Corbin Burnes or an equivalent wouldn't fix everything, but doing absolutely nothing to bolster a questionable rotation did nothing to assure fans the Orioles were going to make up for the lost 5 years of 100 loss seasons and actually try to compete in 2025.

I'd like to give ownership the benefit of the doubt, but they need to do something to raise the overall payroll. I won't crucify them for missing on Burnes, but if they roll into 2025, a clear "go for it" season with a bottom 5 payroll, it's really inexcusable.
