How Does AR Affect Sisco?

If Sisco's bat really proves to be a plus in the lineup but he continues to struggle defensively, then they really need to consider trying him out at 3B during Spring Training next season. 

If he's capable on both ends I imagine he will be a fine trade candidate.  Regardless, I don't think we would have to worry about moving him until the 2020 offseason/2021 season.

Or does it affect him at all?

It destroys his will to live.   

Sisco’s got 1.6 seasons to prove he’s a starting big league catcher.   If he does, we probably trade him.    If he doesn’t, he’s going to be a backup by early 2021 if all goes according to plan.

Yeah, his worry today should be establishing himself with his current opportunity.  If he can't do that then AR doesn't change anything.  If he does well, he could 1B/DH/C here and/or be traded.

Just my impression, but I don’t think Sisco is going to be adequate on the left side of the infield.    He’s slow afoot and doesn’t have a particularly strong arm.

    • Agree with most everything thats been said, but he needs to get going because when Mateo comes back its either Norby or Stowers back to Norfolk. By the look on his face last night he even thought it was bad luck or execution on that bunt attempt.
    • Thanks for your clarification. Yes if Orioles lose Bradish for the  year , that would be a massive blow to team .  He would be difficult to replace . Nonetheless, Elias & staff  need  plan for trade for pitching reinforcements up to the deadline 
    • That would finish his contract at what 33 years old. Interesting.
    • Another big night, going 3 for 4 with a HR and a double. That brings the wRC+ up to a cool 165 since the beginning of May.
    • Today in his first plate appearance he walked. The line drive he hit in his second plate appearance had an XBA of .660 and the line drive he hit in his third plate appearance had an XBA of .790. I don’t know whether he’ll get out of the current slump, but that’s terrible luck. I still think Mullins can be a valuable player. He’s had an XBA over .500 on a few other balls in games he has played recently that have been caught. They are already limiting his playing time. While Cowser can play CF, the idea that Hays can play CF has no real basis. His already poor jumps have gotten worse this year. His sprint speed is down to 26.9 ft/s. I’m fact, Santander currently covers more feet in the outfield because of his superior jumps. I get that he hit 2 home runs yesterday, so some people are back in on Hays, but playing him in CF is a terrible idea.
    • Oh, no.Perhaps I wasn't clear. Suarez has been solid and an "adequate " starter. I was just saying he cant be the dominant , elite pitcher Bradish is, as good as Suarez has been. I think if we lose Bradish it's going to be a struggle to win against the best teams..But Suarez belongs in the rotation for as long as he pitches well, and he HAS pitched well.
    • Roy , are you saying that if Suarez continues to be “adequate “ , they should take him out of the rotation ? what does Suarez has to do with Bradish ?   Please elaborate
