In our OF pecking order, DJ Stewart probably ranks pretty low.    I don’t know if he’ll have much of a major league career.    But after a lot struggles and, at times, ridicule, it’s nice to see him h

Thanks for the tweet-worthy thought, @now

Has anyone ever had a ratio of OPS to BA like that? 1.051 / .185

Anyone can hit 5 homers in 5 games.    But 5 in 4 games?   That’s incredible.   

7 minute abs.....

 

 

So since way back in 2019 there have been 14 instances of a player hitting more homers than games for four or more games.  Twice last year players hit six homers in four games.  Luke Voit and Aaron Judgt had six homers in five games this year.  Nelson Cruz totally legally hit seven in five last year at the age of 73.

Thanks, Drungo, I knew you’d be the one to answer this question.   It’s a little more common than I thought, not drastically so.    I’d have to think about it, but I’d still say that less than 10% of players who get into a major league game ever do this.

It has to be way less than that.  There have been something like 20,000 major leaguers.  I'd guess a few hundred have ever done this, as it's more common lately, and there are duplicates.

Stewart had his 6th home run in 6 games last night.    Most of them have been crushed down the RF line.

“I was able to clear my head (in Bowie) and I’m mentally in a better place, not trying to do too much and staying within myself and trusting the work that I’ve put in during the offseason and while I was down there in Bowie,” Stewart said. “It was kind of a reset for me, and just getting an opportunity now and going out there and trying to do the best I can.

“I’ve had times where I’ve been locked in. When I earned my promotion last year I was pretty locked in then, as well, but as far as the home runs, never really as many as it’s been, honestly. And that’s the work we were able to put in at Bowie, understanding my swing and also during the offseason not trying to do too much but letting my body generate the power as opposed to over-swinging.”

For some reason Adam Duvall, ATL,  is not shown.  In 8 games from 9/2 - 9/9/20 he hit 8 dingers (two 3 HR games on 9/2 and 9 and solos on 9/5 and 7!). Also, 5 in 5 games from 9/5 - 9.  @Frobby

Who is the hitting coach down at the alternate site? Did Davis spend any time there during his rehab?

For some reason Adam Duvall, ATL,  is not shown.  In 8 games from 9/2 - 9/9/20 he hit 8 dingers (two 3 HR games on 9/2 and 9 and solos on 9/5 and 7!). Also, 5 in 5 games from 9/5 - 9.  @Frobby

Because it was not in consecutive games.  I couldn't figure out how to run a query unless it was a consecutive streak.  So if someone hit three homers today, none tomorrow, three next day, and two in each of the next two... wouldn't show up.

The hopeful thing about this list for DJ and for us is that most all of these guys have had pretty daggone good careers...

They also have the advantage of all (or nearly) being active players.  Dozens or hundreds of players have done this prior to '19 and I'm sure there's some really random players in there. 

Remember the Jeff Manto streak in '95, when he had five homers in three games for the Orioles?  Had 31 in his MLB career.

As encouraging as this hot streak is, I'm curious to see how he rebounds if he hits a cold streak.  I'm glad to see his comments in regards to the things he was able to work on mentally in Bowie and some tweaks to his approach.  I am wondering if that stays true for him on his next 2-25 stretch.

 

 

Sure.    I think Stewart’s career major league numbers are pretty indicative of who he is, except his power numbers are inflated.   The .243 BA and .347 OBP make sense and compare to .255/.358 in the minors

      What's Your Top Priority

      Trade for trout while his is stock is low. Bit of a gamble, but he's a leader that needs a change of scenery. He is our RF/ DH middle of the order RH bat to replace santander  If we can keep him healthy, he might be the veteran presence we need. We have the salary space for his contract

      Worst Orioles Loss of My Lifetime

      By SilverRocket · Posted

      I'm rooting against the Yankees this weekend. Hasn't gotten close to that point for me. The 2016 WC game was the worst because of the Britton situation. The 2014 Royals series was awful. I don't know that this loss was even as bad as last year's vs the Rangers where it felt like we could go all the way. This was just a wild card team vs a wild card team that could go either way, and some bounces didn't go our way and young players couldn't handle the pressure. It's best-of-3, it happens.

      Worst Orioles Loss of My Lifetime

      By gtman55 · Posted

      I'm older than most here. The pain of being a sports fan in Baltimore in 1969 make this year's playoff sweep seem trivial. All three of our local pro teams had great regular seasons. The Colts were a sure thing to beat the upstart Jets in Super Bowl III. No way the mighty Orioles would lose to the Mets in the World Series. And I thought for sure the Bullets might beat the Knicks in the NBA semifinals. Talk about long lasting pain ...

      Adley shares tough health admission

      By gtman55 · Posted

      Come on man, that's a crock. I've been as frustrated as anyone watching Adley's approach at the plate and his uppercut swing. But to say he's the kind of guy that makes excuses is way out of line. I have no doubt Adley will work on getting his body, swing and mind right in the off-season.

      The Savannah Bananas are coming to OPACY

      By NashLumber · Posted

      I was given three free tix to see them in Durham in '23. They oversold the tix, ie. the seats were not assigned, first come / first serve,  the line to get in was ridiculously long, and we had to stand in the miserable heat and humidity of a NC summer.  Worst baseball in person experience of my life. Just goofy from the little I got to see in the three person deep standing room only crowd. We left after three innings or whatever they call it in their version of the game. Way too loud, too. Just too much BS going on. It was like the baseball version of drinking WAY too much gin and fruit punch and the wild colors give you the bed spins.
