Any word on Sigmiester?

Can't talk about free agents.

Number of people he's looking to hire.

This is a big day in Orioles baseball history.  I like the transparency of ownership and would like to see more of it.  That said, if ownership is truly going to let Elias be “the guy”, then we don’t really need to hear from ownership.  Elias was very confident and basically said, “having autonomy was the only way I was taking the job”.  I like John Angelos.  Sons don’t have to be like fathers.  I live in Indy right now and although Jim Irsay is a freak, he supports his football team (financially, in the community, etc.). He is not Bob Irsay in any way.

He chose not to discuss "Free Agents" by name.

I was on the phone when he was asked about apparently but it seems he skirted around it. Maybe because he's still under contract by Houston and not legally able to talk about pursuing him. 

Thanks ,but his contract expired October 31.Maybe still working on a contract or maybe checking all his offers

It's only a big day in Orioles history if Elias can deliver.

Or if he is a catastrophic failure.

It sounded to me like they introduced him to Brady on Friday.

I mean, par for the course in that case.

Very impressed with Elias. My personal reading of the tea leaves: I think the MASN issue will finally be settled. I think Elias has total control. If Sig isn't the hire it will still be someone very good. The Scouting and Player Development staffs are getting expanded. And the Owners will not be involved in Baseball decisions.

I'm sure Tony will comment. Interested to see his take.

I'm talking getting caught spiking Davis' snuff with amphetamines level stuff.  Not just being bad at his job.
