Who comes up? 

Who leaves from the rotation or pen

Sad to see Kim go but he wasn't getting playing time. I guess we bring up Santander to start his 90 days of service time?

[ReclaimTheCrown]

No clue why we don't just DFA Kim and keep Cleavinger, but who knows with this franchise. Just an endless stream of mysteries.

Either way, we start Santander's clock soon, I think.

[SteveA]

Gentry probably comes up until Santander is ready.

And maybe Ubaldo finally gets DFA'd?

Or do we do something dumb like put Ubaldo or Miley in the pen and send Castro or Hart down??

I like Hyun Soo.  I'll miss him.  But I already missed him.

So what now... 8 man pen or 6 man rotation?  #Ubaldostays

Kim will be an All-Star next year and Cleavinger will be a shut down reliever.  Book it.  Duquette trading with McPhail is just not fair.

Will Kim be in the USA next year?

So we get Hellickson plus cash to offset difference for international slots, Cleavinger and Kim. 

Not a bad move. Wish we would have done it a week ago. 

Pointless move.

It's possible that Hellickson could be flipped.  Just my opinion.

Has to be a starter. Hell I don't know.

Buck will probably drive him to the airport personally and pack his bags. 

First non stop from DFW--PHL is 6 am.

Get through the season? What does that even mean?.. who cares who the SP is at this point. Sell and stop worrying about wins and losses this season, it's about the future.

I agree. We either want to make the playoffs (longshot but a 10 game win streak would make me believe) or lose as many games as possible so we can draft a Machado type player.

[Moose Milligan]

It'd be awesome, for once, if the Orioles could see a guy and be like....yeah, we can fix him.  A tweak here, a tweak there and...viola.  A 20 game winner and a Cy Young.

But oh no, that happens to guys that LEAVE the Orioles.

Sure, we don't owe him any money. Don't expect it though.

Not if you want to keep a $160 million team from losing 90+ games.
