Mayo’s been a bit off in May/June until tonight.   Good to see him have a big day.  I’m neither disappointed nor happy with his season to date — plenty of time for it to go either way.  He’s certainly holding his own but I’m hoping for a bit more than that.

I was able to put together a little highlight video of his stint in RF from yesterday.  Nice assist, noted by a previous poster, starting at 0:29.

Just saw this in the Baltimore Sun. Orioles prospect Coby Mayo has reported to Sarasota and will play a few games in the Florida Complex League next week as he recovers from back spasms, a source

Hits his 11th homerun.

Whats everyone thoughts on Mayo? Alittle disappointed about the strikeouts, low BA and pedestrian OBP - maybe Mountcastle upside. Cheap power hitter 1B/RF with flaws - trade when expensive.

 

He’s definitely not Mountcastle, who has the bat but can’t  throw and is strictly a 1B/DH.  If I recall, Mayo’s arm was the highest rated tool in the O’s system last year.  Something like a 70/80?  He is also 16/17 in stolen bases and has an OBP about .100 points higher than his BA as a professional.

Here is a scouting report from earlier this year where his arm is referred to as “double plus.” Also, he is supposed to be plenty athletic enough to stay at 3B.

I am definitely disappointed in some of his early numbers, but he’s young and oozes talent.  Let’s see where he is at come September.

He's top 5 in homers, top 15 in slugging and top 25 in OPS. Obviously he's been nowhere near as dominate as he was in Delmarva but he's more than holding his own as a 20 year old.

That’s how I feel. When the system leaders in individual categories was posted here yesterday, Mayo was in the top 5 in a bunch of categories. Not bad for a player that is “struggling”. 
 

Gunnar had a lower OPS in a similar amount of games in Aberdeen last year, but still got the late season call to Bowie. Not every player is going to promoted every 50-60 games.

Aberdeen is an extreme pitchers park as well. Would love to see what he can do in Bowie.

While the drop in power and average is understandable at Aberdeen's cavernous power alley stadium, His drop in BB-K ratio early on was a little disappointing. The good news is over his last 20 games (81 PAs) he has a 12-19 BB-K ratio and has slashed .265/.383/.441/.824. 

Hopefully he's starting to make those adjustments and will get on a heater for a bit and make his way up to AA in the second half of the season.

Pitches per PA is to 4.008 from 3.264 last year.  Good show of patience for a young guy against older pitching.

And I don't believe this is a coincidence. We look so much at stat lines. The O's are focused on other things. Guaranteed. 

Their hope is these guys progress just like Henderson, which wasn't linear.

Only 5 homers against rest of the league, seems important. 

Hard to say if it’s anything more than a coincidence.   Jersey Shore has basically league average pitching (4.78 ERA to league average 4.95) and they have allowed fewer homers than most of the teams (43, 4th fewest in the league compared to 60 league average).

Jersey Shore has also been 21% of Aberdeen's schedule so far (by my count), so they've played them a lot. I'm going with coincidence.

      Anthony Santander 2024

      Right now I see the pitching staff as.  Eflin, GRod, Suarez, Kremer and one of Povich, Rogers, McDermott and Young.  All of the 5th starters have options so they can be on the shuttle if needed.   Bradish and Wells may come back in the 2nd half. Pen:  Bautista, Cano, Coulombe, Dominguez, Soto, Akin, Perez, Webb and Bowman.   Yes that is 9 but someone is normally injured.   I will not be surprised if the O's protect Nick Anderson and bring him to camp in case of injuries.    Akin has an option next year. That is 20 pitchers. Will Elias look to improve over the winner? Sure but with the 5th starters being able to either start or be a long man in the pen the O's begin the off season with volume on the pitching staff.

      If you're going to make this a WAR/OPS/OPS+ debate, sure, he's not the best offensive player right now.  But then again his power/speed combination makes him tough to beat. Best talent ever because of the ability to pitch, yes.  That's the point I was making.  Not only to pitch, but to be dominant on the hill, too.

      I think Mullins is as set as the entire lineup, but he would have to go if Elias chased the Robert upgrade. Getz already navigated the 3-team thing when he wanted Dodgers Latin kids, and the Dodgers didn't feel Erick Fedde was the caliber of pitcher they wanted to deploy. I do like Santander as a Victor Martinez aficionado, but he and Kjerstad are both RF profiles and, holy Rio Ruiz Batman, the handpicked kid has to play.    This is one of those calculations where the 80% as good for 20% of the cost part is easy, even if Kjerstad never achieves the heights Santander is at now. There's still room to hope Kjerstad is all Santander is and more, but even if he isn't, the team needs the Santander salary slot repurposed to pitching more than it needs him. I think after this summer's moves, we got a fair bit of information if Elias is trading Cowser/Kjerstad for pitching...looking like he isn't.

      I think you can argue he’s the best talent ever because of his ability to pitch. As an offensive player, he’s not the best player right now.

      Age, body type, how he plays(strengths/weaknesses) and what we have depth at, in terms of high end talent, coming up behind him. And yes, we should be out on most key FAs because they are largely terrible investments.

      Who is going to end up the best career catcher? Wieters or Rutschmann.

      By Can_of_corn · Posted

      I'd say that overall his defense has also been down this year.

      Your point is entirely valid. Just because Tony is better than Trumbo was means nothing, because Trumbo was a catastrophe. It was just beyond comprehension that they kept putting him in the field. That said, Santander is still ok. Diminished range, but a good glove and arm. However, they avoided the problem with Nelson Cruz in Seattle and Minnesota by just putting him designated hitter, so that’s a possibility for Santander, if he can maintain solid contact. But not here. Let’s take the pick and use it on pitching, please.
