It was just a procedural move to allow him to spend a couple extra days with his newborn: https://dodgersnation.com/dodgers-news-evan-phillips-expected-to-rejoin-team-in-pittsburgh-today/2023/04/25/

In Wynn’s Dodger debut, he went 1-3 with a 2 run double in his first at bat and caught a runner stealing (doubling the amount of CS that Dodgers catchers have this season.) Made some pretty good blocks too. 
 

Looked bad in his other 2 at bats, striking out on an outside fastball he had no chance at and looked at a frisbee that went from the left handed batters box across to catch the edge of the plate (great pitch.)

What is up with Mancini?  He was horrible after the trade to the Astros and this year is hitting below .200.  I pains me to see him struggle.  

Guess I should be happy that Elias got rid of him.  Hope he picks it up.  He is entering Odor fall off territory.

Fingers crossed for Evan Phillips, but reading a very sad report LAD have moved him from paternity list to bereavement list.     Not much to hope for except an admin error in the system.

Not much more to say than what you said.  Very sad.

Big night for Darell Hernaiz, who is keeping his AA head above water with a 100 wRC+ as 6th youngest Bat in the Texas League.

https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders/minor-league?pos=all&level=0&lg=7&stats=bat&qual=y&type=1&team=all&season=2023&seasonEnd=2023&org=&ind=0&splitTeam=false&players=&sort=3,-1

Darell Hernaiz, 2B, Oakland Athletics (Double-A Midland): 4-4, 4 R, HR, 3 RBI, SB.
After a promising start to 2022, the offensive production for Hernaiz cratered after a late season promotion to Double-A. However, his .113/.186/.189 slash line in 13 games at Bowie wasn’t enough to keep Oakland from targeting him in a trade this winter. The stats look better this year, albeit in the more hitter friendly Texas League, but his strikeout rate continues to hover around 30%, something to keep an eye on as the season progresses.

Mike Yastrzemski’s hammy didn’t survive the trip to Mexico City. He strained it on a diving attempt to save the game in the 8’th. He had slammed into the wall earlier trying prevent a Nelson Cruz triple (yes, Nelson has a .849 OPS in 62 at bats). Alex Cobb didn’t seem to mind the altitude, except that he might have tweaked something. No official word yet.

Giving up 4 homeruns in 4.1 IP...I guess the only way is up, hopefully, for him. 

Well, I hope I didn't curse Bundy with my previous comment; he now has 12.1 AAA IP and has given up 26 hits...10 of those being homeruns for an unfathomable HR/9 rate of 7.3. Silver lining is that he has a 14/1 K/BB rate, so there is that.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Grt 2BA FL Gator · Posted

      I really appreciate what Burnes did this year. But forgive me, unless pitching to contact is back in vogue, he doesn’t miss bats nearly as well as he used to. And front offices seem to pay attention to such things. For me, I think the contact he induces is valuable. But it seems like he’s lost a little bit of the feel for the hook, which was his put away pitch. That should ding his value a bit and would limit the amount I would spend on him.

      I love this team, I love the Orioles

      By LA2 · Posted

      Re: #3--The 1979 Pirates were the "We are Family" team, not '71, which was about the great Roberto Clemente. My list would have to include: 1. The 2016 Play-in loss to the Blue Jays after Buck refused to use Zach Britton in the 11th inning despite his having one of the greatest years a closer has ever had (47/47 in Saves, 0.54 ERA). 3-run homer by Edwin Encarnaçion off an already clearly ineffective Ubaldo Jimenez. 2. The 2014 Royals' four-game sweep of the O's after they had swept Detroit despite the TIgers' vaunted starting pitching triad of Scherzer, Verlander, and Price. 3. The utter humiliation of the O's in last season's playoffs vs. the Rangers, which we did an incredibly blah and boring job of trying to overcome.

      How does Povich fit into your 2025 plans?

      By Grt 2BA FL Gator · Posted

      I think I’d like to see him definitely be depth with an opportunity to bust down the door. He can kind of play the Cole Irvin role and hopefully succeed better in the swing man role. I think he’s earned opportunities at the ML level and we should prioritize his development, but it will help if he can eat some innings outside the rotation as well. The Orioles don’t always seem to do it, but there are other organizations that let a guy hone his pitching craft in relief, be depth, and make their way into the rotation if they earn it. I think he could play an important role in 2025.

      Elias: It's on me

      By JR Oriole · Posted

      This.  Baseball is a game of failure, but my goodness these guys went above and beyond in that department. Productive outs shouldn't be that hard.  Watch Witt in the first inning of Game 2.  And while the two playoff games perfectly told the story of the 2024 Orioles offense, I am hopeful that national stage embarrassment provides a real learning experience and motivation for fixing what is wrong with them.  As much as I am sure it hurts to watch your own hand being broken, Cowser should be watching that AB every single day from now until next October. Same thing with Adley channeling his inner Chris Davis and staring at that 2-0 meatball like he has never seen a major league pitch before.

      What about Tomoyuki Sugano for 2025?

      By Aristotelian · Posted

      Could fit the profile Elias likes of veteran free agents who might be willing to sign for few years at higher AAV's. I love the splitter. I'd be interested. Free agent means no posting fee, correct? Not that it matters.

      Elias: It's on me

      By DirtyBird · Posted

      All the talk about facing LH pitchers and needing RH bats to match up - I think it’s a bit overblown. Our approach was terrible and our guys failed to play team baseball just as much against RHP w/ platoon advantage. Guys just consistently failed to do their job.

      By Grt 2BA FL Gator · Posted

      I agree on both parts here. I’ve been reflecting on my love for baseball. Even the postseason helped me realize I enjoy the slow burn of the regular season.  I also am far away from MD and for me Baltimore is part of my cultural roots (both parents from the area). So in some sort of way, like you said, maybe there’s a healthy separation and more tolerance for failure. Maybe even nostalgia, lol. But I’ll take it.
