Mmmmmm, I'm pretty sure this completely wrong. Sisco had 1800ish PAs in the MiLs before his ML debut- and many hundred after it as well- and a full five years in the MiLs. Rutschman has 440

Witt, Jr. is 0-1 with a strikeout and Abrams is 0-2 with two strikeouts tonight. Clearly the Orioles made the right choice.

The swing reminded me more of Bryce Harper. 

I can see that, actually. I only joked about Zunino because there actually are several parallels. Great defensive catcher, high draft pick, former top prospect, huge power, lots of swing and miss. 

Seems Zunino might be the floor.

445 feet. 

Insignificant observation:

I noticed Rutschman touched the bases with his left foot as he rounded them for the home run (even made a stutter step at second base to make sure he touched with his left foot at second base).  I don't know that I've ever seen someone do this.  Admittedly, I don't pay that much attention to how people touch the bases as they round them in their home run trots, the stutter step just caught my eye.  I always used my right foot - I think there was a lower chance of tripping over the bag by doing so.  I would guess most people touch them with their right foot.  Just a meaningless observation that has no bearing on anything whatsoever.

Bobby Witt, Jr. is playing great right now - just saying.

He's got an OPS under .700 in Double A.  Aggressive placement.  Probably should have started in A ball.  The O's would have him in Delmarva if they had drafted him....no doubt.

Well, he did say he is playing great right now..and he is.  He has been hot the last week or so.  OPS up almost 200 points.

I guess, but parsing things in five game increments is a little silly. Especially when those five games were against the Springfield Cardinals, who are the Fredericksburg Nationals of the AA-Central League. Springfield's team ERA is 6.75, two and a third runs worse than every other team in the league.

21 strikeouts, 7 walks and 4 extra base hits in 76 plate appearances. Of the 6 players in the league with a baseball age under 22, he has the lowest OBP, the worst K/BB ratio and the second lowest OPS.

Sure but we are talking about a very small sample size either way.

We are also talking about a kid who is young for his league too.

      I am with you on this.   This is what Elias does.   Like O'Hearn.   Elias signs Rivera for about 1M, and brings him to ST.    If there is not room for him on the roster on OD Elias DFAs him and tries to get him through waivers to play at AAA.    Then he is available whenever the injuries occur.   I could see Elias doing the same thing with Bowman.

      I think the Orioles will tender him arbitration. Before anyone gets too worked over this possibility, keep in mind we also reached an Arb-1 deal with Sam Hilliard last year. Despite the gold glove, Rivera is a better defender than Ramon, but Urias is the better hitter and superior overall player.  However, Urias will also cost more and could bring back more in a trade.   Further, Urias could get injured at some point.  If Urias is injured in spring training, then yes “something went wrong to cause Rivera to be on the OD roster”, but it will still be good to have this depth.

      I’ve watched enough baseball to know that any team that makes the playoffs can get hot and do well once the postseason begins.  I’m not optimistic about the playoffs, but it also wouldn’t shock me if the O’s made some noise.  It’s a matter of getting the pitching and hitting on the same page.

      Mayo would likely need to be optioned when Westburg/Urias/Mountcastle return.  By doing it today instead of tomorrow or Tuesday, Mayo’s 10-day minimum option length will be over in time for him to be eligible for wildcard series.  On the other hand, it’s hard to imagine a scenario where Mayo makes the postseason roster unless there is an injury (in which case there would be an exception to the 10-day rule).

      Why would he want to?

      Rivera on this club next year would be a step back. He can’t sniff Ramon’s jock. If he’s back on this roster to start the season, something went wrong.
