Before his first workout with the Washington Nationals, former Orioles catcher Matt Wieters discussed his time with his former team, saying that the Orioles never truly attempted to retain him this offseason.
He spoke fondly of his eight years in Baltimore, saying he will undoubtedly miss the clubhouse atmosphere and his teammates.
At the same time, Wieters spoke about the lessons he's learned about the baseball business, and how he saw that with Nick Markakis' departure following the 2014 season, and how he mentally prepared at the end of last season that his days with the Orioles were likely ending.
