Marvelous Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Wow. It has been over year since the last post. The Orioles finally have something to be excited about. They have called up three of their rookies. Montcastle is hitting over his first 15 games. His bat looks legit. Of course, that is a really small sample size. Keegan Akin has made two start and has looked good. Dean Kremer started Sunday and looked good. Akin and Kremer are not even the top of the line prospects. If they can stick in the rotation for a while, things will look a bit better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simsarge Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Some nice advancements this year. How much longer do they need to suffer through the Chris Davis contact? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shortened season this year provided some salary relief for the Orioles. So if next year is shortened, they could get some extra salary relief.

For whatever reason I thought it ended next year and had to look it up. TWO more years, and if it plays out as whole years played, $43M . I don't see a scenario where he says "Nah, I've got enough millions, just call me on Chris Davis bobblehead day when you're going to retire my number" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvelous Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I read that there is a possibility of a work stoppage next year due to labor negotiations. If that happens, it could provide salary relief for the Orioles. That means Chris Davis will be with the Orioles until they definitely know there will not be a work stoppage. Davis has been put on the 60 day IL, which makes managing the roster a little easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvelous Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 (edited) One Oriole pitcher is doing really well. John Means just pitched a no hitter. And he is one batter, who reached on a dropped 3rd strike, from a perfect game. John Means has been one of the best pitchers in baseball so far this year.

Marvelous Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Chris Davis had season ending surgery. So he will not play this year. Then there is one year left of possibly the worst contract ever in baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
