He could take a two year 30 from someone if he does not get a bite on the big one.

Would someone actually give him 2/30 after this season? Seems a stretch to me. The Orioles would never consider paying him $16mil for one year after the season he just put up, if there wasn't a chance at acquiring a draft pick.

[Es4M11]

On offense as well. I saw a piece done a couple years ago that showed position players take an OPS hit year 1 after returning from TJ.

Yea, but Matt's bat was never anything special before the injury. It's all of a sudden going to get better now?

He doesn't need to get better, his career numbers are good enough considering he plays Catcher.

If he was a right fielder I would agree with you.

It's going to be very interesting to see how this all plays out. Hope I am wrong on this one, but I think Wieters takes the QO, if offered.

We would give him 2/30

[Es4M11]

We would give him 2/30

Lord, I hope not. Rather put that money towards a Davis extension. And I'm not all that enamored with Davis.

Guaranteed.

[Es4M11]

Guaranteed.

I take it you would offer 2/30? If it was your money of course...

If I did it would be late in the process, to make sure he stays motivated all offseason.

1.Do you think 2/30 is market value?, is there at least one team that would offer that?

2. Can the Orioles afford that kind of contract?

3. Can Davis production be replicated for less?

[El Gordo]

I think ATL or WAS would offer him 4/60 M.

[Es4M11]

I think ATL or WAS would offer him 4/60 M.

I hope they do.

[abbott]

I think ATL or WAS would offer him 4/60 M.

please, he's not that good.

[Can_of_corn]

please, he's not that good.

Isn't there at least one guy every offseason then when you hear about the contract you go "What were they thinking?"

Was Shin-Soo Choo worth 7/130?

Not necessarily. Or even if it were the Angelos family's and I were in charge of it. I just know that several teams would and I believe we are one of them.
