With about 75 percent of the season complete, I believe Henderson is in the lead for AL Rookie of the Year; he’s the front-runner among position players. 

Yennier Cano has been one of the best set-up relievers in baseball this year. 

Grayson Rodriguez’s overall stats would indicate he doesn’t belong on this list. But his overall stuff says he should be at the top of this list.

I still think Gunnar needs to get his average up to .250 and Yoshida's needs to fall below .300 for him to have it locked up.  Writers still like the old school stats.  Bibee is very underrated in the race if Cleveland somehow makes the wild card.  He has been consistently excellent.

Cleveland isn’t making the WC. Basically no chance of that.  They could win their division though.

Also very unlikely, but stranger things have happened, and definitely more likely than a WC being the AL Central is a dumpster fire.

As long as the Orioles are winning, and especially if they are rhe 1st place team in the American League, the national media will take notice and be more inclined to consider Orioles rookies for Rookie Of The Year. 

Agreed but Bibee could be 13-2 with an ERA under 3.  Still probably Gunnar. I have a soft spot for Bibee though.  Love his combination of stuff and command.

Clowns occasionally say true things. That said, I think Cano and Grayson's chances at ROY are basically zero.

Grayson would have to be nails from here to the end of the year.   He would have to be crazy good  and do something historic like maybe a no hitter.

For sure. And even then, the overall line would still be a bit tainted by the poor start and time in the minors. It would take a small miracle.

      Os claim Nick Avila

      By OnlyOneOriole · Posted

      This is a secondary or more accurately a thirdly or even a fourthly move.  Something he does all of the time.  It means next to nothing.  Elias loves to do this kind of thing.  And overall......it doesn't matter!   He may hit 1 out of 11 or even 2 out of 20 of these things....which is fine!  It is all reward and no risk.  So whatever.    At the very least it provides depth in the minor leagues.  Will it make or break the Os?  Hell no. If you can't tell the difference between me talking about Elias's fascination with other teams high velocity/high spin castoffs who can't stay on the major league club, and real actual major league moves?  Then you haven't been paying attention. I could give you 5 examples just in the past year.  Just another example of people like you COMPLETELY lying about a post I make.  And don't worry......you aren't alone.  Lots of people do it on here.  Again.....it doesn't matter.  This move.  Doesn't matter.   But if you want to call me a troll for you thinking I THINK that these types of moves somehow invalidate what Elias has done here overall for the past 5 years?   Then you be you.    But it isn't true.

      Dylan Cease at SD

      At what cost? You weren't getting Cease for DL Hall and Ortiz or it would have happened. Would you have been fine trading away Westburg or Cowser+ for him? At least he's having an up year from 2023. 2023 2024

      For me, it’s not about Moore’s tournament performance as much as his apparent ability to square the ball up and use the entire field. Legit power and hit tool.

      Right, which is why the Tigers kicked in 18M.

      Norby was cleaner at 2B, but Moore has better athleticism. Moore would need a lot of work to stay on the dirt. I would think they want to move him quickly, whichever team takes him.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      3. There was a lot of second guessing of the Verlander trade at the time.  Verlander was seen by many as a pitcher who's best days where behind him.
