Yep, agreed, not worth it, they better keep him. Regardless, after the last 2 drafts, no longer on Team Elias.

Sigh. The team is most certainty being prepped for sale, not much of a secret at this point. What he said is he will not sell to a non-local buyer, which is true.

If they trade Mancini for anything less than premium talent (and certainly not close to this return), people will check out on the Os once and for all IMO. Some things in life are more important than unloading salary to prep the team for sale.

2021 Draft Thread
NelsonCruuuuuz replied to Moose Milligan's topic in O's Amateur Draft and International Signings
Is that what I said? You would think he is a saint from many on here though. The same exact posters that said we couldn’t judge Joe Jordan for 5+ years after crap draft after crap draft saying the same now. Maybe actions and decisions are important? Maybe ignoring pitching in the top of the draft in a sport determined by great pitching might be poor judgement? -
What a legend! Great HR derby performance! Go Italia!

2021 Draft Thread
NelsonCruuuuuz replied to Moose Milligan's topic in O's Amateur Draft and International Signings
Bullseye. Friendly reminder: Elias has never been a GM before and during his tenure much of his org’s success was under the guise of stealing signs. He also missed on 2 first round pitchers with Houston, hence why he is gun-shy with pitchers. Just because you missed, doesn’t mean you should ignore the most important facet of the game, just insanity. The blind allegiance to this guy is disturbing, likely why this org never improves, fan base just accepts poor decisions & dysfunction, winning orgs don't. -
Posters would defend Elias if he picked a muppet. Just a head scratching draft. If your not getting premium talent internationally (some improvement but not not getting top guys) and you take safe players in the draft and super utility types, how exactly are you closing the gap with the BlueJays, Yankees, Red Sox, Tampa… Haven't won since 1983, it might be 2083 for the next one. Just heartbreaking ineptitude.

Nothing sells tickets like Orioles Hawaiian Shirts
NelsonCruuuuuz replied to Frobby's topic in Orioles Talk
You can get them on eBay. Before rushing out though, have you actually seen it? It’s definitely a huge step down this year. Os went underslot on the Hawaiian shirts this year. -

It’s beyond disgusting. With no accountability, nothing will change. Most posters will move like a pretzel to defend Elias too, watch. -
