We called up Terrin Vavra in the middle of a hot streak (he was OPS'ing 1.1.12 over his last 7 games in the minors and .910 over his last 28) and we see how well that worked out for us.

On the other hand, Rutschman was called up during a cold streak and while he of course did eventually right the ship, he was definitely hurtin' for a little while up there.

I'm all for getting a guy while he's hot up here.  Both Henderson/Stowers are hot right now (and Westburg is decidedly not), so I'd bring both of them up, IMO.

LOL does he qualify for the team lead with only 38 PAs? Phillips only has 37. That’s quite the SSS you’ve built your decision on. 

Yet It seems to be a large enough sample size for you to call him a terrible hitter. Go figure

What are you talking about? I’m saying he’s a poor hitter based on 314 career PAs where he’s put up a .610 OPS. You’re using the 38 PAs this year as an argument.

McKenna posted  a .558 OPS IN 2021

McKenna has thus far posted a .694 OPS IN 2022

He has also posted a .927 OPS in 35 ABs against lefties.

All in a whopping half season of combined MLB play

I think it's a stretch... in fact a little silly to dismiss that as a terrible hitter

But whatever.

Yeah. McKenna isn’t as bad a hitter as some on this board make him out to be, but it’s not the strength of his game either. 
 

on the other hand, lumping him in with nevin/phillips (and odor who wasn’t even mentioned), is equally ridiculous 

He’s having a much better season offensively than last year (.694 OPS vs. .559).  At .694 you can justify carrying a defense-first OF.

Odor is vital to the teams success.  Duh!    

Haha I thought my mildly critical post of Bradish would end up being the worst aging post of the night but you win. 
 

for the record game winning home run and all I am ready for Stowers to come up. Send down Nevin and Odor to the bench

That's the correct move as I don't see the need for Nevin on this team, especially at the cost of not having Stowers on the roster.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By Filmstudy · Posted

      Holliday went 1 for 2 with 3 walks on Friday night. 2024: .444 OBP, .911 OPS MiLB Career: .447 OBP, .931 OPS His OBP is EXACTLY what this O's team needs, would fill a key offensive weakness at 2nd base, help grind opposing pitching, and magnify the power up and down the lineup.  It's all dependent on his ability to throw and play 2B at a passable level. If Holliday starts to hit at the ML level, the question of who bats leadoff is over for the foreseeable future and we can go back to complaining about 1 slumping hitter or backup catcher at the bottom of the lineup.

      This. We literally have no lineup holes right now, and Mayo, Norby, Jax lurk. Any trade discussion should center around the four most essential and crucial elements to O's success for the balance of the regular season and playoffs: 1. pitching 2. pitching 3. pitching 4. damn, forgot the 4th one. oh yeah, its pitching.

      All I know is that Suárez has earned at least one more start, after today.

      Scherzer still looks like a guy who would be a nice add to our rotation in the second half if the Rangers are sellers.

      Not happening. I don’t disagree, but Kremer will be slotted in the rotation.

      I wouldn’t either but the word here is that he’s going back to rotation . Suarez supposedly the one  to be moved to bullpen . I think they should wait and see if Irvin can rebound . If Irvin can’t match Suarez’s work, then he should be moved to bullpen

      Gunnar Henderson 2024

      Yes that’s what I was asking. COC was completely off base in his comment. Judge is a great player, and apparently a nice guy. I have nothing against him, or most Yankees, for that matter, though Gil’s tats are off putting. I am expecting a bit of pro Yankee bias, but that’s ok. Also, home runs is a very glittery stat, and might sway some folks. But it should be Gunnar, at least based on the first 81.
