Well you do have a point. 

The SP is what it is; not much can be done about it and it could well be much better than last year. OF defense and OBP  are things that can be addressed. But so far just the addition of Smith does that.

I'd too rather have the Brach from Granderson trade over all of that honestly.

I hate to lose Brach where we can just sign Carter without giving up Brach.

How is Carter comparable to Granderson?

Trumbo before Fan Fest?

I'm OK with re-signing Trumbo, so long as the last roster spot goes to a good defensive OF.

By my count, we have would have two spots open if we signed Trumbo.  I'm guessing both would be filled by outfielders, unless they used one of them to have Mancini on the big club.

I hate complaining about the O's spending money, but why are we committing more money to another power hitting high strike out player? He just had his best year ever. We keep giving out bad contracts after career years (Davis, Jimenez, Hardy).

Ken Rosenthal says Orioles close to  signing Trumbo.

So much for Mancini getting at bats like ever...

It's not my money.   I doubt it's less than 3/$40 mm.
