It seems to me the flaws you point out are all fixable. If you treat 2022 as potential, instead of an outlier, Cease is rather valuable. Especially if you are correct about the money. At the risk of s

Just need to make sure he is Casey Kotchmann good.

I’d do the Mullins/Burnes trade if Cowser hadn’t been such a dud, especially in CF, during his call up. Way too much for Cease. Cabrera/Ortiz could be interesting, but that walk rate is scary bad. No interest in Blackburn, especially for Norby. 

Right, so everything is an overpay.

I don’t think Mullins/Burnes is an overpay. It’s just not right for us without any CF depth. 
 

I don’t really know enough about Cabrera to say there. The walk rate is concerning, but you can question if Ortiz will hit enough to be an every day player.

Yes, I oversimplified things.

It's just I get frustrated with the hording mentality I see here.  There just always seems to be a reason to turn down any possible deal that contains an O's prospect that might possibly turn into something at some point.

 

Wasn't targeting you in particularity with the comment.

 

For the record going by what I've seen I don't want Cowser in Centerfield for 150 games either.

Dylan Cease for Jordan Westburg, Heston Kjerstad (MLB No. 24) and Dylan Beavers (BAL No. 9). For 2 years of Cease? That seems like a substantial overpay. Maybe take out Kjerstad and replace him with Fabian?

I’m not making that trade because Cease has only had one truly outstanding season. That’s a lot to give up for Cease if he posts his 2023 numbers again. I’m not opposed to getting Cease, but Elias better be confident if he’s willing to part with that package.

Dylan Cease comes with two years of team control and the White Sox are going to need time and prospects to rebuild. Package infielder Jordan Westburg with outfielders Heston Kjerstad and Dylan Beavers.

That feels like too much for just Dylan Cease, but I could live with something like this: Westburg, Kjerstad, Beavers, and Mullins / Hays for Cease and Luis Robert Jr. Getting Robert Jr. as part of the deal means we're not putting all our eggs in that one Cease basket.

Even if it is in a role like Jordan Lawlar on the Diamondbacks now, I have a feeling Bradfield will be part of the playoff roster next fall if we're in it and he is still in the organization.

I think if the manager follows the GM to New York, and MIL re-tools for the Jackson Chourio teams, they will lean towards colleagues for Chourio rather than MLB players almost as productive as Burnes.

      Is Matt Wieters >Adley?

      Adley is having a down year. I believe he will bounce back.

      Can the O's hit Lugo and Wacha?

      By Fiver6565 · Posted

      I admire those of you who have such confidence in this offense. It’s been absolutely terrible for months, other than the last week of the season. It was beyond terrible yesterday- yes Ragans was good but the approach was awful by every hitter. I’ll be thrilled for them to prove me overly pessimistic, but I have zero faith in these bats.  This is at least partially a defense mechanism. I am not ready for the baseball season to be over, and another terribly quick exit from the postseason would just be so dreadful. I don’t need them to win the WS. But winning one GD game would be nice. Not looking forward to six months without baseball.

      Brandon Hyde 2024

      By waroriole · Posted

      You don’t have to twist yourself into a pretzel to defend Hyde. If Santander’s defense costs us, it means we got to extra innings and pinch running for OHearn was the right call. Also, are you really trying to say that OHearn is so valuable a defender at 1B that we couldn’t stand to lose that glove in extras? I doubt he’s even better than Santander.

      Is Matt Wieters >Adley?

      By JR Oriole · Posted

      Wieters' bWAR was 13.3 through his first 4 seasons (2009 - 2012).  It ended at 18.3 after his last season in 2020, so he was basically ineffective for the last 8 years of his career. Adley's bWAR is 13.1 through his first 3 seasons. So it isn't like Wieters didn't have a strong start to his career just like Adley did.  I think the concern that folks have is that the rest of Adley's career will play out like the rest of Wieters' career.  It seemed very unlikely halfway through this year, but this has been one hell of a drop-off.   And after Wieters never lived up to expectations, it is definitely a fear that we may be reliving this again.  Let's hope this second half was just an aberration.

      Adley has been in a horrible almost 4 month slump. Before that, he was the WAY BETTER offensive player. But I pose this question: What does it matter if Rutschman turns out to be worse than Wieters? Matt Wieters was drafted almost TWENTY YEARS AGO. No one in this org had anything to do with him being on our roster. HEck none of our current front office was even here for his entire Orioles' career.

      I do feel like Adley is out of shape or at least has gotten more out of shape than usual. That’s part of the reason I think he’s hurt…not working out as much. If he is healthy and the slump is this bad, I’m ok questioning whether or not the new GF(ie the distraction) is part of it. Is he putting everything into the game that he should?
