I gotta say - I love these reports from the farm with video highlights.   They make following the farm clubs much easier and more enjoyable.  Combined with the discussion in the message board, I get my fix from you all.

      Kyle Stowers 2024

      I doubt they give him a 2-3 year deal, I do think if he's here it's because they give a QO and he takes it, which I also doubt he'd do, because someone is going to pay him more for longer.

      I don’t think you should be influenced by a hot streak. Santander is going to have those..he’s also going to be ice cold at times. I have no desire to pay him 22ishM next year.  That’s where “paying for WAR” goes overboard for me. Just because he may “be worth it” doesn’t mean it’s money well spent. With that said, I believe AS will be here next year. I don’t agree with it but I think they sign him to a 2-3 year deal.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      I don't think that I can speak with any certainty about what this team will do. This is the first meaningful stop of meaningful spending that the Rubenstien train has come to. I guess it seems prudent to me to wait, observe, and assess after the dealine to see how it goes. If there is any truth to the rumors that the O's are considering making Basallo available, that means that they are more big game hunting than you suggest. Just because we may not have the #1, 2, 3 payroll in the sport like the Yankees/Dodgers/Mets, there is still A LONG WAY TO GO between where we are now and even an average MLB payroll, let alone top 10ish. I agree that the bullpen is a real need. But I do not agree that we are fine with starting Cole Irvin round after round in the playoffs and in a 7 game series possibly two starts in a series. I guess if your goal is to successfully complete ONE round it could work. But I don't believe it is a good idea or reasonable plan for success to believe Cole Irvin will be successful multiple times against some of the best offenses in the league like NYY, Philly/LAD. I have stated this on numerous occasions, but I believe that the Orioles are good enough to win a World Series this season, if they make 1-3 additions. Pitching happens to be the hole that needs to be filled this year AND we have the prospect capital to do it AND we have an owner with means (this time) and hopefully the will necessary to support winning (I question if Angelos ever had that) AND the front office who is bold and believes enough to land us 1/2 impact players when it is time. Lastly, Mayo may be the bat that you say. I hope that is true. But I am very skeptical about kids coming from AAA to excel immediately in the Majors. That just doesn't happen very much at all anymore. Almost all struggle to acclimate initially.

      “it requires spending money intelligently” That it is how the quote should read.

      Pick your 40 man roster (protect list) for Nov 20th.

      By Aristotelian · Posted

      Yeah, we kind of need to revisit this after the trade deadline when we will have a better idea of which assets we have left to protect. We may also have a better idea of openings on the 40 man.

      Heston Kjerstad 2024

      By Otter · Posted

      Good question.  Could be just a fluke or a slump, or it could be frustration or boredom.  He's human, he knows he's been major league ready for a while and he also knows there is no clear path to regular MLB at bats without some serious injuries to guys in front of him.  I'm thinking Elias has a decision to make by the trade deadline or offseason on whether to give Heston a legit shot at regular MLB at bats or trade him for pitching.

      He could be making minor changes just like Holliday. Minor leagues where you can iron things out. It made more sense after I saw Bryan Baker. He obviously was working on that new curveball and it inflated his ERA first month.
