He was actually an ok reliever last year.

As far as the inaccurate stuff, my impetus to start actually writing about prospects was reading scouting reports that just seemed like the writer had never seen the player before. I thought, I might not be the best evaluator but at least I can tell people what’s actually going on, and maybe learn to evaluate as I go.

Bud had a good 2014 for us, and I wish him well, as long as he isnt playing the Birds.

Good for you, too many people want to retweets and embellish it a bit.

So many places I could put this.

In other news 5% is greater than 2%.

Hosmer to Padres 8 years 144 million.

Odorizzi traded to Twins for Twins SS prospect Jermaine Palacios. Palacios was the Twins 27th ranked prospect per MLB Pipeline.

If the O's wanted Odorizzi they could have got him. We have traded with the Rays in the past, so it's not like there wasn't an open line of communication.

Have to wonder if this takes the Twins out of the Tillman market? That would leave it at the O's and two "mystery" teams - so really probably just the O's.

Right. So who's left? No one else comes to mind on a MLB deal. I'm sure there are plenty of suitors for a MiLB deal, but i have to imagine the o's get first preference in that situation.

Maybe, but I think Tillman would at least like a chance to win this year. However slim it may be with the Orioles. Philly certainly possible

Thanks. I could see it if they are offering MLB deal and a rotation spot.
