Like Stowers, he swing so hard that when he does hit the ball, he typically hits it hard. With the upper cut in his swing, when he gets the ball airborne it tends to go far. 

But, he strikes out about half as often as Stowers.  Also, Stowers has a 1.25 GO/AO ratio, while Rutschman is at 0.72. Was a little surprised by that.

Stowers really has a violent swing. I'm surprised he hits for as high an average as he has, but its not surprising that Rutschman strikes out less. Although Rutschman swings hard, it looks more under control than Stowers who falls over occasionally or becomes off balance when he misses. 

Stowers reminds me of Colby Rasmus.

The blonde hair reminds me of Eric Byrnes.

I don’t think that high average will last. His BABIP has to be insane with as much as he strikes out.

So long as it’s the version who played for STL, TOR and HOU, I’d be OK with that.   The version who played for TBR and us? No thanks.

Revisiting the 2019 draft for a moment 

1. AR - Stuck in AA, despite having solid numbers. 
2. Bobby Witt Jr. - Having a monster year between AA and AAA. 
3. Andrew Vaughn - Having a nice rookie season with the White Sox.
4. JJ Bleday - Have an underwhelming season at AA.
5. Riley Greene - Putting up solid numbers at AA.

It's the org not the player.

CJ Abrams was having a nice year at AA until he fractured his ti lía and sprained his mcl. Pretty solid draft class at the top so far.

Severino leaves the game and could be headed to the IL.  I guess they would bring up Cumberland and move Adley to AAA.  Could they bring Adley up?  Probably not but it is probably easy to say he is the better player in the minors by far.

I think there is close to a zero percent chance they bring him up this year.  I was listening to an O's podcast the other day, and they made an interesting point about the number of guys we will need to protect in the Rule 5 draft this winter, and the value of a 40 man spot.  They felt there was no way they'd give a 40 man spot to AR as they will need that spot later for a Rule 5 eligible player.  Setting aside service time issues and other considerations, the roster crunch this winter may be the strongest reason for me to not see him in the MLB this year.  Granted, we've a ton of dead weight on the 40 right now, but we may need every spot we can get or lose another Pop this winter, and then watch everyone lose their collective minds.  ?

    • HEY YANKEES! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnxNRPy_SOA
    • Yeah I'm all for sportsmanship but seeing 'Congratulations Yankees' at or near the top of the board is sickening, not gonna lie.  There is no high road when it comes to these clowns.  Boone's constant whining, the well-documented HP ump favoritism (I don't care if its framing or whatever, its happening, and its annoying AF), the whining about Judge getting hit on the hand while their guys constantly pitch inside including of course the Kjerstad play where they were literally cutting up on the bench as he lay prone on home plate, the ginormous payroll, the incredibly entitled fan base booing at pitches being called balls that are three inches off the plate, that stupid roll call, that stupid whistle after strikeouts, the stupid national media drooling over a Judge v Ohtani WS possibility, Nestor Cortes and his dumb mustache, the mediocre stadium that is revered simply because its called Yankee Stadium, the ridiculously short RF porch, the Soto Shuffle or whatever the hell it is. Congratulations my ass.  Screw those dudes.
    • Here's the deal. I doubt anyone on the Yankee's board congradulated us last year. This year they won the East. Whippie for them. It's like saying the IRS won tax season. IF, we do anything in the playoffs, we may meet again. But there are some significant hurdles before that. And they could easily lose along the way. Cleveland, Houston, Detroit, and KC are no walk in the park. I'll root for the O's to go as far as they can and that the Yankees are one and done. We are in. I hope we win one more so we play the opening round in Oriole Park. If not, we are still in and have to do what we got to do to go anywhere. Two years in a row. While the Red Sox, Blue Jays, and Tampa sleep. Year two with a heck of a lot more obstacles. This may not be a WS year but we are competitive, young, and a hell of a lot classier than that bunch in the Bronx. 
    • The usage of Cano last night was poor, I don't even blame him really.  Yankees had 9-1-2 coming up, and Torres is well known (based on the telecast) to hit Cano well, and hit sinkers well.  He laced that hit to RF off him on Tuesday where the Yanks screwed up the baserunning.  And Soto got a hit off him that same inning.  So it was pretty predictable that these guys were going to tee off when he came in, and that's exactly what happened. Not to mention he's pitched a lot recently, and Burnes should have pitched another inning anyway.  Just baffling decisions by Hyde last night, and I'm not one to generally question those types of things.  Even if the Burnes thing was pre-ordained, the choice of Cano for that moment was terrible.
    • Why is this thread on the Oriole Talk section.    It probably does not belong on the OriolesHangout  at all but if it stays it should be on the MLB section.
    • If there's two outs and its not Judge in the hole, I'm probably going with Perez, crossing my fingers he gets the lefty, and then starting fresh the next inning with Coulombe or someone else.  If there's one out, I'm going w/ Coulombe.
