Recommended Posts

Some ot these guys are as good as gone, and some we may hate to lose.  It seems like a pretty big list:

 

Villar 

Trumbo

Davis

Nunez

A. Escobar

Bundy

Cobb

Cashner

Mike Wright

C. Perez

Susac

Sucre

J. Peterson

Bostick

H. Alberto

E. Young Jr.

G. Ynoa

Bo Schultz

 

Went looking for this list and figured I would post it.  Cuts are coming soon.....

Some of the guys on the list are not on the 40-man roster and hence don’t have to be optioned:   Young, Susac, Perez, Escobar, Sucre, Peterson, Bostick, Ynoa and Schultz.    Some aren’t going to be DFA this spring: Villar, Trumbo, Davis, Cobb, Bundy, Cashner.   So I think only Nunez, Wright and Alberto are at risk of being claimed if they are DFA.

Of course, we have three Rule 5 guys (Martin, Jackson, Araujo) who can be claimed back if they are cut this spring, and I suspect Escobar has an opt-out if he doesn’t make the club.

Lee

Sucre has an option left.  He didn't stay in the minors for 20 days in 2015.

I was hoping Lee had an option left.  It says 1on that site.

 

I feel like we could blow the whole thing up again and I wouldn’t miss most of the guys on the list I posted lol

I did not know that, but I don’t think it’s too likely he’ll opt out.    Can’t believe there’s a groundswell of demand for Sucre.   

The deal is reportedly worth $850,000 if Sucre makes the team and includes a March 22 opt-out, according to USA Today.

Lee has been optioned in three different years.  He is now on a minor league contract.

Maybe he had a fourth option?

If a player misses an entire option year due to injury or expends his third option year before he has completed five professional seasons (Major Leagues and Minor Leagues included), he can receive a fourth option year.

The 4th option has to be used in the players first 5 years in the minors.  Lee begin in the minors in 2011 so him window to the the 4th option expired a long time ago.

I realize you keep saying it, but I can’t count 3 times unless you count September or being sent back from AAA to AA,

 

I don't know why Rich missed him but he did.  He was optioned in 2016, 2017 and 2018.  That is three. and three is all he gets.

    • It’s O’s and Yanks. Good guys versus bad guys. Baby Birds up against the Evil Empire — and another trip to the post-season is in the cards. I’ve been cheering for the O’s and very specifically against the Yanks going on six decades, and I’m getting good at it. So, yeah. I’m fired up. Now ask me about hopes and dreams. I don’t think this Orioles team is going to make a run to WS this year.  They have scuffled, they have failed — but I’m reminded, even in the platinum age of data — baseball is still a game of failure.  And man, runners in scoring position over the last week, I’m not sure I want to know that number. They’re still my guys. As long as they’re in it, so am I.
    • Let's go Tampa! Actually, I'm fired up for the offseason.
    • Not fired up, per se, but engaged in the ramp-up to playoff baseball. On one hand, it's like the spring training phase of gearing up for playoffs. On the other hand, it's like the playoffs have already begun. We're qualified for round 1, which consists of the next 6 games. Even watching the other teams play now is entertaining, as they jostle for entry to the next round. 
    • I really think that Westburg is the difference maker for us. I don't know why, but the offense just doesn't run right without him... like an engine that needs a tune up. I'm glad he's back with a week to go in the regular season.
    • Don't be too hard on yourself OP. We've all been there. For me, I usually hit a frustration point mid-late season and then start to just accept things. Baseball is a very weird, very inscrutable game sometimes. I've driven myself a bit nuts this season with the Adley thing because it's one of those baseball things that just doesn't make a lot of sense. Same with the pitching injuries.  Each season is a little narrative. This one will be the year we had a bunch of injuries, the year of the RISP regression, the year of the rookie struggles, the year of the questionable Elias trades, the year we couldn't follow up on the 100-win season, etc. And yet - it will be a playoff year. And that's the only goal of every regular season: make the playoffs. Hopefully our playoff narrative will change this time around. 
    • I’m fired up for sure. We are finally full strength offensively and this stretch of games will be a great way for this team to gel down the stretch. The AL East is still attainable so let’s kick ass from here and see where we land!
    • Westburg is back. Everything is fine now. Enjoy the championship run.
