    This lineup wasn't by design. Bench is likely very thin today outside of Holliday. This team is very susceptible against southpaws and Elias needs to change that for next season.

     

    It’s going to be susceptible against lefties for the foreseeable future. Like 10 years future.

    I am glad that you think this win was big. It was. This is what we are capable of and yes, it will be a roller coaster ride along the way. So buckle in Baltimore and keep your damn arms inside the vehicle at all times cause this is going to be bumpy as hell. And if you learn to expect it, you might just have a little fun along the way. After all, you guys do enjoy watching this team play right? Right?

    No lol. This team is far from enjoyable to watch.

    What about Witt + Henderson?

    Not sure what you’re asking me. That was one of the 2 options I said. An option that is far superior to Adley and Gunnar

    Maybe we should have an Adley Rutschman + Gunnar Henderson vs. Bobby Witt Jr. + Brady McConnell thread.

    Nope. Just a Gunnar + Witt vs Adley and Gunnar debate.

    Well, he's not having a great season.

    The book hasn't been written on these two yet...they still have a long way to go in their careers.  And Adley means a lot to this team, there's no doubt about that.  Leadership, intangibles, all those pesky things that aren't measured in WAR...they mean a lot and I do believe he has a lot of those things.

    But no one can tell me that the choice, as it stands right now, is obvious.  What worries me about Adley is the back issue that he's been having lately, hopefully that's nothing long term.  

    Witt is the dude.  I do believe there's a chance that Adley is Wieters 2.0, a very good catcher but not the "Joe Mauer with power" that we thought we were getting both times now.

    But like I said, the book hasn't been written.  At the present, Witt looks like a generational, transformative player.  Adley just looks like a solid catcher that might be already experiencing a decline.

    Couldn’t agree more.

  6. It’s not even close who the better player is. Witt is going to be getting MVP votes for 10 years and Rutschman is Weiters 2.0. Adley has been a huge disappointment in my eyes. He was supposed to be the guy. Hes far From that.

    Go out and find a LF or CF in FA or trade. LF has to cover ton of ground. 

    No problem. I’d rather put Austin slater out there than watch Mullins anymore. I know he’s everybody favorite Oriole but he is one of the worst hitters in the mlb.

    Been there for at least 6 weeks, maybe longer 

    Oh ya me too but I’d say 80% of the board hasn’t realized we have a ticket on Titanic yet
