Yes. He's an international signee. Doubtful you see him in Bowie this year. Maybe not even Aberdeen for awhile.
My apologies, Aberdeen is higher now, keep
forgetting that.

Was he an international signing? Looks bound for Bowie if he continues this pace.

I've been quietly waiting to see him return to action. So of course he immediately gets drilled in the knee.
Nevertheless I agree. Lefty 2B who I hope challenges Odor.
Challenges Odor lol He shouldn’t be on the team!
Urias at 2nd, Mateo at SS and Gutierrez at 3b

Particularly with Buck’s penchant for veterans, he must really really be done
Exactly. Man, I miss Buck. Just not his Davis & Ubaldo love.

Lol..I don’t think they are being overrated but I also agree with CoC. Everyone wants to act like a top farm system means we are winning long term. Ask the Phillies about that.
There is a lot to be hopeful about and I have been one of the few on here who wants them to spend now and look to win now and long term because I do believe in the talent.
But the constant worrying about farm system rankings has reached a very high annoyance level. It means nothing other than we have talent and some of that talent is either trying to stay healthy or just perform at a rate worthy of a promotion.

I do think 5/16 is probably Rutschman Day. Hope so, anyway. I doubt I’d go up for that — unless Rodriguez or Hall is throwing to him.
That would be a battery that might get people to the park though…

For the record I'm not sold on the source of the rumor. I hope it isn't true.

Then we can have Cano and Odor on the team.
Elias is frustrating. Odor & Owings shouldn’t be on the team. At least maybe Cano gets hit and might get you a low level prospect but why? What’s the point. I miss Dan Duquette, never thought I’d say that, but he found some good players via many different avenues.

Johnny Cueto has a 6.00 ERA at AAA. Archer's been all right, but he has a 5.77 FIP and is averaging four innings a start.
Hindsight. But both were worthwhile low risk gambles. Many more like this that would va e helped move us forward, albeit incrementally.

What would Archer, Greinke done besides cost us millions of dollars more this season. This team doesn’t care about record they just want to see improvements from the core guys that are the future which for most part we are seeing. The offense is being led by Hays, Mullins, Mountcastle, Mateo, Santander, and Mancini. Those are all important guys for our future either as a player down the road or a guy we can move sometime in the next 18 months. If we were 16-12 and were being carried by guys like Odor, Chirinos, Gutierrez and whoever else has no future here or trade value, meanwhile the guys we hope our the future struggle we would be in a worse position then we are now at 11-17. Right now we are winning games because of a strong young core however we still have some major holes with guys that won’t be here next season and why our record isn’t better because you have those automatic outs in a lineup.
Becausing winning & trying are important in sports. Fans feel disrespected. He gave Lyles 7 million! To eat innings! Archer & similar much less. Cueto signed a mil deal. Both would have helped mentor our staff instead of a guy sharing pain killers. If money is so important, why is Odor here? He stinks and will never have trade value. I’d rather Have a solid defensive infield with Gutierrez, Mateo & Urias. Odor has how many errors? He does t even play every day! The decisions being made make little sense. As we witnessed from Bucks, setting a winning culture is important, that’s why.

Get this guy off the team!!!
Astute signing Elias, take your boy Owings with him.

Odor doing his best to make sure we don’t turn the corner. Astute signing Elias. Great job with Owings too. We could have signed Chris Archer? Zach Greinke. Anyone with some value.
-
Odor shouldn’t be here.
Nobody defends Owings, useless.
Laskins? Sure gets lots of chances…
Elias’ roster management is his awful. Maybe he should have actually signed some meaningful players (not necessarily top tier, say Chris Archer?) in the off-season, just a thought.

Woohoo! Go Bowie! Great to see!

Keith Law today:
Andruw Jones’ son is the consensus No. 1 player in the draft class, rising to the top as much because of the high floor he offers for a high school player as his ceiling. He’s a plus defender in center now, with similar feel for the position to his father, gliding to catch fly balls thanks to strong reads off the bat. He is a plus runner with at least 60 raw power, with strength to drive the ball out to center, but his swing can get long and he can try too hard to get to that power on pitches he should just put into play. He does have a solid feel for the strike zone for his age, however, and doesn’t expand the zone on himself when he falls behind. He has All-Star upside and it’s easy to see how he could settle in as a soft regular even if we’re all too high on the hit tool.
Yep. So corner college OFer? Elias is on it!

Edit: Morgan McSweney finished the 7th (and almost gave up a double that missed by inches) in last at bat.

7 inning variety. 11th in club history (5th against Senators).
Garrett Stallings! Congrats!
-
Bowie did it! 11th no hitter! (5th against Senators)!
-
He is 3 outs away from a no-no in Bowie.

Next year and moving forward:
14 vs each opposing ALE team
6 vs each ALC or ALW team (3 home / 3 away)
4 (2 home / 2 away) vs Nats
3 vs every other NL team (home one year, away the next)
Thank you both. It makes sense that all teams play roughly the same schedule. I think Buck was in support of this. But this is def an improvement!

I was looking at our schedule too see when our first Blue Jays series would be, and noticed that our schedule with them is absolutely insane.
1. We don’t play them at all until games 63-66 on June 13-16.
2. Then we don’t play them again until game 11 on August 8.
3. We play them 15 times in our final 53 games.
This is the second year in a row of playing a ridiculously unbalanced schedule against the Blue Jays. Who the hell is making this schedule?
Wow. I know most baseball purists don’t like changes but I’d like to see a balanced schedule for both leagues. Pardon my ignorance, but what changes can we expect next year?

He cleared waivers. Surprised & disappointed for him actually, wanted to see him play more. Stewart cleared too. Top farm system in baseball, shocked more aren’t biting (at least with Stewart).
Tonight's victory. 3 vents.

Burns me up that Owings & Odor still on this team. I saw Gutierrez had 2 hits tonight. I wish the Os had played him more consistently. Gutierrez, Matteo & Urias best defensive infield. I am fine taking a hit on offense for a great fielding infield.
