Hoping he is called up before the week is over

I'm not sure if day 1 is considered Thursday or Friday when we started. So today is either day 5 or day 6. I believe he needs 6 days off the roster to avoid accruing a year, so could be any day if that's the only consideration. Things are kinda a mess right now though so who knows.

Apologies if this has been answered already, but was it ever determined whether the correct metric was days or games? At one point it wouldn't have mattered as we had 13 straight days with games, but the postponement of the Marlins games may throw a wrench in that.

It is days. And given that Nate Pearson is coming up tomorrow, it is safe to assume it is now open season on getting the extra year of service time.

I imagine he has made good progress shagging flies in Bowie the last few days so he can be fully MLB ready.

Day 1 was Thursday.

I think not much longer.

 

Hopefully soon, Stewart is showing me absolutely nothing at the plate or in the field. I think they are going to wait if MLB can get a better handle on the covid situation first tho

One would in a normal season give Stewart the time to right the ship, but this is Bizarro season where 16 teams are making the playoffs.  The Orioles appear to have the makings of a legit lineup with Iglesias, Alberto, Nunez, Ruiz, Santander and Severino all hitting well and Mountcastle would be a big addition to it.  I mean, maybe the Orioles don't want to make the playoffs, but that would be a shame.

I still think Mountcastle belongs at 1B... . . . . .

I really doubt the O's are thinking playoffs this year.  The lineup is shaking out pretty well but they don't really have the pitching.   I guess if it happens it happens.  But if some team really wants Cobb, Elias is not going to think twice even if we are in the hunt.

Mountcastlle should get a chance at both LF and 1B as both those positions are big holes in the lineup.

    • Can you imagine that same lineup but with Mayo, instead of Urias, at 3rd?  🙂
    • Good summary. This would be my guess as well. Won't stop people from repeating proposals that make no sense and then getting mad when they don't happen.
    • Toronto up 8-1, hate rooting for the Jays. They blew a 5 run lead last night and got destroyed. No matter the results, the Yankees pitching has regressed badly.
    • Your logic totally eludes me.    He was excellent last year.  He has been excellent in May and June this year.   He’s not the same pitcher he was in 2022 and before with the Orioles.  
    • The end of the first half of the season also marks the end of the third 27-game segment.   Here's how our players have done in each segment:  [Note: I am editing this to get the columns lined up right, so come back later if this looks funky] Name PA rWAR Rdrs OPS fWAR OAA wOBA xwOBA Rutschman 119 1.2 2 0.816 0.9 1.2 0.361 0.383 226 2.0 2 0.815 1.7 1.2 0.353 0.343 348 3.4 5 0.830 2.9 6 0.359 0.346 Mountcastle 103 1.1 1 0.906 0.6 -3 0.393 0.395 205 1.3 3 0.788 0.8 -2 0.342 0.342 319 1.9 4 0.786 1.1 -5 0.339 0.351 Henderson 124 1.8 0 0.959 1.9 2 0.408 0.389 243 3.7 5 0.938 3.3 3 0.399 0.390 367 6.0 5 1.002 6.0 7 0.428 0.398 Westburg 101 1.4 1 0.903 1.3 1 0.394 0.422 209 2.3 2 0.859 2.2 4 0.373 0.374 312 3.0 4 0.853 2.6 5 0.364 0.362 Cowser 80 1.0 0 1.037 1.4 3 0.439 0.390 177 0.9 1 0.772 1.7 6 0.337 0.365 253 1.3 1 0.768 2.2 6 0.332 0.362 Mullins 100 0.7 1 0.717 0.7 2 0.311 0.304 173 0.1 -1 0.564 -0.1 1 0.249 0.244 250 1.1 1 0.664 0.8 3 0.288 0.269 Santander 113 0.3 0 0.728 0.3 1 0.319 0.302 209 0.6 1 0.706 0.4 0 0.311 0.293 322 1.4 -2 0.796 1.4 -2 0.341 0.322 O'Hearn 71 0.7 0 0.929 0.7 0 0.403 0.502 154 1.1 1 0.802 0.9 2 0.347 0.398 240 1.7 1 0.807 1.4 1 0.349 0.382 Hays 50 -0.8 -1 0.311 -0.7 -1 0.149 0.286 80 -0.9 -3 0.430 -0.7 -1 0.194 0.266 132 0.0 -2 0.686 0.1 -2 0.300 0.312 Urias 44 -0.1 0 0.484 -0.3 -1 0.215 0.214 68 0.3 1 0.608 0.0 -1 0.272 0.295 131 0.3 1 0.649 0.9 -3 0.286 0.297 McCann 43 0.0 -1 0.651 0.0 -0.3 0.284 0.323 83 -0.3 -2 0.501 -0.4 -0.9 0.217 0.289 119 -0.3 -2 0.551 -0.3 0.3 0.240 0.301 Mateo 39 0.3 0 0.733 0.3 -1 0.328 0.292 119 1.3 5 0.734 1.0 1 0.317 0.305 169 1.3 2 0.729 1.0 0 0.311 0.286 Holliday 36 -0.5 -1 0.170 -0.3 3 0.089 0.155 36 -0.5 -1 0.170 -0.3 3 0.089 0.155 36 -0.5 -1 0.170 -0.3 3 0.089 0.155 Kjerstad 5 -0.1 0 0.000 -0.1 0 0.000 0.057 17 0.0 1 0.437 -0.1 0 0.143 0.229 29 0.3 1 0.745 0.1 0 0.334 0.269 Stowers (2) 19 0.1 -1 0.924 0.1 0 0.388 0.448 36 0.1 0 0.763 0.1 1 0.321 0.370  
    • What date is that? I feel they both may.
    • Good heavens, why didn’t you understand that? When he was with us before he was terrible.you can see his walk rate was never good with us. I was overjoyed when we traded him to the Marlins, and except for last year,  he was a headache with them too.  So I am concerned, and with reason, that if we buy him back, he will again be bad with us, so no thanks.
