Hello, friends.
There are now 134 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2018. Two more days remain for the nine qualifying offer free agents to decide whether or not they will accept offers from their former teams. Reportedly, all nine will decline the offer this year. The Orioles would lose their third-highest pick to sign one of those players.
Later on today, the winners of the BBWAA Manager of the Year awards will be announced. Safe to say that Buck Showalter will not be factoring into that contest this season. As to who will win, who cares?
