When Stewart returns from IL, is Broxton DFA’d? I think we’ve seen enough. Let Wilkerson/Santander man CF. Stewart has nothing left to prove in AAA. 

I don't think so.   When Hays is promoted to the O's then Broxton may at least lose playing time.   Goes with Wilkerson/Santander over Broxton would ready hurt the defense.

Starting to think they aren't going to be able to move Cobb at the trade deadline.

I think I’d send Wilkerson down before jettisoning Broxton, though neither player has significant value.   Wilkerson isn’t really an OF and the utility spot belongs to Alberto for now.

If they trade Villar then Wilkerson moves to 2B and he is the back up CF.    Stewart can join the team and fight Smith for playing time in left.  I don't see Broxton leaving until Hays is ready to take over CF.

Broxton’s defense is good but his offense is SO bad that it more than neutralizes any benefit he brings with the glove. He doesn’t even put the ball in play. He just strikes out.

Much better overall to go with a more rounded player.

This is probably the most likely scenario. Wilkerson goes down for Stewart. We sort of need to find out what we have there. Wilkerson is insurance if we trade Villar. But really, we’d get by with Jace Peterson anyway.

Nice homerun but Broxton is a AAAA player.

Keon's next stop may be Japan, Korea, or Mexico.  Tools. But no carpenter to use them.

Game 3 today of 12 straight. Good chance they go with a 3 man bench during that time. Maybe Hays or another OF up in August.

The fact that Tanner Scott went 3 last night and didn't get sent down is interesting. Guess he's staying for awhile.

Maybe they are at a point with some of these guys they are tired of sending them up and down. Just leave them here and see what happens. Will need to make 40 man decisions after season anyway. Maybe Kline will stick as well. 

Someone will go down for Bundy.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By Filmstudy · Posted

      Holliday went 1 for 2 with 3 walks on Friday night. 2024: .444 OBP, .911 OPS MiLB Career: .447 OBP, .931 OPS His OBP is EXACTLY what this O's team needs, would fill a key offensive weakness at 2nd base, help grind opposing pitching, and magnify the power up and down the lineup.  It's all dependent on his ability to throw and play 2B at a passable level. If Holliday starts to hit at the ML level, the question of who bats leadoff is over for the foreseeable future and we can go back to complaining about 1 slumping hitter or backup catcher at the bottom of the lineup.

      This. We literally have no lineup holes right now, and Mayo, Norby, Jax lurk. Any trade discussion should center around the four most essential and crucial elements to O's success for the balance of the regular season and playoffs: 1. pitching 2. pitching 3. pitching 4. damn, forgot the 4th one. oh yeah, its pitching.

      All I know is that Suárez has earned at least one more start, after today.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      Scherzer still looks like a guy who would be a nice add to our rotation in the second half if the Rangers are sellers.

      Not happening. I don’t disagree, but Kremer will be slotted in the rotation.

      By Allan Bryant · Posted

      I wouldn’t either but the word here is that he’s going back to rotation . Suarez supposedly the one  to be moved to bullpen . I think they should wait and see if Irvin can rebound . If Irvin can’t match Suarez’s work, then he should be moved to bullpen

      Gunnar Henderson 2024

      By Philip · Posted

      Yes that’s what I was asking. COC was completely off base in his comment. Judge is a great player, and apparently a nice guy. I have nothing against him, or most Yankees, for that matter, though Gil’s tats are off putting. I am expecting a bit of pro Yankee bias, but that’s ok. Also, home runs is a very glittery stat, and might sway some folks. But it should be Gunnar, at least based on the first 81.
