  1. Diplan, Knight, Wade, and Jannis are all options.
  2. 40 man spot aside, I do wonder if this clears a path for Adley to Norfolk. They have already traded Taylor Davis and now got rid of Sisco.
  3. Matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match…
  4. I can’t speak for Bowie personally, but I do have direct knowledge of Delmarva and the Myrtle Beach situations with those teams informing players the day of, or just before a road trio, that they aren’t providing housing anymore, along with rumblings from other organizations. However, what is interesting to me is Bowie backtracking a bit. Teams weren’t allowing Host Families this year but suddenly they are allowed after they get called out. All levels had Host Families as options, but usually the guys in AAA and some of AA didn’t use them. I don’t know if they still do it this season, but Bowie had a very amazing group of supporters who would do stuff like making care packages for players for road trips (toiletry items, blankets, pillows, snacks, ect) and do things when they were home, including a giant pot luck dinner every Sunday at the stadium.
  5. Holy crap, there is video evidence of Sevie actually running! Valaika looked like he was close enough to tag him on the sprint to second.
  6. Severino really has no clue how to do anything. No play at the plate = COVER THIRD SO THEY CAN’T ADVANCE IN A RUN DOWN LIKE THAT! That’s the second time this season he has failed to cover a base. He can’t do any of the 3 things in “fundamental.” ”Fun” - He is not fun to watch ”Da” - He is not a defensive asset ”Mental” - He needs to pull his head out of his
  7. I wouldn’t mind seeing what he can do I’ve never been a big fan of his, as he seemed/seems over rated to me. I wish they had kept Martin Cervenka. Bring him up, send Severino to a team for a case of Bullfrog sunscreen and call it a day.
  8. I posted a thread about 2 weeks ago about this same issue in Delmarva, along with the issue that Myrtle Beach had. I think players are more willing to step up now and say something.
  9. I’d see what McCoy can do too. Especially since Bannon has the oblique issue.
  10. @Tony-OH Well, guess they don’t need JC Encarnacion…
  11. Well, there have been a few games he covered all 3 positions...
  12. I really want to update this soon. I held off due to the promotions, but now most players have been there atleast 2 weeks.
  13. I went back and watched some video of Means in Bowie vs his no hitter this year (again, screw you Severino...) It could just be the camera angle for the minors, but his arm slot has changed. When he was with Bowie and Frederick, he released the ball from a slightly above 90 degree arm slot. With Baltimore against Seattle, his arm slot was more “vertical.” He still had some elbow bend, but not nearly as much. He also seems to put more emphasis into the pitch while having a more pronounced follow thru towards 3rd. Before, he would just kind of “finish” in that direction where now, he spins that way more aggressively. Throwing from a more “vertical” axis could explain his curveball being more developed, due to the angle.
  14. I was happy he got it. I was happier that he somehow helped guide Lopez to only 3 runs despite having a lot of trouble finding the plate.
  15. One thing to keep an eye on is how he does the next 2 months and how the Orioles organization uses him. He has played in every game so far. If that keeps up, let’s see if they move him out of catcher more (more DH or 1st baseman use) or if they start giving him some days off and keep him behind the plate as much or more.
  16. https://www.mlb.com/news/triple-a-pitcher-hit-in-head-with-line-drive-hospitalized Positive news in there. He could be moved from Intensive Care soon and was walking with some assistance.
  17. I’ll keep digging, but I’ve found this so far... I will let you know if I can find a cleaner version.
  18. Are you looking for the game or just the celebration?
