There is no doubt Anthony Servideo brings the most unique hair style of any of the Orioles draftees so far. Plate discipline guy at the plate who got off to a red hot start after completely bombing in the Cape Cod League last summer with wood bats.
Defensively, a 50 arm suggest he might have enough arm to stick at shortstop, but there are mixed opinions on whether he can stay there. He's a 30-40 (scouting grade, not home runs) power guy and though he's got some strength, game power is not
So am I reading those suggestions correctly? They think Mountcastle is either worth a Tier One Division One starter... or a Tier 2 Division 2 starter?
I vote for the first 😉
Posted this in another thread but a reminder of how Holliday views his leg kick:
https://blogs.fangraphs.com/jackson-holliday-talks-hitting/
Now maybe he’s wrong about the leg kick as he faces tougher pitching but I don’t see him dropping it anytime soon.
I also don’t recall anyone being worried about it before.
Well he isn't exactly tearing it up since he got sent down. I think he is something like 6 for 31 since? Which makes him 8 for 70 (roughly) since his call up.
Which is batting around .115 or so for the past month.
He has obviously hit a level of talent that he is not handling all that well. Considering his age, unless he really starts tearing it up? I would be inclined to leave him down in AAA all year until the late season call ups.
Roy, man I love you as a sportscaster personality and more importantly as just a genuinely nice person.
I do.
But this is why I said last week in the thread you made about how the O's would get blown out by the Yankees that you are saying things lately that don't seem to be making much sense and many other posters would be banned by now for the same things.
And don't get me wrong. I don't want you banned and I hope you keep posting for a long long time. You are a true O's, albeit very emotional..FAN.
But Roy, read the OP. He clearly said those trade ideas were from a Red's message board. 2 times I believe.
Cmonnnnnnnn man!
BTW as far as the actual trade ideas? Laughable. Not even being a homer. But just laughable.
