I am not sure the 60 is full.  I think he became healthy while on the  IL and they released him instead of pay him.  He was on a minor league contract.

The thing about Stevie is he hit right-handers in the majors in 2019 much better have Alberto, Valaika or Urias,  He can play 2B as good as any of them.  That is his pluses.  His minuses are he is 28 on a rebuilding team and he can't hit lefties.

The 60 is full since Mason Williams and Dilson Herrera cleared waivers and were sent to Bowie. Both are more useful in Bowie right now then holding a roster spot for an injured player (same with Ty Blach.)

Trumbo treatment?

Sure. 

Even though I'd be super pissed if he's still on the roster in 2021 if there's a short season, I get it.  It'd save them some money, and while I disagree that saving some money is more important than competing and getting younger players at bats....I get it.  

In previous seasons, one could make the argument (I wouldn't) that Davis wasn't taking away significant at bats from some top prospects.  But now with the emergence of Mountcastle and Stewart and hopefully a Mancini return next year, there's no good reason to have him around.  Elias has to make the Angelos clan understand.

      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.
