    • My point is that several posters, including myself, found the thread title misleading.  A lot of us know that the OH can be trusted as a source of credible news and opinion.  If you want to erode that trust, one really good way to do it is to slant your thread titles as a cheap attention grab which is clearly the case here.  In the end it's an annoyance and little more, but you got some worthwhile feedback on this.
    • Good point on command vs. being a nibbler by design, it’s hard to differentiate without watching a lot of him pitch (which I have not). And 100% agreed on the cutter being a distinguishing factor for him vs those other far lesser pitching prospects - that’s part of what makes his arsenal more similar to Irvin’s (though again, his results are wildly different from Irvin’s through very different approaches/command, and better whiff stuff for Povich).  The Orioles are in a good spot with Povich, where he can probably already step up to be a SP at the MLB level if the need arises but he still has development he can continue in AAA. It’s critical to have optionable SP depth and he is now at that level and hasn’t needed to be added to the 40-man yet. The question is if he makes enough improvements in AAA this year to warrant keeping a spot in the 2025 rotation open for him this offseason. 
    • Well, you definitely got my attention!
    • yeah, they all suck, and Mountcastle's .200 last week, dump the bum! What was the front office thinking?  You available for the job?
