This seems like a good day for a general DSL check-in.
The DSL Orioles Orange team lost today but is 14-7 overall. Going into today's play, they were in first place in the DSL Northwest Division and had the 5th best record of any DSL team. They were 15th of 51 DSL team at 6.20 runs per game, and 14th in fewest runs allowed per game at 4.80. So, nicely above average in both respects.
DSL Orioles Black won today to raise their record to 8-12. They are a micron ahead of Orange a
The team over performed a bit last season and the injuries have taken their toll on the roster. Considering everything that’s happened this year the O’s record is representative of the quality of their defense play.
If this season happened last year and last season this year it would seem like the natural progression of the club. But they raised the bar winning 101 games in 2023 and it’s made the second half of this season tough to watch.
That said Elias didn’t do enough to build the bullpen knowing Bautista won’t be back until 2025. Getting Kimbrel wasn’t enough to account for Bautista’s impact. And Eflin has been great, but the early returns on Trevor Rogers aren’t good especially when Norby would be an everyday player for the O’s right now.
