The Orioles made the right call letting Jack Flaherty leave
The Orioles were buyers at the 2023 trade deadline, and one of two deals they made to add to the team was sending Drew Rom, Cesar Prieto and Zack Showalter to the St. Louis Cardinals for Jack Flaherty to add depth to their rotation.
It's safe to say now that the trade didn't work out for the Orioles. Flaherty had a 6.75 ERA and 1.67 WHIP in 34 2/3 innings with the team, making seven starts before being sent to the bullpen, where he made two appearances to end the season.
Entering free agency this offseason, Flaherty signed a one-year contract with the Detroit Tigers to try and rebuild his value. Despite recent injuries to the Orioles rotation, the Orioles won't miss Flaherty in 2024.
