This came out of nowhere?

First thing the new owners need to do is sign at least 1 of Rutschman/Henderson to a long-term deal.

He's been in the booth for the past inning, sounds like he knows his baseball. Also seems like he's really about the fans, and just the money behind the team, and willing to let all the other experts in their roles make the decisions. Good for you Orioles fans! He's saying all the right things in my opinion.
