Who were they going to sign? The only holes they had were SP, 1B (before Davis resigned ) Corner OF, DH.
They signed Trumbo who can play 1B/DH
They signed Kim for OF
They signed Gallardo for SP
They still will probably sign Fowler for OF.
All of these moves were done relatively cheap.
No one expected Wieters to take the QO so nothing they could do about that.
Im not going to complain about the Orioles spending money to keep Davis when for years before they never would spend big money to kerp guys or sign free agents. Everyone is expecting the Davis signing to blow up in their face, but it csnt be any worse than Albert Belle, vlad Guerrero, Sammy Sosa, NOT resigning nelson Cruz after 2014, etc..
The only potential worry any Os fan has is thst Davis contract might hinder them from being able to resign Machado who will get a bigger payday than anyone gotbthis offseason..
