I am happy to see all these threads about which guy is better among a bunch of good guys instead of which guy is least awful among a pile of dregs.

But the flip side of this Embarrassment of Riches is that we are possibly wasting valuable assets. Stowers may not be our best, but someone wants him. Same for any one of 3-4 guys you’d care to name. Even if we sell a little undervalue, we need to move somebody. Otherwise, the Norfolk squad could move to Oakland and outwin the As.

The biggest improvement manager Brandon

Hyde has noticed from Coby Mayo is his defense. The infielder, who mainly plays third base, has taken leaps forward on that front.

Hyde had already seen the potential Mayo has with a bat in his hands.

"He's come a long way defensively," Hyde said. "The power in batting practice is ridiculously impressive. ... But his defense has stood out. He's made big strides defensively."

So far, Mayo has shown off both sides of his game in his first few opportunities. He doubled in his first at-bat of the spring and added two singles and a walk two days later. On Tuesday, Mayo powered a ball foul down the left-field line and finished the long at-bat with another walk before driving an RBI double later in the game.--Baltimore Sun

Just now, DirtyBird said:

Mayo was just put in as pinch runner for Cedric Mullins. He must be faster than Mullins.

Can someone ask his dad if that is true?

Is it possible for you to stop trolling Roy? Nobody forced you to read this thread. Scroll on by if it hurts your feelings.

      The outfield might be slick from all the rain. I think that can influence lineup decisions.

      Rutschman 2nd half OPS .585 - McCann’s 2nd half OPS .785

      By e16bball · Posted

      I’ve been rending my garments over Adley and his struggles for months now. But I will say that it seems like a bit of an odd time to come together as a group on the notion of benching him — just as he’s been starting to show some signs of being Adley again.  Over the last week of the season, Adley had a 50% hard hit rate and an average EV of 89.9 MPH. Those numbers absolutely dwarf what he was doing for months, when he was sitting at more like a 26% HH rate and an 85 MPH EV. Anecdotally, I can’t even remember the last time we saw Adley drive a ball into the left-center gap like he did multiple times against MIN. That’s Adley at his very best, and it was a sight for sore eyes.  I’m not sold that he’s 100% back, and I would still stick with McCann catching Burnes tomorrow (especially since using Adley as the DH is viable with a LHP starter in Ragans). But I sincerely doubt we can run the table without at least a few stretches of Adley being Adley — so I think this recent spurt is probably enough to warrant sending him out there every day still, in hopes that he really is getting it locked back in.

      Apparently, if you just waited to buy tickets, you could just basically go for free. Well done orioles.

      Well, they likely would not have drafted an overslot SS with the second round pick if they had taken another HS SS first overall, so would you rather have Henderson and Rutschman or just Witt?

      It’s my understanding that nationally televised games are usually blacked out. Consider a free trial subscription of Fubo if they are still offering it.

      Playoff Bullpen Usage

      By OsFanSinceThe80s · Posted

      The Orioles starters absolutely have to do better against the Royals. You can't ask this bullpen to pitch most of the game and expect to win. Right now I probably trust Coulombe the most and Soto (which I never would have guessed a couple weeks back). Perez has been really shaky recently to the point I'm wondering is he nursing a tired arm or minor injuey. Cano hasn't been good as well and O's really need him to get back into a groove. And Akin is usually trustworthy, but only starting the inning clean.
