I will really miss watching the O's during save situations for the duration of his contract.

Hot damn, Rickli is back in business.

I guess Buck wants a "proven" closer. I just don't see the need.

[atomic]

NOOOO!!!! I would prefer the Orioles didn't spend any money over signing Rodney. Please don't let this be true.

[Os84]

Hot damn, Rickli is back in business.

At least he is citing someone this time.

[oriole]

Oh no…

I would not be behind a move like this.

[Don Quixote]

Ha ha...another significant addition as well?

[mdbdotcom]

He should make less than Balfour, so that's good.

Better make that popcorn shrimp. Rickli earns his living off his wealthy dad and also by being a server at Red Lobster.

[TradeAngelos]

Ya'll realize if we spend 5m or more on Rodney there won't be many marbles left right?

This move just screams of desperation and looks reactionary to say the least. Got to keep the charade going though, they are trying. They really are.

I thought he works in the FO of a MLB team

[Dark Helmet]

So how many weeks does this deal linger in purgatory, before we learn he failed his physical?

[TonySoprano]

I gotta say, this just isn't true. If you're cited by MLBTR and Rosenthal, then you have to be legit. What other standards for legitness are we looking for?

One of his recent tweets was complaining about the tip he got as a server.

I don't want Rodney. If he was just used as a bullpen arm in general, then I would be good with it, but I know Buck will pencil him into the closer role. Ugh.

I would rather give Stinson or Steve Johnson a bullpen spot.
