Burnes, as advertised, stepped in and was an instant Ace for a staff that desperately needed one after losing Kyle Bradish to elbow surgery. Santander had a career year, though he is a bit one-dimensional as a home run hitter (while perhaps underappreciated as a right fielder).
Nevertheless, each is likely closer to the end of his career than the beginning, and each (especially Burnes) is expected to receive a lucrative (onerous for the club) long term contract.
The Orioles might do better by signing (via trade or free agency) a younger pitcher who they believe may be on the cusp of greatness (no easy task, I know); and obtaining a more complete outfielder (by trade, free agency or from within). By doing so, they will earn compensatory draft picks, while also "keeping their powder dry" for future needs (e.g., extending Gunnar Henderson).
I'd love both, but if we can only afford one, Santander is my choice.
