Lost in the insane & wild comeback is Stowers PH lead off single in the bottom of the 9th. Was refreshing to see someone simply playing to the scoreboard and looking to hit a single vs attempting

He did nothing this series but show he should starting at least 3+ times a week until he proves otherwise.

I 100% agree Stowers should be on a big league roster.  I would love for it to be in Baltimore,  but he has nothing more to prove at this level. 

And I am so sorry for the loss of your son.  That is heartbreaking.  I'm cheering for Kyle along with you.

Stowers is one of the reasons why I wanted O'Hearn or Santander moved this offseason for prospects or a quality relief pitcher.

Elias likes to hoards talent. That's good from an organization standpoint, but it hurts legitimate major league prospects from breaking into the majors when they are ready.

Instead of moving Hays or Santander or O'Hearn this offseason for legitimate lower level pitching prospects or a reliever, he's short a quality reliever and lower level pitching prospects. 

Instead, he's got an absolute logjam in AAA but he's playing lesser players like O'Hearn in RF or Kemp at 2B (though I understand why Holliday and Mayo are in the minors).

He's now the Tides career HR leader with 43. Tied and took the lead from Christian Walker tonight!

 

Christian Walker is an interesting comp for Stowers.   He’s had a very productive career despite not really getting a full time gig in the majors until he was 28 years old.  Hopefully Stowers won’t have to wait quite that long, but he’s 26 now and still waiting.

I feel for guys like Stowers. He deserves a chance to see if he can do it at the MLB level and he's stuck in an org with not much room to give him that chance.

He's got that "Oh no...I get to sit on the bench for a couple of weeks" look on his face.

"Ugh, I'm gonna have to pack this suitcase again in 48 hours when they recall Hays..."

That's funny, but I bet he's happy to cash that MLB check for a few days if that's all he's here for.

      I disagree Mayo is one of the reasons the Orioles have not hit well.  Emmanuel Rivera, who has hit well with an .879 OPS since he joined the O's, has gotten the playing time over Mayo.

      I was sort taking that as a fait accompli. Signing expensive long-term free agent deals for one dimensional sluggers heading into their 30s definitely does not seem like Elias's style, especially when an extra high draft pick (and accompanying extra bonus pool money) is the reward for not doing so.

      The Defense Thread, 2024

      By Frobby · Posted

      Game 153, Sept. 19 Lots of notable defensive plays today.   Kjerstad made two excellent catches, one going back and towards the RCF alley that (per Kevin Brown) was a 50% probability catch, and another going back to the wall near the corner and making the catch at close to full speed.   Holliday snared a line drive at the top of his leap, and also made a nice backhand running catch of a soft fly into medium RF. Mullins made a diving catch in the 7th on a sinking liner that he got a great jump on.   In the 9th, with runners on 1st and 2nd, Heliot hit a liner in the RCF gap that carried much further than it first appeared it would.   Mullins and Slater dove for it simultaneously and Slater actually gloved it for a second before it popped out while Slater landed on Mullins.  Luckily, the two base runners totally misread the play, and after Slater quickly scrambled to his feet and threw the ball in, the runner originally on 2B scored but the runner on 1st only advanced to 2B, and the batter had to stop at first.  The O’s were able to keep any further runs from scoring. One thing I’ve noticed about Manny Rivera is that he’s very slow charging bunts and slow rollers/choppers. He handled one bunt and one chopper in front of him today and both times the runner beat his throw rather easily, something that has happened a lot when Rivera has manned 3B.   I’m more than ready to have Urias -and/or Westburg back at the hot corner.

      Don’t know what happened to him on here but I did meet him and some others from The Sun forums at the park on Matt Wieters first game as an Oriole. If I recall correctly his name was Patrick.  He seemed like a good dude but he did have his face painted and was wearing those big hulk hands…which did strike me as a little odd for a grown man but to each his own.

      Is it just me or did they sound the HR / walk-off siren before the ball actually went out?
