His .370 SLG is the problem. You can deal with the K's and the low average when he has power, but his lack of power makes him just about worthless. Time to cut bait. I've been patient, but he's done. I'm not a bhuge fan of Joe Mahoney, but I'd rather see him then watch the powerless K-man bat anymore.

Cut him. Disappointing on the defensive side and the offensive side. No Power and too many Ks. The split of OBP and avg. is not enough to make up for his lack of power. Only a little time left in the season. Cut him.

Yup. Him and Betemit would make a killer platoon. Too bad we really don't have anybody that can be an everyday 3B.

Just reading that we have to decide between Betemit and Reynolds made me throw up a bit of my Odells IPA in my mouth.

I completely understand the frustration.... I am there... But at this point, we need to have some things go our way to make playoffs. We have to keep this dude taking his rediculous swings and hope he gets hot. What's our option? I will laugh about this guy in a few years when we are actually competitive, but right now we are so desperate for runs that we actually need this guy!! Sometimes I feel like he is our only chance to score runs..

    • I was wondering if anyone was at the game on Saturday and if anyone got the Ryan Mountcastle bobblehead or anyone you know did?  I have noticed something and just want to see if it is a strange trend happening this year or an anomaly.  Thanks for anyone who replies.

    • What would be ideal is for the #1-#2 punch at the top of the rotation to be a combo of RHP and LHP.  It seems that the teams who are most successful have those guys to lead their rotation. And I agree with your statement about John Means. If Grayson Rodriguez were to provide us with any indicator, then John Means will not be the same guy that he was before his injury.  (Neither is Grayson compared to himself prior to injury.)
    • The most intriguing mystery about this series is who will pitch on Wednesday? Could be Irvin, Could be Voth. Could be DL Hall? Maybe Drew Rom makes his Major League debut? Hmm...
    • I blame the Montreal Expos for that. They poached our territory. And all the front office executives from 2001-2011 are also partially to blame for failing to compete with Washington for fans. (And as a side note, I really hope we are valuing our fans from North Carolina who have supported the Orioles for generations.)
    • Interesting little piece of trivia. At this same point (of service time on the calendar) through both their careers, Cal (Ripken Jr) had played in fewer games and had fewer plate appearances. Gunnar Henderson has a better wOBA and a better wRC+ through the same amount of plate appearances up to this point of Gunnar's career. (I'll make a topic about it tomorrow).
    • The story of the Guardians year has been the inability to put runs on the board, but they still lead MLB in fewest Strikeouts, and Fangraphs still pegs BAL the very worst team at defense YTD. They won the rubber game today of their Cardinals series, so are coming in on a little bit of a good note.     The Twins haven't played very well, leaving almost everyone a good week away from the division lead. K-BB standing among Active Roster AL SP (18) Wells v. (30) Allen (54) Gibson v. (61) Quantrill Voth/Irvin v. (49) Bieber 2 of 3 day games in a weekday series with the holiday, and a getaway day out to San Francisco and Alex Cobb for us.     Cleanup hitter Josh Naylor sat out today after fouling a ball off his foot, but X-rays okay and chances are he'll be back for this series.     With the 2.5 day break from WED afternoon to FRI night late, Hyde should have a lot of options for the finale if Wells/Gibson hold serve.
