It is time for another edition of "10 Questions for O's Fans." As you probably know, we do this about once a month to survey the pulse of Birdland on a variety of topics. Feel free to answer one or all 10 question and provide short answers or long ones. It's your call and your opinions we're looking for.

This edition features a twist. Every question today comes from an Orioles fan and reader of this blog. The 10th question when we did this last month was, "What question should we ask next time?' So here are some of your answers that provided today's questions.

Now the latest edition of 10 questions:

1) In what year will the O's win their next World Series?

2) Will the Orioles sign extensions with Manny Machado, Chris Tillman, Adam Jones or Jonathan Schoop before opening day, and which one/ones will get the extension?

3) How many innings will Dylan Bundy pitch next year?

4) The World Series featured Cleveland and the Chicago Cubs. Do readers really think the current Orioles could win a seven-game series against these teams?

5) Which player currently in the O's minor league system will have the largest impact on the team in 2017? In his career?

6) If you were general manager for a day and had to keep a reasonable salary limit, what one move would you look to make this offseason?

7) What are some ideas to improve attendance next season?

8) What is manager Buck Showalter's biggest flaw?

9) What's the tipping point where Machado must be traded and a rebuild begun if extensions can't be reached?

10) Which Orioles starter or key contributor is primary trade bait and why?
