???. Cowser took more swings against LF than any other LH hitter on the team ( not named Henderson). He was one of the guys they did not platoon. -
I think Kevin Seiyltzer was the fall guy for a team that thought they were a championship team. This guy has overseen more a decade of hitting in Atlanta, has been through developing and helping young batters succeed when the league adjusts. Most importantly, he has a ring! -

I honestly think there is very little difference in most the teams that made the playoffs. The most wins was 98 wins and there was 12 teams with 86 wins or more. It also seems that many of the teams are on the same page with scouting and analytics now hitting wise. Years back you had moneyball which the A’s used before anyone else. Then the Astros and few teams started with analytics and seemed to be ahead of the rest of the league but they have caught up now imo. Now the move seems to be on launch angle and hitting homers by getting the ball in the air but that seems to be across the league. Obviously some teams have more money and more talented players but the strategy seems about the same. The main differences I see is in pitching in the playoffs which is bullpen games and using openers rather then a starter to go 7 innings and carry your team to win now a slight sign of trouble they are taking them out. With all these short inning guys and pitching them in certain pockets we are seeing very little offense and the hitting with runners in scoring position has been awful. It all comes down to RISP at bats and getting 1 or 2 big base hits in those situations. We just haven’t been able to get those hits so far in short series. -

And we've seen similar with Kjerstad. Kjerstad might be the best pure hitting prospect in the Orioles system of recent years besides Gunnar. I want to see him playing everyday next year is possible none of this sitting him versus LHP more often than not. These prospects need to get their reps and stop treating them like John Lowenstein and Benny Ayala. -

I don’t see Elias trading off prospects anymore at least top guys. We have moved a few guys in last year and I expect they try to build that back up. They should have money to use if they want to add talent. -

Blah, well Rob Manfred has to be happy along with Fox network. A Yankees-Mets World Series match up is still on the table and the Dodgers as well if they win tomorrow. I knew the Royals would get jettisoned by the Yankees without too much of a fight.
