Stay hot kid!

2 for 3 3B 2R tonight 

13th in the league in OPS.  9th in average.    He keeps on gaining.   .844 OPS in May.  Over 1.000 so far in June.   I don’t mind him putting up numbers in the Carolina league but he might soon be deserving of a Basallo type of promotion last year.   Needs a position (2B/SS/CF) but offensively I’d like to see him fast tracked.

He may not be big but he’s strong enough.  He hits homers from the left side.  He hits homers from the right side.  He can even go oppo from either side.  If you hit we will find you a position.

 

Nice to see the oppo power there. That is one of things I always look for when I'm trying to judge game power. A lot of guys have pull power, but at the upper levels pitchers will know that and keep pitching them away. No that was hard to see whether that ball was middle-middle or slightly away due to the camera angle, but either way, that was a very nice job of going oppo over the fence.

      2024 Delmarva Shorebirds

      By maybenxtyr · Posted

      Another Shorebirds player that I think will start getting some attention is Aneudis Mordan. I don't think he will have the arm to stay at catcher, but he looks decent at 1B too.   He just turned 20 a few ago. He may not rise like SB but there's definitely something there with his bat.

      Small sample size (20 IP) but this favorite stat here -- K/H, 33/5 -- is otherworldly even for high-end relievers. Back in the day (e.g., 1987, peak Tom Henke at 128/62) when I first started noticing it, the best of the best were at around K/H = 2.0. This sample, 33/5, is 6.6. For probably the closest comparable context, last year the Mountain had a historic 110/30, or 3.7 (in 61 IP).

      I 100% agree with you about Juan Rojas. I was at a Shorebirds game last weekend when him and Povich were starting. I want to say Cano pitched the same night, and it had me thinking about how great that trade is looking for Baltimore. He struck out 7 or 8 that night.

      Heston Kjerstad 2024

      If you honestly think Silent J is destined to have a 30ish bWAR career with multiple AS appearances and SSs don't you want to keep him? He's inexpensive right now. His value, if you believe that you are likely to get that level of production, is extremely high. Now, I see your point if he's more comparable to Jay Gibbons or Luke Scott. I think the listed comps are a bit of a stretch on both sides of his likely career outcome.  FWIW

      Skubal trade..Kjerstad, Mountcastle, McDermott and Bradfield?

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      Well depending on other moves, you still may have Stowers and/or Norby and of course Holliday.

      By Fiver6565 · Posted

      I think for me this specific deal is harder because of Mountie and Kjerstad. Bradfield I don’t care about one bit honestly, and McD I really don’t have a good feel for, other than he’s one of the very few actual prospects at the upper levels for us (pitching wise).    Feels like if we traded Mountie it would help free up at bats for Kjerstad, but that won’t matter if they are both in the deal. Yes we have Mayo but depth then becomes an issue a little bit.  Like I said, glad it’s not my call to make!

      Are the Tigers going to give up on Torkelson? Seems like Mounty wouldn't be the ML guy they'd want. As it is now we really don't have a long term option at 1B other than Mounty himself anyway. When 2027 rolls around that dust will have settled. Maybe Mayo? If I were to guess the player the Tigers would target, it'd be Westburg. But I think he has entrenched himself to the point he's not going anywhere. Perhaps Kjerstad/McDermott/Norby/Bradfield would get it done? That may seem light, but it is 2 guys in the top 100 and 2 guys that are fringe top 100. Bradfield presents the same problem though. I think the Orioles really view Cowser as the long term LF, to eventually replace Hays. Mullins probably isn't getting an extension. CF is still mostly a mystery long term without Bradfield.
