Os Sign O'Day for 4 Years - It's official


Nevermore

Recommended Posts

His wife could easily relocate to any major city.

If the offers are close I see him staying in the area but I don't think he is solely focused on staying local.

Isn't she a reporter for FOX News in DC? If so, I'm not so sure that relocation to another city is necessarily easy or even something she would want to do. I'm not saying any of that matters to O'Day as far as his decision is concerned, as I really don't know how high a priority being close to where his wife works is to him.

Not idea if she would want to but I don't see why it would be difficult.

Pretty sure Fox has positions available in NY, Boston, Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, LA, ect..

DD can't pull the trigger on this it's to complicated for him. Why is it that teams are

planning and deciding there future for 2016 and the O's can't get out of the gate.

This is the fate of the winter meetings a lot of mumble.

You think Dan can't understand what it takes to get a deal done with a relief pitcher he has already extended before?

Was Dan hit on the head recently?

Was perhaps someone else hit on the head recently?

It is all a conspiracy to frustrate anxious message board posters.

Don't be so hard on yourself, Dan. It's okay.

Orioles recently made a formal offer to the 33-year-old right-hander that has been deemed “competitive” to some of the offers he already has in hand.

Whenever I'm in doubt, I assume the guy running a fairly successful major professional sports franchise with a budget in the hundreds of millions is much dumber than the messageboard poster who has difficulty putting together a coherent sentence.

    • Well said! Like you, I go back to about 1970 and the # of posts someone has is irrelevant to me. The fact that so many on here think there you know what don't stink keeps me, and I'm sure others from joining in more. I know what I know about this team and I don't feel the need to prove myself. And btw the closest that I've ever lived to Baltimore is the very most western part of Illinois.
    • To me none of that matters. Baker was throwing the ball well.  Had spin and velocity.  Go with that. Again, goes to show how many managers don't go by feel anymore and instead just go by what the book says.
    • You will get used to that around here.  The people saying you can't say anything about the Os unless you have played baseball for 20 years or been an Os fan for 50 years.   Bottom line is Baker, as mediocre as he is, was actually throwing the ball pretty well.  His pitches has spin and velocity and he had just struck out his last batter. To take him out for a complete and utter scrub?  And I say scrub in the best way possible?  Was ridiculous. Hyde was playing text book/by the book baseball instead of actually MANAGING BASEBALL by instinct and feels. And he got burned for it.  And it has not been the first time. 
    • Brecht has TOR upside.  We’re good at finding #3-#5 types just in developing them, but we need that TOR arm upside and develop. 
    • I thought Baker had a better chance of getting a strikeout. Even though he created that mess it looked like he could have worked out of it.  Generally not in favor of bringing in guys for bases loaded situations unless they’re absolute nails and have an extremely high K rate.  Akin’s K rate is higher this year but I still don’t believe he was the better option than Baker. 
    • We’ve been picking really athletic types when not picking high in rd 1. Position player wise.   2023 - EBJ, Horvath, Josenberger, Cunningham, Etzel Not that are prior picks haven’t been athletic, if you know what I’m trying to say. We don’t take plodders as position players.
