I'd by lying if the Cease trade talk didn't seem pertinent again! LOL

Still not giving up one of the top 3 though.

Cease isn't a luxury anymore.  We might need him to be a 1-1 replacement for Bradish the next two seasons.  

Is the Gunnar ROY pick able to be traded?

And we’re back!

Cease still not happening.

Damn, it's like the off season started all over again. Opening spring training day gut punches. We NEED pitching. So I guess I can't cease thinking about Cease (as much as I'd like to.)

The trade pool for Cease consists of guys that don’t have a path to everyday ABs or SP IP this year. Cowser, Kjerstad, Norby, Povich, and McDermott. Possibly the #32 pick. There’s enough to get a deal done in there.

The question is, are you giving up 4 players from that pool? Seems like that's the only deal Chicago accepts, and they probably would rather have Mayo in there, too.

Based off of what was said post Burnes trade, it sounds like the Os offered the Burnes package “plus another player”

That report makes me think it wasn’t a Kjerstad or Cowser type guy but maybe more Dylan Beavers.  I also don’t think the report mentioned the pick but let’s assume it was in there.

With the pick no longer there, the Os likely have to trade a player that has similar value to that pick.

So, I think you replace Beavers (if he was the guy) with Cowser or Kjerstad. Replace Hall with Povich. Replace Ortiz with Norby.

For the 4th player I would either put one of our Intl lottery tickets up (although I will say that not offering any of them up..some I’m keeping) or if they wanted a MLer or a prospect that could be ready within 2 years, I could see offering him guys like Wagner or some of the guys drafted in the first 4 or so rounds the last 2 drafts.  Just that group of guys.  Fabian as a 4th player may not be bad for them.

I just find it hard to believe they turn down that offer and go into the season risking him.

I personally care about Orioles baseball from 2025-2030 enough to not offer excess value for Dylan Cease in a desperation move. Not to say a move isn't there to be made, but just like before, they need to be considerate of short term and long term priorities.

The O’s would have already traded for Cease if they were going to do it. They didn’t because Getz was unreasonable in his asking price and that certainly isn’t going to change in light of this morning’s news. We can’t give in to panic trades. Go sign a starter.

Has Chris Getz completed his Morning of Day 1 comments?

It was the best post of the thread. Absolute perfection.

Chris Getz was already asking for the sun, the moon, and the stars before he had any real leverage over the Orioles. Now that the Bradish injury has given him some leverage, should Mike Elias give up the sun, the moon, the stars, and the asteroid belt for Cease?

Of course not. Moving on.
