Not sure I want to help the competition for the #1 pick get worse.

Been saying it for years. Unless you got a pitch like Britton of course.

He got hired away by the O's.

He could get traded or released.

Just regular season or including playoffs?

I'll take 150.

Minor league deal, only costs 800K if he makes the team. Might can eat some innings.

So if you get busted for Amphaetimes twice and steroids once what is the punishment?

Maybe five years from now they bring someone on and surprise you.

Jim Thome.

And to think folks didn't think the O's would spend this offseason.

And the changes in his physique.

It is not ideal to have a CO with an OPS+ under 100.

I agree it wasn't kind. If you aren't kind it means you gutted someone? They also said " At times, Fernando Tatis Jr. is an absolutely incredible fielder."," The speed, presence of mind, and arm strength needed to turn that ball into an out are simply breathtaking.", " If you needed proof that Tatis is a sparkling defender, there it is.", " Fernando Tatis Jr. is one of the most exciting players in baseball.", and "he’s capable of greatness. His highs are extremely high." I think the rebuke was fair.

I think you choice of the word gutted was unfortunate.

I did. It seems pretty even handed to me. What about it did you think was overly critical?

Dude finished third in ROY despite only playing 84 games. Who exactly is "gutting him"? That Fangraphs article seemed pretty even handed to me.

And Tillman.

You're forgiven. I'm just throwing some information out there for folks. Personally I think Baker would be a terrible choice for a team in which the players were weaned on applying analytics. I would expect a lot of eye rolls and muttered "OK Boomers".

I'm just going to declare their window closed.

Evidently I did forget this. When did they ban it for players like Davis?

Two million is two million more than zero. Unless he actually wants to retire the O's are competeting against what he made last year, they are competing against what other teams will pay this year.

Many but not all.

Swimsuit season?
