Wow, that is a heck of a mustache on Mengden there.

So, a rental of Kazmir gets a 4th round and 6th round pick. If that's what we can expect for Chen, I would rather stay put and give him the QO.

Nice stache! What team hat is this? That's a bad ass logo!

Once they are in the system the picks are irrelevant. They got the 19th and 22nd prospects in perhaps the most loaded system in the league. These two would end up somewhere around 10-15 in the Orioles system.

That said, there is also some data on them and some understanding of the type of player they will be. There's a lot of value over a draft pick there.

Still, both guys are just A-level. Lots of bad things can happen to a player between A and MLB. I take the point, but I also think we should not be expecting MLB-ready talent like Tampa got in the Price deal, for example.

Again, stop looking at the preseason ranks. Various prospect guys have said Nottingham was well inside the Astros top 10. Kiley gave him a 50FV grade and said he'd be between 85-150 and Sickels ranked him #71. He'd likely be the #3 prospect in the Os system behind Bundy and harvey.

Good move, as usual, for the Cards. The guy they gave up was a 25-year old in AA, with not real impressive numbers.

Montero isn't involved in the deal.

      Jordan Westburg 2024

      By Flash- bd · Posted

      Yeah, basically this, that Westburg's underlying numbers (EV, barrel %, xwOBA) seem to point at this being pretty real, or at least that there's nothing 'undeserved / lucky' about this hot streak, if it's just that.

      Off-season Qualifying Offer Question

      By Billy F-Face3 · Posted

      The problem with a Cowser/Kjerstad/Stowers/Bradfield outfield roster is there are no right handers to handle LHP. I don't think and completely left handed outfield is the destination for an organization the values versatility.

      Looks maybe concussion related.

      How can you not be romantic about baseball? This seems slightly poetic. I enjoyed reading, and correlated your experience in the stands back to what I watch in Game 1 on MASN.  It was also pretty cool to hear Jim Palmer give you a shout out in Game 2 of the series on Live TV.

      Gunnar Henderson 2024

      By baltfan · Posted

      I am not worried.  It just doesn’t remotely meet the eye test.  He has been great in the field . I can think of at least 3 outstanding plays he has made and not any that I thought he should have gotten but didn’t. Meanwhile Holliday is 3 OAA and I can’t think of an outstanding play and can think of a number I thought he should have made.

      Nicely stated Roy. Every since I was 9 years old and saw the O's vs. the Tokyo Giants in Tokyo in 1971, I've been infected with the Orange/Black virus. There is no cure and I don't want one. You and I sat at the lunch table with Jim Palmer at the 1970 World Series Champs reunion, and its still one of my enduring baseball memories. You said I looked like Carlton Fisk! I was at all 3 games in this Angels series, right behind the O's dugout. I got to see all our boys, and just simply love to watch this team play. And in true baseball fashion, the one game on paper we should have dominated (GRod vs. 8+ ERA Channing), we end up down 7-0 and lose. But watching Gunnar's homers, his electric triple, and he made a fantastic play today on a ball that went under Westburg's glove, Adley do Adley things, Cowser, holy crap. Kimbrel v. Trout with bases loaded, bottom of 9th, 2 outs, down by 2? That was fun. Next game Trout bats leadoff and torches a GRod fastball for a homer to the opposite field.  An observation.... If you didn't know anything about the team, and you only watched game 1 batting practice, you'd think Cowser and O'Hearn were the studs of the team. Mountcastle was taking BP with the reserves and he put on a show as well.  Home after 3 straight days watching this O's team, so jealous of the Balt fans in Balt that get to see the team with regularity. It's a special bunch.
