Once Miggy is added to the O's roster again there are going to be some players being sent down. Blake Davis is getting sent back down to Frederick, but I'm not sure about everything else.
Also I was impressed with miggy's power in BP yesterday out of 30 swings he hit 14-16 bombs. Most were way out of Harry Grove Stadium.
BTW Miggy has a sweet ride 06 Escalade with 23" rims

I was going to post the same thing. Does anyone have any ideas who will be sent where?

That's a little unfortunate for Blake. I thought he was just starting to make the adjustments at Bowie. I hope he gets intense about his workouts and puts on about 7-10 pounds of muscle this off-season. Will he be able to drive the ball, or is he destined to always be compared to Brandon Fahey?

Blake is the only one I know for sure--Bowie to Frederick. Im not sure if the O's would send down Luis Hernandez to AAA.

I have a feeling the move will be Fahey being sent down to Norfolk over Luis. Then from there I have the slighest idea.

Even with intense workouts, it will be difficult for Blake to put on 5-7 pounds of muscle. I t would sure help him though if he could.

I was at the game in Binghampton last night and Davis was in the lineup. Is he going down later?

I hear you Doc, I just hope the kid can make strides in that area. Introduce him to Creatine, Protein, McDonalds...whatever it takes! Heck, put him on a Creatine I.V. and give him Protein suppositories! :D Do what you have to do (LEGALLY) and get this kid stronger.
He obviously has skills, but he needs to drive the ball more. He has 26 doubles this year, which isn't bad at all.

Creatine is just fine and dandy, but the kids gotta put in the time to make sure it works. If not, the water will sit on top of the muscle groups and he'll just balloon instead. How is the kids work ethic?

Funny, I wrote the first book on creatine and introduced many athletes to it. Most people don't understand it is not an anabolic steroid and does not create muscle. It is a natural nutrient found in meats. Like many nutrients, when combined with hard work/exercise, it can HELP build the body. For those interested in finding out what creatine REALLY is (as oppossed to the general misconceptions propagated in the media, I recommend two articles on the internet.

Excellent! I like the Rat. I hope he does well. He's my kind of player.

Yeah, that's really unfortunate for Blake, but he'll obviously be back. He's been a great player since his time at Cal State Fullerton, and I really wouldnt be surprised to see him break out in the next couple of years. He's the kind of guy that i'll be pulling for, just as i'll root for Adams and Henson to succeed.
