Diaz mashed another tater today. That's 4 in his last 10 games. Seems like the kid may really be back. 

Official stat line after 162 games at AA- 95 runs scored, 84 walks, 29 doubles, 19 HRs, 83 RBIs, .285 BA/.376 OBP/.454 SLG. Promote this guy already.

What's his line at Double A Bowie?

Make him keep doing it for another few weeks.  It couldn't hurt.  He's been hitting for about two weeks out of the 12 or so weeks he's been at Bowie since the trade.

Bowie in 2018:   .239 / .329 / .406 (.732) in 175 PA

Bowie in 2019:  .241 / .320 / .429 (.749) in 150 PA

Pretty consistent so far.   Obviously it's a tale of two halves for him in '19 so far.  If he keeps doing what he's doing now for another week or two, I think it's fair to talk about promotion.

And I think that when we start talking promotion that means Elias will start talking about it in 4-6 weeks.

I don't think any of those numbers reflect the type of player he can be. Last year his performance had an inflection point when he came to Bowie. It's like they ordered him to stop with the good approach. This year he's battled two injuries, I think.

With that said, I want to see more than 1-2 more weeks of sustained success before promoting him. I'm in no hurry. If he turns into what we hope, he's a clear starter in our outfield by the second half of next year.

If he could be a starter in Baltimore by next July, it might be time to send him to Norfolk. It seems he is spinning his wheels in Bowie - one good week then one bad week. I don't know if there is anything else to learn in AA after a  year and a half.

He can finish the season in Bowie as far as I'm concerned.  

Hopefully he finishes strong there and doesn't have to 3-peat at Bowie, but a .231 BA in Double A isn't going to cut it.

      What about Tomoyuki Sugano for 2025?

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      There are several. Snell, Pivetta, Bieber (depending on structure of the contract), Nick Martinez (swing type guy) and Heaney.  May be others. This is off the top of my head.

      I think this is correct but I would say it differently.  I think Elias has done a great job constructing the organization and making it one of the top teams, complete teams, in baseball.  That was a huge hurdle from where he started and that has been a major success. Getting from a top MLB team to a successful playoff team may seem like a small jump but it is pretty large.  And Elias has been tentative at best at trying to make those changes.  He has taken an incremental path in hopes of maximizing his long term potential.  So far that really hasn't had much success.   But like Elias, we really should not assume that the changes needed to make that seemingly small jump from AL East contender to WS contender will not require some pretty big things.  I don't know if that is really different than what you are saying.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      It was never in hindsight. The Os were always against it. We had the numbers. We knew how bad it was going to effect the team.   That is why the MaSN deal was structured the way it was. It benefited the Os for a reason. That was essentially the compromise to having the team move to DC.

      ALWC Game 1 Attendance

      The Mets just had more exciting wins in one week than we had in four months.  I called us the Dull Orange Machine a few weeks ago for a reason.  Really boring team most of the season, with no personality at all.  They seemed to have a "get knocked down, stay down" mentality, which isn't fun to support as a fan.  There are a lot of very good reasons noted here as to why attendance wasn't great, but the energy around this team and the organization is just low and that can't help.  And a slow and boring offseason that doesn't move the needle much won't help attendance heading into next season either.

      This.  I grew up in Northern VA and it always took 1 hour to drive to Memorial or Camden no matter the time of day.  It was always easy to find parking as well.  Now that same drive takes 2-3 hours, and finding good parking is a pain.  Plus, the cost of parking, tickets, food/drinks, souvenirs has skyrocketed.  So the choice is to sit in traffic, fight for parking, pay tons of money for the hassle...or sit on my comfortable couch and watch the game on a huge HD screen for free...

      Any updates on the renovations to OPACY?

      Unfortunately it doesn’t sound like anything will be done before next year. The speakers at the park are an embarrassment.

      I would not pick up O'Hearn 8m option

      If they keep Ryan they can still get Mayo 350+ at bats. He can be full time DH vs LHP and play some at 1st and 3rd here and there.
