Cool. I expect the bay leaf to DH, and play the occasional LF to rest De Aza against lefties.

Any word on who is coming off the 40-man yet?

Lavarnway. Fourth team this winter.

We don't know that someone else will claim him. He made it all the way to the O's last time.

I hope we get to keep him. The Cubs like him though.

Cubs already have a full 40 man and DFAed another player today. Can't imagine they would make space.

We had the third best record?

Didn't the O's own the tiebreaker against the Nats?

Yes, we did.

Don't worry, if he adds 100 PA that's still roughly half a season's worth.
