Age discrimination

Dan McNeil reporting Harbaugh to Chargers

So many of the Orioles prospects “in play” are 24-25 years old. I’d much rather the Sox go for high ceiling guys like Arias (NYY) than these older prospects. I understand the injuries and COVID year restrictions as well (since I’m sure the hangout will argue that).

Jones top 40, Hampton top 60.

Rosenthal even said someone from the Orioles told him that if they don’t get Cease now, they probably won’t win a bidding war at the deadline for him.

Nah, they’re busy saying how delusional we all are on their site

Where is Ortiz?

It’s the worst thread I can remember. The ironic thing is I’ve never seen a thread where more Sox fans have teamed together.

Bautista had none

What does Men In Black have to do with this?

While debating if wins means a starting pitcher is better than another

You’re going to love seeing Kimbrel in the 8th inning then

A guy who can’t throw strikes, can’t hold runners and shows no consistency in his stuff….he’s all yours

When you look at what Tampa got for Glasnow, while also unloading Margot’s salary, a lot of these proposed packages are underwhelming. Just move on from the Orioles at this point.

Duquette is same person who proposed Cease for Dominguez, Hampton, Warren and one more. If he says it’s a good package offered, that’s interesting.

No one knows if the price is sky high. If they’re asking for Jones or Hampton, that tells me they’re not being unrealistic.

That doesn’t even include losing Bautista for the season. That’s their biggest loss by far.

He’s not a base stealer at all. He would be a very disappointing headliner. He can be a solid Major Leaguer, but you can also get someone like that via free agency for fairly cheap.

My god, I hate this thread. I’ve grown to wish every Orioles prospect flops.

It’s very possible Elias isn’t willing to deal any of their top 5 guys. Cowser and Kjerstad might mean even more to them than we would think due to their outfield FA situation the next few years.

Bob also said Mets aren’t interested in Cease

No, I said Busch and someone like Sheehan or Stone and another prospect instead of settling for a lesser package from the Orioles, if they refuse to give up their guys.

I’ve said all along I want the best players, regardless of position or righty/lefty. They have so many holes, I don’t think anyone is actually blocked (since we don’t know where Montgomery will play).

It would frustrate me that Getz couldn’t make a deal with the Dodgers for Busch, a pitcher and another prospect.

NBB said he’s not coming back no matter what
