[PressBoxOnline]

For Baysox manager Gary Kendall, the key to Orioles prospect Corban Joseph's future may be his ability to play multiple infield positions effectively. https://www.pressboxonline.com/2016/05/19/bowie-baysox-gary-kendall-says-orioles-prospect-corban-joseph-could-be-ryan-flaherty-type-player

Good, they can non-tender Flaherty and replace him with someone making the minimum.

Sounds like a plan.

He's never played short and has 47 at third, 34 at first. And he's 27. Maybe that would be more useful if he'd OPS'd .800 anytime except 2012. Last year as a 26-year-old in AA he OPS'd .701.

I'm not expecting it to actually happen.

Doing that would save 1/13th of Gallardo's salary next year. It might sound like a plan to you but it is a very bad plan.

I'm not saying Corban is an answer.

But if you can replace one fungible part with another one making less money you do it.

I don't see any reason why a Flaherty type should be making more than the league minimum.

Great! Maybe he can make the club and we'll have two players that everyone can whine and cry about

Sounds like a plan.

If there is a way to non tender or remove Flaherty, the Orioles should strongly consider it.

Right on, Weaver.

NO.. we let go of Flaherty, thus only leaving 1 Flaherty on the team. I'm hoping this new Flaherty is willing to change his name to Flaherty!

Just two?

.362 in the majors for a team other than the Orioles?

[Legend_Of_Joey]

I wish they had brought up Joseph instead of Sardinas and Vielma. 

[weams]

So he's a shortstop?
