Walks

Is it my imagination or did our minor league starters issue a ton of walks.  Control seems to be an issue.   Armbruester, Tavera, and McDermott are some examples.  Kind of concerning for the future.

Norfolk: 4.4 BB/9, 9th highest of 20 teams in the Internation League (4.3 league average)

Bowie: 3.8 BB/9, 4th highest of 12 teams in the Eastern League (3.7 league average)

Aberdeen: 5.2 BB/9, highest in the South Atlantic League (4.2 league average)

Delmarva: 4.5 BB/9, 3rd highest of 12 teams in the Carolina League (4.3 league average)

So yes, the Orioles affiliates were worse than average in BB/9 at every full season level, though only Aberdeen was way off the league average.

By the way, notice how league average BB/9 trends down as you get to higher levels of the minors, until you get to AAA and the robo-umps.   Just shows you how much difference those robo-umps make.
