Orioles avoided arbitration with... (leave some very big differences as well)

[Can_of_corn]

Yes sir.

If he was a regular case...maybe..but he isn't.

[weams]

He's a super 2. He gets three more trips. If the O's let him settle at anywhere near 3.2 then they will have to trade him after the 2016 season.

Maybe after the 2015 one if he is halfway good.

[Can_of_corn]

I still cant get over Pearce's asking number.

Six win season.

Heck this might be his only big payday.

WOW

Yikes. We should just go to arbitration here. Let Smouse hammer Bud.

They should trade him after 2015. They will have to trade him after 2016.

Assuming he pitches well of course.

Like i said 1 year wonder. I don't blame him for asking but i bet the Orioles fight this one out.

[waroriole]

He's making $500k. $3.2m is outrageous.

It's his first arb eligible year.

Then they will have to trade him to the Rockies and everyone knows that Coors country.

They will settle at slightly more then the halfway point.

It's the Oriole way.

He'll end up Royal then.

I don't get why De Aza and Flaherty didn't get deals done today. Not far off.

Dan's busy.

Stone cold killer deserves a good raise, always under-rated !

[Can_of_corn]

Some of the ask numbers are pretty amazing and help me to understand better the settles that happened earlier today. Bud's number is particularly galling.

Someone needs to tell Bud he was the #5 starter on this team last year.

Isn't he in Canada? Didn't he join a board of directors up there?
