He wasn't very good last year. With what he did in 2014, especially against LHers, I would have been more patient. Especially when no move was necessary.

I would have given Berry a full year as a reliever next season before giving up on him.

Orioles Designate Joey Terdoslavich

By Jeff Todd | January 21, 2016 at 4:03pm CST

The Orioles have designated infielder Joey Terdoslavich, the club announced.

.... The 27-year-old has put up a .264/.337/.423 slash in extensive Triple-A action, but hasn’t earned much of a shot in the majors. Part of the issue is that he’s not played at third base for quite a while, and his bat will have to do a lot of work for him to make sense in the majors as a first baseman or corner outfielder.

Claimed a week ago from the Braves.

Yep, but some think giving up left handed pitching is no big deal. Still think this was a dumb and unnecessary move.

It's almost like DD is just ignoring pitching completely on purpose this offseason. We better sign some more bats bc we aren't winning any pitching duels next season.

So they would have tried to sneak him through this week.

Offseason isn't over yet, but yeah.

    • Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.
    • Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?
    • I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.
    • This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.
    • I have it on dvr and I timed it four times. I got 10.75, 10.80, 10.74, and 10.78.
    • This is exactly what EDC said tonight     
    • My guess is more of a safety profile than they preferred. They clearly wanted Wiggins. They ran that pick up fast. And then when you listen to the press conference, the love for the player was obvious.
