Looks like there will be no international draft & QOs will remain

MLB and the Union failed to reach an agreement on a framework for an international draft.

So the international signing, and the free agent qualifying offer system, will remain intact for the remainder of the CBA (through 2026).

Since we are finally diving into this market as an organization I think this benefits the Orioles more than I would have thought in the off-season. I believe mlb clubs would have spent a ton more with either of the proposals drafted by mlb and mlbpa. Not too mention we are just now building out the facility in the DR.

Could (should?) change the calculation for Mancini.

How?   Could he even get a QO?   I'm not sure how that works with a mutual option.   If he declined it, would we then be able to QO him to get the draft pick?

I'm disappointed, at least in the international draft news. I've always wanted an equal playing field.

Who would the O's have been able to draft with their top draft picks? Who might they have drafted #1 in 2019? Who might they have drafted #2 in 2020? Who might they have drafted #5 in 2021? Or who would they get this year at #1?

Or geez, what about the lost 14 years from 1998 to 2011?

I'm pretty sure he can reject the option, and they can offer the qualifying offer, which he can likewise reject, and become a FA, eligible for draft compensation upon signing with another team.

Yes but there’s no way they’d offer him a QO. 

Maybe.  It depends on what kind of contract you think he's getting in FA.

If the QO is like 1/18, doesn't it make sense for him to take 3/36?

Does he get 3/36?

There just no way Trey would reject a Qualifiying Offer. 
 

20million for 1 year? Trey’s agent would need to be decertified.

Well, it was 18.4 last offseason, and dropping.

I think he could command 3/36 on the open market.  I think he might prefer that to 1/19.  I don't think that is unreasonable.

That scenario would net the O's a 3rd pick.

Are the QO rules the same as they were in 2017 or is it market dependent still?

The draft pick coming back is dependent upon the total value/average annual value of the deal.

With Mancini, to the best of my understanding, if he signs a FA deal exceeding 25 million total guaranteed, the Orioles would get a third round compensation pick.

I feel pretty strongly that Mancini will sign a multi-year deal in FA that exceeds 25 mil total guaranteed.

Gotcha. Depends on what the offers are as to whether I'd pull the trigger on a potential deal or QO'ing Mancini.

    • Friedman and Dombrowski set a high bar, and the Astros are post peak.    Atlanta probably doesn't want to hear much about the Orioles misfortune. The Orioles level of play has been in the toilet half a season but I still think the good version of themselves is the AL's best positioned team to outplay the NL's best even this year.     We'll see if Soto and Judge are more than a 1-year thing, but even so that club has vulnerabilities.
    • I agree it's unlikely but not completely far fetched. I don't think he is a lock to get more than $20M in AAV, so he could decide to take it and then hit FA if he has a good or even better year. His talent level is in a similar range as the players who have accepted: Joc Pederson, Jose Abreu, Wieters etc.
    • Sort of a funny game to have come directly after a discussion of the merits of bunting with 1st and 2nd with nobody out. Glad Bob Melvin and I don’t see eye to eye on that issue…didn’t work out in his favor today.
    • Let's be honest, Gunnar ain't finishing second either.
    • Yeah, I don't think the Orioles' struggles against NL teams is very meaningful, but I do think the NL is stronger this year.  All the NL division leaders have looked formidable and steady throughout the season.  But also the Padres and Mets have kicked their seasons into another gear and have really impressed over the past couple of months.  Compare them to the Wild Card teams in the AL, and they just appear more formidable on paper.   Also the DBacks are pretty much outhitting everyone right now -- though that's been offset by their not so effective pitching.  
    • For sure he is out of consideration as the MVP favorite to copy Cal.  Of course,  Cal didn't have an Aaron Judge to compete with.  The runner-up in MVP voting in 1983 was a guy named Eddie Murray.  Eddie had more HR, more RBI, a higher slugging and OPS than Cal, but Cal had a higher WAR and batting average (.318 to .303).  I wonder if Eddie is bitter about losing the MVP to Cal?  A case could be made for either one.
