Schoop vs LHP this season: .172/.273/.172

Demon vs LHP in his career: .302/.339/.470

Wonder if Buck knows something we don't.

Who else can fill in at 2B with Ryan playing 3B? I'd say it is out of necessity versus preference

Bench is Lough Pearce Young Clevenger- none of whom can play 2B unless I am missing somebody

I just wanted to throw out a short whatsup to the OH. I've been in Germany since Sunday on business and I have had little to no time to follow the O's other than the box scores...which have been frustrating. I come over here 1 week every year and it is never good...last year it was the JJ meltdown week. Anyway, I miss checking in and - BEAT THE TRIBE!! gotta go 'cause it's 1am now. :P

Tonight and tomorrow Davis is the back up at 3B if Flaherty or Schoop go down. Flaherty moves to 2b is Schoop goes down. Pearce backs up 1B. Hope none of that happens.

    • Baumann has to be the one to go. I’m sure he’s a swell guy and all but he is not a major league pitcher. 
    • Once upon a time, Suarez was rated the 9th best prospect in the Appy League and as high as the 12th best prospect in the Rays system. He also did get parts of two seasons in the majors with the Giants. I know he's been bouncing around Japan and Korea for the past few years, but he wasn't completely off the radar earlier in his career. Pitchers have weird trajectories sometimes.
    • I'm not a doctor, so if the O's are confident he is up to going back into the rotation as a full time starter, I suppose I will trust it. However, it makes sense to me to be conservative and manage his innings so he is in peak form in Sept/Oct. Of course, that takes for granted that we can get to the playoffs with him in a lesser role which may not be the case, but my inclination would be to stretch him out later rather than sooner.
    • All of that is fair to point out, some of which I did. My only issue with the snarkiness of the original comment like there was an over reaction going on by pointing out he's off to a disappointing start.  At the end of the day, Basallo is uber talented and he will figure it out. 
    • Yeah Tate could be optioned. He hasn’t been impressive. But I don’t think we have to try too hard to protect Mike Baumann either. He really hasn’t shown anything in his 4 years in the MLB that warrants protection. I have a hard time seeing his survival if/when Wells, Perez, Bradish, Means return. 
    • The occasional clunker is inevitable, hopefully he gets them all out of the way before October.
    • I like Vazquez a little bit. I don't know how much he will hit at the upper levels, but he controls the strike zone, can run a bit, and is a good defender. He's got a utility player ceiling but for a 30K 20th round pick, he looks like a very nice org guy at the very least.
