Hear me out here. If they weren’t lying about service time being an issue, Holliday should be up for the Boston series w/ all righties. Urias/Kemp better heed this. Urias 0-season and an error. 
 

What are the exact details of a Holliday call up IF they ARE IN FACT manipulating service time although I think he win or get top 2 in ROY making the point moot— Can someone elaborate on details of a call up?

Anything, other than purely offensive/trashy, that gets 15 neg rep votes cracks me up enough to get an up vote!

I have no idea if it was a troll job. If so, it worked. If not, it's funny because we all know more or less what's been on this board for months and I guess you don't. Either way, with 17 posts in almost as many years, I chalk this up to not being an internet message board guy and not quite understanding what goes on here.

Ban this user. What an idiotic thread title. Ban him.

If they banned everyone for idiotic posts there would be about 12 members left on the board and I probably wouldn't be one of them.

For 2024, or combined?  He had 91 last year.  If you’re talking total, he’ll be at 200 by the last week of April.   I really doubt we will see him then.  Anyway, I don’t think there’s a particular threshold for at bats in Norfolk.  They’ll be watching his overall performance and the two specific things they mentioned - comfort at 2B and performance/opportunities vs. LHP.

Combined.

Why do we need that???

Could be wrong, but I think the thought is we don't want Holliday to win ROY or he gets credit for the full year of service.  It would also mean a first round pick though so I don't know.

    • Mullins is in the lineup today. It was just posted.
    • Mike Elias has irritated Adley Rutschman in all 3 of his MLB seasons trying to extract "more retained value" for his boss's bottom line, and wonders why Adley isn't excited to sign away club options on his entire career.    Gunnar Henderson too. It might be a nice gesture to work Basallo in a little earlier next year because adjusting to MLB competition is very hard. James McCann is pretty cool, and I hope he can find more opportunity to further his career next season than playing backup for the league's best starter. EBJ isn't as promising as Basallo, but he is good enough to have a fair chance for 2026 Rookie of the Year in the final season of this CBA, especially with the counting stats boost the 2026 Orioles lineup will give. After that who knows what the rules will be, but definitely top athletes will love geeks figuring stuff out to determine how their careers should progress.
    • Yes, he was unavailable for last night's game because of neck discomfort.
    • I am pretty sure we are in with a win and Mariners loss.  I have seen 2 Mariners losses because if we have to go up against Astros in head to head, if Mariners win division but that doesn’t make sense since a loss gives them 76 which we can’t get too.   The # 1 WC depends on if the West is won by the Mariners or Astros but it most likely is 3 if one of the wins is vs the Tigers or Twins. 
    • Now that Roy is hopeful, there is no hope. The curse is in.
    • Right. 1. Rivera consistently plays over Mayo.  Whether justified or not, he’s clearly higher in the pecking order right now. You don’t cut the second-string player to keep the third-string player.  (Obviously Mayo will be the better long term player and has the better pedigree but we’re talking specifically about the next two weeks). 2. Mayo has an option and Rivera doesn’t. Rivera provides depth going into next year, provides some flexibility to trade Urias if the right offer presents itself, and does several things well as a role player (even if perceived by fans with stigma of waiver wire scrub).
    • I agree. Nothing to lose by trying to claim him.
