Rule 5 protection list to be submitted by tomorrow

[weams]

Well. Go Joe.

Anyone notice what Richard Rodriguez is doing in the Dominican Winter League

2-0, 0.73 ERA, 6G, 12.1 IP, 8 H, 2 BB, 12 SO, 0.81 WHIP, .174 Avg against

I really think the O's should protect this guy.

Dick Rod left unprotected.

We may regret this in 9 months.

I like Rick Rod better. He's close to being Rick Rolled

Somebody better wake Dan up, his favorite time of the year is coming up.

Wherein he signs players and gives up picks?

[Legend_Of_Joey]

Gunkel I can understand a bit. Liranzo? He just came back from one injury, had a decent season, then got another (or was removed from the AFL so other scouts couldn't see him.)

Thought there would be a position player or two added (Little Yaz, for one.)

[scOtt]

Actually that time would be late JAN early FEB...

[Can_of_corn]

Wherein he signs players and gives up picks?

That's months away.

[scOtt]

That's months away.

Like I said.

[MDtransplant757]

That's months away.

I don't know if we'll sign anyone this year.

No one big from outside. Hopefully Tillman. Manny. Schoop...

Manny and Schoop are on my list due to the lack of depth at 2nd and 3rd. If Tillman gets a Gallardo type deal, I can be ok with that. Anything else is an overpay

Still have Schoops brother in Bowie. Could use him as a bargaining chip...

Schoop's brother is older than he is and isn't that good. Pass

Pretty sure Tillman will be leaving if all the O's offer is two years $22M. Literally every team in baseball would offer him that.

[wildcard]

Tillman is in the 4/60 range maybe with a vesting option. He is a solid #2 who may be a #3 on this team when Gausman and Bundy pass him.

Dec 2nd is the next move date. Worley and McFarland are probably non tendered. Then Dan picks a Rule 5 guy at the end of the winter meetings.

The catchers are flying off the board which may cause him to move a little faster that he wants to.
