There's no way he's going to finish a MLB season in which he had significant plate appearances with a .350 average

Why not?   I don’t think it’s that unusual.  There are a ton of guys hitting in the .340 - .360 range in the International League this year.

My daily mental gymnastics is reading Just Regular's posts!

Sure you do. He doesn't draw walks and he hasn't hit for much power in AA. His value is entirely based on him hitting tons of singles. I know he isn't a normal prospect, but he's also 24 in AA. He's v

He has K'd a whopping 7 times in 124 at bats. Wow!

I think the poster meant that he won’t hit .350 for a full season in the majors.

Mayo may need to move off of 3rd at some point but I see no evidence that the Orioles are there with him right now.  Obviously he has a lot more value if he can stay at third.

The evidence would be that he has been moved off of 3B in 25% of games over the past month even though there's really not anyone else pushing for time at that spot. He played 1B twice in the first two months of the season and six times within the past month. Only two 1B appearances during all of last year.

Not sure how much his "value" matters if he's pretty close to untouchable and it's pretty apparent that some combination of Gunnar/Jackson/Westburg/Ortiz are going to fill the two spots on the left side. Things would have to change dramatically for Mayo to be a long-term 3B for the Orioles.

Personally, I would really like to see him get some time in LF/RF. If he can't hang there then whatever; again it's not like he's going to be traded so who cares if he looks bad there.

With the strength of our MI prospects, Mateo has to go. Trade him for a reliever and cut the ambilical cord

If Hernaiz got us a #5 SP I’d sure hope we could do better than a reliever for Prieto.  He’s a major league ready IF.

Maybe you mis-read. I said trade Mateo for a reliever. Our MI depth is too stacked to keep him flailing in the bug leagues.

      Who sits for Slater in Game One?

      By HowAboutThat · Posted

      If you’d rather have Trumbo under any circumstances, well then. God only knows how many extra runs scored because he let a ball fall in front of him, but it was a lot. An out at the plate is only an out, and it may or may not come with RISP, but a missed catch in the OF gives the offense another chance, extends the inning, puts more pressure on the pitcher.  Mullins saved a lot of runs with his defense and speed even when he wasn’t hitting. im not talking about errors, nor am I talking about routine fly balls, but about the extra inches a good defender gets that make the difference between a catch and a non- catch, and that’s important. And no one knows before the game what will be required of the defender. nine guys come to the plate, and if one of them is in the lineup not for his offense, but for what he offers with the glove, that’s fine. The other eight should cover for him. Thats why Kevin Pillar had a successful career.

      Not sure why you bothered to quote me. I was helping another poster figure out how not important a left fielder is when it comes to defense in the modern game. You don't start a left fielder for defense.

      Os vs KC in WC round

      Were we on Sunday Night Baseball that Sunday 9/17?    My Google of Rosh Hashanah 2023 said it ended at sundown the Sunday. I'm not Jewish either but I am baseball, and in childhood the Sandy Koufax stories I remembered most were about Yom Kippur. The Google also reminded me Kremer's turn as Texas finished the sweep was just 2 days after October 7th. Let's get a sweep, guys.

      I don’t care what Slater did before he came to us this season. Just like I didn’t care what Hicks did before he came to us last year.  Since we acquired Slater he has a .707 OPS vs LHP and Cowser has a .500 OPS vs LHP.  It’s a coin flip. If we stick to what we’ve done, then it will be Slater. He hasn’t not started versus a LH SP since we acquired him.  I’m good with him or Cowser. Mullins is a lock. If I had to bet I’d think the lineup will be, 1. Gunnar SS L 2. Westburg 2B R 3. Santa RF S 4. Mounty 1B R 5. Adley DH S 6. Slater LF R 7. Urias 3B R 8. Mullins CF L 9. McCann C R
