Is he becoming a “prospect” again? He’s off to a great start in Bowie. 1.42 ERA over 5G 3GS 19IP 26SO. 
 

Did he just need to get out of Frederick?  He had been there since 2017. He’s been around forever, but he’s still only 24.

Certainly an encouraging report.

Always important to remember that not all prospects develop linearly.  Chris Tillman was the big lesson for that for me.  I had basically written him off and then he became the anchor of the rotation for several years.  If Peralta can become even a good bullpen arm that would be huge.

Weather permitting, I will be at the Baysox game tonight!  And it looks like Peralta will be the starter.    He is the 17th ranked O's prospect as per the Hangout rankings.

4 starts in Bowie so far this year.  24.2 IP,  32 K's, 2.55 ERA, and a 1.176 WHIP to this point.  Will report on what I see with him and whatever hitters I can.

Yeah, don’t think we’ll like that report on Peralta much.   But at least you got an Adley dinger!

What a game.  Lot of craziness.  Left after 10 pm after the 7th inning.  Lots of scoring and there was a super long delay from a fan getting hit with a foul ball and then carried out on a stretcher. 

Peralta:

Unfortunately i didnt locate the radar gun until after he was removed.  He struggled with control and the contact off of him was pretty loud.  Really disappointing.  Also, i saw him loosen his belt and act like he was going to take his pants off when the umps came to check him on his way out for foreign substances.....so i guess that is a world we live in now.

Rutschman:

Looked impressive.   Obviously the HR in the first was amazing.  He had another deep fly ball that almost went out....and he had a lined shot towards the 3-4 hole that i believe the 1b was able to stab.  Saw him throw out a runner too.

Welk and Stowers also presented themselves well.  Welk showed real patience at the plate.  Stowers made great contact.

Luis Perez let up most of the damage other than Peralta.  He looked good early but then in his 3rd inning of work i guess it was....the wheels came undone super fast.  Then his replacement came in and struck out the side.

All in all i had a really nice time and hope to go back again this year.  We will have to see.

Thanks for the recap. I’ve been pretty disappointed in Welk because of all the errors. Good to hear he looked at the plate. 

Plus the lack of power. Can't be a poor defensive 3B and not hit for power.

Peralta has now had a couple of bad starts of late. I'm going to have go back and see if he's coming out of his delivery again or what because earlier in the season he was repeating nicely. wonder if something is bothering him? Also wonder if a move to the pen might be in his best interest.

Obviously, a lot of these pitchers won’t end up making it in any role, much less a starter.

However, the bullpen is extremely important, especially in today’s game and I would like to see the Os start to develop some power BP arms.

Peralta 8/26

5 IP 1 BB 5 K's 1HR 69 pitches

Im impressed with the 1 BB more than anything else. He allowed 2 ER

Does Peralta get claimed if he's left unprotected? I heard he was Rule 5 eligible.

He throws mid 90's as a starter so he's probably high 90's if developed exclusively for the bullpen.   I think he would get claimed.       I believe he was Rule 5 eligible and even possibly a 6 year minor league FA last year.   I believe he can claim FA if the O's don't put him on the 40 man.

Thanks. My guess is the O's will want to add him then.
