I'll be honest, I'm going to be disappointed if we leave Miami without Scott. The Marlins owe us anyway for giving us crap for him in the first place. lol

Scott would upgrade our 8th inning situation. 

For Brian Cashman, an interesting question is would he bid Jasson Rodriguez?

Spencer Jones has not covered himself in trade value in the first half of the minor league season.   He is basically having the Vance Honeycutt bad scenario.

The Yankees probably need to maximize their one Juan Soto year more than the Orioles need to maximize their one Corbin Burnes year as Gunnar/Adley about 10 years younger than Judge/Cole.

Corbin Burnes I am pretty sure has zero cares what the Orioles farm system rankings look like this winter.

What makes this "the Yankees on Juan Soto year"? They are more than likely going to resign him. Have you paid attention to how much money that they have coming off of their books? It makes little business sense for them to give up Jones and Dominguez. They are going to need another starting outfielder for cheap given how much they will be paying Judge and Soto in 25'.

They Yankees last almost 30 years have proven to us, that they are not ever limited to any kind of window. When/if they lose Cole, they will just go and sign the next superstar pitcher.

What about how the Guggenheim Partners are synergizing the Los Angeles and Tokyo media markets?

Did you see the Dodgers are having opening day in Asia again in 2025?    Jason Heyward as a starting OF on a 1-year contract?

Hal Steinbrenner is not his dad...so far.     The Yankees are in the mix but I believe it is more likely than not Juan Soto changes teams next year.

It is funny that we are playing Miami right now. Gotta think Elias is going to be on hand and doing some face to face discussions.

The Yankees could outbid anyone if they want…but the Dodgers and moreso the Mets are also able to go nuts. If you listen to people in and around the Yankees and those in the industry, it seems more likely he’s done than he stays.

Even if they lose Soto. The Yankees will still buy more superstars in the future. Their "window" will not be limited to a certain players career. 

I see the Mets being more of a competitor than the Dodgers for Soto.

Maybe they'll take Yacqui Rivera and Kevin Guerrero back for him? :D Rivera is starting to throw harder.

But there is no one else like Juan Soto at the top of the global talent pyramid the Orioles are fortunate to get to play in right now.

Not even Corbin Burnes, who I would today guess has similar odds to Juan Soto being a 2025 Opening Day New York Yankee.

Steve Philips was just on High Heat. Asked about Orioles. Doesn’t sound convinced Skubal is dealt. Did mention possibility of if Texas falls out of it - Heaney and Eovaldi.  

Respectfully Steve Phillips is as good of an insider as he was a GM.

I’m ready myself for deadline to be over. Tired of it. I enjoy being in the mix to improve.  
 

May sound funny but I like the deadline more when the Orioles are bad than good. Hope don’t have to deal with that for awhile.

Wow  how could you say that?  I am anxious and in suspense that the O-s will add the pieces that will give them postseason success.

    • It takes Orioles rookies 60 or 70 at bats to get their first two hits.
    • Tell me how can Harbaugh help him when he doesn't know how to help himself. Harbs is the worst at burning timeouts stupidly then not having any when they are needed at crunch time. 
    • Yes the same here. They are going to the playoffs and yet I have no feeling towards it whatsoever. Weird feeling. Like you just know they are going to get bounced in the first round. It looks inevitable. I mean you could make a case the Tigers are more deserving of the Orioles spot. They are playing some great baseball of late. 
    • Man Baltimore sports has not been kind. The Orioles are on a  3 month tailspin and the Ravens did what they do best and blew another double digit 4th quarter lead to a inferior team.  Let's see if the Orioles can right the ship,  though I'm not holding my breath on that one at all. Yikes. 
    • Idk how impactful this was, probably pretty low on the list of problems, but this is the 2nd straight week that Lamar threw the ball late in the game and the receiver was unable to get oob.  The ball to Bateman is probably excusable because we had more time on the clock and we needed the deep ball to be in position to make a run, but this time throwing a 12 yard dump to Andrews was just straight up stupid IMO.  I get that they're going to play outside leverage all day every day in this situation but just throw it away and try to take another shot.  Lamar has to have more clock awareness than that,  and Harbaugh has to instill in him the importance of saving those seconds on the clock.
    • Sorry but that response from Fuller sounds to me like too many words, concepts, abstractions, and if that's how he communicates, wordy and convoluted, it's a lot for hitters to carry "into the box." Not to mention all the specifics involved, re. what pitches and locations to look for, all the analytics of how to do the swing and torque the body, etc. I'm no coach but I can imagine a whole season of this approach just becomes information overload. Maybe it's not rocket science, after all (with all due respect to ex-NASA Sig). Maybe the antidote is more Zen: just see the pitch and hit the dang thing.  BTW I think the analytical, overthinking approach is better suited to the pitching side, where you can plan your attack based on all the data. Hitting is more reaction, no time to think. You can't beat pitching using the same approach--rather, need the opposite approach, to counter with instinct and intuition. At least, that's my cheap (2 cents) advice!
    • The proposition that every auction automatically results in an overpay is simplified indeed.  Granted, "kind of true" is a low bar to clear, but still...
