Now that the baseball season has concluded, teams have about two weeks of exclusive rights to negotiate with their free agents. The Orioles have no potentially significant free agents to speak of, but do have a couple of interesting decisions to make. Relievers Mark Hendr

So apparently Aroldis Chapman met with the O's today. In case you didn't know, he is the 22 year old Cuban lefty that has been known to hit the radar gun with a consistant 100 mph fastball. But I wouldn't get my hopes up on this one everyone. Chapman is eventually going to get the biggest paycheck by either the Angels,

Rich J. Hill, Jeff Fiorentino, and Guillermo Rodriguez all declined minor league assignments, so they all became FA's. Does this mean the

Armando Gambino was claimed off waivers by the Orioles from the Twins today. All I can say is who? Per rotoworld he posted a 2.94 era in Triple A in 98 innings but was shelled in a brief stint in the majors.25 years old and nothing more than a bullpen guy at best.

All Orioles fans know that the Baltimore front office will be looking for players to improve the club. There are three areas that appear to be the priorities. The need for a corner infielder with right handed power, a veteran pitcher and a bullpen arm or two. I don't think anyone can argue against that strategy. But this thread isn'

We get Ryan Zimmerman and we tarde Nolan Reimold and Jake Arritea to the Nationals. Would the nationals do that trade? O's could also throw in a third b level prospect

I've been reading the paper and MacPhail was said to mention he would like to sign a player like Glaus, Delgado or Beltre. Now I was thinking about which player I would like to play on this Oriole's team and I'm not quite sure yet. I don't want Glaus because I feel like he doesn' have it in him anymore and I've just never been a Glaus fan. So to me it comes between Beltre and Delgado. If I ha

Adam Jones has won the gold glove. It was posted by his brother on my space and they didnt know the validity of it but that might be MLB way of saying Reimold wont get the ROY.

The team also hired Jeff Datz as bench coach. Datz spent the past eight seasons on the Cleveland Indians' staff, including four years as bench coach.

I just read on MLBTR that Carlos Lee might be available from Houston because of his contract over the next 3 years. Most agree that we need a big right-handed bat in the lineup, and he sure can be that. Plus, we can put him at DH, and either move Scott to 1st or trade him for more organizational depth or a veteran starting pitcher. What do you guys think?

Just a little thread to lighten the mood, make some jokes about ourselves and our team, and really just have a good time. I'll get this started.

These guys are doing amazing in the Arizon Fall League and hopefully this is a sign to come. Snyder currently leads the league with 15 RBI's and Josh Bell is second in the league with a .464. AVG. I'm very excited that these guys are doing so well because I want these guys to be our long term corner infielders. Snyder has moved around at many positions during the minors and seems to have fina

The Orioles board has been dead so I thought I'd start a fun thread...
Over 12 years have passed since Oct. 15, 1997 when the Orioles - bidding to tie the ALCS at 3 games apiece - lost a heartbreaking Game 6 to the Indians, 1-0 in 11 innings. I was stuck in traffic o
