  1. With the prices remaining sky-high in the trade market for starters, the Orioles might consider looking more closely at free-agent starters.

    Corbin Burnes is almost surely staying in Milwaukee now, and Shane Bieber seems likely to stay in Cleveland, as well. The O’s talked a lot about Dylan Cease but still don’t seem close.

    The price for Cease is said by one GM (not Baltimore’s) to be “the sun and the moon.” Considering the dollar costs of free-agent starters, that may be about right.

  2. This is what I imagine the phone calls are between Getz and elias.

    Getz:  Kjerstad

    Elias: phone hangs up

    Elias: Ortiz

    Getz: phone hangs up

    Getz: cowser

    Elias: phone hangs up

    Elias: Kjerstad 

    Getz:  yes

    Elias: you didn't let me finish. Kjerstad home run ball and ortiz

    Getz: phone hangs up

    I would say Cease doesn’t get moved at this point,” an NL executive said. “The White Sox are not budging on price, and teams don’t seem to have interest in paying that price.”

    “I think [the Guardians] keep Bieber,” an AL executive said.

    While Cease and Bieber have seemingly been on the trade block for the whole winter, a source said the Marlins have been open to discussing deals involving Jesús Luzardo and Edward Cabrera. Beyond those four, a source indicated that “few starting pitchers are being dangled” by clubs, contributing to the high asking prices.
