Wynns hit a walk off home run for the Cincinnati Reds AAA team.

A bit of a forgotten pitcher in Bowie this season, we weren't even sure where he would start the year. The last few seasons, he worked as a starter or piggybacked with starters, making it up to AAA last season for 1 game, which didn't go the way he hoped to end the season.
This year, the 26 year old, 858th overall pick in the 2019 draft has worked out of the bullpen.
This season, he has appeared in 10 games, totaling 13.2 innings and getting 20 strike outs.
He has a 3.95 ERA thanks to a disaster game on May 5th, where he allowed 5 runs. He also allowed a run on April 10th in his second appearance of the season. Aside from those two games, he hasn't allowed a run in the other 8 games.
The big thing that impacted him the last few seasons were walks, which is still has some trouble with. 6 total so far, which would be fine if he started 10 games. But 6 walks in 10 games isn't ideal and is a big reason for his 1.24 WHIP.
If he can lower the walks while keeping the strike outs and the runs sparse, I would like to see him get to Norfolk in June and see how he handles the bullpen there. With the glut of position players and seemingly lack of minor league pitching help for the bullpen, I want to see some aggressiveness on moving some older bullpen players seeing if they can sink or swim.

Is he in their starting rotation?
No, he's in their Rookie League right now.

He was specifically referring to the Gary Sanchez homer on Friday night. He noticed that Sanchez was late on a fastball on the previous pitch, but then on the next pitch (high fastball) hit it as if he knew what was coming. I don't know if there's any merit to his statement, but it was interesting that he said that.
Sanchez has always sold out to the fastball and has the ability to crush it. He was late, then sat fastball and sped the bat up.
It was an 0-1 count and he was late on a fastball. Pretty good guess that he would get another fastball.

Houston Roth had an interesting night in Bowie.
Came in to clean up a mess with the bases loaded and allowed a grand slam, then struck out all 5 hitters he faced after that.

@Frobby, that list tells me that being in Norfolk is the last stop of a catchers career 90% of the time...

"Skip, I've already thrown 130 pitches and this is my first start since Tommy John. And we're already up 18 runs. Are you sure I should go back out there for the 8th?"
"Dang it Brnovich we need this win. The people of Bowie need this win. You go out there and shove until I tell you to stop."
Skip: Brnovich, do you know how much Tommy John costs? We need to get the most out of that ligament!

Just came here to post the same thing. How funny is that?
11 minutes ago, RZNJ said:Ha. I saw that. Guessing he went 4 or 5, someone else relieved, and they combined the stats of the two without ever listing the 2nd pitcher.
Per the Baysox recap:
Starting right-hander Kyle Brnovich went 4.2 innings of one-run ball with no walks and five strikeouts. The right-hander settled in after allowing a first inning homer and threw 3.2 consecutive shutout innings.
Out of the bullpen, Kyle Virbitsky (1-0) threw 1.1 scoreless innings with two strikeouts in his Double-A debut. Left-hander Trey McGough punched out three in two perfect innings of relief and Houston Roth pitched a 1-2-3 ninth to clinch Bowie’s first win of 2024.

Doing their best Norfolk impression tonight!
Man that sounds so familiar...

McKenna says "remember me?" and hits an opposite field shot.

They are doing their best "Norfolk Tides" impression tonight, up 15-1 in the 4th. Collin Burns is currently a double away from the cycle and has 6 rbi's so far.

Haskin is in the Aberdeen lineup today.
That'll be interesting when he is finished his rehab assignment and comes back to Norfolk.

Good rostering by Elias. The 40 man is only at 37. We’re in great shape. Gotta love the depth.
Per MLB.com, it looks like 38.

Vavra is still rehabbing a shoulder injury. Not sure about Haskin. I didn’t see either one of them at any point in the 12 days I spent in Sarasota.

Anyone know when the rest of the break camp rosters come out?
Games don't start until next Friday for AA and lower, so I'd expect Wednesday, though there will be some announcements for individual players.
