    • Yeah, we're kind of getting off track here since this is a Jackson Holliday thread, but I will say I don't see how Mountcastle gets traded -- and even if he did it would be to unblock Mayo and not Kjerstad.  Both Mounty and Mayo are righties, and it doesn't look like Mayo will play third base anytime soon.  I think two of the prospects need to get traded -- maybe in the offseason or next season -- unless Hays, O'Hearn or Mounty are dealt.  I think there's a chance the O's bring back Santander, but that's a big wildcard too.
    • I was in favor of trading one of Mountcastle/Hays/Santander after last year to make room for prospects like Kjerstad. I see the main issue with trading one of the above or O'Hearn is those players will deliver more value in an Orioles uniform over the return in any trade. I'm leaning towards Elias taking a calculated risk and creating at bats for Kjerstad.
    • Don't know if anyone has said this yet, but if Means makes it back to Baltimore he may be better off in the bullpen, at least for awhile.  
    • Kjerstad is blocked by Santander and especially O'Hearn.  I would be willing to take a chance trading O'Hearn to bring up Kjerstad, but I think most around here would not want to let OH go.  Maybe right most would rather trade Santander, but I think Santander is about to heat up.  We'll have to wait and see. Yeah, pretty sure Norby's defense is what has held him back so far.
