Cease would require more than that one would think. -
3 years of Kremer at 3m in 2025, Beavers, and a draft pick for one year of Cease at 14m. Cease will get a QO and O's get draft choice back. Then O's add 4th starter from FA. Padres are considering cutting payroll. -
Neither St. Louis or Houston have a history of signing big name FAs.

Those 3 teams have no fans and have not won anything in terms of titles. Baltimore doesn’t need nor should it strive to be New York or Los Angeles. But there is nothing wrong with trying to run a model like St. Louis or Houston. The last 20 years of history of MLB have shown that you are not going to win a World Series by not spending in the top half of the league. -
You literally just listed 3 teams that consistently go to the playoffs as mid-market, or lower, teams. Guess what, friend? I have a secret for you. That's exactly what the Orioles should aspire to be. I think some of ya'll are delusional about Baltimore's place in the pecking order. Baltimore has a hell of a lot more in common with Cleveland or Pittsburgh that it does New York.

First, IMO he should be given the entire offseason before being judge or this conversation being had. Second, if this offseason goes the way it appears to be headed, 2025 will probably be too late. This was the offseason for David Rubenstein to prove that things are different. If he fails to do that, I think his brand/business is going to have a serious problem. They already couldn’t sell out playoff games which in some ways shows fan disengagement/disinterest. Now if they were too follow that up by going cheap and bringing back a worse team to begin 2025 after being sold so much hype and promise from all the young players & prospects, I fear by 2025 he will lose even more fans/potential customers attention. And in the day and age we leave in, people are not brand loyal anymore. They may not come back. If the pan of the Orioles are to be the Rays/Guardians/Brewers type franchise which has to survive with a disengaged/disinterested market, they may well be on their way. I really hope this is not the case. -

I respect the sentiment that you may be agitated or annoyed by other fans/posters expressing complaints, worry, or anxiety. I get it. But the Orioles really can’t afford to alienate any fans or communicate to them through their actions “if you don’t like it, leave”. The already couldn’t sell out playoff games last year. Unless they want to truly become the Rays and be irrelevant in their own market.
