Good morning, Camden Chatters.
With every day that passes without the Orioles making a significant pitching acquisition, the fan base gets increasingly grumpier. The Yankees have landed their ace (Max Fried) this winter. So have the Red Sox (Garrett Crochet). The O’s, meanwhile, may well lose their ace, with free agent Corbin Burnes attracting attention — and hefty contract offers — from plenty of suitors.
There’s quite a bit of offseason left, of course. The Orioles have some time to assure they don’t come up empty. But for those fans who are pessimistic about the Orioles’ chances of making a big move, yesterday’s Mike Elias article by Ben Palmer of Pitcher List sure didn’t put their minds at ease.
