What's the deal with Wilson? Roch yesterday and today made it sound like there is a deadline on him being on the taxi squad. Today 8 pm I think. What's the rule?

I heard him say 24 hours on the radio, but I don't fully understand it.

A club can recall a player from a minor league Optional Assignment and place the player on its "Taxi Squad" for one day. If the player is not added to his club's MLB Active List by 3 PM (Eastern) the next day or at least three hours prior to the scheduled start of the next day's game (whichever is later), the player must be removed from the Taxi Squad and returned to his minor league assignment. A player on the Taxi Squad does not count against his club's MLB Active List, and the player does not accrue MLB Service Time while on the Taxi Squad. The most common reason to recall a player and place him on the Taxi Squad is when a club is considering whether to place a player on the Disabled List but has not yet decided.

Couldn't we just send down M.Wright. Have Tyler Wilson as a fresh arm. Then DL Norris or Tillman to bring Wright back before the usual 10 days it requires to leave someone down. One way to manipulate the roster.

It accomplishes the same thing if Wright just stays on the roster and they DL Norris. They shouldn't need a fresh arm yet with the way off today.

      Saturday, May 18: A Wet one vs The Seamen

      By Moose Milligan · Posted

      I didn't think that was a homer off the bat.  I thought he got under it a little and that since it was going out to the Wall, there wasn't much of a chance -if any- that it was going to get out of the park. That's one of the more impressive things you'll ever see.

      The Orioles have to face two opponents every night:  the other team and the home plate umpire.    Tonight Thornton was able to retire Jordan Westburg without ever throwing a strike, because he got strike one called on a pitch 6 inches off the outside corner, got strike two on a phantom foul tip and forced Westburg to chase strike three.  Mullins and Rutschman were also put in the hole by terrible strike one calls in the ninth.  We are systematically disadvantaged on ball/strike calls.  My theory is that the umpires have had it in for the Orioles ever since Roberto Alomar spit on John Hirshbeck and Peter Angelos refused to discipline Alomar.   Maybe my explanation is wrong, but the fact is that the Orioles have one of the highest number of expected runs taken away from them by missed balls and strikes.   The robot umps can't come soon enough.

      Another good outing from the kid.  He’s pitching remarkable considering the run scoring environment in AAA.

      Orioles Sign Daniel Johnson to mil contract (tea leaves?)

      By Aristotelian · Posted

      Had a great spring, now hitting .271/.920 at Norfolk. Could he possibly be worse than Mullins? How much longer can we afford to carry Mullins producing zero offense? Any reports on the defense? When he came up with Cleveland he did not play CF but they had Myles Straw there.

      Cosign. Mateo is the better offensive player right now and Mullins is unplayable outside his defense. Cowser needs to start more in CF he looked ok the other day. Stowers did make ok contact pinch hitting for Mateo, but I would have preferred to see him or Mountcastle for Mullins to start the inning.
