You're 100% correct. Mostly it's about trying to get attention, especially the folks on Orioles Twitter. -

Bumbry had wild swings in BABIP throughout his career. .375 in '73, then .274 in '74. .372 in '77 then .258 in '78. One of those guys who was really good if he hit about .300, but not so much if he hit .237. Would be fun to see modern Statcast data for historical seasons to try to figure out what was going on there. Injuries? Bad luck? Just slumping? -
De Leon had an excellent outing last night: 5.2 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 8 K’s. He got through 5.2 innings in 65 pitches, 43 strikes. The unearned run came when two batters reached on consecutive errors (one by De Leon) in the 6th inning, so really he could have gotten through 6 IP in less than 65 pitches but for some poor defense in his final inning of work. In 16.1 innings, he’s posted a 1.65 ERA, 0.86 WHIP, 12.7 K/9, 2.8 K/BB. That’s a very solid April for De Leon, who was promoted to Delmarva in mid-July last year and threw 26.1 innings to a 2.39 ERA then. Looks like he’ll be a strong candidate to move up to Aberdeen soon. The O’s probably would like to see some more outings of 5+ innings before making that move. -
No kidding. People need to stop, take a deep breath, and remember we play 162 games.

Good stuff on the farm yesterday! Creed's HR was a laser! Of course Bradish and Bright! Looked like Acevedo would have been out at 3B with a more accurate throw. Silas might have a ML future! -

My original goal was to see if anyone had more value than Gunner in his first 208 games as an Oriole at the start of his career. But the span finder in Stathead doesn't do WAR. Rettenmund hit better, but was worth 6.1 rWAR in his first 232 games. Blefary was an okay LFer, so no. Sheets was a essentially a DH. Rutschman may have done it. His pace has been 7.7 rWAR per 208. Cal was sort of close, but hurt by that start. Through 182 games he was sitting on 4.2. Eddie was held back by being a DH a lot in his first year or two. So I'm pretty confident that the two most valuable Orioles through their first ~1.5 seasons are Henderson and Rutschman.
