Which I don’t get when they had no idea where he was playing. 

Ranges between 46 and 85 innings, so bullpen projections it appears. None of the systems like him, only ZiPS has him under a 5 ERA. Low K rate, high walk rate, no dominant groundball rate to go with it. His ERA looked ok last season, but by all other numbers he didn't actually pitch that well.

Weams with Cobb the Orioles seem to have a legitimate rotation and a much better shot of competing. Other than having a real lead off hitter I'd say we are now much improved. Do you think we have a chance of competing?

He was lying in the weeds, I swear he was.

High walk rate? Still had a good groundball rate   

We shall see how he performs.

Literally have the album playing through right now while finding out the news of the Cobb signing.

I usually just lurk and don’t post until the season starts but man I have to chime in and say how happy I am for this news. This changes my season outlook in a great way. 

Can’t wait for next Thursday. Let’s go O’s!
