🧵A trade involving #Marlins pitchers and #Orioles hitters still makes sense. No idea what talks have been had, but MIA is reportedly open to trading Edward Cabrera, and he’s a great fit for BAL. Here are some scenarios, starting with a simple swap: Cabrera for Jordan Westburg 
Some caveats: Baseball Trade Values is a useful way-finding tool, but it is flawed and often does not understand the market’s perspective on a player. I’m using it as a reference here and adding commentary when I think it misses the mark.
I think BTV’s valuation of Cabrera is a tad conservative. Command and durability do create reliever risk, but many evaluators will see the stuff, the size and the 2022 step forward and dream of a #2 with 6 years of control. That’s extremely valuable.

I yelled in my house
The Orioles just had back to back pinch hit homers for the first time since 1985. In 2020 anything is possible
After watching the Orioles’ Opening Day performance in Boston tonight I think we should actually cancel the season, you know, for health reasons
It’s bad for my health that they’re out there playing, I mean
Is Rio Ruiz’s hair the only thing to look forward to this year? #Orioles
It's August 28, 1974. The defending AL East champion #Orioles manage just 6 hits off the Rangers' Jackie Brown for their 4th straight loss, putting them 2 games below .500. It also drops them behind Cleveland to 4th place, 8 games behind Boston.

The O's salvage the series finale, then go to KC and sweep the Royals. Dave McNally, who took the loss against Brown in Texas, gives up a meaningless 8th-inning run in the final game of the series before mowing down the Royals in the 9th. 2/
While the Orioles are steamrolling the Royals, the Red Sox get swept by the Twins, so their lead is down to 2 games over the Yankees, with the Orioles now 5 back, in third. And the Sox are headed to Baltimore for 3 games, starting with a Labor Day doubleheader. 3/
Look. Last I checked, tweets are free. You can tweet SELL SELL SELL till your fingers fall off, but that’s not their mindset now. There’s also a difference between “selling” and “SELLING.” Let’s day for the sake of argument the #sfgiants actually took a long, hard look in ....
.... the mirror and decided they should go in for a rebuild. It’s not gonna happen, but let’s pretend. It would be foolish for them to try to move guys like Bumgarner, Belt, Panik, etc... now, in a panic, because they’ve had a 2-5 week. That’s the kind of thing you do in ....
.... the offseason, when you can form a strategy and get a multitude of teams involved to get the best possible return. #orioles should have done that last winter with Machado and got fleeced. By then you’ll also have a better idea on Duggar, Slater, maybe Shaw and where they ...
