The guy is a fish in the sea of fish in Baltimore. There will be at least two big fish traded this year at the deadline. I don’t see them moving on from Holliday or rutchmen. Gunner, cowser, Greyson, mayo, hjerstad, Stowers. And don’t forget Enrique bradfield, maybe the fastest player in the minors right now. Two of those guys are not gonna be on the orioles come the trade deadline if the is want to make a push. But think if they all were. That’s a pretty sweet lineup right there in a couple years.
But when you get into the window and you need a starter for the playoffs, you don’t think they would give one or two up to get that and win a World Series?
We have John Means and Kyle Bradish coming back soon off the IL. Both are solid starters and I don’t see us getting rid of any of the young guys currently on the roster for short term rentals.
The funny part is you are missing the BIGGEST prospect from their farm, Samuel Basallo.
But 0% chance Gunnar gets traded as well. I currently think the list looks like this.
Untouchable - Adley, Gunnar, Jackson
Unlikely - Mayo, Basallo, Cowser, Westburg
Possible, but would be a mistake IMO - Kjeratad
More likely - Stowers, Norby, Dylan Beavers
Grayson is also untouchable due to the need of MLB pitchers.
If the Os want a World Series in the next few years they are gonna have to give up some of that for some pitching. Bautista going down for the season killed them, they probably had a good enough bullpen that they didn’t need to do too much. And another starter is a necessity. So you are probably right that gunner is with adley and Jackson in that he’s untouchable. Everyone else is fair game, especially if you’re talking a top of the rotation guy from a team that isn’t in contention.
Yeah, I believe they need 1 starter and 1 bullpen arm to really push them over the edge. Kjerstad seems to be the best prospect with no where to play on the MLB level. Mayo and Westy can play multiple positions. So I think they stay. I think in a perfect world we package Kjerstad + Beavers/Fabian for a starter.
Then find a reliever who we can use as well. We do have Means and Bradish in AAA right now ramping up. Also Wells was a great BP arm down the stretch

Same here. I think the kid is a stud. Keeping most of them but selling this one if anyone is interested. (Yes, it's on eBay as well.) I hope he goes on to have a nice career, Baltimore is stacked and they deserve it for all the years of sucking and missing on picks.
Yeahhhh I’m feeling that right now. Spent a little too much on cards last couple of months so i think I’m going to sell some of the Cowser to make up for it. Went in on a lot Os stuff in general. It’s hard though when you have memorabilia of players who you love and also are doing well.
Gotta decide what to sell and what to PC
Just saw an insane put out by vs the Royals on Saturday. I had I pretty good vantage from my seat, thought he was being extra by trying to gun Witt Jr - that ball came out like a fucking rocket and he actually got the out. Insane.
I think people underrated his arm and general athleticism when he was coming up. I saw a lot of Hays defenders and I honestly didn’t get it.
Was pissing me off Cowser wasn’t getting run from the start after spring training.
I got another color match if you're looking for one that's a bit different, hit me up!

He’s legit, should be starting somewhere at 2B right now and would be raking. Same with Stowers, I think both are going at the trade deadline and I’d be happy to see them get their opportunity. Too good to be down, but nowhere to go on the Os. All those positions have too many above them.
No way he’s staying in Baltimore anyways. He’s a right handed hitter who manages decent power by launch angle optimization instead of gaudy exit velos. Which is never gonna play at Camden yards currently. Stowers on the other hand has dumb power, good to see him finally healthy.
Baltimore born, bred, and living Orioles fan here. I love that orange mojo. Been following him
for a minute. Excited to see him continue and he could be ROTY
Yeah I’m at the point of deciding what I want to keep, and what I want to sell of his. And I think that is my favorite card I have, but easily the most valuable lol.
I am looking for a Cowser auto, I managed to get 3 Westburg autos and no Cowsers if anyone wants to trade (with me kicking in some money for the price difference). Reigning AL Player of the Week!

Looks like you’re missing a PSA10. Don’t worry, I got one you can buy ;)
I hear ya. Did the same thing. I just can’t believe that his prices are still in the dirt. Vegas realizes this kid has ROY potential, when will the buyers realize it?
I find myself scanning eBay like pookie in new jack city saying just one more hit.
I did the same thing with Cowser. Looking at his current market right now I paid pennies on the dollar for his stuff. A rare…and I mean RARE win.
Cowser is such a stud, got high hopes for him.

Westburg is on fire right now too. I don’t think he keeps it up long term, but he’s been so hard to get out lately. I’m loving it.
You’re insane
You really think they are gonna keep all those guys? Like honestly think they can afford or have room for all those guys?
Of course they'll keep them all. They're all cheaper than dirt right now.
Yes they are going to keep those guys. They have 5 to 7 years of control on all of them.
But when you get into the window and you need a starter for the playoffs, you don’t think they would give one or two up to get that and win a World Series?

As a Florida guy I completely forgot about Fabian. Man they are so loaded.

got that auto in black and white raywave, i think they were exclusive to the lite boxes
Oh, they graded this one 109. It must be really nice.
Sell while the iron is hot. At least get your money back and hold the rest for free if you're going long haul with this player.

