Liking the options for the Os.
If Elias doesn’t get cute….

Orioles select Ben McDonald’s great grand cousin in an underslot deal:)
-
Leiter as predicted. Love him.

Pretty surprising overall but it seems like the Pirates went more for organizational need.
Makes a ton of sense for them, good pick imo.

The Orioles will def have elite talent available, if Elias goes underslot, I am getting off the Elias bandwagon.

I'm hoping Leiter goes to Texas only to spite the Sox.
I’d take him 1 but that’s me.
-
Wow! That means one of the 3 elite shortstops will be available, huge. Leiter goes next I am certain.
-
Hell yeah! Love watching it!
Hoping Elias doesn’t try to get cute again, take BPA!

Mancini is such a tremendous human being, what a role model. He is an inspiration to us all. Nobody more deserving. I will be sick to stomach if he leaves.

I heard Matt Blood give an interview and it was pretty apparent that they don’t think he’s ready defensively in the infield.
From an org that kept playing Mark Reynolds at 3rd

I love this.
It seems like everyone is in such a hurry to trade away our best players to save the Orioles more money they won't spend.
I never understood why we couldn't keep Schoop to help during the rebuild, and I don't like the idea of trading Means or Mullins. I wouldn't mind moving Santander, but I guess that's because I don't expect him to repeat what he did last season.
Sell the team if you can't afford to compete.
Oh they are def selling, just timing. Peter just had his 91st birthday I believe.

Please do not politicize this topic. Discussing the "delta variant" and discussing city policies outside of Baltimore will certainly politicize this topic.
I would like to know how Sports Guy, the biggest pos internet bully I have seen, is allowed to get away with blatant politics and insults yet Frobby is singled out? I can’t keep posting here with that ahole attacking everyone.

I think they were both better than Jason Garcia.
I have zero issues with the Garcia pick, high upside, just didn’t work. Santander did. Ben’s nephew wasn’t on anyone’s radar and heard he was taken as a favor. Not a fan of that decision making.

Sounds like they will need to fill holes soon, trades coming.

One thing about knucklers: on the days the pitch isn’t working, the pitcher becomes extremely vulnerable. Let’s hope yesterday was just one of those days for Jannis.
Yeah. I am rooting for him but if it were easy, everyone would do it. Fun to watch though and we suck so bad, who cares. He obviously needs to do better than that but we will see.
-
Bummer debut for Jannis but still a big fan, perfecting the knuckleball is a long process.

Now we just need to get Elias to pick one of them.
Good luck with that. This year’s draft is make or break for me regarding Elias.

Perhaps the Orioles should get creative to catch the Diamondbacks. Raffle a chance for fans to play for the Os! Think of the savings!

Kevin Brown & Jim Palmer make a terrific combo, they make anything good but when it’s Garceau, most of my attention goes to the nba playoffs these days. And what concerns me is if Elias goes underslot again this year. I will be upset. Please don’t tank for the 10th/15th best player. If he does that again this year, I will no longer be on Team Elias.

Agreed with the sentiment....I’ve been home on paternity leave this past month, so I’ve got time and bandwidth. Usually I’ll start watching the games in the evening, but after the first hour or so, things are so out of hand or so ugly that I’ll switch to NHL or NBA playoffs. Or I’ll cede the remote to my wife and suffer through whatever is on Bravo (which, incredibly, is often not as bad as the Orioles...) I very much want to watch and still generally enjoy it, it’s just really a tough sell when we’re getting our doors blown off or, as in the Cleveland series, the quality of play gets so ugly.
Like others, I definitely derive a lot of baseball happiness from monitoring the minor league box scores and dreaming of better days in Baltimore.
Congrats on the baby!

Elias has to know he's going to lose the casual fan with this style of rebuild.
He’s losing a lot of big baseball fans too, but until Peter passes, it will be the forever rebuild.
