For sure. I like the bat, but if he can't play SS, I'm not sure there's a spot on the roster for him
-
I think the people here who thought our farm system would be ranked higher on account of our 6 PTBNLs are in for a rude awakening.
Which isn't a knock on either of the young men we received. They seem like decent enough lottery tickets--just not the kind of players who boost minor league system rankings -
That was one ugly scoreless inning

Ruiz has plenty of rope because we have no 3B prospects. Rylan is literally it, and he's not a sure thing.
If you mean near-MLB ready, then sure. Otherwise, you made Gunnar Henderson, Coby Mayo and maybe Toby Welk cry

I agree. I want to see these young players step up and deliver. I want to see Kremer continue to do well, I want to see if Akin can bounce back from his last disaster. It's more important to see the youngsters that we already have deliver the goods rather than tanking for some pick.
We don't even know how draft order is going to be determined anyway.
Absolutely. I'd rather pick around 11th and have guys like Mountcastle and Kremer look like they're a strong part of the next competitive club than pick 1st and have everyone we brought up look totally lost

Flexors often lead to Tommy John. Not good news
-
Is it worth hanging onto Davis for the entire offseason and seeing if COVID shortens next year's season to try and save more money on the contract? Just a thought. We can always cut him if it ends up being a full 162 game season
-
Purely eyeballs here, but Severino's defense has seemed worse than Sisco's this year

Don't forget the draft pick we got for letting Cruz walk was Ryan Mountcastle

Anybody notice Tommy Milone of all people is on that list?

I have mixed feelings about Hyde as a strategist, but no reservations whatsoever regarding the tone he sets for the team. He was an excellent choice and I hope he’s still here when the team turns the corner.
Maybe it's just easier to manage your lineup/bullpen with expanded rosters, but the other day I realized Hyde has made very few hard-to-justify decisions with regards to such. Makes me think he might actually be a pretty good field marshal after all
-
I guess he finally heard all the smack talk about the zero hits and decided to do something about it. Go DJ!

Was that ever confirmed to be Matusz? I always figured it was Jake.
I thought it was. Could be wrong though
-
*tongue in cheek* So that's what Matusz meant when he said Palmer's numbers "Weren't that good"
-
Why does Pedro Martinez miss the list? I always hear his name brought up in best pitcher ever conversations. What he did at the height of the steroid era was unreal
-
Yeah, if it's PTBNL or cash, I doubt the PTBNL would be anything to get excited about
-
Yeah, I wouldn't trade people just to trade them. If someone will eat a considerable amount of Cobb's salary, I think you have to move him. If someone will offer a prospect we like a great deal for one of our guys who won't be part of the next big team, I think you move them. Otherwise, let the chips fall where they may

Even if they aren't HOF'ers that's good company for sure

Milone sure has settled in nicely after that awful second inning

Givens leaves muttering to himself.
I'd be a little peeved if they pulled me against Jackie Bradley Jr. after I'd been lights out
-
I'd say Mullins got screwed there, but two pitches ago should have been strike three
-
Didn't get a complete look, but it looked like he slowed up around first then turned on the gas
-
That was an incredible piece of hitting by Mountcastle

Brocail, Flores let go
in Orioles Talk
Posted
I thought he hired Brocail pretty late in the offseason when no one else was available. I always got the impression Elias thought Brocail was the best he could do on short notice. I'm kind of surprised he lasted more than a year to begin with, but maybe someone Elias really wanted became available, or like was said earlier in the thread with minor league contraction there will be a ton of candidates
