There are a ton of 40 man spots. You can take away far more than what you have to add.
Yes plenty of spots on the 40 man but what about the 26 man who comes off?
-
- So who comes off the 40 man for Stowers and whose place does he take on the Roster. I know Odor's stats aren't great but he has been great a club house guy and would like to see him finish the year out. Philips is more than likely here to stay so is it Mckenna or Nevin that get sent down? How will Stowers fit and get everyday at bats?
Where does Henderson and Westburg fit in this year? Would one of them replace Nevin on the roster? Would they be able to get enough playtime or is more valuable to keep them at Norfolk playing everyday?
-
He’s a left handed hitting McKenna and I’m sure they’ll plug and play them both. Diaz will go back down and get regular at bats.

Ieft handed bat defensive replacement who provides depth in case injury to prevent from having to start Stowers service clock this year.

Doesn't look like the same pitcher as what we were watching earlier in the season. Is he tipping his pitches? Is there something mechanically he's doing different? Any guesses on what issue is?
-
This must be the buying Elias was referring to when he said we'd be both buyers and sellers.
-
WTH??

Love Hall. His stuff is electric. I know everyone looks at him as a future starter, but I think he might end of being a future all star set up man or closer. He strikes me as having the kind of make up you want out of a guy in the pen late in games.
-
I'd be happy to see Mullins and Santander both get moved. Let's go!
-
Never heard of any of these guys. I do like adding 4 pitchers to the organization. Our weakest area of our farm system is pitching and this trades makes it a little better today. I’ll trust Elias and his staff.
-
My gut feeling is that we hold onto Santander and Stowers gets dealt in a pkg with either Lopez or Tate and a fringe prospect for a respectable Starting pitcher that can help the club this year.

How is Henderson’s defense at SS? Does he look like a natural there, does he make it look easy? Does he make the difficult plays with occasional spectacular or is he just consist make the routine plays type of defender?

Then what do you do with Urias, our current WAR leader? It's a great problem to have but it is a problem.
I'd move Urias as part of a package with a bullpen arm. Mateo's speed, defense and ability to still bases will come in handy off the bench in close games.
-
I would imagine with his athleticism, speed and arm he would play a pretty solid cf? Does anyone know if he's ever played there?
If the plan is to move Henderson to 3rd and Westberg to 2nd Mateo could then be the everyday ss at least until Holliday is closer, but if not it would be nice to have him as a utility guy. With his speed, defense and charisma he would be quite valuable.
-
Is Mateo more valuable to trade right now or hold onto?

If Ortiz is a HOF then so should Bonds and Clemens.
And Pete Rose.

How much if any will the new roy draft pic compensation impact Henderson being called up? What’s the date he could be called up this year and still be eligible for roy next year?
-
I like the draft and think they’ve got some solid value so far. Not one guy really stands out as over/under slot. Let’s see what day 3 brings. I could see Elias going over slot today on a young arm.
-
Should start to see a run on pitchers a lot of good value there.
-
The high school arm I’m most interested in is Ian Ritchie. Has good command of all 4 pitches fb sits in mid 90’s features plus slider and curve.

Ian Ritchie, RHP, Bainbridge High

Geeen would excite me the most just because of his size and athleticism. From all accounts he has the highest ceiling but I doubt he’s drafted 1:1. The strikeouts and swing and miss are quite alarming unless Elias feels confident we can correct those issues.
-
I like Johnson a lot. I love his make up and think that with the money we save we should be able to add some better talent later which giving us a better overall draft draft versus taking Jones and having to pay close to full slot,

Do you believe the O's will call up Henderson this season?

I think the experience of being on a team chasing a wild car spot even not getting everyday at bats is more valuable than everyday playing time in AAA so I voted yes!
