In Hindsight What Would Have Been Your Perfect Orioles' Offseason?

[owknows]

I wanted an official Red Ryder, carbine action, two-hundred shot range model air rifle with a compass in the stock!

I got socks, underwear, and pink bunny pajamas.

I would have signed Bassitt and Turner.  I would not have signed Frazier or Gibson.  Would have signed Wacha on a 1 year deal with an option.  I would have traded for McCann.  I would not have signed Givens or traded for O'Hearn or signed Franchy.  Turner would split time between 3B/1B and DH.  Urias would probably see time in COF.  Open competition in ST for 2B job.  Probably would raise next year's payroll about $10 mill higher than it will be now.  Only long term commitment would be Bassitt.

That sad story made me think of "A Boy Named Sue" by Johnny Cash.

You know that's a two part story right?

Obviously you didn't know it was a two part story.

Give us Wacha and Mancini, and I think our depth will have us firmly in the WC hunt come deadline time.

No. As with most things, I was making an obtuse unrelated joke.

Oh I got the attempted joke, I figured I'd do you a solid and try and distract from it.

I'd post the song but it's more questionable than your joke.

Funny how we seem unable to judge yesterday by anything other than the standards of today.

Not safe for work and not very appropriate for this day and age.

Did you happen to see the label of the 45?  Where it was recorded?
