Pretty much the only type of hire the Orioles could realistically make. A young guy who knows all about being part of an organization that was basically in shambles and building it back up.

Best wishes to him. I've always had a soft spot for the Orioles. Hoping they can get it back together.

The Orioles passed the Buck and now want to walk with Elias.

not that i know who is this guy but i like this quote:

A young Ivy Leaguer with a solid background in scouting, a deep understanding of analytics and a firm commitment to the international market puts Elias in step with the growing trend in baseball. The Orioles finally became resistant to falling behind.

look at what happens when Peter Angelos isn't running things anymore. Maybe with his sons in control they won't be a dysfunctional mess.

I hate that they Americanized the name Elias

Would Orioles players learn to walk with Elias?
