Maybe we can just keep him in the minors for 3 more years so we can continue to have the #1 farm in baseball?

That is the goal according to people who worship Elias.

Eh.

He's going to be the catcher unless he's seriously injured or has a crippling case of the yips.

No gain in worrying about the throws.

Looks like they stole 4 bases on him tonight.   3 by the same guy.  And yeah one throwing error.  Think im officially concerned about the arm now.

The DeLuzio guy with 3 steals apparently faster than Neon Deion. Also 3 steals on Sedlock. SB’s not in a vacuum of course, takes 2 or 3 to tango and Buck loved his TTP readings.

I'm not concerned.  I mean, he's supposed to be great behind the plate and a lot of bases can be stolen off the pitcher.  We survived Buck and the kinky obsession with TTP.

Let's be honest, we drafted him because he can mash.

Interesting.  You spell "pitch frame" with an m??

"Don't scout the statline" is a common refrain, but gotta think that goes double for stolen base rate off a catcher. Only so much he can do. Need to see the video with a stopwatch to make any judgments.

Remember how JTrea used to start threads like “O’s fans held hostage” as he wanted us to sign the 20M flavor of the month 1B? I feel those threads are necessary to describe Rutschman being held hostage in Norfolk. It’s enough. Get him to Baltimore Monday.

All he has to do in hit.

Stop it. He put up an .895 OPS at Norfolk last year.

I should certainly hope so.   Deion Sanders is 54 years old and had foot surgery last year and lost two toes to amputation.

Still faster than 40% of the O's lineup
