I know the trade is a tough one, but I don't really get these non-local media takes where they're like, "This makes no sense for the Orioles!! Unless, I guess, they're worried about his medicals...?"

Like, yeah man! That's the trade! It doesn't happen unless that's the case.

Yeah I hate players who play everyday , can get you 30+ homers, and bring in 100+ RBIs even while playing for terrible teams. Would much rather wish upon a star that THIS will be the year that G-Rod was gonna stay healthy. Fool me once, fool me twice, fool me three times…

From a pure production perspective, Steamer projects Ward a full win better than Bader, and basically matches Grisham’s projection, without worrying about further decline years. The ‘26 Orioles are better than they were yesterday.

He’s just a less ideal match as a meh defensive corner outfielder.

In a division with ace-level LHP, another more than solid RHB in a LH heavy lineup is not a bad thing.

If the Orioles are moving away from Gray Rod and picking up Taylor Ward, that feels like the first maneuver in a series of multiple dominoes to fall.

(Standard disclaimer that Mike is a douche) Elias doesn't do things like that without a plan.

Ripped the guy bc he’s always hurt, now it’s we just gave away the 2026 cy young winner 😂. Never change.

The “finance bro patches” are gonna help them bring in relief pitching. I do not give a fuck. In the long list of battles I want to fight, that’s one of the lowest.
Here I've been blaming T. Rowe Price for the Orioles' downturn in mid-2024, when it turns out that Austin Hays' weirdly hostile Bibleposting before Pride Night was the true culprit.

Just kidding; it's a "yes, and". 86 the finance bro jersey patches, and whatever you do, don't bring back Mr. Glass.
50-30 before, went 41-41 after.

Every time a ref calls a false start penalty on the Tush Push, an angel gets its wings.

“Holmes, whose hairdressing clients have included members of the Royal Family, Rihanna and Kate Moss, filed a shocking $20million counterclaim this year alleging the Palmers threatened to dismember and kill him.” 😳

Been done w/Palmer ever since his maga came out. Crazy to see ppl still support him
USA 🇺🇸

A leaked memo shows Orioles broadcaster Jim Palmer was disciplined in 2022 for “offensive” conduct affecting Black colleague Rob Long. He completed training and was warned to stay silent. The case resurfaced in court filings.

The club executive has never set such a high bar for the Orioles’ offseason plans.

Honestly the best scene among many great scenes in the movie.
amc is showing A FEW GOOD MEN (1992) and the hero of the movie is randy milligan, delivering a two-run double off rick aguilera to give the orioles a 5-4 win over the twins www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/BAL/BA...

Liked him a lot at Vandy. Really makes an impact. If he can keep that OBP high like it was at AA, he’s got a lot to look forward to.

Getting him the AAA & the AFL look was super helpful. Really directs his development perfectly.

Mike Elias laid out the 3 items high on his offseason wish list. He addressed the buzz surrounding the Orioles as potential major players in the free-agent market.

And perhaps most importantly, he expressed a willingness to spend.

“We’re trying to win.”
