fathom

Yep, just risking he gets seriously injured now.

I’ve said this a few times, but can you imagine how low the payroll will go next offseason?

I don’t see how they escape the massive hole they’re in. They won’t have money to spend, don’t have enough quality trade chips and they don’t develop players well enough.

Wait until they trade Cease, it will be Robert and last year’s A’s team

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a team dumpster dive this much. Just sell the team Jerry

He was absolutely awful last year. Wtf are they thinking

Also concerns about his ability to hit LHP

No one ever thinks their team’s best players might regress and/or that their prospects won’t pan out. It happened to us from 19-21, and I see a lot of similarities with what the Orioles fans are saying. I like the Orioles team and hope they perform well, but the AL East is only going to keep getting better.

Just that the Astros love Cease

Going from Bautista to Kimbrel is a giant downgrade. Don’t forget, us Sox fans HATE Kimbrel.

Astros are obsessed with Cease. Maybe a 3-team deal with Framber to Orioles, Cease to Astros and Sox getting prospects

Next offseason, he will be the guy on the block

They won’t spend significantly at SP or RF in my opinion. What we’re seeing is a gigantic payroll slash, which has gotten very little publicity.

They’re signing as many roster fillers as they can while slashing the budget an insane amount.

All this for the 10th pick in the draft. What a shitshow

They keep acquiring cheap guys with no upside at all and no potential trade value.

Another terrible player acquired. He was awful last year.

He’s an idiot

Some of us said it wouldn’t improve until quite a few of the guys are gone (cough Timmy and Grandal).

Yes, if they’re not pitching prospects

The Twitter account that broke both of the Jays signings said they’re not getting Bellinger or Chapman.

Cowser’s stock is falling from what I’ve heard

For Robert you wouldn’t trade those guys? Woof

At this point, I would be shocked if the Orioles land Cease. Braves, Yankees, Cardinals, Cubs, Dodgers and Red Sox might be more realistic.

I watched a lot of videos of AJSS when he was in the majors last year, and I can’t believe how many hangers he threw with his breaking ball. His change up seemed effective.
