Agree with can of corn, his teammates comments, while well intentioned, caused concern.  I really didn't think twice until reading his teammates statements.  But I think the biggest thing is as stated, something needs to be tested.  If he said he needed to be tested for cancer, people would say OMG Trey has cancer and freak out.  And then if it came out he didn't have cancer get upset for "him" working everyone up.  I've been waiting for us to not suck and will continue waiting for another year or so, so I think I can wait for Trey's results.

What part of stop speculating did you not understand. 

Seriously @Tony-OH i second what @interloper said about locking this thread. It's not even worth leaving it open for well wishes because it's not like Trey will see them.

Prayers up to L Ron in hopes that Trey is alright.

I'm a big Mancini fan, I'd like to see him do really well these next few years and see him get in the O's HoF.  Seems like a good guy, good teammate.

Some of you need to chill with the speculation.  Speculating on what players we lose 100 games with is fine...speculating on what kind of medical issue this is...isn't the best.

What part of that post did you not understand?  Lol.  There is no speculating.  I'm explaining why they wouldn't say anything.  i.e if he said he was getting cancer tests, people would go crazy about him having cancer.  I'm learning you don't like to read posts.

Not speculating but it's a good thing these players get physicals at the beginning of camp so issues can be identified quickly.

Underscores why, no matter your age you should have a regular checkup.

I wish Trey the best.

Good post.

Wishing Trey a speedy and full recovery, from whatever this is.

It's a shame you don't get paid every time you use the word "cancer". You'd be a millionaire.

So Mancini terminal illness Bingo would be in poor taste?

The contrasts on this site are unbelievable at times. There is the depth and information in the daily Sarasota reports and the intelligent posts started by regulars like Frobby. A lot of great debate, information, and differences of opinion! Then there is this OP that keeps going on when it should have been closed pages ago.

It's still the internet.  ?‍♂️

The mods show restraint and remarkably good judgement when it comes to closing off discussion.

    • Hopefully the O's took notes on the Red Sox exposing Trevino on Sunday night. Anyone not named McCann, Rutschman, and O'hearn - if you get on base, just run. 
    • I just read a take on his changeup that loved it - thought it might help him be a "reverse splits" kind of RH middle reliever. Right now the Orioles have a bunch of lefties though should Coulombe end up okay.
    • BP profiled him today: Brandon Young, RHP, Baltimore Orioles Listed Height: 6-foot-6 Listed Weight: 210 pounds DOB (Age): August 19, 1998 (25) Pitch Velo Spin IVB HB Total % Whiff% 4-Seam Fastball 93.5 2124 18.0 -4.8 131 48.7 31.8 Changeup 85.5 1730 9.8 -13.3 64 23.8 22.9 Curveball 75.7 2723 -14.4 11.5 34 12.6 40.0 Slider 85.4 2048 5.4 5.5 26 9.7 12.5 Sweeper 79.5 2084 1.7 11.5 14 5.2 11.1 Injuries limited Young to just 53 1/3 innings between 2022 and 2023. Upon return to action last year, he flashed increased velocity. That velocity bump has carried over to 2024. Now, Young’s fastball has borderline-average velocity (previously below-average) but above-average carry and extension (6.6 feet). It is further aided by strong command. After his fastball, which is by no means a world beater, Young has a smattering of average secondaries. He primarily relies on a changeup–really his only secondary with above-average potential–that has solid velocity (8 mph), vertical movement (8+ inches), and horizontal movement (8+ inches) separation from his fastball. Both his breaking balls either lack enough power (curveball) or depth (slider/cutter) to be viable putaway pitches at the MLB level. His seldomly-used sweeper has potential, but it has had little success so far. Young adds to the depth of the deepest system in baseball, yet he very well may just be that–depth–likely without an above-average offering. Of course, he could become a viable fantasy arm even with mediocre stuff due to his command and control. 
    • You would theoretically make more money over time by best serving your employers.
    • They announced his rehab was over and that he would be back in AAA.
    • If I sell someone a house, I don’t advise them to buy the most expensive house because that means more money for me. I get to know the client, understand what’s important for them and advise them based off of that. That’s how you should always handle a job like that imo. Your wallet should not be part of the equation.
