4/9 @ Boston

[Tony-OH]

I like Adley, and think he's a very good hitter with getting on base. BUUTTT, I'm starting to have concerns over his lack of power.

He starting to become Joe Mauer.

Love Santander but when this lineup is where it needs to be he should be hitting 5-6.

Just got a popup that O's announce Bradish will be starting rehab in High-A soon. Sorry if this is already known.

[Tony-OH]

Burnes at just 69 pitched through 5, so hopefully he can get us 7 today to limit the bullpen need. But we need runs.

He did only have the one MVP.

The first ballot Hall of Famer?

Mauer is in the Hall of Fame.

I think we'd all take that.

I think the shadows are really working to the pitchers’ advantage now.   And Burnes knows how to work it.

I don't know if Adley is going to hit .350 like Mauer did.

My only thought is that to produce power he may be sacrificing contact. I’m fine with Realmuto type numbers.

The point is not that Adley is a bad player, which is EXACTLY why I said he's very good hitter, but I think we all expected more power.

Might want to offer Henderson a big contract extension while he's doing his Hays impression for 8 games in a row.

Sorry I am also in the office at work and frequently have to get up to talk to other people lol

The more I see of Burnes, the more I want to give him the conteact he wants. Especially with how durable and reliable he is. I can't say I have the same confidence in how durable and healthy we will be able to keep Grayson because Rodriguez's mechanics are kind violent to provide his 97MPH all game long.
