I'm going to get a Bannon jersey if/when he makes it, he's been a flag plant prospect for me for a while and the industry still isn't giving him much respect (Fangraphs had him as the least of all the 14 prospects the O's acquired at the deadline), so if he makes it, I'll feel a solid sense of pride wearing his jersey. 

His offensive numbers look great, not sure what all the hate about him is, unless there isn't a position for him (and that would make him a typical Orioles prospect through and through)

He's a good defender and should be an average or better at either 3B or 2B. The main question is the hit tool. Some doubt his power because he's small and he was in a hitter's league for A+ ball. He's hit 2 HRs in his first 8 AA games.

After the trades this week, I dropped the coin to purchase MiLB.tv.  I watched bits of the game tonight while at work, and saw some sweet defense from Bannon.  Opposing team's broadcasters seemed very impressed with his glove.

Last game I attended, pre-all star break, I got a souvenir cup with Manny and Schoop on it.   I’m sure the concessionaires had thousands of those on hand.   I wonder, did they stop selling those after the trades?

Sounds to me like Manny and Schoop will be present at next year's Fanfest after all.

Andrew Cashner. I love his excitement and love for the game of baseball. I would also buy a Blier jersey. I hope I am spelling that right. I hope he can rebound from his injury.

You could probably get a Blier jersey at a real discount!

    • At cost considerations there is 2 players i'd rather have listed in that article over Crochet, Helsley leading that. Also Mountcastle to the Reds for a SP makes a lot of sense also. 
    • Guilty. I'm working to be intentional to enjoy the day to day of a lot of exciting careers beginning, and not miss the moment as during say Peyton Manning's career in a different chapter of life when assured 14-2 or 13-3 seasons were four months of boredom while you waited to see what the playoff stumble would be this time.    SIGBOT's stuff works in the regular season same as Billy Beane's didn't in the playoffs. I don't follow Over/Unders, but would guess the 2025 Orioles are 1st or 2nd in the AL on early action.    My informal AL power rankings end of 2024: 1. A nonexistent Orioles team with a functional Adley Rutschman 2. Yankees with Soto 3. Tie between actual Orioles with broken Adley and end stage Astros that lost several series to hot Central teams 4. Yankees without Soto 5. Central I'm cheating Cleveland there for a joke, and hope they win, which they are plenty capable of doing.    It is an interesting matchup for the stuff the two teams are good at being very different.
    • I don't see the O's trading Mullins without getting a replacement for him from somewhere.  It's doubtful we have anyone in the minors yet ready to step in for him.  Maybe the same for Urias since he's the perfect backup infielder.  I think Mateo and Mountcastle are more likely to be traded.
    • I was clearly talking about the AL...
    • You mean like how the Os dealt guys like Hays, Stowers and Norby?  Yea, guys who are good depth but guys we can stand to trade are guys I want to trade….and obviously Elias feels similarly. These guys carry value. The level of value depends on the player and you can debate the value of return but yes, you absolutely should trade out of depth and trade guys that perhaps that don’t match your team philosophies.  That’s what teams do.
    • Who knows.  Lots of possibilities. There could be another trade like the Hays trade.  Or maybe you can get a ML ready arm that profiles as a high end reliever. I don’t think that you will get a proven lock down guy but that doesn’t mean you can’t get someone that will end up a big contributor.
