Boras clients are not the type of guys I want. People hire Boras for one reason and one reason only which is to sell themselves to the highest bidder. No loyalty from these guys.

He's a Boras client. Enough said.

Bobby Witt Jr. and his -22 runs saved was suppose to be a legit MLB Shortstop. Fact is man, it's very hard to find an MLB caliber shortstop. Not even Manny could cut it.

Henderson's agent is Scott Boras. Tells me what I need to know. Trade his ass.

How do you know Holliday is at least an MLB average SS defensively? Very, very few players in the minors have a league average MLB SS glove. Mateo does though, at the least.

Dude I've been saying this the entire season and completely agree with you. The ONLY untouchable guy in the majors or minors is Adley. Everybody else is on the trade block. Everybody.

If an ace is available via a trade you gather your nuts and do it. No more pussyfooting around here. World Series time.

I definitely understand your point. I would prefer to keep him and let him walk during free agency. I would prefer to trade him over sign him in free agency. Look dude, this is the Orioles. This is Angelos. We simply cannot be handing out 20 plus million dollar deals to guys already in their 30s. We don't have that kind of payroll. We can't do it. So the hell with it, he's under team control until he's no longer under team control. Go for the title.

Keep them until free agency or trade them. Both won't hit free agency until they are over 30. This organization is not the kind of organization that can hand out too many huge deals to guys who were already over 30. See Albert Belle, Chris Davis, Ubaldo Jimenez.

I need more beer

Auston Voth lol well we will see

Looks like we really scored with this Cano trade. It's like banging a hot chick from Tinder. A pleasant and great surprise.

It all evens out. What happens when we go 7-11 with RISP

It's time to start drinking beer, this game has been super frustrating and weird to watch.

His BABIP was around .400 coming into play. He's not going to hit .370, perhaps .315, not eve close to .370

Do you know what opportunity cost is?

Well then he needs to DFAed or traded cuz Mateo has won the role with his excellent play. This is Elias' issue. He's logjammed the infield and has not acquired the pitching we need to win.

1-10 with RISP sometimes it goes like that. Just haven't found the big knock to break it open.

unbelievable.

Would the White Sox actually walk the bases loaded to face McCann?

Starters with out pitches go for 30 million a year in free agency, not 8 million. Gibby is what he is, a crafty veteran who can keep you in games, but not dominate. We all knew this.

It was, but it also isn't. There is only 1 SS on the field and only 2 left side infielders on the diamond. It's a logjam. Somebody has to ride the pine if they don't get traded.

LMAO

At this point I'd keep Mateo at short and trade Gunnar.

They better reach that base safely. Ain't no way in hell should we be running into outs right in front of Adley. Nobody wants to pitch to this guy. Overall to start the season they have done a very good job of not getting caught, but that caught stealing really stings with Adley on deck in tie games. I do not like taking the bat out of the hands of our best hitter. Maybe I'm just too old school, but caught stealing REALLY irritates me.
