Also saw from (x) Eric_Birdland that the O's promoted 19 year-old Fernando Perguero from FCL to Norfolk.  He's 3 for 7 with 3k.  He skipped A, A+ and AA!

I think we can assume Peguero was moved that way because he’s seen as injury/shortage filler.

Peguero is most certainly just a fill in because his defense is solid. He's basically filling to role that Noelberth Romero filled earlier. It has nothing to do with prospects status and in fact, suggests the org does not consider him a prospect by an org filler.

I believe Morfe would become the youngest pitcher in MILB to pitch in A-ball this year .

Morfe has a chance to be a major climber this year. Grayson and DL were both 19 for there Delmarva debut. Then you look at their stats to see what it takes to be elite pitching prospect.

Over/Under TT Bowens getting 0.5 MLB AB?  

He's a dude that's worked his way through the system.  It would be nice to see hit a bit a Norfolk and possibly get a payday in the KBO or something someday.

The Orioles have clearly suspended the “must check certain boxes” protocol for promotions this year.

Honeycutt is the only one going to Aberdeen but hasn't been announced?  Just guessing?  Interesting that even O'Ferrall is starting at Delmarva.

Honeycutt probably starts at Delmarva too but he was the last one to sign.  Just the way they do things.

No kidding. I'm really surprised they pushed Arias and Sosa to Aberdeen when they've been really scuffling in Delmarva lately. Maybe its just until the 2024 guys are ready for Aberdeen.

I wonder how they'll get reps for three college catchers all on the same team.  That's why I was a little confused on why they drafted three college catchers in the first 8 rounds.  With a better mix of HS and college guys, you could assume they'd be at different levels and get more reps.  But these guys are all around the same age and level and will be taking away innings from each other.  Catchers don't play other positions (usually), and they typically need more time to develop defensively than other positions.  If you draft a bunch of shortstops together, they can split time at other positions like 2B and 3B.  If you draft a bunch of CF, they can split time at LF and RF.

    • This correct. https://trace.tennessee.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1426&context=jasm There are other factors, of course, certainly school has started and that has an impact. But I reckon the Orioles just puttering along isn't helping things. It'd be different if they were performing like they were to start the season. But the team currently looks like the 2015 Orioles (a .500 team) than the 2023 Orioles (or first half 2024 Orioles, for that matter). 
    • Yep. You know my thoughts on all of this and it is frustrating. Even not dealing guys like Mountcastle, Hays or O'Hearn this offseason to make space for guys was short sighted.  Besides Gunnar, Adley and Holliday, and Westburg to a lesser extent, none of the other prospects like Ortiz, Kjerstad, Cowser, Norby, Stowers, and Mayo were given everyday opportunities from the start. When they did play them, they have a nice game and instantly be back on the bench for days at a time. Cowser finally forced the issue by having that strong start and good defense, if he had struggled at all, Hays would still be in LF. Ortiz or Westburg should have been the starting 2B last year when they wasted money on Frazier. They came into this year with Cowser and Kjerstad needing everyday PAs, but instead brought their entire outfield back.  For a team that has been drafting college hitters mostly, it does seem weird that the offense stinks and they have to employ the likes of Jimenez, Rivera and Maton and the only prospects they had ready have really struggled, one of which Mayo is getting the backup experience. 
    • Went through Trevor Rogers MiLB Statcast, and he averaging 89.7mph on his 4 seamer and 89.2 on his sinker. Out of the 100 pitches, 61 were either a 4 seamer or a sinker. Of those, 18 were over 90mph (30%). I don't know, it is incredibly discouraging that we are now seeing him not even average 90mph whereas before the trade he was 92-92.5mph on average. Where did that 2+mph go? Is it entirely because of some supposed mechanics they're trying to implement to get him to *gain* his velocity back? Or is there another injury and/or dead arm.  
    • I’m pretty happy with the A+/A pitchers.   In addition to the pitchers who I think are competitive for POY, there are some younger guys whose numbers or innings don’t put them in position for this award, but who have long term potential.  I don’t think anyone I listed has a super high ceiling but I do think some of them could be back of rotation starters or relievers on a future O’s team.  
    • You aren’t wrong but most tickets are sold before the season, so some of this doesn’t matter. In season sales are probably hurt some though.
    • And btw, I’m not saying you try to field a team that is only made of players 25 years old or younger…you need some vets…but get good ones. If you are going to block these kids, who are really talented, block them with players that are actual difference makers.    I know they were hamstrung by Angelos and that hurt obviously but you could have done more with what you had imo.
