.189/.318/.432

The daily topic of Davis is the exact reason I don’t think the Orioles let this thing linger on for long. 

What kind of reception does he get Opening Day? If Davis turns it around the Comeback player of the year award should be renamed in his honor. 

The ending has been written. Matter of when.

Those are fantastic comps. I must admit that watching Brooks and Cal hit into so many double-plays over several decades had led me to associate it mainly with slow footspeed and right-handedness.

Cal only hit into 10 double plays in 1988.  A few years earlier he hit into 34.  It is hard to hit into double plays when you have Billy RIpken and his .260 OBP hitting in front of you.  Or Gerhart and his .256 OBP.  Compare that to Eddie Murray's 20 GDP in 1988 as he had Cal and his .372 OBP in front of him.

[.189/.318/.432] was Chris Davis’ line this spring.    Would you be happy if he managed that in the regular season?    As a reminder:

2018: .168/.243/.296

2017: .215/.309/.423

2014: .196/.300/.404

 

Well, he has the BA up to .189.    Overall slash line is .189/.287/.379.

A .750 OPS would probably lead the team ........ so yeah, I'd take it.

    • I like Mounty, and do think there’s a decent chance this will be his best season so far.  But I don’t take a lot of comfort from sewing together two partial seasons at points that began and ended with hot streaks, and ignoring his history of streakiness.  He will have to prove that he can minimize the length and severity of his cold streaks, and for me he can only prove it over the full 162 game season.  He’s already had a stretch of 29 games at .657 this year but has been hot enough before and after to make up for it.  Hopefully he’ll continue that trend, but we’ll see.  
    • I love Burnes but wouldn't want to pay what it takes. We still have Ortiz/Hall level prospects we can trade for the next Burnes. Remember we get a comp pick when he walks.
    • He's not going to be realistically in range for us.  It's going to take an overpay to keep him here, and we should have other options heading into the off season.  Hard pass for me. 
    • Roch just posted the starters for the Jays series: Rodriguez, Burnes, TBA, & TBA. 3rd game Wednesday would be normal rest for Povich, so I think there's a chance they'll be calling him up to start that game.
    • I think you are on to something here, over the last calendar year Mounty has put up a slash line of .302/.363/.485 in 438 PAs...that's a long of stretch of strong offensive performance.  I'm glad he's on our team and hope he can keep it going. 
    • Looks like he’s getting ready to go on one of his insane heaters. Couldn’t come at a better time, but enjoy it while it lasts. 
    • I’m open to the idea IF the Orioles & Jorge Lopez reached an agreement, then let him take Vieira’s spot  1) Lopez’s son hospitalization caused him lots of stress  2) change of scenery from Mets losing culture to Orioles winning one could help him  3) Lopez had two stints with Orioles in which he pitched well and had no issues with coaches, teammates & fans  what do you guys think ?
