Deadline Deal Orioles Mega-Thread

[Tony-OH]

If O's can't get a future #3 starter with TOR potential for Britton then they should be looking elsewhere.

Yankees #4 , #8, and #12 rated prospects according to MLB

Yep, but two of them are out for the year.

Billy Beane has said he is looking ahead to making the team a contender when they have a new stadium.   I don't think a site has even been selected yet, let along breaking ground, so he doesn't mind picking up two guys who are on the shelf with significant injuries.

Jomar Reyes and Ofelky Peralta.  They might not turn out to be anything but they did have really good seasons last year in Delmarava at 19.  

I think we've signed one guy in Latin America since 2014 that was over 100k.  

What did we pay for Miranda? Of course, he is gone now.

So they needed us to help them get Gray.

But what if no one is offering that?   We keep him?

No recent news on Britton.  The calm before the storm?

Calm before the calm, I'm guessing.

Anything that comes out of Rosentroll's mouth I take with a grain of salt. Morosi is the only guy over there with a clue. Rosentroll is like the Jimmy Olson of MLB.

Morosi also has is twitter pic with Adam Jones from the WBC.  That alone makes him better than Rosenthal.

Shoulda traded him over the winter...

You can't trade the best Closer in the game and one that had arguably the best year in baseball on a contending team the Orioles hoped to be.  Like it or not perception is a big part of making moves.

Haven't heard anything from Dodgers ....I think they are working on a deal with O's
