Well some think that it was a bad idea to go the pu pu platter approach on the Manny trade, that we somehow could have gotten like, 1 legit stud prospect instead.  

Anyway, I think Kremer will turn out to be the best part of that trade.

Agreed, except that it appears Kremer will never be called up.

Let’s see where Keith Law ranks us before we celebrate too much

It’s not a joke.    You can’t openly trade for a player who isn’t on the 60-man roster, so any player who’s talented but pretty far from the majors becomes a PTBNL.    The O’s have 6 of them, most of

What about Diaz screams, "play me". Seriously. I'm curious.

Corn just likes to gripe about players not being promoted as quickly as he'd like them to be.  

I'm with you though, I don't see Diaz knocking down the door of clubhouse at Camden Yards with amazing stats and the ability to stay healthy.

His league adjusted stats.

His status as a top 100 prospect before Elias showed up.

The comments I've read about him getting bored when not challenged.

Who exactly was hanging out in Norfolk that needed the at bats?

You are just upset that Dwight Smith got sent down.

It's Elias's fault he cant play a full minor league season to generate a full seasons worth of stats?  It's Elias's fault too that Hunter Harvey was no longer a top 100 prospect too!

What are you talking about?

He's got 204 games and 856 PA in AA.

He's been in AA for three years.  Other than Elias who does that?

Look at the packages we got this deadline compared to what we got for those?

I think this ones better...?

We got a 5th starter type, a couple hitting prospects , and 6 question marks. I can’t imagine how this is better. Diaz was more highly rated than anything we picked up. The fact that we haven’t developed him doesn’t change the value at the time of the trade

You see the stuff he's been doing with the Lennon spawn?

Nah, I was pretty into 1990s Primus, and even have some Fabulous Frog Brigade stuff, but haven't paid that much attention to what he's doing lately.

My kids are probably the only ones in their middle school who are into (hell, have the slightest inkling of) Mr. Krinkle, Tommy the Cat, and Jerry was a Race Car Driver.

One of those hitting prospects is viewed fairly highly by a lot of people. The other has a chance to be an everyday type guy in a corner spot too.

Smith has stuff also that can improve and has been on the up and up this past year with a great spin rate.

Those 6 wildcards could present a legit piece or two as well. 

Im well aware of how they were viewed at the time.

He needs to be mad at service time rules, not the Orioles' GM's optimizing his behaviors concerning those rules.  Service time rules are the only reason 75% of the top 100 prospects over the age of 19 aren't in the majors.  In the decade before free agency it was common for 19, 20, 21 year olds to come to the majors with minimal seasoning.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Hallas · Posted

      Am I crazy for thinking Burnes isn't going to sniff Cole's deal?  I'm thinking like 7/260-280.  I don't think he's going to sniff Cole's deal.  For starters i dont think hes as good a pitcher as Cole was at the time of his signing.  Also, the Yankees aren't going to be in the bidding so that leaves the Mets, Giants, Nats, Orioles as teams that can afford him.  The Sox could too, but they're on the fringe of contention and might opt to develop more with the Yankees and Orioles solidly ahead of them in division.  Only the Mets from that list really seem like teams that would go over 300m for a pitcher, but they will be pressed for money because of the luxury tax.

      Agree a strong RHP bullpen arm that misses bats would be good to add. Looking at Spotrac I don’t see who it would be. Dominguez could certainly be someone that could fill this role.

      O's target? Roki Sasaki

      It looks like I misread your post as being about last offseason instead of the 2017-2018 offseason.  My mistake, but does that in any way affect my overall point - you know the part that I made explicit and you left out of your response - that all the old, reflexive Angelosian nonsense no longer automatically applies? I'm unclear on what you're driving at, especially if I have to go back to the 2017-2018 offseason when Peter Angelos might still have been giving input on running the team.  I think it's a stretch to try to draw parallels to those days, or even the John Angelos years, to David Rubenstein potential as an owner.

      Irsay stealing the Colts in a midnight sneak away is in my top five depressing B-More moments, as well as the dreaded We Are Family Pirates in the ‘79 series. Otherwise, it’s a good bad list.

      I forgot the name of the movie, but Jimmy Fallon was playing a BoSox superfan (tough role for an NY kid) and it was during the era of the ‘curse’ (right at the end of it actually) — a kid he was coaching asked, “What have the Red Sox ever done for you?” His character didn’t have an answer. But it made me think. The movie was out during the 14-years of losing seasons. I asked myself the same question about whether a lifetime of fandom was worth it. For me, outside of my family - 15 generations or more on the Eastern Shore - the O’s are also part of my DNA.  Win, lose, lose horribly, lose ugly, bad ownership, they just can’t shake me. All that said, I totally understand the frustration. It will take me a little longer to heal from this ugly exit to 2024.

      In the market and $$$ for SP = Mets, Cubs, BOS, WAS and SFG (depending on Snell opt-out).  That’s enough chairs when music stops for Burnes and Fried to cash in, and still ample for second tier Eovaldi, Manea, Kikuchi, Flaherty.
