No one agrees with you on that particular play, because there was only maybe a 10-20% chance Davis would have scored if sent. If you continually keep taking gambles at stuff with that low of a success percentage, you will lose. A lot. Now please, kindly let it go.

10 to 20% is better the 0% chance we have had in 14 innings. It's about making your own luck. The fact you guys are willing to sit and wait for an offense who relies on HRs to score some runs.. I'll say take a chance.. cause we have nothing to lose yet.

Remind me to play poker with you sometime. ;)

There's a much better chance that the next batter gets a hit. Stop being so thick headed.

      Its always easier in hindsight, but letting Kyle Gibson go, could end up being a glaring error.

      Could be a trade target.

      Cool that he wanted to come back. Would the O's have paid that much for a long man and would Elias even want a long man?

      The O’s were never going to trade for a stud like Burnes and resign Gibson.  They went for an upgrade and got one.

      I know for a fact he wanted to stay...12-13 million would have been a good 1. year protection plan..He was really respected and loved by his teammates...

      AAA Catcher Comps - Hunt vs. Handley

      By CHIP · Posted

      Handley has been on IL since 6/8/24.  As of this morning, no idea if he will be returning to action after 1 week or if it is going to be time.  Only time will tell...  But the O's decided to give Banuelos a break from the taxi squad yesterday.  Am I reading into something?  Sure, but isn't that what we do here? However...  this week off of Handley vs. Hunt has given my son and I some more time to look at Hunt's 2024 history.  (I still think this is a SSS (small sample size) but since some on this board rejoice over 1 week of good performance  I'm going the other direction... bad performance.) As a precursor, I'm starting to think the O's fans need to brace for "something is better than nothing" when it comes to Hunt.  But what exactly is the "something" as it comes to Hunt for Baumann/Perez trade.  I believe it is also looking that we got "April Fooled" even acknowledging the SSS. Hunt's April stats with Tacoma (SEA): 12 games, 42 PA, 37 AB, 14 H, 2-2B, 1-3B, 2-HR, 2 HBP, 3 BB and only 4 K.   .378/.452/.649 for a 1.101 OPS   These stats would have OH screaming for Hunt over McCann.  This seems to have been the opinion when the trade first happened with Mariner fans as they were wanting hunt moved up to SEA. Since then...  well...  April shower's bring May flowers and maybe we got a carnation. 11 more games with Tacoma before the trade.  38 PA, 33 AB, 7H, 2-2B, 2 HR, 2 HBP, 2 BB, 4K.     .212/.308/.455 for a 0.763 now... the O's would have seen this as well... but the average over his 24 games before coming to the Tide wasn't bad.  .293/.372/.533 with .905 OPS.  This was still attention getting for sure.  But would the O's and OH posters have liked this trade based on just his May numbers? So... let's break down the 24 games with Tacoma vs. 12 games with Norfolk using some of Fangraphs stats/metrics: The 'highlight' and literally this is the ONLY highlight I can find.  (There is a 'candle' light as well) HIGHLIGHT:  In 12 games with Tides, Hunt has 3 HR (1:16 PA).  He only had 4 with Tacoma in 24 games (1:19 PA) CANDLELIGHT:  3 of 15 runners caught (20% for Norfolk) vs. 2 of 18 runners caught (11.1% for Tacoma).  But hey, this is an 80% increase! Here are some of the shadow numbers that 'fans' really don't want to look at because it flies into the face of 'HOPE'  Hunt's AAA wRC+ while with SEA in 2024 was 121.  Hunt's AAAA wRC+ while with BAL is.... 46.    Ooooffff. Hunt's BB & K rate while with SEA were 7.0% and 11.6%.  Hunt's BB/K rate with BAL are 0.0% and 36.7%.  Based on his walk rate... reminds me of a MLB O'S catcher.    Is the IL pitching that much better than the PCL?  Is Hunt trying to hard because of the H vs. H competition?  Hunt's SwStr% has gone from 7.7% to 16.1% between teams. Maybe this is a look into what other GM's saw and why Hunt is on/in his 4th MLB organization and still in MiLB. Last little nugget... like my dog kicking the grass after a piss... Since going to Tacoma from the Trade, Michael Perez has done almost the opposite!  His SwStr% has gone from 11.8% to 6.9%.  wRC+ had gone from 58 to 96.  His walk rate has tripled (5.7 to 17.9). His K rate has nearly halved (31 to 17.9). So... we aren't half way thru the AAA season and there is more time to compare our catchers coming up.  When and how Handley comes back from his IL stint is going to be interesting.

      What does the Bradish injury really mean?

      By spleen1015 · Posted

      If Bradish is out for TJ, then I'd trade anyone for the right SP with 2+ years of control. We're going to need to replace Bradish for the rest of this year and some of next. Chances are pretty high that Burnes hits FA. So, we need 2 TOR SP next year. I think a proven SP helps us more than waiting to see what type of MLBer any of the prospects will be.
