I don’t want to give up Westburg. Plus I think trading any of Kremer or Bradish is a mistake.
I think counting on Bradish and Kremer to repeat or improve their performance next year is a mistake. I’d much prefer an upgrade.

I'm fine with the idea of extending him.
Just saying that if he walks, you get a pick.
I hear you. I’d also be find if we missed the pick and got him for one additional year w/the qualifying offer should he want to test market a year later (highly unlikely). Baseball is funny and a lot can happen in 2 years.

I find it comical that people make judgements about people they’ve never met based off of internet stories. Kinda makes me suspicious of the person who passes judgment that easily. With that said, Bauer absolutely does not fit the persona type the Orioles are trying to acquire.

Or we get him for 3 years at a fair market rate.

All jokes aside, after digesting this for a day now I really like the deal. I keep telling myself to be patient and the off-season is far from over. This move gives me a little more hope a game changing move is on the horizon. Very creative and aggressive move taking advantage of Met’s circumstances. I’m excited to see what move is next. Imagine it will be the last significant move and the most exciting.

He's going to get expensive very quickly. Estimated ARB1 number is $4.4mm.
I wish he would get on base a bit more but have come to the conclusion that is just not a big part of his game. It does, however, keep him from being an elite leadoff guy. I'm afraid that his ARB2 and 3 will be numbers that pay him like an elite Leadoff guy. I am not in favor of an extension as I think he doesn't age well.
Crohn’s disease is no joke. The poor guy will have to deal with that the rest of his life. Love the man, but if I’m his employer that makes me nervous.

Can back up MI in a pinch.

Shaw is a stud. Great fielder and he mashes.

Almeyda looks super athletic. His hands and footwork look pretty incredible for a 16 y/o. I like how simple and direct his swing is, too.

Frazier must really turn the double play well.

Stay off of Orioles Hangout and the internet and avoid fellow Orioles fans and you should be just fine.
Been trying! Easier said than done.

I’ll see you guys when baseball starts. I hate this time of year, mostly because there is no baseball to watch (except on the islands) and the hot stove thing isn’t my cup of tea. This year silly me got a little excited and good lord what a let down. I’ve been trying not to overreact but boy are a lot of these moves head scratchers. I can’t wait for the spring to get here. Heading down to Nicaragua in a few weeks so will have to get my fill in watching los Gigantes de Rivas.

Gonna check back in a few weeks but this off-season has an eerily similar feeling.

I’ve seen him play a bunch. I’m 6’ 215. He is much taller than me I’d say 6’3”and is thick (ripped not fat) I’d guess 225.

Last year, yes. But he was wroth 4.2 FWAR as recently as 2021 and looks to be a plus fielding RF. There's a lot of bust potential with him for sure. He just turned 29. Maybe he's done. Maybe not.
Mazara is an enigma. Wonder if he is actually 29.

My first thought was this is bad news for Neustrom.
-
His extreme hot and cold streaks would be frustrating. Especially with other similar players on the team. I think I pass on him.

All 3 goals were bonehead defensive lapses. Tyler Adams isn't going to sleep well when he sees video of him jogging back with a wide open player at the edge of the box right in front of him.
Can't hand a team like the Dutch golden opportunities, they will punish you (and they did).
Especially when you can't finish. My only real question for the next world cup is going to be who can be the impact 9 that all the good squads have? I don't think Weah or Reyna are the answer. I'd like Weah as a super sub to go nuts in the last 15-20 minutes of a game.

Brasil and France look like the class of the tournament. All the remaining games should be an absolute blast to watch. Brasil has so much talent is absolutely unreal. They could sub out half the team and still have a good chance at winning the tournament.

US trailing Netherlands 2-0 at the half. They’re a frustrating team to watch. Had the ball on the Netherlands side much of the half but were utterly unable to generate shots on goal. Meanwhile Netherlands found open space twice and converted beautifully both times.

My 2 cents. They have the talent. First time I've said that ever, I'm not a believer in the US Soccer system. They were poorly coached, poorly prepared, and poorly managed. They looked very 'green'. Which is a good thing and a bad thing. Good thing - they will be back and have this experience under their belt. Bad, they got embarrassed. The goals to the Dutch was 101 type stuff and simply just blinking when you cannot blink. They cannot finish. Flat out, they had opportunities left and right and could not put the ball in the net. Very very frustrating to watch. Keep an eye out for them at the next World Cup. Their future is bright.

They went back and forth on MLB network last Monday (was driving all day) and almost everyone agreed he should be in. They also think Albert Belle has a legit resume and should/would be next. I know McGriff doesn’t have the 70war but at 2490/493/1550(less than Baines), a 130OPS+ And a good bit of bold print even though he played in the thick of the Steroid era and at First Base no less. Congrats Crime Dog! Well deserved IMHO.

Might need to take some time away from the hot stove for a while…

Man - what a last couple of days. The tournament looks wide open. Tomorrow is a big big day!!

My first comment was actually partly serious. I think this signals spending a bit more on the back-up assets. Franchy as a backup project is a lot more exciting than Diaz or even Neustrom.
Eovaldi signed with Rangers per Moose

I don’t think they are going to give up any picks this year. Maybe next year.
