I can already hear the whining about having to watch McCann get his one start a week when Blake Hunt is in the system. -

Couldn’t have expected more than this in a trade. Catching depth is so thin in baseball. He’s already in AAA. He’s probably in the top 30 catching prospects in all the minors. Probably top 10 in AAA. OPS vs LHP SSS 2024 - 1.078 in 29 AB 2023 - .777 in 36 AB 2022 - .736 in 76 AB 3 options remaining. -

Both Seattle and Baltimore will have interesting choices if they have to plan for a 3-game ALWC series and what you do with the #3 starter. Last year the Blue Jays irritated some of their top pitchers by doing a preplanned Jose Berrios-Yusei Kikuchi tandem in Game 2. Baumann's one shining moment maybe occurs in the winner take all game 3 when all the Cy Young candidates have been used up splitting the first two days. -

Some awful numbers: OPS under 600: Hays, Urias, Mullins and McCann. 356 PA. That is 19% of the teams PA. 17 players have come up and had at least 10 PA. 11 of them have an OBP of 295 or less. McCann is on pace for 248 at bats, which is 41 more than last year. He has yet to walk, his OpS is well under 600 and he has a negative WAR. Speaking of a negative WAR..McCann is joined by Hays and Urias as below replace level guys…combining to be worth -1.3. Hays has a wRC+ of 16 and -.7 WAR. As a team, they have the second worst BB% in all of baseball. Adley is on pace to walk 34 times. He walked 92 times last year and 65 the year before (in less than 400 at bats). He had the most balls called strikes last year (or second most) and I’m wondering if he’s trying to be ultra aggressive because of it? Either way, he’s not a good enough hitter to not walk. -

It is a terrible approach and I don't think anyone saw it coming this year. It's Buck-Ball all over again in this regard and it's awful. That's about what I'd expect from a team that suddenly has great starting pitching but struggles to score runs for stretches at a time. I'd figure most teams have a losing record when scoring less than 3 runs.
