No. Our best SP prospect who we will need in the rotation next year with Burnes and Means gone.

I doubt DeLeon is in the rotation next year.

Povich may not be the best pitching prospect on his own team. He’s just off to a better start than McDermott.

It’s still not cool to downvote a guy just because you don’t like his opinion.  All he was doing here was asking a question.

It’s some Splenda to sweeten the deal.

Yeah, the fact someone is willing to throw in Baumann on a deal that's already an overpay tells you that even he doesn't think Baumann has any real value.

Two for the price of one!

I was going to joke Scott's ERA isn't high enough like Shintaro Fujinami's but learned just now despite bad peripherals he has a good ERA.

Seems he's lost whatever command he found last year for a minute, but I think the GM's just watching pitch metrics don't care about ERA noise in 10-inning samples.

Stuff+ considers his fastball one of the game's elite pitches, and he's left handed.   It is just that simple, and for Peter Bendix who gives him the best deal.

All the Dylan Cease observations about Chris Getz taking on risk holding him even a few more appearances pertain here too.

I saw some video last night Arraez was warming up pregame when the news broke, so there was a round of hugs on camera in early May.

Would you guys be willing to get Chisholm if they want to deal him? Seems like a ton of potential and maybe if he gets out of Miami, it will click for him?

For what position?  Bats aren’t something we are lacking or need.

Of course, I was one of the few posters who had big reservations about trading Eduardo Rodriguez (who was having a mildly down year in AA) for Andrew Miller (who was having a great year for Boston).   So of course I’m not going to like trading Povich (who is tearing up AAA) for Scott (who has upside but is having a down year for Miami).   Generally, I’m not a fan of trading 6 years of a potentially good starting pitcher for one partial year of a reliever.   I’m not saying I’d never do it, but it would take a lot of convincing, especially since our org isn’t chock full of good starting pitcher prospects.

No to the trade idea.

And wow, this may be the first Hangout Unification thread I’ve seen in a while.

Early results where 98+ percent of us AGREE on something!

Hrmm, maybe I could start a Gunnar Henderson for Kevin Kiermaier thread and see what kind of results I get! 😂

There's a big difference between having an ERA below 2 in low A vs AAA.  Let's cool the jets on De Leon until he proves something at a higher level.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By OriolesMagic83 · Posted

      Yeah, that's what I was afraid of.  I'm sure Elias will kick the tires.  WS will be asking for package headed by one of Holliday, Mayo or Basallo.  Maybe price will come down in the offseason.

      Suarez is probably going to have to go back to the pen. We just don’t have enough arms there to make it through the season, especially with having very few relievers who can pitch more than 1 inning. Even though Suarez has been the much better pitcher than Kremer, he gives you no length. He is the basic definition of a “5 and dive” pitcher.  I guess they could try Kremer as a back end reliever given his strike out stuff and penchant for not being able to go through a lineup a third time. However, the downside to that is his susceptibility to the long ball.

      This is Crochet's first full year back from TJS after 12 IP last year. You'd have to think if you are trading for him, it's not for this year, but next year as he's likely only got a few more starts left him if he's handled responsibly, which he should be, coming back from TJS. He's under control through the 2026 season and there is value in that even though he's arb eligible and will likely get a nice bump in salary.

      Luzardo screams "flames out in a few years" to me. No thanks, or at least for what he'll cost. Robert has played literally one full season of baseball in his entire life. Again, too much risk and no thanks. Crochet would be a good target, because we get him for 2 1/2 years and is an elite lefty. Given where CHW are, a package with Kjerstad and one of our young pitchers (headlining) makes sense for both teams.  If we are forced to effectively give up on Mullins or Hays (either BC of injury or general suckiness), Taylor Ward does make sense. His name has been tossed around a lot. His splits playing against AL East teams kinda scare me, but he's a RH bat that can play good defensive OF and under team control for a few years and probably won't cost much. As for bullpen arms, this seems like the hardest to predict. CHW doesn't really have anybody pitching well there. The Marlins have our old friend Tanner Scott, but he isn't anything near a sure thing like other experienced closers. Mason Miller will cost too much. Chapman may make sense if DC is out. As a 36 year old rental he won't cost as much, which will be important if we go all in for a starter. His wildness will make our blood boil but he still has the swing and miss stuff and obviously a ton of playoff experience. Maybe Beeks from COL? Another lefty bullpen rental.

      I was against the idea of a Crochet addition before the Bradish injury because I didn’t see the need. Now, I’m all for it. He would be a gamble but a much better buy than Luzardo who is not pitching well at all this season. He (Luzardo) would be the kind of non-impact move that we tried last year, that blew up in our faces.  On the other hand Robert is more of a luxury move than a need. IMO the needs are now top end starting pitcher (#2/3 type) AND shut down reliever. Anything addition beyond that is gravy. The priorities are pitching.

      I think a RH bat is all we need offensively. I’d look at JD Martinez.

      How do other teams have ANY leverage? It’s not like Elias is forced to deal with them. If he was only dealing with one yea they would have leverage because the Orioles have a need on the roster. But because there are MULTIPLE with MULTIPLE players he can move on from any team and they will get nothing from us. Those other teams are incentivized to move their players JUST AS MUCH as we are incentivized to add. NOBODY is getting Westburg (or even asking for him at this point) or ANY OTHER MAINSTAY Major Leaguer of the roster. That’s not how the trade deadline works. As I mentioned nobody is going to the Yankees and saying give us Gil, Soto, Judge, Rodon, etc. Nobody is asking the Dodgers for Betts, Freeman, Ohtani, etc. Teams who are rebuilding/selling are asking for prospects. Oakland and the Chicago White Sox are not one player or even one year away. Guys who are already established now (even young ones like Jordan Westburg) do nothing for them in their phase of rebuilding.
