  1. i think Gibson giving the team over 190 innings was pretty significant. I'd like to think the younger guys can step up and replace it, but I'd rather just replace it and have the younger guys step up as well.
  2. Oh I know. Might be why I mentioned it.
  3. He's got one season with more than 150.2 IP. If he hits 150 that still leaves the bullpen with a 40 inning gap from what Gibson gave them.
  4. He's not even an upgrade over Gibson. I'm not sure he's an upgrade over 2022 Lyles.
  5. I think you underestimate exactly how many talking points Boras sends his way.
  6. Gunnar had more bWAR, Adley had more fWAR. I think it's a reasonable take that you go with the Catcher. Don't let your internal bias taint your view of the opinion of others.
  7. I don't think most of the folks are factoring in his older starting age and the generally shorter career length of catchers. I think they are just going with whom they think is the best player.
  8. We won't know until this plays out. I'm sure he's going to have to come down at least a bit, but I don't think an ultimatum is going to work.
  9. If I'm the WS I'm all, oh? OK cool. Good luck with getting your owner to write that check that will bring you back a guy as good as Cease. Talk to you in 49 hours.
  10. At least Gibson pitched over 190 innings. Paxton is 35 and has only pitched over 151 innings once.
  11. I was just providing additional information. Nothing you said was inaccurate.
  12. And as you said ticket prices are up!
  13. He's got a vesting option (140 innings in 2025) that takes it to 3/55.
  14. He also made the Top 10 Shortstops Right Now list complied by Mike Petriello.
  15. The O'Hearn number blows my mind a bit. Career -1.5 rWAR How much is a couple of hot months worth?
  16. It's a two year deal at a rate the O's could afford. Not sure how it could make it to disaster level unless the fans literally riot.
  17. Wondering where you draft pick went.
  18. Is Vlad's mother doing the catering?
  19. That's actually what I've expected all along. The numbers I saw years ago didn't seen to match a bleeding edge set up.
  20. We've got four posters with over 200 posts on the topic. I think it says we have a small group with nothing better to do. I'm not being critical, most threads I'd be one of the four.
  21. Teams know that Elias is hesitant to deal their top guys. Why should they be scared about the O's farm?
  22. I think teams are willing to pay for something between the 2022 and 2023 production.
