MASN: Some premature Orioles prediction talk

I would make no 2025 projections until more of the roster is known. Namely what they do to replace Burnes. To me that's the key.

Article isn't about predicting 2025 record.  It's about predicting offseason moves.  Discussing Jim Bowden and The Athletic's predictions.  Those predictions aren't indicative of anything, so its just a fun exercise. 

 

One name that was discussed that we haven't talked about much is Mason Miller.  I doubt that A's trade him for less than anything insane, and I doubt anyone gives up that huge haul to take on the gamble of converting him back to SP, but its an interesting idea.

"OK, if you’re going to press me, the Orioles make the playoffs in 2025. That’s all I’ve got."

About 3 sentences, including the one you quoted, on why people should ignore record predictions until rosters are set followed by about 30 sentences discussing offseason move predictions from various sources.  The article isn't about predicting the record.
