Lyles in 2022, Gibson in 23, Burnes in 24 and now Morton and Surgano this year. All durability guys. When it comes to signing FA SPs ,yes, I think it’s safe to say that the Orioles POBO prefers athletes risk averse … to injury.
On that note, I do believe the Os were eleventh hour candidates for retaining Burnes because he is a durability guy.
Quintana and Heaney do have injury history. So that’s a hard pass by Elias and crew.
Jeff – With all due respect, Morton will be in his Age 41 season …. I wouldn’t classify anyone that age as durable.
And Sugano’s ability to adapt to the rigors of an MLB schedule is something that needs to be monitored. We saw what happened to Yamamoto and Senga last year, it’s historically been difficult for Japanese pitchers to stay healthy coming over to MLB.
