2015 Minors Spring Camp

Saturday. March 21, 2015

The Minor League pitchers scheduled to pitch Friday in the games against the Red Sox, but were bumped by the Major League pitchers, did get to pitch in an extra game with reserve position players. A little confusion added to the fun today as Dylan Bundy wore Bobby Bundy?s jersey during his pitching turn. Dylan?s wasn?t out of the dryer in time so he grabbed his brother?s. Hunter Harvey took a hard comebacker to the leg today and will be examined by a physician on Sunday.

Scheduled to pitch Saturday are:

Norfolk: Drake (1), McCoy (2), Cabral (2), Kasparek (2), Prado (2).

Bowie: D. Bundy (2), Delgado (2), Hart (2), Rheault (1), Yacabonis (1), Torres (1).

Frederick: Harvey (2), Wager (2), Crichton (1), Bill (1), Trowbridge (1), Nowottnik (1), McGranahan (1).

Delmarva: Cosme (2), Long (2), Ayers (1), Pinales (1), Nootbaar (1), Lin (1), Burke (1).

Sunday is a camp day with no games against team outside of the Orioles. Normally on camp days, players will work on special drills and have intra-squad games.

Today, the A squads were away while Norfolk and Bowie at Twin Lakes.

Norfolk Lineup:

CF: Ruettiger.

2B: Navarro.

DH: Walker.

1B: Halton.

LF: Tuiasosopo.

C: Perez; Freitas (T6)

3B: S. Schoop.

RF: Burgess.

SS: Martinez.

DH: Gibson (2AB): Latimore.

Reserves: (LH) Chavez, (RH) Ward, Almanzar.

Bowie:

CF: Lorenzo.

SS: Marin.

DH: Mancini.

RF: Simpson.

1B: Haerther.

C: Russell.

DH: Hewitt.

2B: Pena.

3B: Hutter.

LF: Vega.

Reserves: (LH) Nathans, Herbst, Hart, Webb. (RH) Sawyer, Starr, Esposito, Perez.

Delmarva Projections: There is a huge numbers crunch for the Delmarva roster. It was already known that there would be twice as many pitchers capable of making the team as there are openings, but now it appears that there is plenty of competition for the position players as well. Here are my projections coming into spring training and so far I haven?t changed them. Pitchers: B. Gonzales, Hess, Connaughton (after 1 month is extended to get in pitching shape). Catchers: Heim, A. Murphy. IF: Reyes, Anderson. OF: Leyva, Hart.

Photos: Still working on how to post the photos.

      Aram loves the pitch metrics on Povich and McDermott. Was effusive in his spring podcast going through Os top prospects.

      Yesterday's Lineup - Thank You Mike Elias and Sig Mejdal

      Let’s also give the org credit for the O’Hearn pickup.  He was part of last night’s lineup.  For that matter, they picked up Mateo too.

      Thank you.  Not sure how easy for someone who may have been doing it for years and someone who’s been talented enough to make it work.   Someone posted a video of Freddie Freeman and Holliday to show similarities but, to me, it just showed how different their lead foot was.  Freeman’s was closed and perfectly in line and parallel to his back foot.  Hollidays foot pointed out and the foot towards 2B position.  I questioned it.  Other guys, who admittedly know more, said it was no problem.  Again, he might be able to become a HOF with those mechanics.  I’ve just never seen a good ML hitter hit that way. From that early January thread “I guess it depends on your definition of “step in the bucket”.  His stride foot definitely doesn’t go straight.  Pretty easy to see where his foot is in relation to the batters box and how much further away it is when it lands.  It doesn’t seem to affect him negatively though.  Interestingly enough, Freeman’s stride foot goes perfectly straight.” Edited January 6 by RZNJ

      Cade Povich 2024

      He allowed only one batted ball over 95 MPH, commanding his cutter particularly well in this one. I think the cutter is the most critical pitch for Povich to take the next step. He’s never had issues getting punch outs, he needs to be able to pitch in the zone without relying too much on his fastball. It’s also a key weapon against RHP - if you don’t have a true plus breaking ball or fastball that can overcome the platoon splits (which I don’t think Povich does), you can only make it as a LHP SP through the strength of your cutter and changeup, which are more reverse/neutral splits.  His changeup is probably not good enough to carry him on its own, so it’s the cutter that brings the whole pitch mix together.

      Agree he steps in the bucket. In theory should be a relatively easy fix.

      His back or shoulder might give out first. Hardly any talented pitcher retires without some sort of serious injury recorded.
