BOWIE, Md.- Bowie Baysox OF DJ Stewart was named the Baltimore Orioles Organizational Player of the Month for August, as announced by the club’s Player Development Department on Monday morning. Aberdeen RHP Michael Baumann was named the Organizational Pitcher of the Month.

 

Stewart hit .340 with six home runs and 20 RBI over 27 games in the month and notched nine doubles to go along with 17 runs scored.

 

The Florida State product recorded the first multi-home run game of his professional career on August 22 vs. Reading. Earlier in the month, Stewart set a career-high with six RBI in a 13-7 win over Portland on August 5.

 

Stewart was originally selected by the Orioles in the first round (#25 overall) of the 2015 draft.

 

He is the fourth Baysox player to receive an Orioles monthly award this season after LHP John Means and LHP Tanner Scott were named the Organizational Pitcher of the Month in April and May, while OF Austin Hays received the Player of the Month honor in June.

    • For the immediate time going into 2024, we're going to need a really good left handed starting pitcher to have Soto take a seat every time he's up against the Orioles. The Yankees haven't had a lefty like him in a long time and we were able to manage Judge in several games because Hyder leveraged the matchups the best he could. We want Left on Left when pitching to Soto.
    • Also, seeing the Yankees trade away whatever farm system they have in order for Cashman to keep his job and idiot Yankee fans happy is *chefs kiss* 
    • I hope Soto fails miserably.    Soto might only be 25 still, but that body is filling out and not in a good way. IIRC, he brings practically no defensive value to the table and he’s still young.  He’s trending towards fat, he’s already slow. Just need to wait till he gets old and his hitting skills erode a little bit and he’ll be a liability that Yankees hopefully can’t get rid of after they’re stupid enough to extend him. Maybe like a Stanton 2.0. 
    • I tried to make it simple but I like this complex answer. Besides, it's on point to the OP question, which is not what you predict will happen, but what you'd like to see happen. 
    • Arizona makes sense to me. It has a large Latino population and the Diamondbacks are a very good young upcoming team with a real chance to win the World Series. Now they can compete with Texas for Montgomery, or throw the Orange & Black hat in the ring for Shota Imanaga. Or trade for Corbin Burnes and call it a day.
    • No way that doesn't work out for them,
    • I don't believe Elias has been running around Nashville over the last couple of days taking up other team's time about starting pitching only to suddenly decide to throw the entire budget at a guy who's going to pitch 70 innings at most.  $20 million AAV over multiple years could well be off the table at this point, but something like a Cease trade could very much still be possible IMO.
