Orioles general manager Mike Elias and manager Brandon Hyde met with reporters two days after Baltimore was eliminated by Texas in the AL Division Series.
Orioles GM Mike Elias says team will keep ‘foot on the gas pedal’ after 101 wins and AL East titleFILE - Baltimore Orioles general manager Mike Elias looks on before a baseball game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, Tuesday, July 18, 2023, in Baltimore. With a good deal of caution, Elias has indicated that yes, the Orioles would like to pursue contract extensions for some of their top young players.
It’s not uncommon for teams to reach long-term deals with players well before they hit free agency, in a way that offers financial security for the player and cost certainty — plus a longer contract term — for the team. “When people talk about giving this player $200 million, that player $150 million, we would be so financially underwater that you’d have to raise the prices massively,” Angelos was quoted as saying.keeping the Orioles at Camden Yards another 30 years. On Thursday, Elias was asked about Angelos’ comments as they relate to extensions for young stars.
Elias was very reticent about specific players and team needs going forward, preferring to look more at the season that just ended. He does seem aware that the Orioles might have a surplus of young players who can’t all play at once.
