Why do they need 3 catchers?

Handley was in AA for what I would take as a rehab assignment.  He has been back in/on Norfolk since 6/12/23.  Caught 4 games of the 6 games series

Kolosvary sure picked the wrong time to elect free agency. 

Yeah, that had to be a spiteful move because clearly he had an opportunity here to get back. Godoy is a guy they can add and then DFA if they need to just like Kolosvary, so maybe he felt like he was replaced anyways. It's worth noting though that Godoy has thrown out just one of 18 base runners this year in AAA under the new rules base stealing rules. 

Overall Godoy seems like an average defensive catcher if teams don't take advantage of his inability to stop the running game. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/jose-godoy-608422?stats=statcast-r-catching-mlb

Godoy only got added because he was already on the trip, same as Kolosvary. Wouldn't be surprised if we had a different backup catcher by gametime tomorrow. 

Bemboom has 3 games under his belt and already has the split contract.  No doubt he is up and Godoy is third catcher to be DFA'd in a little over a month.  Question is... is he the third to take his chances as a free agent.  He seems to have bounced a lot over the past 12 months so me may actually stick with the Norfolk assignmet.

Cool. Now we can have more whining about the lack of offensive production from the backup catcher spot. 

Well as long as we don't inexplicably have this one at DH frequently it should be fine.

      The game is already tied. If he gets thrown out, the O's still have a runner in scoring position and just one out. You really didn't have much to lose by sending him there, with a chance to end the game.

      Yes.  He’s not a great bunter but at least try it once.   Santander was today’s choker.  He’s gotta be able to hit a freaking fly ball there.

      Same exact question Ravens fans ask every season.  No killer instinct.  In the game’s biggest moments, they come up small.  Exactly what you saw today.  Pathetic

      Should we have gone with a suicide or safety squeeze with Mullins? He might be better at bunting than hitting deep fly balls. Just a thought.

      I agree with the second but not the first. If the first fails, that's an extra out. If the second fails then they just get an out at home instead of an out at first, which is not really relevant with Gunnar going to 3rd. For the first case I'd think you need to be like 80% to succeed for it to be right, but for the second like 20%.

      The Sting of Losing Winnable Games

      Bump. Tonight's game wasn't just "winnable" -- it would have been one of the top 2-3 wins of the season. Down 2 in the 9th and we come out single, single, walk, double to tie the game and have two of our fastest runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs, with our 2-3-4 hitters coming up next.  And our guys gagged. They wilted under pressure. They choked.  Again.  This has happened so many times this season that I believe we need to consider the real possibility that the Orioles as currently constructed lack the character, stamina, -- the heart, if you will -- to win games like this. I think these players fail so often because they expect to fail. I remember after we won it all in '83 reporters were interviewing Ken Singleton in the locker room and one of them asked if the Orioles had been lucky. "You make your own luck" he responded. Well, the 2024 Orioles are making their own bad luck over and over again. How does that cycle of failure come to an end? I wish I knew.

      I know the OH hates Holliday, but it's a no brainer keeping him over Soto. We're talking about bench players who are going to, at most, have a small role in a few games. Soto has no pop and is slow. He's a warm body as it is. Holliday's ability to run can be very useful in the playoffs.
