Had a throw last night about the 3rd or 4th inning on a routine grounder right to him and looked like he just lobbed it ti first, barely beating the runner -
If moving Tony or letting him walk and replacing him with Kjerstad opens up the financial flexibility to extend some of our core (or Burns) or acquire a top SP in FA / trade deadline salary dump, then I'm all for making that swap. -
Let's be honest, there is only so long you can have success with a 91.6 MPH sinker at the major league level. I've been waiting for the other shoe to drop on Tate because the stuff is just not very good. Sure, he has good movement on the sinker, but he has to have pinpoint control because if not, last night is going to happen. With an option, Tate is the guy that is going to go when the Orioles need to make a move. Of course besides activating Bradish or Means, there's not a lot of Norfolk relievers banging down the door. We knew going into this season the Orioles were short in the pen, especially at the tail end, but with Tate and Baumann having struggles, they are getting short on guys you can count on in the middle innings. At least Baumann will flash you stuff. Tate on the other hand looks like a dime a dozen AAA sinker-sweeper reliever. -
You can’t possibly still believe that his ABs are still “awesome” can you? You’re just in denial of his struggles, if so. Not to mention, basically every fielding play he makes becomes a close play at first. You can laugh at the comments but why don’t you tell the board why he’s looked so good in your eyes. -
Burnes, Adley, Gunnar this off-season in order of free agency.
