The other four put together will only cost about what Manny and Britton did individually.   I still bet we don't end up arbitrating with all four.

And Brach could still be traded.

$10.05 mm for Tillman.

The big three for ~33M.  Not bad.

With the big 3 locked up, that's all that really matters. If the other 4 want to go to arb, so be it.

I'd love to sit it on the Joseph case.

[El Gordo]

Probably settle with all of them prior to arb.

I think he and Schoop will be traded.

Well there's a hot take for you. Who the hell is playing 2B?

Flaherty agreed to terms.

I have no idea. But I don't think there will be three trials.

Are we sure that's not 10.5?  Not the biggest deal, but 450k nonetheless.

Per Dan Connolly:

Quote

The Orioles have four arb-eligible players remaining — but were still working on potential deals as the 1 p.m. deadline to exchange arbitration figure passed.

So, it sounds like we could still hear news that some of these guys have settled later today.

Several reporters saying $10.05 mm.

Okay.  Roch tweeted 10.5, but he could be wrong.

I remember how long it took to reach an agreement with Gausman when he signed.  I could see him going to arbitration. 

To me it wouldn't be worth it in year one, the stakes are not worth the possible bad will that could result.

I'm also hoping they De Aza Joseph, just because, at the heart of things, I'm not a nice person.
