Good morning, Birdland!
Not everyone will agree, but the Orioles’ had a pretty good deadline day for my money. They unloaded Freddy Galvis, a shortstop they had already replaced (arguably upgraded upon), and Shawn Armstrong, a relief pitcher that was no longer even on the 40-man roster. At the same time, they held onto the big names and a slew of relief pitchers with oodles of team control remaining. Based on the chatter online, there was a large contingent of Orioles fans that would have preferred to see Tanner Scott or even Paul Fry get out of town for just about any offer that was available.
