@wbalradio: The Baltimore Orioles have traded three-time all-star catcher Adley Rutschman to the Boston Red Sox, according to sources. WBAL's Valerie Preactor breaks down the trade and whether this trade makes sense for the team.

Brian :

You do know Adley rejected all extension offers. He was going to walk when his contract was up.

Mike :

They got prospects that wont help us at all until all of our current guys are gone

skippy :

doesn't make any sense?!?!? Os got an ace, a 4 , a stud bad and more for Adley Bustman. What are you talking about?!?!

Rdissle 🇺🇸🦅🥓 :

I don’t understand how this trade is confusing to people. It’s an overpay for Boston. Baltimore got back a really good package of prospects I really like and Boston got a much needed upgraded catcher. Yes it’s an overpay. I don’t understand how this trade is confusing.

Sharon Peters :

Adley was my favorite player on the team. The Orioles by far got the better part of that trade. Please trade that tiny second baseman.

rbrech58 :

silly silly. great trade for the Os

SmallShipAlaskaCruising :

prospects for a proven stud, I'll take it as a Sox fan.

Stevie Griffin :

He wasn’t all that..

RAIDERS1983 :

LOOK WHAT THE O'S RECEIVED ON THE TRADE.

John Najjar :

He not signed for fans.

njb021 :

I don’t see what’s confusing. We’re sellers, he wasn’t going to re-sign and therefore was traded for a haul. And we do have Basallo. It is very sad though

Matt Louis :

O’s will always disappoint 😞

mouseman :

Well o’s need to do something in order to make play offs being 11.5 out.

Thomas Baker669 :

watched a Boston reporter and they are upset with all they gave away. It was a prime time to trade him. He will be missed but it was time.They are not one or two players away from the series.

Rick21286 :

lol we had no chance of resigning him

user736502386829 :

They are giving up

skippy :

do you seriously work for wbal?

Garo :

forget Adley.

snooticus :

I dont get why no one realizes we won this trade lol

Sgt C :

Ummm, thank you

Hipmomellie :

You guys got really good prospects from us. I was completely crushed that they got rid of Eyanston. Give him a couple of years at most and he will be an ace picture.

pbppbppbp :

Boston loving this

tgrlvr :

Welcome to my world

Leo :

I just gave up on the Orioles 😏
