The O's Most Difficult Cut(s) this Spring?

I would call up more of a middle class man's one tool player

He's a luxury item.

I think the toughest cut will be Schoop. He will go to Norfolk for a month to get a little more seasoning. The O's will discover Cabrera can't hit either, but at least Schoop plays great defense. Schoop will come back up and Cabrera will be released.

Schoop hasn't been taking the bus.

His spot isn't in jeopardy.

Seasoning is a euphemism for service time manipulation right?

Trading Matusz will involve the O's paying 1/2 his salary and accepting a middle relief marginal prospect.

You really believe that? Why wouldn't you just DFA him and outright him before that?

BTW, Tony-OH says there are no marginal prospects pitching middle relief in the minors.

What are marginal pitching prospects doing, closing?

Starting.

We overpaid Steve Pearce one year to be able to get him through waivers when he had not been outrighted yet.

Isn't the super-utility what Flaherty is for?

In theory. But I think the organization might be interested in giving Paredes some at bats at the major league level before/if they go back to Flaherty. I think Flash is destined for Norfolk, no matter what happens in ST.

Why be responsible for all of the money owed to Matusz if you could recoup half?

You must not keep up. Cabrera will be optioned to Norfolk and kept as an option before he is released. If he really is that bad it'll come next offseason.

You could start him at Norfolk. I like that idea.

Who would you take out of the rotation in Norfolk to let Matusz start? Why keep him in the organization at $3.2M?
