As a Rays fan, my first reaction was that Archer won't be putting on the pinstripes anytime soon. He probably wants to go to Beantown to reunite with his mentor Price, but it wouldn't surprise me if Archer is still on the Rays in 2019. We're cleaning out all our journeymen to rebuild a strong young team, but we need at least three decent arms, and that would be Snell, Faria, and Archer, probably in that order.
(P.S. Alex Cobb has to be kicking himself for leaving the Rays to get stuck with the O's.)
I'm not sure who is stuck with who. He's 2-13 with a 6.17 ERA.
Alex Cobb has wet the bed. There are 31 other teams not named Orioles that are glad they didn't invest in him.
