Good morning, Camden Chatters.
One thing you definitely cannot accuse Mike Elias of is being inactive at the trade deadline.
Woo boy. The Orioles pulled off a chaotic flurry of trades yesterday, most of them within the last half hour before the 6 pm deadline, that have re-shaped a large chunk of the Birds’ roster for the stretch run. In all, the O’s made an eye-popping five swaps yesterday with five different teams, in addition to the two previous trades they made late last week.
Mark Brown has a breakdown of all of yesterday’s swaps, from acquiring Trevor Rogers early in the afternoon to the frenetic trading spree that came down at the wire.
