
  20. It seems rare to me that a free agent acquisition ever ends up being worth the contract they receive. Can ya'll remember many that did? Maybe some small ones, but I am thinking the really big ones, like top tier?
