No. This is Davies for Parra all over again. Why are we doing this???? This deal makes me want to vomit. A good lefty bat under team control for a guy who is about to be nontendered. Ridiculous.

I agree with you. Hopefully, it's just what Seattle is asking for.

Its hard to pin you down. Your "woe is me" act is all over the place. Perhaps you should shy away from sarcasm since it isnt very distinctive from your overall personality.

I wasn't aware you knew me personally. Interesting.

DH and C can be some combo of Wieters, Joseph, and Clevenger.

And preferably someone that can play defense in LF.

If any of those three could put up .262 .310 .449 .759 22 HR 64 RBI next year I'd be happy.

Read that the Os want another player from Seattle.

OK, my blood pressure is returning to normal. Better get something decent back. Even so, I don't like the signal this is sending, that we are willing to trade prospects with some hope of competing next year. The Parra trade was a huge mistake and really made me lose confidence in DD for the first time.

Clevenger is not a "prospect".

Steve Clevinger will be 30 on OD. Has barely sniffed the majors. Not a fan of Trumbo, but we're not giving up a prospect for him.

      Well I sort of disagree here. You said guys have been bad to questionable. I think that’s wrong. I just think a few guys have been awful and that has really hurt us. I would absolutely give Washington more time. Brade and Kane are well liked but doubtful they want to play them much right now. A trade should be considered if things don’t improve.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By OriolesMagic83 · Posted

      Yeah, I'd rather keep him over Soto.  I mean Soto can't start.  Yes Soto was dominant at times out of the bullpen but he was also gasoline on a fire out of the bullpen.  I would rather pay Suarez $4 or 5 million, knowing he can start or pitch in the bullpen than Soto, knowing he can only start and is liable to melt down when needed most.

      It is funny how much Hays (the pre-2024 version anyway) matches the type of player they'll likely look for. I doubt that reunion happens though.

      Weird thing about Suarez is that MASN had this being a 2 year deal when they talked about him back in April. ”The Orioles made another smart move with Suárez by signing him to a two-year contract in September. They knew what they’d ask from him and how it could contradict, and they didn’t want to give him any reasons to resist.” https://www.masnsports.com/blog/another-look-at-how-suarez-came-to-the-orioles

      Elias is refusing to spend money that Rubenstein has made available.  Do you have any sources?

      Outside Hamilton, I can't really think of any areas or invidivuals outside the line that have really stepped up.  Humphrey and Stephens have played okay but it certainly hasn't offset the complete zeroes that Eddie Jackson and Marcus Williams have been.  I don't think you want to pull Hamilton off SS even though he can handle deep zone assignments fine, because he's essentially a linebacker that can cover wide receivers and there's too much value in that in the box.  And I think that Roquan/Simpson look lost in pass coverage because the safeties behind them are playing like butt.  Besides Roquan wasn't ever really a great coverage safety, he was kind of okay at it but he was never like a Lavonte David or Fred Warner there.   I'm starting to wonder if we need to either trade for a FS and/or start giving Ardarius Washington more snaps.  He certainly doesn't look worse than Jackson/Williams at this point in his limited playing time.  In general i think safety is an undervalued position so we're likely to get good value in trade.
