2 former players the Orioles will regret letting go, 2 where they made the right call

The Orioles will regret trading DL Hall

When the calendar turned to February, the Orioles made their biggest trade in years, landing Cy Young winner and ace Corbin Burnes from the Milwaukee Brewers, trading away a compensatory draft pick, Joey Ortiz, and DL Hall to get the deal done.

Ortiz was blocked in a crowded infield picture and has nothing left to prove at Triple A, so it made sense to move him. It also made sense to move Hall, but with the pure talent the young lefty has, it will come back to bite the Orioles.

Hall appeared in the majors down the stretch as a relief option after starting the year at Triple A as a starter. His velocity and electric arm tantalized fans and excitement was abound about what he could do in a full year in the majors.

The Brewers plan to use Hall in the rotation, and with how they transform their pitchers, Hall could be the one that got away for the Orioles. That's the price you pay for getting an ace like Burnes, but it will sting seeing Hall reach his sky-high potential in another team's uniform.
