Adley, Grayson and Stowers join the team.  The team gets hot.  In August they are close of to a Wild Card spot.   Elias pulls a Dan Duquette move that he did with Manny and promotes Gunnar to the majors.   O's win a Wild Card spot.  Its 2012 all over again.

Now this is a lot of ifs but if we are daydreaming...................

I bet that you have the best "nightdreams"!

We just need to earn this split and sweep Kansas CIty before I start triangulating how far we are away from 6th place in the league.   6th place playing .560 ball right now.

This kid is impressive.  Looks incredibly comfortable at the plate against a tough lefty today.  With his hit today he has reached base in all 24 games this year for the Baysox.   And then steals his 8th bag of year standing up.  I’ve been equally impressed with his foot speed.  
 

 

In next AB lines a single up middle and then steals second base of the game(9th on season).  6th multi hit game on the season.   I don’t remember hearing much about his run game.  He’s getting massive jumps.  

[emmett16]

Just stole his 3rd base of game.  Another massive jump.  Heck of a game going on between Bowie and Harrisburg.  1-0 pitchers duel nail biter.  Stallings throwing a no no.

It might just be a SSS hot streak, but Gunnar is acting like a guy who has just had some things click, the game has slowed down, and as a result he has levelled-up. 

[Frobby]

Three stolen bases in Game 1 today, ten on the year.   That’s a part of his game I wasn’t expecting.  

[emmett16]

Extended his streak to 25 games in a row getting on base.  (Two nights ago in last at bat with a 3 ball count got an “auto ball” to extend on base streak).

So he's 2013 Adam Dunn but in AAA?

Isn’t Stowers an above average defender?  Dunn was one of the worst defensive players in MLB history.

Sure.

It wasn't clear I was talking about offense?

Well yeah but I’ll take 2013 Adam Dunn with good defense.

But you're getting a guy putting up 2013 Adam Dunn numbers in AAA.

That isn't what you are probably going to get in the majors.
