They do seem to be linked to him, but I've also seen things were they seem reluctant given the plethora of options they already have (though that's similar to the pre-Lynn Twins).

Yes it's true

Offer 4/56 and the offer is good for 24 hours only, if they say no, leak it to the press and move on.

I can't wait for him to sign with someone, anyone, so we can finally discuss other matters of great importance on this thread.

Heck, 4/60 is a pretty cheap dollar amount for a 2nd/3rd starter.

Ubaldo was 4/54...so I would feel fine about Cobb at anywhere from 4/55-4/60.

I do not think Cobb will be an Oriole. 

Nor do I.

Maybe Cobb is undergoing the Orioles' physical as we speak and they are keeping it quiet. Today and tomorrow would be a good time to do it with less media and player activity in Sarasota.

They aren’t going four are they? I’d be shocked.

I think they might include a vesting or team option for a 4th year. I can't envision them giving another SP a guaranteed 4th year.

Ubaldo was 4/$49.9 mm.   This year is a different, weird market.

I'd be shocked if they went straight 3.
