The moves today should help the O's win

[CA-ORIOLE]

Then who is the backup CF?

Alvarez and Cabrera.

Just a got thing based on Roy's comments.

Yeah, if they clear out David Lough to make room for a guy who won't be as good defensively, can't play center, and his upside with the bat basically is David Lough.... I might cry.

Not to mention I DO NOT want to watch a guy hit who has a 2 percent walk rate in AAA. We have that guy already.

Would it make your eyes bleed?

That is over a month away. Reimold could be on the DL twice before that happens.

Unlike Hardy, Wieters, Schoop, Jones, and Flaherty Reimold hasn't been hurt this year.

My guess on the surprise move of the day is that Frobby works out on his elliptical during the game.

He's due.

Alvarez and Cabrera.

I thought Alvarez was a COF, thanks.

Cabrera is not a backup CF, according to Paul.

Hard to imagine he wouldn't have greater offensive upside than Lough at this point and that he could not potentially be as good or better in RF (based on what I've heard). Then again, I have not seen Alvarez play, only seen stats and heard things at this point.

[Can_of_corn]

He's due.

I think he is due for an extended streak of health.

Hope you are right.

He is. Either is cabable of backing up CF in the short term imo. If Jones is healthy, it's not much of an issue.

I went to a 2 games in Norfolk during their previous home stand (Memorial Day weekend) and Alverez was playing CF. I thought it was odd at first, but it's making more sense now.

But Cabrera is hitting less than Lough is, and the reason to keep him over Lough is???????

Unlike Lough, Cabrera can play both middle infield positions.

I think it's just a matter of time before both are gone, but wanted to answer your question.

Play so well, you have to defense sub him, late in the close game.

Sorry, but Cabrera hasn't shown me much. Again, IMO.

You could be right, maybe a matter of time, we shall see.

I know Buck likes Lough, they rush him back from the DL, instead of rehabbing.
