Rich Dubroff has a article outlining the coaching assignments for next year.  I find it somewhat incomplete.  There is no mention of the infield or outfield coaches and there was talk of moving Holmes to the dugout and Cossins to the pen.   None of that is addressed in this article.

But it’s addressed here (at least in part): https://www.masnsports.com/school-of-roch/2021/12/orioles-announce-2022-coaching-staff.html

Well, kind of.   Roch clears up who the infield and outfield coaches are.  But the Orioles are not clear on who the bullpen coach will be and who will be in the dugout.   Seems kind of weird to have a rookie catcher and not catching coach in the dugout.

I believe that they already said that Cossins would move to the bullpen with Holmes moving to the dugout.  The infield / outfield coaches did not change, and they weren't expected to, so there really wasn't much to say about Mansolino (infield) and Sanders (outfield).  All of this basically makes things that we've already been told official.

I dunno. Adley probably could have coached Severino himself. I'm not worried about that.

I don't think the fact that Adley is a good defensive player is the point.   Every player can benefit from someone that is watching him and ready to make suggestion as the game is being played.  Especially rookie that are trying to learn the opposition batters and the O's pitchers.

You do realize that his father and grandfather are/were baseball coaches and he's had coaches at every level?

I don't think he, as a rookie, needs more coaching help than any other player would.

Maybe not more but a least as much as any other catchers.   Most catchers have a  coach assigned to them in the dugout.   If Cossins is in the pen that might not be the best thing for coaching communication.

I’m sure the O’s have considered the pros and cons.   I’d imagine the pitching coaches are just as capable of giving Rutschman tips on pitch calling as Cossins is.   They probably can’t help as much on the physical aspects of catching, but that’s not really an in-game thing anyway.

I think the analytic team comes up with the pitch calling data.

Hyde was a catcher too.

      Anthony Santander 2024

      By Sydnor · Posted

      It is absolutely possible. In 2022, the Mets gave a QO to Bassitt, Nikki, and DeGrom. The Red Sox gave a QO to Boegarts and Eovaldi. The Yankees gave a QO to Judge and Rizzo. The Dodgers gave a QO to Turner and Anderson. I know that it seems to be a foregone conclusion that Santander will not be on the team after this season, and while I generally agree that it is more probable than not that he will not be re-signed, I do think there is a non-zero chance that he will be retained. I think he is the most likely of Mullins, Hays, and himself to be retained, even if it is a small chance. The team has told us how they feel about his bat because he plays essentially everyday, and I have heard Kostka say that they value his clubhouse presence.

      Santander won’t get a QO, and if he did, he would accept. His defense is declining and we have too many capable youngsters who should replace him effectively. But to your question, I don’t know if there’s a limit, but I doubt it.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By OriolesMagic83 · Posted

      O's will probably have to wait till July for a trade because there are so many more buyers than sellers.  I think teams like the Blue Jays, Rays Tigers and Mets are likely to be sellers but they are still in the race although not very good teams as constituted.

      By Philip · Posted

      No Scott. He’s way too undependable. We need someone who WON’T enter a game and walk folks like he’s promoting a healthy lifestyle. He’s been a lot bette4 this season, but he’s too undependable, and we already have too many of those. No Flaherty either. That’s like taking your GF back after she cheated on you.

      The team's continued success has really put Elias on the spot IMO and I don't see a Flaherty type as an option anymore.  My money is on a sensible trade that comes at a price high enough that most of us here, including myself, won't like, but a premium comes with having bad luck and that's where the O's are at the moment.

      I would be very surprised if every last one of the GM's Elias talks to about quality starting pitching doesn't start by asking about Westburg and the rest.  Again, I think it's a mistake to believe that the O's have a ton of leverage here.  They certainly have some, and Elias is smart and disciplined, but I don't see any bargains.  I especially don't see the luxury of acting like youth and multiple years of control is any kind of rigid starting point for the O's.

      I say this as someone who defended Cowser like 2 posts ago, but like his fWAR number is entirely dependent on how much you're buying his defense.  I can totally buy the argument that maybe OAA is overrating him a bit, so he's not really on pace to be a 5.5 win player.  The OAA number is pretty eye-popping.
