What are the rules again? You can trade up to a certain percentage over your allotment? 

I am curious just how much more than can add.

Sure wish the O's had maybe 750K more to throw at these guys.

But we got the 30 year old guy in the gulf coast league with that money

I'm not talking on the national level. I would think the Mesas would be a lot more marketable in Miami than Baltimore. Last time I saw an Oriole pitching a local product was Joey Rickard with Royal Farms chicken!

Yeah the 10 fans who watch Marlins games are highly sought after by marketing departments everywhere.

Maybe spending the full amount of pool money was dependent on trading Adam Jones.

Might have been nice for Dan to have let that choice fall to his successor.

If they want another 750k pool money I am sure they can get it.

He did not want a successor.
