To this end I feel like we always had a pretty short leash with him. From the first three starts as an oriole to the yo-yo-ing this year. I would have preferred we just left him in the #5 starter role and see what happened. And maybe he’ll get that opportunity elsewhere like you said, whereas here it always seemed like his role was changing. -
Santander to Trumbo isn't as good a comparison as you think. Their raw stats are fairly similar but Trumbo played in a much more offensive era. Santander is a much better athlete, defender and consistent player than Trumbo was. -

I'd rather he not brazenly cheat like Cruz did lol. Also, Cruz hit for average and got on base (.277 career AVG, .343 career OBP), which are definitely not tools in Santander's toolbox (.246 career AVG, .307 career OBP). -
I was very unhappy the Orioles did not resign Cruz. But I don’t feel that way about Cruz. Regardless of our feelings, the odds are strongly against Santander having Cruz’s success during his thirties. -
I don’t want to sign Santander to a long term contract, so we see eye to eye in that regard. But Santander is a better fielder than Trumbo at the same age and runs the bases better. And it shows in their relative value. I’m just pointing out that Santander has been a more valuable player, although he’s still too one dimensional to sign long term IMO.

Trumbo was also out of baseball by age 32 or 33, like many other completely one dimensional sluggers before and after him. Santander is just such a completely one dimensional slugger.
