feels like our AAA team is full of MLB castoffs.

Geesh-Mr. Negative:) Just teasing...

Yeah-but at least people are competing and our GM isn't asleep at the wheel. During the season, you aren't going to be trading for top prospects.

Thank goodness for this, because it means that it will probably be one more person ahead of that rotten, no-good SOB Lew Ford in line for a call-up from AAA-Norfolk to Baltimore. No one ......... and I mean NO ONE in my entire life has ever infuriated me as much as that good-for-nothing creep, Lew Ford. :angryfire:

Interesting. Maybe they think they can fix something, he's only 30. But in the last 2+ years he's hit like a utility infielder with a great glove. Unfortunately he's an outfielder with a shaky glove. And a Gold Glove for a season where he had a total zone of -23 and a UZR of -12.

    • They’ve spent the last 3 seasons blocking their prospects. Why would they stop now?
    • I think there's a huge case to be made for trading Mounty and keeping O'Hearn as your primary LH 1B, sharing duties with Mayo. Yeah, you lose some defense, no question. But Mounty has basically given up trying to hit for power, and if you can get a reliever for him in the off-season, you do it. O'Hearn gives you much higher quality ABs than Mounty, and you have to create some room for Mayo. 
    • This is my thought, the people that think there is gonna be this huge overhaul with the roster are going to be disappointed.  The big question marks are what happens with Mountcastle, O'Hearn, and Santander the rest of the roster is pretty set imo.  You then have to decide if Urias or Mateo is more valuable as the back up infielder and who is a right handed hitter off the bench that can also play the outfield.  I think Mayo takes over for Mountcastle or O'Hearn who i trade for a reliever that has some options or a prospect.  Santander gets replaced by Kjerstad.  The one difference I would make in your lineup is I move O'Hearn as well because you can't have Gunnar, Cowser, O'Hearn Kjerstad and Holliday all hitting together.  I would either keep Mounty or upgrade 1st base with some one like Christian Walker 3 years 45 million type deal.  
    • Really our SP2 is a guy that has averaged 120 IP the last two years? Lat injuries are a serious career threatening injury for a pitcher I believe Grayson's future is in the bullpen, he has shown for two consecutive years that his lat cannot holdup for a full season. It is not going to improve with age and multiple injuries
    • The Yankees are in the playoffs every year. When was the last time they won a World Series?  The royals were awful down the stretch.  Some day posters will realize the playoffs are a crap shoot and you just need to get in to have a chance.  Nothing can guarantee winning in the post season.  Last year’s team had a totally different vibe for most and the playoff games were less competitive.
    • Yes it would be foolish if we let him walk . He done great job as our # 1 starter . In game # 1 , he made to 8th innings and gave up one run, he done his job.  We need spend whatever it takes UNLESS his demands are  too outrageous 
    • I think if you're the orioles, you need to sit and figure out what you want to do. I would bring back Burnes, or at least try to. If you can't keep Burnes, which is looking to be a real possibility, do you trade for another TOR starter with the prospect pool we have or try the Free Agent route? QO Santander, but do you trust Kjerstad or stand outside of Santander's house with a boombox to woo him back? The FA market for outfield sucks this year. What are we going to do with the infield? Do you make trades to see what you can do to improve the roster in the next 2 to 3 years, because the infield has a glut of prospects. How patient are you with letting Basallo develop on the MLB roster if a spot finds itself open, if you want to field offers on Mountcastle. Where do Holliday and Mayo fit into next year's team, or do you try to sell high on Urias?
