Mountcasrle isn't a good enough of a hitter to be batting cleanup.

The Yankees have a young guy that is top prospect and they can bat him 9th to learn while we have to put Henderson in the 5 spot.    This team has two big holes a middle of the order professional hitter and veteran top of rotation pitcher.  The question will be do they decide to add one of those guys in next 2 years or not to let us compete for titles or do we just hope to battle for a wild card next few years.

Rays have been insane to start the year.  8-0.

Checked the schedule, fortunately we don't see them until the second week of May.  Hopefully they are no longer hotter than the surface of the sun by then.

Did you check the Rays' schedule?

Can't do any better than win eight out of eight, but the Rays could hardly have asked for an easier set of opponents to begin the season.  They opened against the Tigers, who lost 96 games last year, then played the Nationals, who lost 107, and are now feasting on the A's, who lost 102.

    • Do you ever keep count how many times the fans are wrong and Hyde is right?   I didn't think so.
    • At one time, the Orioles seemed to be in the minority regarding keeping guys under wraps and to lower pitch counts.  Now this seems to be the rule among teams in the minors.  
    • Billy Cook just keeps grinding his way along.   He gets a little better every year while advancing through the system.  He's at .862 OPS overall but .929 after almost 100 PA at Norfolk.   Striking out less.  Walking more.  Hitting more doubles but less homers so far.  Stealing some bases.  Playing all three OF positions, 1B and 2B.   Can I get a top 30 for this kid @Tony-OH? 😄
    • He isn’t letting Grayson coming off a shoulder issue throw a bunch of pitches. I’m sure they had a number in mind before the game.  
    • You aren't going to impress me with Kremer being the only decent player they got for Machado.  Sorry, that isn't an example of his competence.  As for Means, he got his improvement as a result of going outside of the system with an outside baseball training facility.   He gets a lot of credit for GrayRod though as many criticized the pick.  
    • The Bryce move was less controversial because he didn't escape the guardrails of the draft regulating one and only one Club he had the opportunity to sell his labor to. Last CBA round during the international draft negotiations Tony Clark gave out a quote like "in principle we don't like drafts of any kind" Being selfish for Orioles and with Elias having the extra pool money this year because of Gunnar, I've wondered if Ethan Holliday could quick drop out of 11th grade with a few weeks to go, grab that GED, play one game for Stillwater Community College and earn reclassification to 2024.     Then he just needs to pull that John Elway or Eli Manning thing.
    • Received my voucher email last night (they'll be in my account as of May 24).  There's no way they could've known I was there for the whole game, so it appears everyone who had a ticket for that game and a MyOriolesTicket account received a voucher. Pretty generous!  Good for 2024, most M-Th games (select "blackout" dates excluded).
