Minor league deal. Gotta think he’s a favorite for a pen spot. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/01/white-sox-sign-joe-barlow-to-minor-league-deal.html

I think we saw this name a few weeks ago.

Before the season? Or do you think one pulls the trigger in the summer?

I loved that return for Lynn and Kelly.

Position players don’t go for as much as pitching at the deadline.

He can play Short stop but played 2B in majors because they had others playing SS.

I have a few of the winter hats. They’re great.

It wasn’t.

They can also send a lesser piece than Santos back our way too.

I don’t think they’re saying no to Kjerstad. I think Jimmy is right that the problem is the rest of the package.

It would be nice to at least hide him in LF if that’s the case but Benintendi…

The O’s fans that have posted here seemed ok too. It’s the rest of the package for them.

I don’t think he said that. Hes saying the deal would be “Benintendi for cash considerations.”

That deal is going to be ugly fast. I can confidently say that about him and Snell too.

Right. You can’t just hold onto everyone. Guys eventually need to be added to the 40-man and guys run out of options. Elias seems hellbent on trying though.

Have him get those innings in the minors. And when he gets hurt, he won’t have to burn service time on MLB IL.

Maybe to cover for a couple of years but should they be that concerned about not having a "real CF prospect" over the next couple of years? Cedric Mullins also has 2 years of control left.

Cowser isn’t a CF prospect? 253 career games in CF is significantly more than he’s played at the other 2 spots.

You O's fans are basically implying this. You guys don't want to trade anyone besides Ortiz in the top 10.

You seem to be implying that the top 10 (besides a glove first 25 year old) is off the table.

Yeah and holding onto every OF.

Also, I would be ok with that package.

Yeah he makes sense for the Cubs situation but we need better all around players.

Realistically, how many innings can even throw this year? Might just need to be a couple inning opener and 1 inning relief type role. That is, until he gets hurt and ends up on the IL…again.
