Rogers has two years of control. The book is far, far from closed on this trade. Obviously does not look good so far.

Lol Povich. He has been as bad as Rogers.

I agree Stowers and Norby have some value despite not fitting in our plans but we didn't have a lot of leverage and it's impossible to know what else we could have gotten. Bottom line, they were not elite prospects. 

 

This. 

It would be disingenuous not to acknowledge that the Orioles were hoping that Rogers could be an upgrade for the back end of the rotation this year and that has not worked out. That said, I think they saw some things that Rogers can do that they like. He has shown some ability as a starter albeit not with any kind of consistency. Realistically where are Stower and Norby playing on this team long term? Hell, how much would they play even now with all the injuries? It's pretty easy for the Marlins to run them out there and let them have at it, they are not in a playoff race. 

It could turn out to be a bad trade but I think we wait at least until some point next year to pass a final judgement. By then we should know more about what Norby and Stowers are and we should know if Rogers brings anything to the table.

Putting any stock into his start tonight, his first day with a new team, a new catcher and not having any time with the pitching coaches is silly. Give him a few turns through the order, then blow you

So you're just completely discounting the possibility that the O's are working on specific things with him and told him to ignore results that first start? I'm not sure why you would knowing what we k

The Trevor Rogers outrage on here is hilarious and over the top.

Norby is playing 2B nearly everyday and is hitting .313 according to ESPNs Saturday box score. I guess I feel like that would he welcome considering Holliday is hitting .160. So if he were here there’s no reason he shouldn’t be playing 2B. Stowers was extra …but after a brutal start over there he’s actually gotten the average around .210. I’m not see he’s a keeper but this seems a lot for a project type back end starter.

Rogers was a former AS that we were hoping that our pitching lab/analytics could tap into. Plus begin LH at OPACY. 

Ironically, Irvin will be back too it looks like. Irvin the guy Rogers was supposed to replace. 

The Rogers trade isn’t that big of a deal because we Burnes, Eflin, and Suarez for the playoffs. We’ll see if we need a game 4 SP. 

Norby was never going to play here. We all can still root for him though.

And you could have done better than Rogers for those two...that is my main problem with the trade. Norby's OBP is 377!

wait til the league adjusts and they slump, and all on the Marlin forums tell you how bad they are. In case, I wish them future success.

According to cot's he had 3 years and 94 days at the beginning of the year.  I believe this was the first time he was optioned this year, so even if he stays in the minors the rest of the year, he'll have way more days than needed for his 4th year of service time.

I didn’t think prior seasons could be added to “complete” a full year - not for purposes of free agency, anyway.  Unless Wikipedia is wrong (could be!):

“If a player is on the major league roster for 171 or fewer days, they do not earn a year of service time, and partial years cannot be combined.”

I see this sentiment everywhere…what evidence do you have this is true?  Do you think Elias took a worse deal?  Do you these 2 were highly sought after?

For the sake of accuracy, Norby has started 9 times at 3B and 2 times at 2B.  It’s unclear where they see his future but they did switch him to 3B after the trade.  It’s unclear if they feel he’s not strong at 2B or whether it’s just a better fit for them.    He certainly looks good so far.

There is no way to know if Elias could have done better. He did say the price of pitching went up drastically between the Eflin and Rogers trades. It may turn out to be a bad trade but we will never know what the other options were.

If Norby were here playing everyday w Holliday on the bench or in AAA, the board would be melting down.

      In Grich’s case, I think his OBP skills weren’t appreciated at the time.  He was a .266 lifetime hitter in an era when that was maybe 10 points above average, but his .371 OBP was more like 45-50 points above average.  But OBP just wasn’t very valued at the time.

      We don’t have a current combo that is ideal. You have to go with the best possible grouping you have.

      Yep, we're in agreement on the 70 rWAR threshold.  A championship would help Manny's cause, though I'm not sure if that's in the cards for him in the near future.  He needs a big moment on a big stage, too....as silly as that sounds, I do believe it matters in the eyes of some voters. Not to derail, but Whitaker is a guy that belongs in the HoF, too.  I'm not sure why Grich never got serious consideration.

      I’ve always felt that 70 rWAR was the line between having to justify why someone shouldn’t be in the HOF versus justifying why they should.  In other words, if you’re over 70, there needs to be a reason for you NOT to be in.  There are 70 position players over 70 WAR, and the only ones not in are Bonds, Pujols (not yet eligible), Trout (not yet eligible), Rose, Bill Dahlen, Lou Whitaker, Raffy Palmeiro, Bobby Grich, and Carlos Beltran.  Really, only Dahlen, Whitaker and Grich have no obvious reason why they’re not in.  And I wouldn’t bet against Beltran getting in eventually.  He’s gotten  46% and 57% of the ballots his first two tries.

      Recency bias: "Is a common distorting effect within systems of performance appraisal. It refers to the appraiser assessing employee performance, not on work undertaken across the full performance management cycle, but only on recent events or activities that can be readily recalled. Recency bias can be countered by keeping a record of appraisee performance over the full period of work that is being appraised." https://www.oxfordreference.com/display/10.1093/oi/authority.20110803100407676

      You're right, I shouldn't assume he's a hole. More of an unknown (11 career AB). Still, an outfield of Slater, one unknown, and one hole isn't exactly ideal. I think Mountcastle 1B/Santander RF is pretty clearly preferable to Santander 1B/Kjerstad RF vs LHP when you include defense.

      I forget which game it was (Fri or Sat) but he also pulled a ball foul down the LF line that nearly snuck inside the pole. So he was close to having 2 HRs in the series
