Why would you make a list of guys who are mostly already not on the 25 man roster?

Players move on and off the 40 man roster during the season.  Lucas was off now he is on.  Wotherspoon was on and now is off but could be recalled again.   I just keep them on the list to track them.

But you also have guys on there who aren't on the 40 man roster

Yes, but they could be at some point.  Gilmartin is not the 40 man roster, but was last year.  He is pitching pretty well at AAA and could be placed on the 40 man roster in the future.

If you want a list of just players on the 40 man roster, nothing stops you from making one.

Just saying the thread/list don't make much sense. If you are talking about guys with options who could make room for someone coming off the IL, I'm not sure why someone who is already in the minors and not on the 40 man roster would be on that list. Moving that person would not open a spot.

Does anyone else get confused between Josh Rogers and Josh Lucas?   They’ve both shuttled between Baltimore and Norfolk.

Lucas: 3.48 ERA in 5 appearances in Baltimore (2 separate stints); 5.87 ERA in 6 appearances in Norfolk (2 separate stints).   Is 28 years old and was signed as a free agent this offseason.   RHP, strictly a reliever.

Rogers: 12.29 ERA in one appearance in Baltimore; 9.41 ERA in 9 starts in Norfolk (2 separate stints).  Is 24 years old and was acquired in the Britton trade last year.  LHP, exclusively a starter in the minors, was used in long relief in his Baltimore appearance.   

No real reason to confuse them except that they’re two white guys named Josh with nondescript last names.    I don’t think either is a long-term piece of this team.

I would not be surprised if Lucas becomes the O's closer in the near future.

Rogers seems like the next option to be taken off the 40 man as he has been brutal in AAA.  I had high hopes he could be a serviceable lhp for us either as a starter or long man based on last year although his stuff wasn't great but i thought as a lefty he could atleast be a long man but man between him and Ortiz they have both been just terrible in the minors.  Ortiz has better stuff which may give him more time then Rogers to hang on too.  I don't think anyone takes Rogers right now if we dropped him from the 40 man as bad as he has been.  I would have dropped him or Ortiz over Ramirez.

      An early look at the 2025 Bullpen

      I wouldn’t call that a “real strength”. Trade Perez and get a better arm to replace him.

      But that RH bat played a position that we had locked down because of the presence of Urias and Westburg. He wasn’t going to come up and play. If you wanted him to be the RH DH, that’s fine but the Os also lost Mounty and Mayo didn’t come up and play well. They decided that having those 4 players was enough depth to use Norby to get pitching. I don’t see that as being wrong at all…no one to predict what would happen after. They had that “position” locked down. Jimenez was just a lottery ticket and really he played a lot more than they probably thought because of all the injuries that occurred.

      The 2025 bullpen looks like a real strength. R - Bautista, Cano, Dominguez, Webb L - Coloumbe, Soto, Perez, Akin I like having the 4 lefties with the WALL and that should be enough for the regular season.  It allows us to really matchup and take advantage of our ballpark. That’s a pen with 4 former All Stars. I believe Akin will still have an option since he made it through the season without burning his last one.  He’d be the guy to go down to AAA for a longman/fresh arm when needed. Maybe we get our lightning in a bottle reliever throwing near 100 in McDermott or Morfe later in the year. I don’t think we see much turnover here.  However, I could see Elias electing not to bring back Soto for flexibility reasons, more so than salary reasons.  Could we actually “sell” Soto for something of value?

      Co-hitting coach Ryan Fuller, Fredi Gonzalez and Jose Hernandez let go

      By eddie83 · Posted

      https://www.masnsports.com/blog/reviewing-orioles-recent-coaching-history-and-thoughts-on-what-s-next From Roch.    An immediate reaction to the current openings is that Triple-A Norfolk manager Buck Britton could be a candidate to fill one of them. They also could seek a bilingual coach now that González and Hernández are gone. Britton’s contract expires at the end of the month and he’s close with the young hitters who passed through Norfolk. He’s also gained the respect of other teams in the majors and could move on, which would leave the Orioles with another task.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      If we don’t resign Burnes then what are we doing as a franchise?  It’s hard to see any difference between Rubenstei and what we had before. A case can be made for not bringing back Santander.  Heck, even Soto, but with our SP injuries, and the way we’ve spent our draft capital, the plan looked to be to always land that big time SP from outside the org.  Well that happened.  Gotta keep him now.

      He called it a solid trade at the time it was made and he’ll die before he admits he was wrong about something.

      There was a need for a RH bat. We used a major league ready RH bat (who was also serviceable in the field) in the trade for Rogers. We added a bad RH bat, who was not able to play defense at all.  Neither Eloy or Rogers were able to keep their spot on the roster, and we had two guys go down that would have opened spots for Norby. So yes, it does have something to do with the Rogers trade.
