TD_washingtonredskins Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Is anyone getting more concerned that we won't end up trading Machado, Jones, Britton, etc.? I have to be honest, if we still have our "core" on August 1, I'll probably not tune in again until the final week to see Manny a couple more times in an O's uniform. This front office is destroying much of the good will it created over the 2012-2016 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way it doesn't happen is if ownership blocks a trade like they did last year. Speaking of which, O's would be a lot better off if they had completed the trade last season based on reports of who would have been included.

TheDoyler23 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 So Britton has nothing and it was obvious 2 batters ago. Lets see how this plays out. Jeez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinFanInMinn Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 And it’s tied up with one out. I can’t believe after that top of the ninth they are imploding like this. Unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't want to see his son strike out in a big spot. Speaking of Buck, good grief how could he not take out Britton sooner. Clearly one batter sooner would have made the difference.

O's would have gotten 3B prospect Colin Moran as part of the package. In the off-season he was traded to the pirates and he is currently batting .272 with a .354 OBP. Be nice to have a rookie 3B doing that. Fortunately Britton has a month to get some value, but he looked terrible tonight. 30 minutes ago, TheDoyler23 said: Jones coming up with that ball would have helped...

SkinFanInMinn Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I was thinking about that while Zach was pitching. Just seeing his value go down and down. Quite a scare the other night when Mannie got nailed in the face. When I first saw it, I was thinking knee. That would just be par for the season.

What gives you confidence that Angelos will act differently than he always has? That's where my concern is coming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD_washingtonredskins Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Sounds like the Dodgers will make a big push...from Bob Nightengale https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2018/06/27/manny-machado-dodgers-trade-deadline/737949002/ Quote The Los Angeles Dodgers are playing it coy, acting as if they can’t take on money, won’t give up prized prospects, and aren’t hellbent on returning to the World Series again. Don’t be fooled. They are poised to land Baltimore Orioles shortstop Manny Machado. This is the one player on the trade market who can singlehandedly change the playoff landscape, and several Major League Baseball executives and scouts told USA TODAY Sports that the Dodgers have emerged as the clear-front favorites to land Machado. The market is just starting to move now, a high-ranking Orioles executive said, and the Orioles have responded by pulling several of their professional scouts away from major-league coverage to spend time in the minor leagues scouting prospects. And, yes, they are focusing primarily on the Dodgers’ vaunted system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going up for the double header on July 9th. I am hoping Machado is traded by then. I mean, I'd love to see him play like I always do. But I want to see some trades happen and get some good prospects back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
