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/

Peter Bendix options Connor Norby to Triple-A Jacksonville.

That sucks for Norby. I feel for the guy. Was about to get regular ML playing time with us. Traded to a wayyy inferior team. Aaaaand.....back to AAA.

I mentioned this guy as a rule 5 for the bullpen.  Yeah, those geniuses in Milwaukee with the pitching lab had him all last year in AA and left him exposed this past winter.  When I saw him make his first few starts this year and he looked pretty bad.   Then I realized why they didn’t protect him.  Now he’s lights out.  It’s baseball.  Go figure.

Stowers 2 for 32 w/ 16 K's so far for the Marlins.  .229 OPS.  Eerily reminiscent of Holliday's numbers during his first callup.  I was hoping Stowers would take his chance and run with it.  If he doesn't lock down a spot with the Marlins, I'm not sure where else he'll get a chance.  I assume the Marlins will give him a minor league contract next year regardless.

      FIX THE DANG HITTING!

      By Tony-OH · Posted

      These are some good points. The loss of Mountcastle and Urias has really hurt us of late, especially since Holliday is not producing and the Orioles choose to trade Norby and Stowers for Rogers. Both of them would look better in the lineup than Maton, Rivera or Slater, or Jimenez. We already knew losing Westburg was going to hurt as well, but we thought Mayo would produce if called up, and he's struggled as bad as Holliday.  The fact that Holliday and Mayo together have been pretty much zeroes makes me question the Orioles hitting development too. I mean, we expect young players to struggle a bit in the beginning, but together they have gone 5-for-64 (.078) with 34 strike outs in there first 11 games of their careers. How is that even possible?  I mean, the Orioles could have batted pitchers and probably gotten better results.  Since going on that tear when he hit 5 home runs in 10 games when he came back up, Holliday has slashed a pitiful .180/.229/.247/.476 with 31Ks in 96 PAs. That's an absolute zero at the plate.  Over that same span, Adley Rutschman has slashed .180/.258/.231/.489 in 89 PAs. That's a blackhole too. How about that big bopper Elias got at the All-Star break. Jimenez is  slashing .177/.239/.274/.513 in 67 PAs over that span. There's your 3rd blackhole. How about Ryan O'Hearn? Well he's in his annual disappearance act in the second half slashing .212/.268/.303/.571 in 71 PAs. 4th blackhole.  So since August 11th, the Orioles have a lineup full of blackholes and have some how managed to go 12-13, which I guess is a good thing considering the way they've hit. Gunnar and Santander to a lesser extent have been carrying this team and one or two of these blackholes need to start producing again.

      Usually a trip to Boston is a good prescription for an ailing offense. To take advantage of Fenway Park you have to hit it out of the infield, though.

      At this point if you told me they went 9-9 and finished 91-71 I'd be more than satisfied. Probably wouldnt be good enough for the division though unless 2 or 3 of the wins were against NYY. Hard to see them beating any decent team in a series though right now.

      Yeah I had the thought of moving Mullins back up recently as well. Mainly just to get Adley out of that spot though.

      Yesterday was certainly a hate-watch.  Then I got in the truck and hate-listened while doing errands. I'd like to see some guys come off the IL and get back to playing normal but the clock is ticking and I'm afraid that's too much to ask for.  I'd like to believe that the team can go on a run but as you said that's blind faith.

      I think Kjerstad probably saw the post-game spread and thought Taco Bell was a better option.

      Feels like i‘m hate watching most games these days LOL.    Any belief that this team is going to ‘go on a run’ is just blind faith at this point. This team is like Forest Gump’s box of chocolates - you really have no idea what team is going to be on the field. Will Povich give up 8 runs in three innings?  Or will he give up 1-2 in 6?  Will the offense mash 4 homers?  Or not even get 4 hits? Regardless of opponent you just can’t possibly anticipate.    Also all these lineups with Jimenez, Maton , Rivera and the like are giving me 2021 vibes way too often.
