Orioles Offseason 6th Best in Net fWAR Gained

[LTO's]

Lodged in the middle of this article on the Dodgers offseason is a chart detailing how much fWAR MLB teams have lost/gained in free agency. Although it's obvious the Orioles haven't had good enough players to experience a big loss in FA, I still expected them to be in the middle of the pack given how quiet their offseason has been.

It helps that the players we lost were worth -1.0!  Good old addition by subtraction.

I'd like to see that chart if we signed Chris Bassitt and Josh Bell instead of Kyle Gibson and Adam Frazier.

It would be 5.4 instead of 4.

Interesting, this is puts things into a new perspective a bit.

These numbers don't present the full picture of what the Orioles lost because they ignore Odor's intangibles.

Frazier and McCann are very veteranous.

Yeah, almost like everybody should calm down.  The Free Agents we do or do not sign are not going to make the difference.

Just remember past performance is not always indicative of future results.

Oh, okay, this makes perfect sense.  Now I know what the "f" in "fWAR" stands for.
