We have seen this from Santander before. He is just getting warmed up. He doesn't have to play everyday but he should be in there most of the time. Cedric has a 791 OPS vs righties so far this season. I think Hyde will platoon him vs many lefties. -
I’m not necessarily against this, just because Kjerstad needs more opportunity to show what he can do. Not sure it’s an upgrade but I wouldn’t mind finding out. -

Let's pitch him against Vladimir Guerrero and see what happens! Orioles have had some good success with West Virginia University around round 11-12. -

Here's a good primer for you: https://fastercapital.com/content/Walks--Patience-Pays-Off--How-Walks-Impact-Batting-Average.html#:~:text=For the hitter%2C drawing walks,understanding of the pitcher's tendencies. "Walks are an essential part of any successful offense. They lead to higher OBP, more pitches per plate appearance, force the opposing team to throw more strikes, and are a sign of a disciplined approach at the plate. While they are not the only factor that contributes to a team's success, they are undoubtedly a crucial component. Teams that are patient at the plate and willing to take walks put themselves in a better position to score runs and win games." The challenge would be to define a metric for run scoring consistency. I'm not sure there is one as yet defined. The fact is that getting more guys on base while causing a pitcher to throw more pitches is beneficial to the hitting team. So conventional wisdom is more baserunners leads to more runs. More runs are better. -

I'm fine with giving Santander a few extra days off to get Kjerstad some playing time. We don't have great options to replace Mullins. Cowser isn't a great CF and McKenna, while white hot right now, doesn't have the track record. -

Actually I agree with it. As I said in my post I don't have an explanation aside from SSS. What I dislike is the superior tone when actually what I said is completely consistent with the view that there is a lot of random fluctuation in baseball. -

With current BA's hugging the Mendoza line, should Santander and Mullins be starting every night? Sure, Cedric is great defensively in CF and it's nice to have a switch hitter with pop, but neither is contributing much to the offense after one month. Should the youngsters be getting more time in the outfield?
