In the Roch article this afternoon. He took the lead in negotiations with agent Barry Praver. Cant link the article right now.

Are you serious? Honestly there is no hope. Failing to fire Brady is failing to acknowledge that there's something wrong with the internal structure.

Just looked at when the O's  traded in July on MASN.  Its not there.

Cot's is pretty accurate.

It is recent. I am just telling you what Roch reported.  If you don't like believe  what he reports take it up with him.

It was actually from the Sun.  Took me less than 5 minutes to find once I started looking.

I have not read what he said.  I have nothing to take up with him.

Vice president of baseball operations Brady Anderson, part of the five-member contingent that attended the Oct. 3 showcase at Marlins Park, took the lead in negotiations with agent Barry Praver of Magnus Sports.

I just posted the link.  Read it and apologize for doubting me.  Really I feel like you should be able to use Google yourself.

Thanks.  I hadn't seen or heard that.   That makes the amount the O's saved in the Gausman deal 16.8m.   How much are a couple of core prospects worth.  I don't have the answer.

I would have googled what Roch said.  That was your source,.... right.

Dodgers had a payroll of over 200m for 5 years in row reaching as high as 291m.   And they have the market to support that kind of spending.

Yes I know.

You asked a question and I gave you a data point in your quest for an answer.

The following is from the Orioles 2018 Media Guide. I don't see any reference to player recruitment in the description of his duties:

BRADY ANDERSON - VICE PRESIDENT, BASEBALL OPERATIONS

Brady Anderson was named Vice President of Baseball Operations in February of 2013. In his role, he collaborates with Executive Vice President of Baseball Operations Dan Duquette and manager Buck Showalter on player development and roster management while overseeing strength and conditioning training and nutrition for the club. He began consulting with the Orioles on hitting instruction and strength and conditioning training in 2010 before joining the team as Special Assistant to the Executive Vice President of Baseball Operations in 2012...."
