Ramon Urias: underrated bright spot

[Moose Milligan]

Is Urias having a big spring training or something?  Not paying attention.

Going into today it looks like had 2 bombs and was hitting .500/.545/1.200    possibly the best 11 PA sample size in history!!?!?!?

Better be playing everyday in 2022..until he proves he shouldn’t…and I don’t think he will prove that.

Ah, and he hit his 3rd bomb today.  Guessing that is what led to the post.     Now a 13 PA sample!!!!!!!

Up to 1.871 OPS and 3HR.

It still amazes me that the Orioles choose to start 2021 with Rio Ruiz at 2B over Urias.

It still amazes me that people get excited about spring training performances.

(Or too depressed about spring training performances)

They really only matter to players that are really in competition. Urias was going to make the team and was going to most likely start at 2B or SS before spring training, but it's pretty clear he'll definitely be starting at one of them now.

You may not be aware, but he had a solid season last year.

10 years ago, an unknown reigned at camp. Jake Fox owned Grapefruit League in 2011

Yet, somehow, in March 2011. For one month. For one Spring Training. Jacob Quirin Fox was on top of the baseball world.

In 27 games, he hit .297/.325/.797 with 10 homers and seven doubles. That averages out to 60 dingers over a 162-game season. He was hitting bombs off Max Scherzer. The Baltimore Sun was giving him the NBA Jam treatment.

And then, it all ended.

In all seriousness he is someone I look forward to seeing what he can do with (hopefully) a full season's worth of stats.  There are some positive signs that he could hit ok in the minors as well.   He could def surprise a lot of people.

Love Ramon.
