I'd pay a dollar to see that!

I joke but yes... don't REALLY poke the bear. This guy was in the intelligence service in the Army. He says it was just cryptography and clerical...

But he still knows 18 WAYS TO KILL YOU with his bare hands!

I've got another dollar.  Are we halfway there yet?

It irrationally irks me that so few remember the original reference.

They were never not going to pick it up.

It’s good to see that budgetary constraints didn’t prevent this move.

Excellent.  Now lets figure out 2B and 3B

I said it in another thread...Sign Ha-Seong Kim! I know it would be a bold move for the Orioles. But we aren’t set at 2B or 3B and his deal is not going to break the bank.

.100 OPS less than Alberto....so no! He’s a utility infielder at best. Why go backwards?

See, this is why I never understood the preemptive consternation. If the budgetary constraints are as tight as has been suggested, these are the types of moves that NEED to be made.

Yes he overperformed career batting numbers in the shortened season, but even despite that he's been a reliable 1-3 WAR player since 2013. He's an absolute bargain on his current contract. Whether it's beating the EV for budget in 2021 or leveraging this in-the-money contract/asset in trade, these are the types of things the club needs to do to move forward in the rebuild and it would be nonsensical to not pick it up.

I agree, just being my typical sarcastic self.

I’d keep Alberto and add the new Kim ....I’d simply cut Ruiz.
