Angels trade OF Taylor Ward to BAL for RHP Grayson Rodriguez

This looks like a garbage trade but my guess is that the Orioles are just sick of Rodriguez’s injuries and probably think he can’t hold up at all.

Our old friends at Orioles Hangout think it’s a horrible trade as well and are calling it the worst move of Elias’s tenure.

I have a simple rule of thumb here: If it looks like the Angels did something smart, they didn’t. I bet Rodriguez gets TJS a month into the season.

Wouldn’t be surprised.  This guy is softer than baby s%*# and very injury-prone.  The starting pitcher equivalent of Eloy, Moncada, and Robert rolled into one.

I'd absolutely still call that highway robbery even if Rodriguez is out 2026. This is wildly stupid by the O's.

Most of Soxtalk honestly.

What's with the search function? I was looking for a post of mine where I stated that Orioles' fans should understand, as we do too well, that windows slam shut pretty quickly. But when I advance from page 2 to page 3, I'm told to try that in 4 seconds, or something. You don't really have to answer, just that searching gets klugey.

search function has always been a PITA. there is a 60 second cooldown function built in to prevent bots/spamming

It's always been garbage because of the size of hte database.

Another wild thing about this is that the O's have had a surplus/logjam of OF prospects for the past several years (i.e. a position of supposed strength), and now they find themselves needing to trade for one year of a 32 year old OF.

Lol and/or lmao.

Stowers in Miami could end up with the best numbers...almost nobody (especially scouts) expected that to occur.
