Oh stop with the BS excuses. I have watched this team for decades just blow through pitching “talent” and fail to have free agent pitchers live up to their potential. Remember “The Cavalry” How about Rich Hill? Wade Miley? Arietta? Just a few of countless examples. They need to figure this nonsense out where “The Baltimore Orioles” baseball franchise is incapable of developing any pitcher to their full potential. Period.

FOCUS ON PLAYER (PITCHER) DEVELOPMENT PLEASE.

Yawn, stretch, coffee, morning after.... Of course we’re interested. Whaddya got?

Agree with a lot of this, but I think you explained why the former didn’t happen with the latter observations. he is probably not ready to be in a ”buy” mode yet. some moves would have been nice, missed opportunity.

6 foot 8 inches. Little guy.

They are not really playing ...bad... baseball right now. The pitching needs work, and Mr. Davis is still not helping the lineup.... But they are playing some good games against some good teams.

I will be there for some games definitely.

I am sure our young, 35 year old first time GM, learned a lot this deadline. He was not golfing.

Looks at first glance like he did not want to undersell or give in at the end of his first trade deadline in control. I am sure he learned a lot and he did not get fleeced lol. Still plenty of work to do and ways to add talent. Looks like, for the most part, these will continue to be, your 2019 Baltimore Orioles.

I am glad you are not a gm

No. Next.

Cuz he sucks!

Another hit. 2-4 with a walk tonite. AAAAAAAAAND he is catching a 3 hitter

I am guessing it will be because an arbitrator says that is what he is worth in the current environment. He would be worth more to me, as an Oriole, for the reasons listed. I am a season ticket holder, and I want to watch fun baseball up to and including when we finally win something.

Are we allowed to have this thread again?

No one is paying him 7-8 million, and a baseball field has 7 position players.

Just a fan, man, I just want something fun to watch. My parents are both very sick, and they love watching the Orioles, and I want something fun for them to watch. They have already traded away all of their favorites and these deadlines suck for them cuz all the good players are traded away for 17 year olds or guys who they might never see play.

And your little chart here says 1.7 war, not 1.3. That is actually a significant difference

I play in a really in depth fantasy baseball league, and he is the 18th most valuable player in the American League, including pitchers. He does some things very well. He is not blocking anybody, either

Wonder if “now more than ever” is because of his little tantrum the other day?

Am I the only one? He plays differently than anyone we have had in an Orioles uniform in years, and he just keeps on producing. I just really can’t see us getting enough back to replace his level of production at his positions. He really doesn’t make that much money, and he shows up every day and does something fun.

We just saw this game yesterday

Every. Single. Game. Our guys are giving up moonshots. What happened to the Secret Sauce?

Printer gets warmer.

I think he gives up too many big home runs. Looks like MLB Straily right now. Good for a tanking team.
