I agree with you about not enjoying watching Bundy pitch. I think it's because I had such high expectations for him and his body language on the mound always seemed kind of odd too. 

For me it wasn't about the expectations, those went out the window the second he had TJ.  

It was all about the amount of dingers he gave up.  And when he was bad, he was BAD.  Sure, he turned in some nice starts and had a great slider but a 4.67 career ERA....I'm not upset.

That seals the deal. I am no longer an Orioles fan. I’ve been a fan since 1982 and a season ticket holder since 1996. I officially will not be renewing my plan next season nor will I watch on tv ever again. Elias is officially the worst gm in history.

Wow, Dylan Bundy was the straw that broke the camel's back for you?

I don't understand how trading Bundy is the final straw

Because we need familiar faces to root for while this team sucks!!!!!!1111111 We need to at least know who the guys are on the team that's going to win 55 games next year!!!!!! Can't have a team that wins 55 games without guys we're unfamiliar with!!!!!11111

You need to follow more Orioles fans on Twitter.

Twitter isn't real life.

But also, who should I follow? I mainly follow news people, sports people and people I find funny. If I am curious about fan reaction to a move I will look through the replies from time to time, while keeping in mind that Twitter isn't real life.

Or is this just a response to tell me that the joke flew over my head?

    • You gave the arbitrary date of July 19th.
    • I don't have a Baseball America subscription, but you are able to read an in depth analysis on Coby Nayo's batting metrics here https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/coby-mayo-jackson-holliday-headline-10-statcast-standouts/ Interesting stuff.   He looks like a guy we should consider holding onto. 
    • It's not the next 18 days, it's the next 30 days less the AS break, roughly 15% of the season.  My point is that a lot will change in the last two weeks before the trade deadline.  It's a little early to call a radical seller's market where Tanner Scott is the clear front-runner.
    • Unnecessarily Socratic response, FRobby. There is no position more important to the Orioles right now than backup catcher as crazy as that sounds.  The incumbent is hurting the team with his bat.  Basallo will some day soon create a great split responsibility with Adley and another big bat at least vs RHP. 2B?  All eggs are in the Holliday basket, but if he can't stay healthy this year and Mateo falls off as in the past, 2 great backup options exist 1) Norby or 2) Westburg moves back to 2B and Mayo is promoted to play 3B. CF? Of all CFs in the game I'd trade him for Judge (if I could be sure the contract would not screw up the chance to sign Gunnar) and I'd trade him even up for Jackson Merrill who is 21, from Baltimore area, and hitting well for the Padres, but is another LHB.  I wouldn't trade him for Duran, for example, who is 2nd in WAR among CFs at 1.4, has good OPS, but is approaching age 28 despite 4 years of team control.  No way I trade him for Robert as I have detailed elsewhere.  I think the Orioles are better off for now, using some combination of Cowser, Mullins, and Hays in CF rather than trading Basallo for anyone else not named above that comes with a significant price tag. Corner OF spots, DH, 1B are jammed now with players/prospects who can hit (Cowser, Kjerstad, Mountcastle, Santander, O'Hearn, Stowers).  No additions needed. 3B?  Westburg is having a great year and Mayo is ready and should be promoted which puts pressure either on 3B to move Westy to 2nd or the already jammed corner OF/1B/DH group, but he is a much-needed RHB.
    • I think you have to add Grayson to this list. 
    • Scherzer doesn’t carry injury risk?  Surely you haven’t followed his last couple of seasons very closely.
