Talk about thin skin.  But the Orioles GM made a good decision and picked a guy who can help the team now. 

Your comment was a bit unnecessary and your wrong.  I even noted Brad Keller put up 3.6WAR just last year.

Duquette would have never passed with First Pick in second round. We are truly in a new era of Orioles baseball lol

He said he would prefer a guy who could help in 3 years over a guy who could help now.  Your example did not prove their point.

So this pick can also sell tickets while singing.Livin' La Vida Loco.Orioles need to get people to Camden Yards. This is an excellent pick with fringe benefits.

You said 3 war was a pipe dream, that is what I was responding too.

The Orioles could always buy/trade for one of the other picks.
