Bowie camp

Does anyone know if any of our beat writers, or anyone else for that matter, is tracking what’s happening in Bowie? I for one would love to know what’s going on there. Sim games? How many catchers? Are they tracking innings thrown to duplicate a minors season? Are the batters facing live pitching? I’d be curious to know how Hall and Rodriguez are going to keep their innings/arm strength up whole losing a year of competition. Thoughts?

Steve Melewski has reported on some on what is happening at Bowie:

Quote

“There are a lot of baseball-minded people here and they brought in a lot of guys that know how to use the technology,” said Britton. “So we’re just going to attack it as it is more or less an instructional league. Try to hammer on guys’ weaknesses while trying to maintain what they are good at. And do the best we can to simulate game style and put guys in pressure situations as much as we can. As the summer develops, more ideas and more ways to push the players through it are going to arise. But right now, we have to grind through it early and see how it unfolds.”

    • Mayo coming back from injury could have his debut in Baltimore delayed. 
    • Wasn't a huge fan of his swing for that last out today but coming in to pinch hit with 2 outs isn't easy.
    • Interpreting Malike's comment that way is theoretically possible, but I didn't take it that way--didn't feel that shade was being thrown on me at all. But thanks for the concern.
    • People are being a bit ridiculous with the holier than thou takes criticizing a little humor. I am not saying what happened couldn’t cause a significant concussion, but it would be a bit of a fluke if it did. Mullins barely hit him with the bat and he had a helmet on. The fact that it was in the back of the head did make him more vulnerable, but this wasn’t the type of thing you see and think he was lucky to be alive.  Guys have probably hit their heads harder on the top of the dugout or on the fence making catches.  And note this comes from someone whose son has suffered severe concussions and who is well aware of the dangers associated with them. In short, people need to lighten up a bit on guys like Roy.  It was a little gallows humor. 
    • Yeah, you read that wrong. LA2 is one of my favorite posters here and he knows it. No harm, no foul. If you aren't familiar with the game threads, it doesn't matter what the team is doing, people complain about it and people did make that same joke in the game thread long before Roy said it here. Game thread in summary - when the O's are not doing well, it's insufferable, when they are doing well, it's mildly less insufferable. There, that wasn't hard. I'd appreciate it if you didn't assume I'm throwing shade at people. I'll leave that up to you to do, you're really good at it.
    • Comp a. Like Gunnar, and beavers…
    • Wasn't Westburg a 2nd round draft pick?  It's a little early to judge last year's draft.
