Again I respect your affinity for the player. But to answer your question - No, I would not want Norby on the roster in McKenna's place. I don't see how that is a good use of a prospect's value and development to use them as the 26th man. Ideally you want guys you believe have talent to play. I believe that Norby has a future as a big leaguer and has earned a call up. I just don't see that place being here, given how stacked this lineup is and will be for years to come. I think it makes more sense to use Norby as a trade chip for a piece that we will need on the big league team to help us complete the championship picture puzzle (like say an effective reliever). Lastly, I think Kjerstad is not going to rot the bench for long. There is really no place for him to play now and they will likely send him back to AAA soon. However, next season when Santander is gone and possibly O'Hearn is not here. That is when Kjerstad will have a spot opened up for him. There is also, the possibility that he may be traded around the deadline as well. -
I was responding to this. “that is, if a reliever only faces one batter but that ends the inning, then he can be replaced. Is that not correct?“ -

Top baseball contracts have become Global Thermonuclear Finance, so for the Clubs it is just a question of do you want players of this caliber at FA prices at all. The Yankees put contract structures like that even on Aaron Hicks and DJ LeMahieu level players. So far Elias is following the maxim that The only way to win is not to play. -

It would be nice to know what defensive tool/site the analytics department uses. We’ll see with McKenna. Options are out there. -

Urias is pretty broken. I guess he deserves some time to get it together. But the clock’s ticking. Don’t really fault Roy for salivating at a couple AAA infielders who are doing well. -

I can see the Orioles being gun shy due to Holliday's struggles. The thing is, maybe 1 in 5 top prospects come into the majors and hit right away. The O's have so many guys on the cusp try them all. One is bound to start off hot. -

I didn't think the Oriole offense exactly lit it up last night...and who is to say Mayo or Norby COULDN'T have made the plays too..
