After cooling off to start the month, Hall seems to have made an adjustment and is heating back up. Four multi-hit games in his last 10 including 3 in his last 5. Back up to .792 OPS on the season. 

Still not much power. 9 doubles and 2 HRs. 

Very active on the base paths as well. He's got 14 stolen bases. He can really enhance his value going forward if he's consistently a threat to steal bases. Could be a saving grace if the home run power never develops.

Will Hall pass McKenna in the prospect rankings as Cy Bundy projected.

I suspect he’s moving up more than most realize right now. Maybe our most under the radar guy. Would have to hit for more power to be a top guy, but the defense, hit tool and speed makes for a nice profile.

I don’t know where he’ll slot in. Probably somewhere in the #8-12ish range, which is pretty impressive given the O’s emerging list.

Will be curious to see how Luke and Tony compare Hall to a guy like Knight or Rom, for example. My guess is he’s in their section of the list.

FWIW, he already has more 2B/HR and the same number of BB as 2018, despite 50 fewer PA (~250 vs. ~200 so far) and being promoted to a higher level.

A RHB only Brian Roberts as a potential comp?

      The discussion about Cle vs NYY is interesting. The Os always struggle at Cle and their BP is awesome but the starters are meh and so is the offense.

      Winter 2024 40-Man Additions

      By Jammer7 · Posted

      Bautista, if he is back to his old self, would be a big addition. Dominguez and Soto have to improve the walk rate. They certainly have swing and miss, but at a significant cost. Cano can throw up in the zone and get misses, but he is used so often he is rarely sharp. He is used to induce ground balls, and the sinker is fairly effective when he is tired.  Akin, Webb and Coulombe are getting some swing and miss. They are all above average in swinging strike percentage, according to FanGraphs. MLB average is generally around 11.2% from year to year, and Akin (second on the Orioles behind Grayson 13.6) is at 13.2, Dominguez 12.4, Cano 12.2, Soto 12.9, Webb 11.8, Coulombe is 9.9 and Cionel 9.5. In fairness to Coulombe (11.8) and Webb (13.7), they are higher over the last three years. They have not been healthy for a fair amount of this season and pitched through some things that made those numbers dip, perhaps.  Bautista was 18% in the same period of 2022-2024. He would be 11th in MLB in 2024. No other Oriole is in the top 100 in MLB. Grayson Rodriguez is at #120. It should be noted that Andrew Walters is at 18.8, ranking 7th. He was our unsigned 18th round pick in 2022. All of that aside, I am not sure the pen is structured the same as in recent years. There may be some moves there. Or, perhaps it is like you wrote, and they focus on Soto and Dominguez making adjustments to having more command, decreasing the walks. Those two are getting a little expensive as well. I guess we’ll see.

      How much different? They sat Judge yesterday, they threw their playoff starters for 5+ innings yesterday and today. They are also playing for the best record in the AL. They aren't mailing it in.

      2024 Playoff ticket availability

      By KojiSplit · Posted

      It’s not just the O’s. I’ve checked the Dodgers who have similar prices and they have a lot of upper deck NLDS games 2 & 3 available. Same for the NLCS. yanks still have seats available also. — In general, I’m sure alot of fans are just gonna wait till the day of to grab tickets.

      That makes no sense. If they had to win their current series would have looked much different.

      I agree. You have to wonder if the Yankees are behind him getting hit. Perhaps the ghost of George has struck
