I’m thinking we’re going to try and pass them all through waivers at the same time, and just see who sticks. 

That’s what I’m thinking too.  And maybe having better Cs in the org that benefit the pitching development?

Aramis Garcia was once a highly rated prospect in the Giants system. A second round pick out of FIU. He has had some injuries, including a hip labrum that required surgery, and missed significant time. There is some power there, and a lot of swing and miss. Reportedly has worked hard to become an above average defender.

If they really are going to go with the strategy of carpet-bombing the waiver wire with a bunch of guys who play the same position, it will certainly be a unique tactic.

Maybe Elias is really bad at choosing what he wants and just wants someone to make the choice for him.

After Orioles picking up 2 Reds Catchers, I went to check their Depth chart.  Other posts talk about MLB teams taking a flyer on Maverick Handley in the Rule 5 this year... After Tyler Stephenson, the Reds are thin/barren as can be and in a total rebuild.

An interesting story from February 2021 from an A’s site on Garcia.

Thanks for posting.  It’s also a good reminder that the A’s have a few highly rated catching prospects.  Here’s to hoping!

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By G54377 · Posted

      What would a Yates/Scherzer package cost? I'm sure the Texans will try and give it until closer to the deadline to regain some ground on the WC race, but they are 8.5 games back right now. 9th in OPS in the AL and 9th in ERA. Nothing really screams that they will go on a run to make to back. The smart move would be to trade expiring pieces.

      I just ignore those type of responses. FIP is clearly one of the better stats to accurately rate a pitcher.   I like it better than ERA.

      Brandon Hyde 2024

      By Philip · Posted

      This is actually a really fascinating question. Stats give you information, but they don’t give you all the information. “intuition” or “gut feeling” is the collection of uncollated data that every experienced manager has. There are always variables that cannot be calculated and the complaint here is that Hyde apparently ignores them. About last night, I would’ve been happy for Burnes to open the inning. Hyde knows how bad the bullpen is, so it is really on him for not delaying as long as possible( IF Burnes said he was done that’s another thing.) My complaint about Hyde has always been that he leaves his starter in too long, doesn’t get a reliever up until the starter is in trouble, and doesn’t pull him until after he’s loaded the bases, and then it’s too late. This was entirely different. 15 pitches an inning is entirely manageable. But to be fair, Hyde doesn’t have a good bullpen buffet from which to choose. I just checked and Austin Voth has .2 WAR in 35 innings and Bryan Baker has negative -.02 WAR in 10 innings, a 5.91 ERA, and he’s given up 11 hits in those ten innings. I don’t understand the judgement in dumping Voth and keeping Baumann and Baker I also don’t understand Mike not moving more quickly to address this need. The price isn’t going down, so he’s either going to grit his teeth, say his prayers and do nothing, or he’s going to have to pay the going price. OR he’s going to find Fuji 2.0, and we will all scream.

      Early Thoughts on the 2023 Draft Class - Hitters

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      Thanks for the info on Sharkey and Lord. Also, you brought this up in the draft discussion, but our 16th rd OF Qrey Lott from 2023 could still be signed. I would think in a “weaker” draft as this year is viewed, and a draft that we traded a pick for Burnes, that we would want to sign him.

      Asset management.  The team is doing fine w/o him.  He can be brought up when rosters expand allowing tenant to hold on to Urias.  He will be up the next time there is an injury for a position player.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By Frobby · Posted

      I’d say both Holliday and Basallo are victims of their own early success and people’s tendency to get over-excited by that kind of precociousness.  Both are having very good seasons at the level they’re at, and are way ahead of schedule for players their age, yet people are disappointed that they aren’t rocketing forward at the same pace of acceleration as last year.   Holliday has a 145 wRC+ in AAA at age 20, and Basallo has a 128 OPS+ in AA at age 19.  If they need a little more time to bake at the level they’re at, that’s absolutely fine.

      What other Orioles deserve to be on the All Star Team (11 reserves, 12 pitchers)

      By CynBeth · Posted

      It used to be with the old ways of voting whoever was first got the start and usually the person who came in second was a reserve and they worked around the needing a representative from every team. I wish they just did that instead of the second round head to head vote.
