The All "Pretty Good" Orioles team

[Tony-OH]

For this endeavor, the player had to play for the Orioles for at least three years, have been retired for at least five years, can not be in the Orioles Hall of Fame. Did I miss anyone? Would you have someone different? No Browns qualify for this list, just Orioles. Palmeiro and Tejada are not eligible due to PEDs (Feel free to add them on you list though as I don't want to drag up that conversation).

1B: Randy Milligan 
2B: Jerry Adair
SS: Ron Hansen
3B: Leo Gomez
OF: Don Baylor
CF: Jackie Brandt
OF: Merv Rettenmund
C- Andy Etchebarren
DH: Terry Crowley
UTL: Mark McLemore
SP: Ben McDonald
SP: Erik Bedard
RP: Mark Williamson
RP: Alan Mills

BTW: Markakis, Jones, Jim Johnson, Machado will all end up in the Orioles HoF when eligible.

Jim Hardin

Storm Davis

No JJ?

He retired 5 years ago.

I also think he’s going to be an Orioles HOFer

Pretty alarming that Ben McDonald isnt in the O's Hall of Fame. JJ got elected in 21' I believe along with Devereaux, who I was going to bring up. Basically anyone who was an O's starter for a few years seems to make it.

Bedard won't make the Orioles HOF only because he was disliked. He was sensational in 2006-2007 and his play merited Orioles HOF status. People forget.

I don't think he cares.

Not sure where Mike Boddicker fits on this list but he was pretty good for the O’s!

Mike Boddicker, IMO, was the number one reason we beat the White Sox and Phillies.  In 83 and 84 he was as good as any of the great Oriole pitchers.  Had a nice career but never as good after those first two years.

JJ retire after 2018 which makes him ineligible.

Rhodes was pretty close to making my team, but I felt Williamson and Mills edged them out.
