Anytime you see them take a guy and promote him to a level he has no business being at (Peguero, Noelberth Romero, Angel Tejada, etc) it generally means they don’t consider them to be a real prospect

Draft:  done and signed.  How long is new hire orientation? Trade deadline:  done and thinned out AAA FCL season: done  Gotta think promotions should be happening soon.

I'm glad to see they didn't move a bunch of Bowie guys up. I'd rather lose with the 4A guys and make the Bowie guys earn a promotion. Numbers don't look that good from guys I thought would be better.

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 is the kind of thing that drives me crazy

      By Spy Fox · Posted

      My current confusion is that I thought Mayo would be in that first category, but it has been the second. I guess it shows what they think of his defense, which I get, but… the Mountcastle and Urias injuries should have been enough to bump Mayo to everyday status. Instead we are giving Eloy all this time, even though Mayo seems like a higher upside play.

      By ChuckS · Posted

      I seem to recall Eloy being in there against quite a few righties of late  He also has reverse splits over his career, so using him as a strict platoon guy against LHP makes little sense.  May be reading too much into the L/R thing when we are fielding everyday lineups with Rivera, Jimenez, and Slater.  We just need better players.  Kjerstad has shown the ability to hit both lefties and righties in the minors.

      Yep. In the offseason, I said they had to trade one of Mateo or Urias and 2 of Hays, Mountcastle, Santander, OHearn, Mullins or Santander.    If you do that, are you really any worse off right now?  Maybe if Santander was traded but it depends on what you got back and how the replacements filled in for him. The slugging and power is great but average at best defense and a 308 OBP isn’t tough to replace. This team holding onto so many mediocre vet guys all in the name of “depth” just doesn’t sit well with me. I think it has hurt the team.    You can always acquire depth. Depth is in abundance. Talent is not. You don’t forgo talent for depth.

      Take one for the team Adley

      By LGOrioles · Posted

      Completely fair. I just think some people were hyped up about Adley’s power surge the first few months even though there were some issues under the hood. Not to this extent, but there were some problems.

      This is going to be even more of a concern for 2025 in my opinion.   There's really not a lot to pull from in the minors, most likely losing Santander and Burnes plus some.   Kjerstad is a question mark because he's never been given an opportunity to get a months worth of AB's because of usage and injuries.   I'm just doom and gloom right now because the last couple of months have been really disappointing. It's going to take some decent money this off season to address some of the needs, and I'm hoping ownership will be willing. I'm also hoping Mr Elias will be willing to rely on outside talent that's a bit better than the stop gaps that we've seen so far.

      Orioles attendance 2024

      By LookitsPuck · Posted

      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.
