Orioles deadline decisions will provide context to rebuild
Photo by John McCoy/Getty ImagesIt’s no surprise that Orioles fans have paid a little extra attention to trade rumors this season. As a fan of a rebuilding club, it’s really all we’ve got. That being said, this year’s rumor mill hasn’t produced a lot of action. At least not yet. And the Orioles haven’t showed many indicators that they’ll be making a lot of deals.
The reality is, for the most part, there’s just not a lot of talent to offer. The Orioles sold off several assets last season, and this 36-71 team does not have an abundance of talent. Baltimore only had one All Star this season, and John Means isn’t going anywhere.
