Erik Kratz Says Whether It’s Grayson Rodriguez Ascending Or An Acquisition, Orioles Need An Ace By Trade Deadline

Foul Territory host and former MLB catcher Erik Kratz was a guest on Glenn Clark Radio Wednesday.

Among the topics he discussed were:
-Measuring the quality of the Orioles’ roster during his Spring Training visit to Sarasota vs. the disappointment fans feel about what they didn’t do this offseason
-Do the Orioles need a true “ace” or do they have enough bulk pitching to win without one?
-Is it a problem for the Orioles to be seemingly hoarding prospects like Heston Kjerstad and Coby Mayo or is that a good problem because they need the depth?
-Why he’s not concerned about Adley Rutschman’s struggles from last season
-Could it be practical that in 2026 Rutschman and Samuel Basallo could form a timeshare?
