Absolutely not, that is just insane money for a set up relief pitcher. The crazy thing is, last year it was near unanimous that we could not spend those kinds of dollars on Miller. This year it is near unanimous that we should back the Brinks truck up to retain O'Day. The answer is no, even hell no. If we pay O'Day and/or CD the money that is being reported then our GM is far worse than I could have ever imagined.
However, the way the O's rotation is going, so far, we will need a quality set up relief pitcher. I do think that O'Day will be worth it.

Question: is there truly word that O's management is shopping Zach Britton? I get the feeling that they aren't shopping him. He will be signing autographs at Fanfest. If he were being actively shopped, I don't think that they would invite him to sign autographs at Fanfest.

No ......but I'm certain it wouldn't preclude him from being at Fanfeat.

Is this D-Day? Funny,Svrugla and Connolly both have different takes.One sort of favors the Nationals and one the Orioles. I think that 3/38 mentioned ON MLBTR maybe should have been 28 million.

Or was a last gasp shot to get it up. Miller was 40 max to go where he did not wish to. Darren passed that up. So under 30 would not surprise me.

I hope he has a better return than JJ Hardy, the last guy I was happy re-signed. :o All indications are he will.

Do you think we'll trade Britton with this deal done?

      Or a guy that can just come up and give innings when the bullpen is shot after a doubleheader or even give a spot start and then be sent back down.  Is Pham a likely future ML starter, no, but he might bail the O's out of a pitching bind multiple times next year.

      Will the Orioles make the playoffs?

      By slakattack · Posted

      Saturday's game was epically bad and not the type of loss a team on the upswing into the playoffs would suffer and one that I certainly hate to witness. I couldn't watch most of the game Sunday, but I wouldn't DVR it and then peek at the score either, I don't think that I would ever watch if I knew the outcome of a game in advance. The surprise elation (Gunnar's bases loaded double) and the agony of the non-send and inability to hit a sac fly is what keeps me coming back, old fool that I am.

      Orioles attendance 2024

      By bpilktree67 · Posted

      Predicting what the attendance will do next year is like predicting Hurrican season in January.  There are so many outside factors that it is just a guess.  How will they finish the year, how much will the spend in the offseason, how many corporations want to get ticket plans,   how is the economy in 6 months, how do they play next season what teams we play and when, will teams like Red Sox, Yankees and big draws play well.   I also think one of the biggest factors is what corporations want to sponsor give aways and what time of promotions will they run.  If you look at attendance some of the largest attendance games minus the Phillies, Yankees games are for the best giveaway souvenirs.

      Brandon Hyde 2024

      By theobird · Posted

      I’m a big supporter of Brandon Hyde, but the last game against Detroit I think he made a mistake. Second and third, nobody out….I would have had mullins bunt. He’s a good bunter, and with holiday at third I think that’s walk off.

      So I guess Ohtani decided he was bored this year since he wasn’t pitching or playing the field, and decided to steal bases just to have something else to do besides hit.

      I’d say maybe they would have reached 2013 levels (2.357 mm), which would have been about another 76,000 fans.  I seriously doubt they would have reached 2014 (2.464 mm, another 183,000 fans).

      Great point. You are right Frobby. It wouldn't have been quite as bad if the Orioles dropped these series and they had to face Skubal both times but to be fortune enough not to get him either time and still lose 4 of 6 was even more disheartening.
