Sherman: Arguably Worst SP Free Agency Ever

Not sure why you posted that in this thread but...

Special Free Agents are mostly bad.

But what if the ~11M difference in price isn't there? Are you fine going with an outfield of Rickard/Kim/Jones/random 500K player? Flaherty getting non-tendered to save a million? Dan selling another draft pick? Between Schoop, Tillman, Britton and Machado any money saved by players leaving is gone.

I think it would be best not to play the free agent game.

I still think a 2 year + option or 3 year deal gets done with the O's.

So do I, or something like it. I'm not sure how this thread got on to qualifying offers, although I'm certainly guilty in perpetuating the hijack.

Ultimately Wieters is back with the O's for considerably less AAV than a QO, but considerably more than the O's should spend. Buck gets his way, so be it. I don't approve, but right now nobody in the FO is asking for my input.
