Is Gary Sanchez a smart signing for the Orioles? $8.5 million seems steep for a backup catcher, even in this market. Are the Orioles overpaying for a name, or are they getting a legitimate offensive upgrade who can handle sharing time with Adley Rutschman? With their young core developing, are the Orioles prioritizing the present over the future? Could this move hinder Samuel Basallo's development?
This signing also raises questions about the Orioles' overall offensive strategy. Are they going all-in on power, even if it means sacrificing defense and contact? O'Neill and Sanchez both have high strikeout rates. Is this a sustainable approach in today's game, or are the Orioles setting themselves up for disappointment? How will this impact their performance against left-handed pitching?
It will be interesting to see how Sanchez performs in Baltimore. Will he recapture his early career form, or will he continue to be an inconsistent player? Is this a one-year gamble that could pay off big, or a costly mistake? Let the debate begin!
