I'm not sure, I read this. The risk is absolutely real, he's boom or bust, but there is incredible upside if he can cut down on the swing and miss. He was an elite football player as well, so not a one trick pony, hopefully, he's coachable, the Orioles think he is and with this draft being what it is, they went with upside over low ceiling in the first round. The strikeout numbers stalk Honeycutt. According to Baseball America, in the bonus pool era that started in 2012, only 13 players from four-year universities who have been drafted in the first round had a career strikeout rate higher than 20%. Honeycutt's is 26.3%. -

Did you not read what I said? If he only (or mostly) DH’s from the side of the plate that his splits are way better at, don’t you think that will mean his DH splits are better than his catchers splits? -
Like I just wrote, I think they’re more likely to drop than rise, due to the injuries. But I’ll also say, baseball is difficult to predict. Consider how Grayson and Kremer pitched before and after the all star break last year. It’s possible Irvin will suck all the second half, it’s also possible he’ll turn it around. It’s possible Povich starts to “get it” the way Bradish did in the second half of 2022 and Grayson did last year. I don’t assume that because they had a couple of shaky weeks in July that everything will collapse like a house of cards. 💳 -

The Os have a solid track record with the top few picks of the draft, so that should be taken into account here as well. -

That’s the thing though , I want Adley to be full time DH . His DH batting stats are superior to his batting stats as a catcher . I need google and locate the stats and display them for you . I’m not advocating for trading Adley , just saying he’s better as DH than as catcher. I know you and others are complaining about McCann batting, he is because he’s our catcher . Can O’Hearn , Cowser , Mayo play catcher instead ? -
Hopefully the purse strings will be loosened allowing the club to play in the free agent pitching market this winter. We'll see how the arms for bats philosophy works at the deadline and in the offseason. With an SP prospect or two coming through and continued success picking guys off the waiver wire/minor trades I think they can piece a good staff together with quality and depth but it's always going to be tough with the rash of injuries they've had this season.
