His 2019 AAA Reno 300/351/519 was a 92 in the Baseball Prospectus book's DRC+, which is basically their flavor of OPS+

Mountcastle's 2019 AAA Norfolk 312/344/527 was a 114.

That said, I have no qualms whatsoever about giving him some reps at Wilkerson or Valaika's expense this month.

I'm in the distinct minority on this board about calling up Rutschman and others right now because I believe there is value in minor league development that others don't agree with but Leyba has 600+

Just read up on this guy's history a bit more.  Really interesting case.   Hit well at the AAA level in 2019 for Arizona (.870 OPS).  Arizona called him UP to the majors, and he hit .807 although

On the plane maybe?  Reporting into Norfolk?

Never heard of him. Where is he? Never mind, just read about him in a different thread.

Interesting that he’s playing 3B in both of his starts so far at Norfolk. 

I was going to joke Tyler Nevin's 1 game there inspired Elias to make a roster claim, but I see Nevin is up to 3 games now too so perhaps entering that AAA mix more than once a week.

He has been a SS/2B most of his career.  But the O's had him playing 3B tonight.

I saw him in two plays at 3B, one he fielded fine and threw a nice, if not a little loopy throw to 1st base. The second one was a rocket that glanced off his glove while going glove side. Not sure if they gave him an error or not, but worth noting it takes awhile to get use to that hot corner.

      I'm not disregarding his past performance, but in general recent performance is more relevant if it's a decent sample size.  140 PAs is a pretty high number.  It's been pretty clear for awhile now that what he was once good at he's not good at right now.  I'd rather see Kjerstad bat against lefties than Slater at this point.

      Os vs NL

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      Today was, thankfully, the last games vs the NL this year…barring a WS run of course. The Os finish 19-26 (that’s a sub 70 win% seasons) vs the NL and were outscored by 42 runs.     That means vs the AL he has outscored them by about 115 runs and are 24 games over 500.

      It’s the quietest 879 in the history of baseball.

      I disagree Mayo is one of the reasons the Orioles have not hit well.  Emmanuel Rivera, who has hit well with an .879 OPS since he joined the O's, has gotten the playing time over Mayo.

      I was sort taking that as a fait accompli. Signing expensive long-term free agent deals for one dimensional sluggers heading into their 30s definitely does not seem like Elias's style, especially when an extra high draft pick (and accompanying extra bonus pool money) is the reward for not doing so.

      The Defense Thread, 2024

      By Frobby · Posted

      Game 153, Sept. 19 Lots of notable defensive plays today.   Kjerstad made two excellent catches, one going back and towards the RCF alley that (per Kevin Brown) was a 50% probability catch, and another going back to the wall near the corner and making the catch at close to full speed.   Holliday snared a line drive at the top of his leap, and also made a nice backhand running catch of a soft fly into medium RF. Mullins made a diving catch in the 7th on a sinking liner that he got a great jump on.   In the 9th, with runners on 1st and 2nd, Heliot hit a liner in the RCF gap that carried much further than it first appeared it would.   Mullins and Slater dove for it simultaneously and Slater actually gloved it for a second before it popped out while Slater landed on Mullins.  Luckily, the two base runners totally misread the play, and after Slater quickly scrambled to his feet and threw the ball in, the runner originally on 2B scored but the runner on 1st only advanced to 2B, and the batter had to stop at first.  The O’s were able to keep any further runs from scoring. One thing I’ve noticed about Manny Rivera is that he’s very slow charging bunts and slow rollers/choppers. He handled one bunt and one chopper in front of him today and both times the runner beat his throw rather easily, something that has happened a lot when Rivera has manned 3B.   I’m more than ready to have Urias -and/or Westburg back at the hot corner.

      Lord I needed that

      Don’t know what happened to him on here but I did meet him and some others from The Sun forums at the park on Matt Wieters first game as an Oriole. If I recall correctly his name was Patrick.  He seemed like a good dude but he did have his face painted and was wearing those big hulk hands…which did strike me as a little odd for a grown man but to each his own.
