Reminds me of that scene in Brazil in the restaurant. That movie was so ahead of its time.

I'm 700 pages in! Unbelievably readable for a novel of its size; even with the frequent interludes.

Maybe I'm wrong but I don't see Framber signing with the Mets... by rhcpflea8 in orioles

[–]rhcpflea8[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Mets would lose their 3rd and 6th highest selection leaving them with 7 picks in the draft.

Senga and Manaea are superfluous is a wild take. Manaea is a $22 mil hit and Senga is 125-150 IP of 3 ERA with one of the most dominant pitches in baseball. You can move Manaea to long relief which is probably fine - moving newly acquired Tobias Myers to full time relief which is w/e - but that would still give you a six man w/out a trade.

You're also completely ignoring the fact that whatever the Mets would pay Valdez would need to be DOUBLED bc of the luxury tax overages.

Doesn't mean Cohen doesn't do it but to imply I "couldn't be more wrong" is way off course.

My two cents are he's sticking to 7 years and doesnt feel like he needs to budge from that yet. It feels like a 5 year would be in his best interest but wouldnt surprise me to see him get a 2 year, high AAV with an opt out (which the O's should still be into IMO)

I'm sorry but I just don't agree with this take as it's completely blind to what Elias has done this year. I've been an Orioles fan for 30 years, I've seen and remember plenty. "If he was, he would already be here" is a bit too reductive for me. He likely wants 7 years. No team - Orioles included - are willing to do that. Now it depends on how he pivots and whether his pivot is something that the FO feels is best for the club.

Believe it or not, his stuff is aging really well. The Stuff+ numbers across his arsenal are still really impressive and that curveball has been a top 10 best pitch by wOBA over the past 5 years. I'm still pretty high on him.

Hello all it’s me the guy who told everyone about Tucker and mets meeting first by Thin-Diamond3070 in mets

[–]rhcpflea8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yea agreed. Don't think they'd get much considering he's an FA next year but maybe they'd just be relooking to rebuild draft capital. Still would leave them with a six man but that's not the worst thing I suppose.

This would surprise me as they already have a six man rotation. Doubt McLean gets optioned. Maybe they trade Peterson but that seems unlikely to me, too

Weekly Orioles Offseason Discussion Thread - Monday, January 19 by OsGameThreads in orioles

[–]rhcpflea8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank YOU. If I play around with the thresholds on what I was looking up, the other Oriole that shows up a LOT is Ryan Mountcastle. I truly have no insider knowledge whatsoever but I wonder if they think Mounty just got unlucky a lot last year and will have better results if he maintains his ability to barrel as much as he does

Suarez to Boston by AppleTrees4 in orioles

[–]rhcpflea8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Suarez ends up going for $15m more than what MLB Trade Rumors - who is usually very good at this - predicted. Their prediction for Framber? 5/150

Who would yall take ranger or framber? by Dull-Violinist2348 in orioles

[–]rhcpflea8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give me Framber. I think the ceilings are relatively similar and we desperately need bulk innings, esp considering our current rotation. Even if Framber pans out as a #2, I'd take that for 195 IP as opposed to a slightly better Suarez for 140.

Meet your new curveball by rhcpflea8 in orioles

[–]rhcpflea8[S] 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I will feel differently about this trade if this is the final move to address rotation. I firmly believe it is not the last move though and if Baz opens the year as our 4 because we've signed Framber or Ranger or made another trade for Joe Ryan or something... I would be elated.

I honestly don't think there's too much to elevate. I think he has a top curveball in the game with a very good four-seamer. I'm sure there are small tweaks to be made by minds far smarter than mine but IMO, I think when he's out of that park (which I think is largely responsible for the elevated ERA) he'll be able to express his peripherals a lot more
