I believe I own some Carlyle stock. I guess that will make me part owner of a sports franchise. Time to update my LinkedIn profile.

What makes me question this is the line about Angelos.  I don't think he's making those decisions.

So take it with a grain of salt, but a guy who has repeatedly proven to be accurate with his insider information regarding the Mets is apparently claiming that a deal has been made but wont be announc

Peter Angelos doesn’t have the capacity to make any decisions.  This isn’t speculation but fact.  

I wasn't clear, and I apologize for that. As among the owners, Peter Angelos has always had, and still has, control over the decision to sell. He has given his wife the power to make that decision for him.  It's still his decision, as majority owner, but the publicly available information tells us that someone else will make that decision for him.

Pure conjecture - I am not sure where it says PA made this decision but there are always moments when he could say that...  heck, maybe he wasn't involved and JA used it as negotiating.  

As far as Baltimore, maybe there is a thought that the Angelos's can get a better deal because they have a political advantage.. just a thought but I could see it coming in a package.

      An early look at the 2025 Bullpen

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      I wouldn’t call that a “real strength”. Trade Perez and get a better arm to replace him.

      But that RH bat played a position that we had locked down because of the presence of Urias and Westburg. He wasn’t going to come up and play. If you wanted him to be the RH DH, that’s fine but the Os also lost Mounty and Mayo didn’t come up and play well. They decided that having those 4 players was enough depth to use Norby to get pitching. I don’t see that as being wrong at all…no one to predict what would happen after. They had that “position” locked down. Jimenez was just a lottery ticket and really he played a lot more than they probably thought because of all the injuries that occurred.

      The 2025 bullpen looks like a real strength. R - Bautista, Cano, Dominguez, Webb L - Coloumbe, Soto, Perez, Akin I like having the 4 lefties with the WALL and that should be enough for the regular season.  It allows us to really matchup and take advantage of our ballpark. That’s a pen with 4 former All Stars. I believe Akin will still have an option since he made it through the season without burning his last one.  He’d be the guy to go down to AAA for a longman/fresh arm when needed. Maybe we get our lightning in a bottle reliever throwing near 100 in McDermott or Morfe later in the year. I don’t think we see much turnover here.  However, I could see Elias electing not to bring back Soto for flexibility reasons, more so than salary reasons.  Could we actually “sell” Soto for something of value?

      Co-hitting coach Ryan Fuller, Fredi Gonzalez and Jose Hernandez let go

      By eddie83 · Posted

      https://www.masnsports.com/blog/reviewing-orioles-recent-coaching-history-and-thoughts-on-what-s-next From Roch.    An immediate reaction to the current openings is that Triple-A Norfolk manager Buck Britton could be a candidate to fill one of them. They also could seek a bilingual coach now that González and Hernández are gone. Britton’s contract expires at the end of the month and he’s close with the young hitters who passed through Norfolk. He’s also gained the respect of other teams in the majors and could move on, which would leave the Orioles with another task.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      If we don’t resign Burnes then what are we doing as a franchise?  It’s hard to see any difference between Rubenstei and what we had before. A case can be made for not bringing back Santander.  Heck, even Soto, but with our SP injuries, and the way we’ve spent our draft capital, the plan looked to be to always land that big time SP from outside the org.  Well that happened.  Gotta keep him now.

      He called it a solid trade at the time it was made and he’ll die before he admits he was wrong about something.

      There was a need for a RH bat. We used a major league ready RH bat (who was also serviceable in the field) in the trade for Rogers. We added a bad RH bat, who was not able to play defense at all.  Neither Eloy or Rogers were able to keep their spot on the roster, and we had two guys go down that would have opened spots for Norby. So yes, it does have something to do with the Rogers trade.
