Coloumbe's avg fastball velocity this year is 90.8 mph. Last year it was 91.4. You can figure that Povich will tick up in relief and likely throw harder than Danny. The highest avg. velocity in 2023 for Vespi on any pitch was 90 mph on his fastball. My only point in citing the prospect rankings and the front office is that they are both likely more adept at judging prospects than either of us are. -

It was a great series, not just because the O's won 3. Regardless of how I feel about the Yankees, they're going to be around all season. This was basically close like you would expect a playoff series to be. Judge averages 100 games a year. Stanton appears to be toast. Soto is one of the best hitters in the MLB. There were some absences from the lineup that'll be back and could change their offense. Baseball is changing though and the Yankees team is the old way. -

So, O'Hearn is a great story, and I'm glad he's an Oriole, and I don't want to talk at all badly about him. But... the headline here is silly. And the article kind of glosses over a few things to make the headline look less silly if you don't peek behind the curtain. Yes, if you look at xwOBA O'Hearn has great numbers in a tiny sampling of 2024 data. But you have to consider that he's being platooned so strictly that I have to glance at the dugout to see if Earl's come back from the dead. He's 0-for-5 against lefties. Because of this he doesn't have 3.1 PA/G, so he really doesn't even qualify for the batting title or other rate-stat leader boards. Like, presumably, xwOBA. Most of the players he's being compared to in any xwOBA leaderboards have the disadvantage of facing at least a some same-sided pitchers. Example... he's tied in OPS+ with Colton Cowser. But Cowser has an OPS vs RHP 100 points higher than O'Hearn, dragged down overall by a more pedestrian showing in 28 PAs vs. lefties. I'm glad O'Hearn is currently 18th in the majors in OPS+, good for him and the O's. But it doesn't need to be faked into more than it is. -

This is all good to see. Cowser needs to get back on track in a big way. Gunnar starting to fade a little bit, too. Still, recognition is nice. -

One of my all time favorite players. Feel like his career could have been more if he wanted it more too. -

Nice, much deserved. Jones next year? When is he eligible?
