I vote ABCD
It is the closest to how we will end up using our pitchers by the all-star break anyway. Might as well engineer the rotation to best maximize it rather than pretend we have guys that can go past 4 innings. Heck with this plan bring Kojii back as our ace.
Truthfully, I think that this is radical but right now the Orioles may just need radical to get shaken out of the doldrums. I say give it a go.
My vote can be bought with amazon gift cards
Just putting that out there.

I realized on my way to work that I schedule this without putting in a poll
I am only just now able to add it.
Why some pitchers would not like ABCD
The A pitcher would never get a win if they are not the pitcher of record, only the B,C, or D reliever could. So you might would have to swap up the Day rotation. Whoever is A first game is B next time and C becomes A, B becomes C.

That is true, they would have to be fairly selfless and team focused
Haha no contracts with traditional performance incentives. Sure if you hit 200 innings we will throw an extra 5 mil in….
I must study them more carefully.
A long time ago, a baseball statistician decided that a team should bat its best hitter 1, its second best hitter 2, and so on. This way, the better hitters get more at bats over the season. Wonder if it would work.
Supposed to be Cuban
But i think Human actually sounds better
Is Wada not a perfect fit for the ABCD plan?
My favorites are the ABCD and Bargain Hunting, however one is already dead in the water…

TLDR
Unfortunately those sentiments extend to every story about baseball. Maybe see y’all in March. sigh.
Congrats Loss Leaders, my vote for best title.
I'm not tring to be a sore loser or anything, I swear
But I’m just wondering how, in the last 12 hours, there has been 34 new votes (Almost equal to the total number of votes yesterday), and every single one of them went to “You mean to tell me he’s cuban?”
Unfortunately my Mother has a very large mouth
and decided to tell all her friends to vote for me. It’s not really against the rules, but I’m fine with excluding all the votes I received today which should put me back around 12.