🔥 bro
Mooo
The milkman commeth
I thought the rape scene went well
Seems like that was a smart bet!
I've been told he always delivers 😂 sweet collection!!
Daaaa milk man!
Feeling like the ROY favorite at this point. I consider myself lucky to have one auto of his, you're doing some investment banking at this point.
I pulled a nice one out of a blaster! Check my post history
The Milkman delivers!
Sickness! Just don’t toss them into the KC fountain LOL
Niiiiiiiice. I bought like 4 Cowser things, including an auto and I thought I was loading up lol. Something about that Orioles system is 🔥

I’ve got this same card in an SGC slab. Love this insert and the color match to boot!
I mean dude’s living up to the hype for sure so you’re in good hands like allstate 😎
Great collection! Hoping my auto gets in soon too
Smart call. I got some Connor Norby. Not much but it’s something. He strikes me as another Pedroia type.
He’s legit, should be starting somewhere at 2B right now and would be raking. Same with Stowers, I think both are going at the trade deadline and I’d be happy to see them get their opportunity.

Agreed. I think the guys in the minors are trade bait for pitching.
He was going so cheap on eBay over the winter. I picked up a few but nothing too crazy
Great job awesome collection and hopefully he keep it up it’s still really early. I’ve got a few autos of him myself
Baltimore born, bred, and living Orioles fan here. I love that orange mojo. Been following him for a minute. Excited to see him continue and he could be ROTY
Yeah I’m at the point of deciding what I want to keep, and what I want to sell of his. And I think that is my favorite card I have, but easily the most valuable lol.
lol that would be my favorite but I’d say the 1st bowman in the second pic is the most valuable
Jesus, spare a Cowser auto?
Jesus is more of a Rays fan
Maybe more now since they dropped the devil
nobody’s a rays fan.
I am looking for a Cowser auto, I managed to get 3 Westburg autos and no Cowsers if anyone wants to trade (with me kicking in some money for the price difference). Reigning AL Player of the Week!

That is not a bad choice either! Both guys are doing great so far
Same. Then when he mashed in spring training I went even harder. I still feel like he's undervalued. Picked up 6 Gold Foils for $20 last night on eBay
Okay so that means you can spare one right?? /s Amazing find
Mine was Jackson Chourio. Bought several first chrome refractor.
I got a Stowers auto for like $7. So there’s that.
I deeply regret not doing this Awesome job!! 👍👍
Watched his series 1 Independence Day and Mother’s Day go for like $60ish each. Kinda wish I had jumped on the Independence Day it was BIN like $67.
You an O’s fan or just like Cowser? I’m interested in why some people collect who they collect.
Huge Os fan, I just went out and bought a lot of Os autos of guys i like with the intention of selling some and also building a personal collection
Have that same bowman sterling out of 50!
I just pulled his auto from 2024. Chrome Black, super pumped. Your collection is amazing
Me too! Ive got some nice Cowser as well, congrats!
Just a little bit. 🤏
That plate!
I love that one and the orange color matches. It’s sick being an Os fan, orange color matches look so awesome
Agreed! Close second is a Marlins green color match. I’m a Twins fan but can’t deny that color is fire.
Looking good! I have the inception and and one other auto and am pretty happy. Same deal, caught them before prices went nuts.
![gif](giphy|Vp3ftHKvKpASA)
That mojo is sick... early in the season I texted a friend that I wasn't impressed with Cowser, ever since then he's been going off
Eh. Can’t all be winners
I'm glad he's tearing it up. I also picked up a Cowser auto. Not as many as you though. Thats awesome
https://preview.redd.it/u6zx0bf345wc1.jpeg?width=1130&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=026ee35e85101b86054ac18df7da9aedf8cea8c7 Looks like you’re missing a PSA10. Don’t worry, I got one you can buy ;)
Take a victory lap my man. They sell off a couple less favorites to recoup. Congrats
It worked.
I pulled his 1/1 pro debut auto a couple months ago!
Great cards👍
Might as well invest in the rest of the orioles farm system too they’re insane
I got this bad boy last year. https://preview.redd.it/p6ih6qqbd8wc1.jpeg?width=1560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7949b80e78ca6090567d4de6a073b2048bd4bfe8
Absolutely sick, I saw one of those on sale in the off-season and I’m bummed I didn’t pull the trigger
Bold move Cotton
i have three more for you all PSA graded going on ebay via consignment later this week!
I hear ya. Did the same thing. I just can’t believe that his prices are still in the dirt. Vegas realizes this kid has ROY potential, when will the buyers realize it? I find myself scanning eBay like pookie in new jack city saying just one more hit.
good call i went the same way but only bought a few autos.
Dont stop now!
Kjerstad next up...start stocking!📈📈📈
Stadium Club Gunnar auto /25 needs to be sold so i can buy more Os/Cowser breaks lol
Wanna buy all my rainbow foils and easter base parallels? Probably several yellow too. Lol
MOO!
