If this thread was on the correct board, this never would have happened

Can someone please get rid of this guy? Hasn’t he violated some rules or something? Not sure I remember another poster making this board this unenjoyable.

You have to give up something of quality to get quality. Absolutely Ortiz would be a plus defender at 2B and would be doing well "IF" the Orioles would have given him that chance. I think the Orioles

He got 4 fastballs in a row.  95,95,95, 94(boom).  Was a little surprised.  I guess folks are going to test him until he gets hot again.  

Sounds like Rutschman sequencing sometimes. lol

Call him up

I think he needs a lengthy period of being hot.  The kind of streak where everyone is calling for his promotion and it's unfair that Holliday is still in AAA and he's not being challenged.  I would think the O's are monitoring how he handles things like high 90's fastballs and breaking pitches.  I would be surprised if he's up before the All Star break.

Why?  Views. Gotta root for the staff here. 

Aguably, Holliday is our most realistic and debatable topic. I think Elias leaves him down for another 30-45 days. He should be facing 100 mph velocity inside with the pitching machine until he gets blisters. Well maybe not blisters. Don’t want him having to do the cure.

Since the thread is still here, I'll post it here. This is from Tides PR after tonight's game, a little recap of recent AAA work. 

"In today's (6/1/24) loss, Jackson Holliday went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and two runs...he extended his hitting streak to nine games, which ties a career long he set in 2023, while also extending his on base streak to 16 games...Holliday’s hitting streak is tied for the second-longest active streak in the International League, while his on-base streak is tied for seventh...since the start of his on-base streak on May 15 (Game 2) against Lehigh Valley, Holliday is batting .278 (17-for-61) with 18 runs, five doubles, three home runs, nine RBI and 15 walks."

      Why not Chayce McDermott?

      You think we are signing Burnes?

      Oh, I thought he was talking about the rotation right now.

      Would the Orioles consider Trevor Bauer ?

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      No. Better yet ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!  We do we need to take on anything associated with him or take on that kind of pr hit and risk? I hope he gets a shot at redemption … somewhere else. Why can’t we just acquire/trade for a current MLB pitcher who is already good and doesn’t come with baggage? Is that too much to ask?

      2024 Prospect Power Rankings

      By Tony-OH · Posted

      My big issue with him besides the zero defensive value is he's batting .227 and has only 5 doubles which tells me he's probably a mistake hitter. That's a big red flag for me as well when I look at stats, especially lower level guys. Guys with decent home run numbers and low 2B numbers typically are guys who feast on those middle-middle pitches, but are not making consistent hard contact to get those 2B numbers up. Now I'm going off memory here and haven't really watched him a ton this year running, but he's pretty dang slow from what I remember. So now we have a short, slow, 1B/DH who has some ability to make decent swing decisions on Low-A hitters, but hits for a low average and doesn't show a lot of extra base power. So is he a guy that you perhaps follow to see if he's a guy that develops more game power and allows his bat to carry him up the chain? Perhaps. But I just don't know what he would be in the majors besides a right-handed DH if he develops more power. How many are those are now in the game? I mean, perhaps his absolute upside is a Yermín Mercedes type, but I imagine if he is a late bloomer guy who suddenly starts to rake at the upper levels, it will probably be for his 2nd or 3rd organization as those guys typically bounce around.

      2024 Prospect Power Rankings

      By CaptainRedbeard · Posted

      Thanks for sharing all of the formula / data prospect trackers, I don’t have the patience to follow them on Twitter so I appreciate the updates here. I do put value in that when projecting offense and they do have data that we don’t have.  RZNJ and Tony have a good point that the robo scout types are generally not going to consider defense (at least not fully), and as everyone knows that’s a massive difference in value for C v. 1B/DH. So for Mordan I’d only really put weight on the robo scout if it said he was a good prospect even as solely a 1B, and I’m guessing he’s not.  I am curious to track development of C like Willems and Mordan because I think any C in the system behind Basallo are prime trade chips. If Mordan has good offensive data but bad defense, seems like a nice guy to try to sell another team on at the trade deadline.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By RVAOsFan · Posted

      I am curious to see what happens with the Astros and Verlander.  Looks like they may be heating up making it irrelevant but if they end up being a seller and he shows he is healthy before the deadline I think Verlander is the guy Elias targets.  I think with our new ownership and low payroll no reason we cannot take on the remainder of that contract and he could be the perfect replacement for Bradish.
