I know it wasn't with Anderson, but wasn't Matusz supposed to have been working out last offseason?

Is there something an outfielder is going to teach a pitcher about being in good shape for pitching?

He and Chris surfed and went to Athletes Performance down near San Diego. Not AZ.

I get the feeling that if a player is working out with Brady he is going to have to do the work. Sometimes players can be in these athletic program and not put the much into it. That will not happen with Brady I bet.

IF a guy were to goof off while working with Brady, the Orioles would not keep that dude.

I suggested on the other Orioles board that Matusz works out with Brady this off season. I expect Matusz to rebound next year if he takes this training seriously. Nick Markakis is another player that I think would greatly benefit from working out with him. Markakis seems to have gotten kind of scrawny and his power numbers have dipped. I think if Brady helped him beef up, he could have 30 home run power.

Nick Hunts, grows a grisley beard, relaxes, is a family man, and attends Foundation events.

    • 1:2 is good.  Elite is a player like Arraez who is 1+:1.

    • Was reading Wiggins write up on ESPN. He appears to be more of a home run threat than Koolaid. He had a pick 6 each of the last 2 years.  
    • Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.
    • Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?
    • I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.
    • This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.
