That would clear a roster spot for Pearce to come off the DL.

When do we have to bring Garcia back up.. that's coming up isn't it?

But yeah, Bud was my favorite pitcher to watch last year... he needs to just be DFAed.. I guess he's the back up starter, but him in the pen is just about worthless.

You shouldn't go around denigrating pork products like that.

Me, I would send money with him if I could get back a ziplock bag of dryer lint.

I like ham, but I'm guessing a lifetime supply is out of the question if an offer for Bud is on the table.

On a serious note, why didn't we trade him last offseason?

I'm all for letting him go. But over the winter could you really trust Jimenez to get it together? Getting rid of him could have easily created a hole in the rotation.

Only Bud Norris can come in with an ERA of nearly 7, pitch two+ innings and increase his ERA.

I think he's shot mentally. Therefore, a DFA is necessary. He's not going to turn it around, not here anyway.

This. He hasn't had a single successful relief appearance.

      Westburg exceeded rookie eligibility limits last year exceeding 130 at bats and more than 45 days on the active roster. On the plus side he might qualify as a super sophomore or at the very least avoid the sophomore slump.

      Westburg shouldn’t be, where are you seeing that?

      So since Westburg is apparently still ROY eligible, Cowser and Westburg may project to be the best rookie combination since Fred Lynn and Jim Rice in 1975?

      John Means 2024

      There were several and I was one them. I'm  on record as saying I was one of his biggest Apologists . You should feel good about yourself as you were able to see that Means would be imploding before our very eyes( which was an opinion or a guess, which is what I did) as far as feeling bad for me? Dont I'm plenty good enough to know I wont be able to guess right every time

      Orioles acquire Ryan O’Hearn

      Fantastic pickup by Elias and big kudos to O’Hearn for taking advantage of the resources to improve. He’s a great story.

      Given his injury history and what’s happening right now, Means may make more money as an Oriole next year than as a free agent. He may have to settle for league minimum as a FA but would do better than that in arbitration. Heck, unless he’s effective at least a little this year then the orioles might release him after the season to avoid paying more than league minimum. I hope Means recovers, very much so, but this scenario is possible imo.    ps. I guess I ignored the part where you said if Means thinks he is healthy.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By Billy F-Face3 · Posted

      What I'd like to see in the next game Holliday plays, is for him to keep his eyes following through on the ball when he swings. In the last game I saw, he was yanking his head off the zone when he swung and couldn't see the bat to the ball. He was missing wildly and it wasn't even competitive. So, keep your eye on the ball! Follow all the way through! If your swing is so violent that it's yanking your head off the sight of the ball, then adjust your mechanics because you can't hit what you can't see!
