If we trade for Glasnow, we’re taking away from the farm. What are you willing to trade TB for him?

So what if you take away from the farm system?  That’s why it’s there.  And after all, if we have the #1 farm system and it’s “so deep”, trading from it should be easy.
 

As far as what you trade for him?  It just depends on the market.  I don’t think you will see anyone trading a top 100 prospect for him.  My guess it would be multiple guys outside of the top 10.

I would like to be able to sign him to a 3 year deal.  Pay him 5M to do nothing next year and then get him for 8-10M in 2023 and 10-15M in 2024.  Be great to make that third year an easily reachable option year based on IP incentives.  Something like 100 IP.

Also any player that Tampa is getting rid of we should not be interested in. Any player Tampa is interested we should be interested. If we are trading with Tampa we're doing something wrong if the goal is to be like Tampa.

Lol..this isn’t accurate.

If Tampa trades or non tenders Glasnow it is specifically because they don’t want to pay him 5M To rehab next year and then 8-10M the following year hoping he comes back from surgery ok.  It has nothing to do with anything else.

We are trying to be like Tampa. We shouldn't be paying $13M for one year of Glasnost either.

I agree with your point, but disagree that Glasnow wouid be getting a substantial raise in 2023 after spending 2022 rehabbing.   Most players get essentially no raise in arbitration after missing a year with injuries.

What if he wants to roll the dice on FA? Do you get a deal in place before you trade for him?

He's already making $4M. seems like your looking at at least $12M

    • You mean like spank the yankees a couple times this week??
    • I notice Coby Mayo listed as a RF. 
    • Astros admit it is a knee sprain for Yordan and he is out the Mariners series, with hoped for return at the Guardians Friday. He will play the playoffs and I guess benefit from that infielders on the dirt rule, as otherwise defenses might have been able to put all of them well on to the grass like Pujols at the end. Mariners got the must opener with "just" Bryce Miller - now they have Logan Gilbert and George Kirby tonight and tomorrow afternoon against Yordan-free lineups to try and make the weekend interesting.
    • I think a lot of fans frustration (well, at least mine) comes from a combination of this specific team and history.  This 2024 team has been extremely frustrating.  It is factually true that in the last 106 games they have only one walk-off win and only two wins when trailing after 6 innings. They have no series wins against an over .500 team since July 4th, and the worst record in the AL East since June 20. They cannot put together any long winning streaks, they have a real hard time generating a "big" inning, their all-star catcher has had an extremely disappointing second half, and their prized rookies have been far worse than anyone could have imagined.  So this has been without question a three-month plus malaise that feels like it just won't end.  Every time we want to feel enthusiastic or excited, we get shut down by a punch in the gut like Saturday and Sunday. The injuries have undoubtedly played a role, but I don't buy that they should have played this much of a role. Especially not on offense. The history part of it does not relate to the current team, but is a real pain point for fans like me who have been around for decades.  This organization last won an LCS game on October 13, 1997.  Almost 27 years since their last single game win in the LCS. Think about that and how much life has passed since that time.  Over those 27 years, 22 different fanbases have experienced their team in the World Series at least once.  If we go back to the last time the Orioles won the pennant, we can add another 4 fanbases to the list of World Series participants.  I think a 3 game sweep in last year's playoffs hurts us far more than it would Red Sox fans or Cardinals fans or Dodgers fans who are there regularly.  We have far fewer bites at the apple than most other fans, and every opportunity lost just resonates that much more.   No one should ever think the Orioles fans are spoiled, regardless of how much we may complain.  We are among the least spoiled fanbases not only in baseball, but in all of professional sports.  
    • Wowww. 4 years in a row, that is damn impressive. 
    • He's absolutely right, but of course, anything prior to the 2023 sweep means nothing to this current squad.  Last year we got a glimpse into this team with pressure. We all, including me, pointed towards their inexperience, but now we have a 2nd half of a season with mostly the same players wilting under pressure. Whether that pressure be because of the game situation, expectations, trying to do too much with other players out, or whatever, we have another data point of this current team struggling when it matters. Now, barring a complete a total collapse by the Orioles over the last two series of the year (not out of the question but the that the Royals and Twins are crashing too make it almost assured this team will back into the playoffs), this team is going to the playoffs. This will be the real test because gone are the excuses of injury with Westburg, Urias, Coulombe and Webb back and the team will most likely face another struggling wild card team. That should give some hope that this team will win at least a game, and maybe a series if things go right.  Crazier things have happened before in the playoffs, but only a miracle World Series appearance would be able to overcome this frustrating season and end the discussion over the lack of clutch of this core group of players.
