He's gonna challenge but I don't think it's definitive enough to overturn it.

One of the MASN views showed the throw pulled the first baseman vertically off the bag and then landed on it simultaneously with the runner's step. It was an exact tie.

    • Good question. I did a very fast search — last news is the DFA, but nothing on whether he accepted it or is now a FA. 
    • I expect to win against the Orioles to win against any and all opponents. We have the better team against anyone and our rotation is not chopped liver. Reds have some good young starting pitching no doubt. But their lineup leaves a lot to be desired.
    • Yeah, not my favorite lineup as Santander is too high based on his performance at this time. don't like McKenna starting, especially at the same time as Urias in also in the lineup.  Just too many holes in this lineup that way, not that Mullins has been tearing it up, but I trust him more than McKenna for sure, even with a lefty out there.   But like last time when I said such a thing, watch us score 8-9 runs.  🙂   
    • Mullins has been struggling and there is a lefty on the mound today.
    • Oh sure, I'm very confident in Elias picking this low as I feel they do a good job of identifying what they like,  and it doesn't have to be just the top guys.  I won't be surprised at all if whomever they take ends up being better than expected for the slot they are picked in the end.   But it's just harder for me to keep up as the guy they draft is very unlikely to be someone I know much about.   When we are picking top 2-5 you really only needed to study 4 to 7 guys or so to be fairly certain you knew about who our guy would be.   Now there are probably 30ish guys who COULD go at number 22.  The top 10 will likely be gone and the guys after #40 or so won't be likely, but anyone in the 11 to 40ish range could be the pick of some fall or rise on our boards.  I'll be watching it closely on draft day,  but until then it's just too speculative to really dive into IMO. I do wonder how much harder it is to prepare for this kind of a draft as an organization.   When you are picking top 5, you can really narrow the focus down on 7-8 guys and really dive in deep to decide your board and who you take if available.  With being in the low 20s, you need to research many,  many more guys but probably not in nearly the depth you did while picking higher.
