Ryan Mountcastle to the Red Sox and what could be an expected return?
Mark P
10:54
An intra-division trade like this doesn't seem too likely
Gwynning

How soon until we see Misiorowski in Milly-wah-kay? Dude is owning AAA
Mark P
10:57
That's Algonquin for "the good land"

He'll be in the majors at some point in 2025, but the Brewers seem to have (incredibly) stabilized their rotation after the huge slate of injuries.

Why hasn't the Braves or Royals gone and got someone like Andrew Benintendi
Mark P
10:58
As noted earlier, too expensive
IKF
10:58
Could IKF be on the move come July?
Mark P
10:59
He's not hitting much, but as an infield depth pickup, absolutely
Cap
11:00
What is your thought on having  a cap for teams? Especially a bottom cap?
Mark P
11:02
Amusingly, my first take on this question was "baseball teams already wear caps."

I don't think having a salary cap would do much to help competitive balance in baseball.  A floor helps on paper, yet no floor happens without a cap, and the MLBPA will simply never accept a cap

Stowers and Norby for Trevor Rogers. Looked awful at the time, and even worse now. With the Orioles having been so poorly managed over the past 9 months or so, is Elias on the hot seat despite his successful rebuild?
Mark P
11:04
Between the tough start and a new owner being in place, you can make an argument that Elias might in some trouble.

But, I do think he's going to get plenty of opportunity to get the team out of it.  Maybe in a month, the Orioles will be winning again and the ugly April will be just a memory.

Time to wrap things up for the evening.  Thanks for all your questions, and another Weekend Chat will be launched roughly 6-7 days from now.
