@Can_of_Corn has provided the most level-headed reactions and perspective in this otherwise over-reactionary thread. @ Frobby as well, to a lesser extent. I looked at the AL roster.....it is stacked....with deserving ALL Stars, and I really can't make an overwhelming case for anyone to come off of the AL Roster in favor of an Oriole. And, for the record, I love watching Orioles play in the All Star game as much as anyone else. And, just because we have one of the best teams does not necessarily mean that we somehow have the most All Stars.....it could mean that, but it doesn't have to. Let's be happy we have a lot of really good players. Remember the year our only All Star rep was Ty Wigginton? Let's be happy folks.......there's enough in this world to get upset about, and this ain't one of them. -
The O's went 18-12 in that brutal stretch, then immediately went on a 6-game west coast swing where they went 4-2. Impressive. Do other teams have any 30 games in 31 days stretches in their schedule? -
Kind of frustrating how well Boston has played this year given expectations. And they always seem to have a good farm. -

With 2.5 years of control I can't believe the Marlins will shop him for dimes on the dollar. -

Luzardo has certainly experienced a down year compared to 2023. He has had some injuries (and currently on IL with a lumbar issue) and his statcast data is worse. The walk rate is still good but the K rate has dropped big time. He is still missing bats but players aren’t chasing as much. I still think this is a guy that is and will be on the O’s radar, provided that they are comfortable with the medicals. They still would have him for 2 more years as well and he doesn’t turn 27 until the end of September, so you basically will have him for what are historically his peak years. Miami has said they aren’t trading him but I’m not sure I buy that. Outside of 2023, he has had his share of injury issues and he’s a big risk to acquire but he’s also a big risk to keep. The question is, what will Miami need for him to decide to move him? Right now, his value is obviously way down. If you are Miami do you keep him and hope he gets back healthy, finishes strong and then you trade him for more in the offseason than you likely can get now or do you cut your losses, get 70ish cents on the dollar and make sure you get something of value? If the Os were to put a deal of Norby, Stowers, Beavers, Tavera and Urias on the table for Luzardo and Nardi, would Miami turn that down? Would they get a better offer? I think both answers to those questions are maybe. I think he’s a tough one to gauge but the team control and the fact that he is left handed is huge. Get him with our coaches and our program and on a real baseball team and things could be different for him..change of scenery type thing. I was luke warm on acquiring him before because I was worried about his health but if we can get him without trading our absolute best assets, that makes him even make intriguing. Add in getting Nardi and I think this is a package that could help the Os a lot. Its a risk and it certainly hurts some of your depth but it also opens up a door for Mayo and eventually Holliday and it keeps your absolute best prospects here. -

I would not be surprised to see Boston finishing 2nd in the AL East this season with the Yanks 3rd -
The O’s will play MLB games in a MiLB ballpark next year. For those who are thinking “road trip!”, consider this about Sacramento. While announcers were raving about the weather in Oakland this past weekend, in Sacramento July 5, 6 & 7 daily highs were 108, 110 & 106. I would imagine day games will be limited.
