I have some guesses without even looking at the rosters.  Kehe and Craig Lewis would be my first two guesses as far as outfielders go.   

There's a number of org outfielders that can go including those two. Also Harris, Janvrin, Cespedes and Yahn could all go. At Bowie, Turchin could go.

Leyba’s only 25 and has a career .901 OPS in AAA over 600 PA. He also missed all of last year with and injury/suspension. We don’t have a 3B prospect anywhere near the MLB in the minors. You at least run him out there and see what you have. His 120 PA in the MLB are a SSS. 
 

Grenier should get the promotion to AAA and be their everyday SS. Valaika and McCoy should not be blocking him. 

Good point about Leyba, but I wonder what caused Arizona to give up on him. It’s not like they’re overflowing with talent.

There is a log jam in Bowie all around.  They have 5 outfields plus Seth and now adding Daschbach who has been playing 1B and LF.  

I was surprised they did not move up Handley to AA. 

I was also surprised they didn't move up more players from Bowie to Norfolk to get rid of the log jam. I thought for sure they would've moved up Stowers.

    • If you want to see how young superstars should play, look at Churios and Merrill. Both big time contributors to their teams in the post season, both players 20 and 21 years of age. Meanwhile, our Jackson doesn’t even get an AB. Something is just off with this organization and their development..
    • I agree with some of the opening post. I cannot blame Hyde for this team not hitting. I believe it is completely analytical based. Analytics are against singles, walks, hit and run or bunts.    I know we can pick our guy to be upset with but I will go with Tony Taters. Adley hit a single to RF and with the right effort and baserunning he should have been on third base. Don’t have to talk about the terrible AB with the bases loaded. There was another play with the Massey single in the second that rubbed me the wrong way. The ball was hit 73 MPH and landed 250 feet. The RF wall is 325 feet away so how far is he playing back against Michael Massey? Tony did not strike me of a guy giving it everything he had to get to a fly ball. He basically assumed Mullins would get it and jogged in. 
    • I would have taken this loss harder in the past guess I'm getting older. Also this team has been telegraphing for over a half season how this season would end. I don't want to hear stats on how many runs this team scored it's a lineup that lives and dies by the home run. The problem is the weather cools in October and the ball doesn't carry as well in summer at OPACY. The Orioles actually got good pitching, but the offense came up small yet again. Elias needs to rethink the types of hitters he has on the Orioles roster and evaluate the effectiveness of having two hitting coaches. There's even an offensive strategy coach and what exactly does he do? "Hey Adley next time you get up the plate try not to make an out".
    • Completely agree and there's no reason the O's shouldn't be a serious player for Soto.  Him and one top starter and I'm happy.
    • Add a couple of seasoned professionals who know how to win. Solid players who have been around a while. These young guys are talented for sure, but that’s not enough. They need to learn to play better as a team and know what it takes to win consistently.  I honestly think they get caught up in reading about how good they are, not proving it on the field day after day.
    • Except Cruz wasn’t an overpay. He’s the rare older free agent that actually earned his money. By the way, Cruz was the 55th highest paid player when he signed his FA deal after he played for the Orioles. He wasn’t even that expensive.    But that’s just an aside. I understand what you’re saying and your point is valid. I’m just still irked that the Orioles basically punted in that offseason that Cruz walked. I hope they are fiscally brave enough to take the next step and not count on Holliday and Mayo to improve next years team.
