I can’t remember his name, but a guy used to post here a lot about the minor league guys, and the draft, and he was an expert, and by golly, the Orioles hired him!

So he stopped posting, rats.

Maybe you can get a job, too!

But don't stop posting…

Yes, absolutely. 

Thank you @86this for filling on once again and doing an amazing job or keep our conversations organized and controlled during all three days of the draft! 

I especially appreciate you this year because I was offline for a good bit of the three days of the draft. You made the board and our community a better place!

He might be talking about Luke. Stotle works in scouting but I don’t think for the Orioles. Luke works directly with the Os.

Luke’s title with the O’s is Scouting Analyst Consultant.

Stotle is a lawyer and also does some scouting, not for the O’s.

    • Don't worry, they'll give you just enough optimism to get out of shrug mode before the Yankees series, then disappoint you. 🙂
    • I think, the tools are there. The pedigree is there. He is young. We are going to find out over the next 18 months what kind of "head" he has. Like all Oriole youngsters, I hope he can produce equal to his hype. But I think/hope he will have to earn his place starting with next spring. He will set the narrative and the Orioles control his future unless he is traded. IMO, he has a lot of work to do to earn what circumstance has presented this year..
    • I'm in shrug-mode for the rest of the season. It's just, we'll see how it shakes out at this point. The Orioles aren't a very good or healthy team right now, so... that's it! 
    • Hoping to get one game at this rate. 
    • The Tigers are on a roll, and an example of how seasons can turn on a dime in unexpected ways. In mid August they were 55-63, 8 games under .500 which was close to a season worst. But after a 20-9 stretch, they now have a solid chance of posting their first winning season in 8 years, and an outside chance of reaching the postseason for the first time since we beat them in the 2014 ALDS. They are 75-72 and 3.5 games behind Minnesota for the last WC spot.  Pitching is the main reason why, even after trading some arms at the deadline. They are 4th in MLB in ERA, have the likely Cy Young winner in Tarik Skubal, and a pretty good bullpen. Their offense has been average, led by All Star Riley Greene. Kerry Carpenter has also been excellent-- he missed most of the season with a back issue, but is playing now and playing well. We currently have TBDs tonight and tomorrow because the Tigers used openers twice last weekend vs the A's. The bulk followers of those games are both rookies who have been effective in limited innings, some as a SP some as a RP. Then, we likely face another rookie Sunday, but one who has been more entrenched in Detroit's rotation. Looking at those games, here's my best guess:  Eflin vs Opener/LHP Brant Hurter? (4-1, 3.00 ERA, 33 IP) Hurter threw 5.1 IP, 1 ER, 3 K as a follower last weekend Burnes vs Opener/RHP Ty Madden? (1-0, 2.57 ERA, 14 IP) Madden threw 5 IP, 1 ER, 7 K as a follower last weekend Povich vs RHP Keider Montero (5-6, 4.88 ERA, 83 IP) Montero threw a complete game, 3-hit shutout against Colorado on Tuesday A lot of the Tigers hot run has come against cellar dwellers. In their 20-9 stretch, they're 1-2 in series against current playoff teams. (Beat NYY, lost to CHC and SDP.) Hopefully we can stamp out some of their momentum, but facing three straight rookie SPs who are running hot lately is a bit spooky. 
    • One of the unique and weird things about Clutch Cargo was it entirely animated except that the mouths were video of actual moving human mouths.   It made for a very strange look.
