Isn't Means a free agent?

If the O's got Heim they could DH Adley all the time.

I'm sure that at the very least they have an intern monitoring things.

I can see being optimistic but I'm waiting to see what actually happens.

So much depends on what level of spending they will have going forward. I don't think it's a terrible deal but if the O's are going to be hanging out in the bottom third of payroll it's too much to tie to one pitcher.

Four? Who is your fourth untouchable?

Beats paying Chris Davis to sit at home.

I just have a feeling that Flahtery and the O's were not a good fit last season and that round 2 isn't a possibility.

It would bleed over into my lego and call of duty time.

Or just a sample size of one game.

Lots of players have active social media presence. I think most would rather have a tighter control over the messaging than you could get here.

Hobgood's Uncle. Flat Breezy's brother was a member.

Is he even an elite athlete?

I just picked notable players from the team's last playoff run. I wasn't going for the closest comps.

If Santander had put up a -48 OPS+ over a two week period he'd have more than 11 pages.

By 34 Adam Jones was in Japan, Matt Wieters played 19 games in the majors, Chris Davis played in 16. Markakis had a good year at 34 but his age 33 and 35 seasons were bad.

He's high while they are on crack.

Yes he has more HR than a player not known for his home runs. He also has an OBP 128 points lower and a lower slugging despite the homeruns. What a weird comp to try and make. He's not nearly the hitter Soto is.

The standard back in the day used to be 10K for these guys. I figure most of them only spend a year or two playing ball before getting on with their life. Hopefully he graduated.

Mike?

It's not funny, they were both linked to PEDs. It is what it is.

Slot is $1,418,900. I highly doubt he signed for almost twice that.

And Cruz's aging curve is pretty much unprecedented.

He's slow, 21st percentile sprint speed. He's not someone you should be locking up in his 30's. The O's got a lot of value out of him and should quit while they are ahead.

Nice to see you going with attacking me instead of my points. So I guess you agree that a rebuilding team would make use of an asset like Stowers?
