\u201cOw! My own foot! Why am I shooting at it?!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"Baltimore<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

According to a bombshell report from the Winter Meetings, the Baltimore Orioles consider themselves more of a social experiment than a baseball team.<\/p>\n

In what can only be described as a hit piece on Baltimore GM Mike Elias, Pitcher List\u2019s Ben Palmer claims a source told him that the renewed optimism surrounding the Orioles\u2019 ownership change has been purposely muted by their baseball operations leader. Though new owner David Rubenstein has given Elias and Co. the \u201cgreen light\u201d to match baseball\u2019s top teams in spending, Elias is reportedly still reluctant to do so, preferring to build his roster differently.<\/p>\n

The piece goes as far as to call the current O\u2019s a \u201cvanity project\u201d for Elias, who wants Baltimore to \u201cserve as the antithesis to teams like the Yankees and Dodgers,\u201d despite the Yankees and Dodgers recently meeting in the World Series.<\/p>\n

Will he have the same vision when both Gunnar Henderson and Adley Rutschman are seeking top-dollar paydays, forcing him to choose between his own ego and the reset button?<\/p>\n
