Glad he is working his way back.

I thought part of the COVID protocols was that all rehabs would be at AAA, so there wouldn't be a delay when the player would be called up.

He will need to undergo COVID intake which would cause a delay of a day or two to be called up directly to the Orioles from Bowie, so it is possible he rehabs at Norfolk as well.

According to a Nats' beat writer on MASN, that was the case.  

I wonder if anything has changed since the O's Tier1/Tier2 employees hit the magical 85% barrier t he other day?

This is definitely some good news.

Tides are away in Charlotte this week while Bowie is home. I imagine that rehabbing players will play with the closest home team.

I would think that the delay of having to go through COVID protocols once upon joining the Baysox and then again upon rejoining the Orioles should supersede any potential discomfort of having to go on a AAA road trip and only go through protocols once.

But I guess the Orioles don't really care if Santander takes an extra day to return.

I guess I don't understand the difference in COVID protocols between going to Bowie or Norfolk. Why would he not have less protocols if he travels (by Air) to Charlotte vs driving to Bowie for games?

This is from MLB. I don't see anything about designating AAA as the rehab.

Your link is from February.

When the AAA season started, MLB announced that AAA would be held to the same testing standards as MLB, so players could be called up directly from AAA to MLB without additional delay, as they were from the alternate training site. The testing standards are evidently less stringent at the lower leagues, so there will be a delay in moving players up from AA to the Majors (or presumably from AA to AAA). I don't have a link in front of me, but it was definitely announced.

According to an article I posted a week or so ago by the Nats' MASN beat writer, personnel at MLB and AAA are following the same Covid protocols.

That beat writer basically said that players could be promoted from AAA to MLB, or vice versa, have one quick immediate Covid test, and join the team.   Players going from lower levels of the minors to AAA or the majors would have to undergo some sort of quarantine period or something.

He implied that meant that players could only be called directly to the majors from AAA, and that ML players rehabbing could only go to AAA to do so.   Clearly that isn't true if Santander is rehabbing in Bowie.

      Can the O's hit Lugo and Wacha?

      By baltfan · Posted

      Yes, I would rather take my chances with Santander at first and the game tied.  Do you think Erceg was worried about O'Hearn stealing?  Do you think he would have been worried about Holliday?  Holliday's sprint speed is 29.4 ft/sec.  If he isn't on this team to pinch run, I don't know why he is here.  And if you aren't going to pinch run with him, then maybe bunt O'Hearn over.  It's the playoffs.  It's Erceg's first playoff game.  He missed in the middle of the zone a couple of times.  Make him more nervous.  You use a pinch runner here like you use your closer at home.  Make sure he gets in the game.

      Erceg vs Seranthony Dominguez

      By Tony-OH · Posted

      Did you see the points I made at the end?  In this game, the fact the Royals have Erceg hurt us because he came in and shut the door.  But this thread is not about how things would have been different, but rather to show that one, Elias needs to start drafting pitchers higher, and two, he targeted the wrong kind of guy for the back of the bullpen.

      Gunnar or Witt try to be impartial? part2

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      Good take.  Witt got one pitch to hit and impacted the game.  Gunnar got a couple and failed to capitalize.

      Elias is clearly a guy that knows how to build a franchise back to prominence. It's unclear on everything else. I didn't like his excessive drafting of a slew of redundant position players prospects. And I think overall his trade deadline moves since he's been here overall have been a D grade. Having said that, THIS is the big offseason to really judge him.

      I completely understand his shortcomings, but I'm far from ready to say Elias should go.

      Is Matt Wieters >Adley?

      By Bahama O's Fan · Posted

      I really, really, really hope at the end of the season we hear that he was playing hurt for the second half. It's not just his offense, but his defense has seriously declined as well. If he's been healthy, then Basallo may take over faster than we thought. He and Gunnar both started the all star game and haven't been the same since. Gunnar was on route to an MVP caliber season, and then just fell off a cliff.

      Does anybody "have" to pitch today?

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      I do think you're onto something.  Eflin's O/U today is 15.5 outs recorded.  That's 5.1 IP.  I don't think we let him get into trouble in the middle innings with a Lefty up.  I could see Perez coming into to get the last out of the 5th if it's a lefty up.
