It'd be a good idea.  Wonder if we can bribe him to take Odor with him. 

I don't think Odor is going anywhere unless he asks for it.  It does seem as though this could severely cut into his time at 2B if Vavra looks good defensively.   This is also not good for Urias.  I also think Vavra at 2B increases the chances for a Stowers callup.

I’d rather see Urias at 3B than Odor, but apparently that veteranosity is winning us games. 

Urias has been slumping.  Probably just getting a day off.  Odor always slumps, so I guess it’s different for him.  
 

I just  don’t understand the need to keep putting him in the lineup.

Yeah Urias really has slipped since his 2 HR game. I guess the delicate ecosystem of the clubhouse couldn’t tolerate Odor losing playing time.

Hays to DL, Stowers called up would be nice.

Agreed and I think everyone agrees Odor shouldn’t be playing full time at this point, but people seem to really hate the guy. He’s helped the team out this far and deserves a bit more respect IMHO.

    • Where are you getting your stats from that's not correct looking at OPS.
    • On the O's this year, Martinez would have been: 5th in OPS 5th in AVG 6th in HRs in 120 games
    • I think PFF is grading Roquan badly because the safeties behind him are playing like ass and it's making him look bad.  If teams are going to attack him over the middle on crossing routes with WRs (like KC did with Rice) he doesn't really stand much of a chance if the safeties behind him don't throw him a bone.  He's still a huge help in the run game.   In general I think PFF assigns a little too much blame to linebackers on passes over the middle, so unless you're an elite coverage guy at LB it's really hard to grade well.  The flip side to this is that teams probably need to adjust their coverage areas to account for the fact that LBs aren't going to be able to hold down WRs for long.  
    • Thanks. This tells me what my eyes have seen with Roquan. He's been a liability in coverage and the fact that Simpson is ahead of him is not good for our defensive leader. Do you have the PFF grades for offense too?
    • What you want is perfectly reasonable.  But you seem entirely to focused on money.  The team needs to work to improve.  I don't care what it costs, you shouldn't either.  They are going to spend money and payroll will be higher next year and the year after that.  We need them to make improvements and some of that is rightfully going to come from within and not cost much. The improvements that are needed are going to cost too, I'm not saying they wont.  But ownership and the GM should simply work in tandem to make sure the team has what it needs.  I am not really concerned about how much that costs because it should be able to be done without jumping this particular team into say top ten in payroll.
    • This is the right approach. the orioles should be spending more money and I believe they will, but I expect it to be measured with less risk (ie we won’t be handing out a Hader type deal or a  long term contract to Santander IMO) improving on some of the obvious weaknesses certainly makes sense.    1x SP: Burnes, Fried, Buehler 1x RH OF/DH: Martinez, O’Neill, Profar 1x 1B: (wishlist) Alonso, Walker
