Rasmus will make little difference in B'more. What we really needed to compete was solid pitching and we got none. Both Cashner & Tillman are backend rotation guys, Gausman and Bundy middle of the rotation guys that while they have a few innings under their respective belts, should be middle of rotation guys with two solid starters with more of a pedigree in front of them. It is apparent the O's are not trying to win since both the Yankees and Boston have loaded up. I say, all in for a complete rebuild, stop wasting time, money and what fans are left, their time too. This team may eclipse 100 losses."The Orioles have agreed to a deal with free-agent outfielder Colby Rasmus, according to MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand (Twitter link). Eduardo Encina of the Baltimore Sun had strongly connected the sides this morning. It’s a minor-league pact, per the report.
Baltimore has been looking for a lefty outfield bat all winter long, and may now have found its man. Rasmus will still need to earn his way onto the roster, of course, but the O’s presently have no left-handed-hitting outfielders on the 40-man after designating Jaycob Brugman earlier today."
I never liked the guy, he's a head case. Plays hard though. We'll see if he makes the team.
