  5. I have not seen ONE article or report sighting sources saying the Orioles OR ANY OTHER TEAM has intrest in or has made offers to Valdez. NOT ONE! I've seen alot of articles speculating that every team that is in the market for pitching must be interested in Valdez, but not one that sites sources of any real intrest. I've seen articles sighting sources that they were all in on Suarez, and linking them to possible trades for Gore, and Peralta and others, and every time one of them comes off the board I hear official scources linking the Orioles to another pitcher, Verlander, ect, but not one for Valdez! I don't think any team has, or should offer Valdez more than a 1 year prove it contract, due to his attitude. Throwing at your own teammates is inexcusable! And refusing to admit you did it on purpose just proves you are not willing to deal with the issue. Here's hoping the Orioles sign ANYONE ELESE, just so we can say they are done, and stop trying to link us to this clubhouse cancer!

  6. WHAT have I been saying? Pitchers whose spin rates (elbow) and velocity (shoulder) are going downward are on their way to surgery. Guys coming OFF of surgery are the ones you want. You signs a tired arm to a 5 year deal, you get 2 of those 5 years and only 1 of the 5 a decent pitcher. This is why you DON'T want Zac Gallen!!! He's the bad version of Giolito. Framber Valdez may be as well – only with a much bigger price tag. Giolito might well be the add they need with this kind of offense. Do NOT sign Framber Valdez. He's a clubhouse destroying head-case.

  8. My fear with Giolito is the ‘25 nightmare called Charlie Morton…. Please let’s not go there. Gallen is head-and-shoulders above Giolito.
