Baltimore Orioles non-tender shortstop Tim Beckham, catcher Caleb Joseph
The Baltimore Orioles made two tough decisions on Friday night, non-tendering shortstop Tim Beckham and catcher Caleb Joseph
Whether or not the Baltimore Orioles would tender contracts to Tim Beckham and Caleb Joseph ahead of last night’s deadline has been a hot topic in Birdland over the past few weeks.
Many fans have expressed the opinion that Beckham overstayed his welcome in Baltimore, despite the fact that he was productive in late-2017 after his acquisition, and that he spent a good portion of 2018 both being shuffled around the diamond defensively, and on the disabled list recovering from core muscle surgery.
