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
As someone who attended 15 games this year in section 80, and watched numerous games on TV, I might have had the chance at 3 home runs.
RHB are trying to work the ball towards the bullpen versus dead pulls.
OPACY, due to the summer humidity, is still the homer dome in the summer time. But this was supposed to be our benefit to stack the lineup with LHB, and it was also proved that a team could stack their playoff roster with LHP to neutralize it.
I think the dimensions are going to be the way they are for a while, and I think the pitchers are going to be fine with it overall. There were far too many ‘cheap’ home runs from RHB on high pop ups, but also off the end of the bat from LHB.
The Diamondbacks have 125 million in 10 players. Would they really want to have at $155-$165 million in 11 players of a $199 million payroll (their 2023 amount)?

If you are a 29/81 game season ticket holder, they will roll it into next year’s plan. That’s always been the way it works, and a big reason why I didn’t renew my tickets yet or get playoff tickets. I personally have too much up in the air.
If you bought the tickets and had to input your credit card information, they have to refund you via the card.
I think the original thread title was more appropriate. They didn’t choke under pressure - they stunk for 3 months and continued to stink for 2 more games.
I watched it.
He said was he was supposed to say.
Nothing he said was in the least bit surprising.
Nothing he said was illuminating.
It's as if he opened up a book called What to say after an early playoff exit and started reading.
All of which is fine, it's expected. It's the way these things are done. I'm guessing Dana Brown said something pretty similar.
