Sunday Bird Droppings: Looking ahead to the Orioles non-tender decisions

Hello, friends.

There are now 130 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2021. Exactly three months today, the Orioles are scheduled to have their first full squad workout of spring training. We can all hope that both of these things occur as scheduled.

The next offseason day of real interest for O’s fans is going to be the December 2 deadline for teams to decide whether to tender contracts to their players for 2021. It is unusual for a player to be non-tendered, but it does happen, usually when a team deems that a player’s expected arbitration raise exceeds what the team is willing to pay for him.
