[Passan] Alonso to the Orioles

1. Hopefully this doesnt make the mets motivated to enter the tucker sweepstakes

2. Holy fuck AL east is loaded

3. This isn’t good for us on Tucker. No way the Mets get outbid now.

4. Chris Davis? Mark Trumbo? Is that you????

5. 

6. Good on the Os to actually spend for once but… Are they going to put any of that towards pitching? Their offense will be loaded with Ward and Alonso but that pitching staff looks rough even if Rogers pitches like a Cy Young candidate over a full season.

   Edit: I guess they did throw some money at Helsley, so that’s a start

7. WOW

8. I did not see that coming. Wow.

9. I had a gut feeling he was coming to the AL East, I thought it’d be to Tampa or Boston though. Genuinely didn’t think Baltimore was even an option there, holy shit.

10. Oh shit… the Polar Bear is gonna feast in the AL East.

11. Holy hell

12. Fuck this stupid ass division

13. At least Mountcastle might leave the division…

14. Damn wish he wasn’t in our division. Probably a DH at his point but will hit 40+ a year in Camden.

15. An *Oriole???*

    Didn’t have that one on my bingo card

16. Smells like the Chris Davis deal honestly

17. Orioles spending money? What year is this?

18. Polar bears like pit beef. Today I learned.

19. I hate the AL east.

20. Damn I’d be devastated if I was a Mets fan

21. Makes sense after losing out on Schwarber. But god damn, the Mets. I can see the Mets focusing hard on getting Tucker now.

22. Tucker and Bellinger’s markets just got a whole lot bigger for them. Hopefully we land Bo and Belli…or Bo and Tucker

23. We better lock down Bo or Tucker asap as the Mets are about to do something crazy in retaliation.

24. This is a really good fit. Hope he sucks there

25. After last season, the O’s are such a wildcard and I hope they don’t suddenly figure things out. The East will truly be Hell in the Cell.

27. This is gonna blow up in their faces like the Chris Davies signing.

28. Dammit

29. I hate our division

    SO

    MUCH!!!

30. The real question people should ask is why would anyone sign with the Mets after showing how clearly incompetent they are.

31. I finish the last exam for my degree and this is my reward. I hate this fucking division 🥀

32. You know what would be cool? Is if the rest of the AL East could chill the fuck out a little bit.

33. I really don’t think this is the acquisition that’s going to put the Os over the top here. I could see Alonso falling off in a few years anyway.
