Fuckwit leadership puts me in the outfield because of their own failures, now I'm injured for half a season and likely compromised into my platform season heading into arbitration.
They did this guy so damn dirty.
One thing worth noting in re: Winn - if a player wins ROY, you get a nice pick immediately after the 1st round. If you call up Winn now, he'll burn his rookie eligibility prior to next season.
If you call him up in about 3 weeks, his rookie eligibility will still be intact and he can be eligible for that nice little pick prize for you.
I couldn’t remember that timeline. Then we get Edman at SS with a fill in to give him relief then you bring up Winn on the first possible day. [Reply]
Today the #Orioles reportedly acquired RHP Jack Flaherty ($3.6M median trade value) from the #STLCards in exchange for IF César Prieto ($2.4M) and LHP Drew Rom ($2.2M).
Deal is accepted by our model.

Thanks, stupid question. How do I post like that? [Reply]
TORONTO — The Orioles hoped to use the trade deadline to upgrade their starting rotation. As the time ticked away for them to do so, they made their move.
Minutes before Tuesday’s MLB trade deadline, Baltimore reportedly acquired right-hander Jack Flaherty, a pending free agent, from the St. Louis Cardinals for Triple-A Norfolk infielder César Prieto and left-hander Drew Rom and Low-A Delmarva right-hander Zack Showalter, the organization’s Nos. 13, 15 and 16 prospects according to Baseball America.

First I’m seeing of the third prospect (Showalter). It was a fine haul before. Like it even more now.
Disappointed we didn’t trade any OF. It’s going to be an off-season to remember on how to sort this all out and get three starting pitchers (probably two and one internal rookie), more relievers, and clarity in OF and IF. [Reply]
Going on record again that I don’t approve of Cardinals FO’s philosophy for the past 3 seasons, but it’s really hard to not think they did a decent job at the deadline. They moved everyone worth a shit that was up for FA or not worth keeping around and got guys in return who could make an impact in 1-2 years or be used as trade bait in the off-season. [Reply]
