Trade Deadline nears, teams with prospect troves and could Jackson Holliday get moved?

the prior prospects traded board is a good reminder to GO FOR IT!

How about Skubal for Mayo and Kjerstad+? Before anyone comments, the O's aren't trading Holliday. Also, the O's trying to replace Norby instead one of Mayo or Kjerstad, the Tigers won't bite on that. In fact, Mayo, Kjerstad and Povich for Skubal would be fair and a decent haul for the Tigers.

best time of the year!

Love the shows. Thanks for doing them. I am really interested in minor league players and stats. Do you have any recommendations for sources for more information on them. Thank you

I’m starting to get really sick of people acting like Corbin Burnes has already signed with another team and has no shot of being an Oriole next year. Listen, Burnes has been EXTREMELY open about the fact that he values winning above all things and desires postseason pitching above anything else. The Orioles are more poised to win over the next 10 years than any other organization in baseball based on our young talent. Also, we have a new owner that also been EXTREMELY open about his intentions to spend the money the previous owners would not spend, and supporting the team in every conceivable fashion financially. Corbin is Rubenstein’s opportunity to show Baltimore and all of baseball that he’s not full of poop. The only reason they haven’t signed him yet is because he’s a Scott Boris client. Rubenstein is no fool, he’s playing this perfectly. He’s going to let Burnes test free agency, field offers across all of baseball, so he can match or beat any other offer which shows Burnes how much he means to the team bc he let him go field offers and straight up beat them and he shows all of baseball he’s not fking around at all and there’s a new regime in Baltimore that NY & Boston can no longer write off. All that has to happen from here is the Orioles have to have a more successful October than last year’s sweep. Next year we have Bradish, Means and Bautista coming back between Spring Training and September. We also have Holliday, Mayo and Norby becoming full time players next year with Basallo close behind. This team has insane upgrades coming next year from within the organization. If we do something crazy like win the AL pennant which we are favored to win right now, Burnes will know, at that point, that he will win a World Series in Baltimore, likely multiples, but certainly multiple pennants. The front office is simply affording him the opportunity to sign his contract with the Orioles knowing that he is getting the absolute best contract he could have gotten while knowing he’s going to be pitching in the World Series. How is no one noticing that the Orioles are just setting this up to be the loudest statement they could possibly make? As far as I’m concerned, he’s already an Oriole for the next 5-7 years minimum, and I’m befuddled as to how no one else is realizing this bc the Orioles have the third lowest payroll in baseball with two of their highest paid players not even on the big league roster(Jackson Holliday and Chris Davis, and Davis’ $15 million will be coming off the payroll at the end of 2024 and Holliday’s $8+ million is from a signing bonus which means over $23 million falls off the Orioles payroll at the end of this year. Rubenstein intentionally jumped Davis from $1 million/year to $15M+. Corbin Burnes will probably command $20-25M/year. How is no one noticing that he commands almost exactly what we expect to open up at the end of this season? Cmon folks, it’s all public information). Corbin is the Orioles ace of today and the future and the way you show him that is by letting him see that they’ll pay him as much, or more, than any other team, and showing him that he can expect to only see improvements made by the front office every year. Wake up people, Corbin Burnes is technically a free agent at the end of this year, but based solely on a formality and not any form of reality. So get used to seeing him Oriole Orange.

Kjerstad seems like the one that is a lock to be dealt by O's. I think Norby is gone too

Orioles get Efflin and Dominguez. Look out American League teams! If the Orioles lock down Mason Miller, the Baltimore Orioles will represent the AL in the fall classic without question.

The question is for Bal is Jackson trade value that for now.

Corbin Burnes is 100% going to be an Oriole in 2025.
