Cesar who? Andino is a real nice surprise right now, and I hope it lasts a while.

Go O's!

Smart Baseball... don't know if they sent him or if that was his choice.

If it was his choice, he just saved a DP situation and put himself in scoring position.... which obviously pays off.

Terrific baseball decision if that was his choice.

I'm stuck at work and, of course, sneaking off every few minutes to check the game thread...

Status/score update, por favor? How's Guthrie doing with pitch count now?

O's are winning 4-0. Roberts hit a two-run single for our last two runs.

Guthrie's pitch count is 48 through two innings. He threw over thirty in his first inning because they fouled off a ton of pitches, but he's looking pretty good.

4-0 Birds, the bats are hot

Guthrie has a high pitch count through 2 but is looking great regardless. Only 1 walk

MLB.com says Jones "grounded into a force out- right fielder murhpy to ss". How the heck do you ground out to the right fielder? I must be old, in my youth a ground ball to the right fielder was called a single. :D

He didn't ground out...it was a fly ball that the RF dropped, but got the force at Roberts on second.

I guess MLB.com just doesn't have a code for that kind of play.

They scored three runs and didn't leave a man in scoring position. Unfortunate that the heart of our lineup couldn't tack on a couple more but I wouldn't call it a letdown.

Sorry, I meant to say the end of the inning. Not the entire inning.

I guess I just expect 4 hits everytime through the top of the lineup. :D

      Why not market Mateo as a SS to a Contender like the LAD/CLEV for an arm for this season?

      By Il BuonO · Posted

      Lol, those who know me will attest to the fact that I'm the guy who walks outta the house without something I need. Same as not remembering the OP and the premise. 🤣 And we're in agreement there. Mateo is a good piece is and I often think the same with regards to Mullins or Hays. These are not guys around whom to build your team but can be useful in trade packaged with a prospect who is either blocked positionally (Norby) or who they just don't see as productive ML players (Stowers).  And yes, y'all those are suppositions, so save the angry responses, they're just examples. Mullins and Hays are nice role guys and getting older. They can help a contender, but they're never going to headline a deal in the same way Mateo won't.  Agree about Mateo getting on base to have a chance to wreak havoc, but I think especially with Mateo a contender will value his defense, including his versatility and positional value. Maybe a package for a TOR that includes one or more of these pieces packaged with Povich and Norby/Stowers, Basallo? gets the team that guy who DOES move the needle and steps in for the loss of Bradish. For now....another move to solidify the pen probably needs to be addressed.

      Gunnar vs. Coby Mayo at the same place in time

      By Malike · Posted

      If Gunnar were in AAA at 22 he would have 30 HRs in 48 games with an OPS of 2.000

      By interloper · Posted

      Literally don't care about the walks. Cowser walked a lot - how did his .400+ AAA OBP translate to the majors?  All I want to see is XBH from Holliday. We know he can work a walk on crappy AAA pitching. Once he hits for more consistent power, we'll know he's ready.

      I sort of don't get Elias's plan

      By Malike · Posted

      If Elias put his glasses on to see the future, I doubt he'd trade for Burnes knowing 3/5ths of the rotation would need TJS.

      Coby Mayo in AAA this year: 48 games .301/.370/.617/1.048 13 2B, 2 3B, 15 HR 20 BB, 56 K 41 RBI Gunnar Henderson in his AAA career: 65 games .288/.390/.504/.894 13 2B, 4 3B, 11 HR 38 BB, 78 K 38 RBI It's well past time to call Coby up

      I'm not sure if you just don't like him and are being intentional but it's Irvin, not Irwin. Ben McDonald calls him Irving. It's just Irvin.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By CaptainRedbeard · Posted

      This is along the lines of what I was thinking. DeLeon, Bradfield and McDermott are painful to part with but I think you need about 3 prospects that will hurt like that on top of Kjerstad and Norby. And I think the White Sox will want 2 good pitching prospects in that type of deal.  I’d obviously prefer to give up some lesser pitching prospects, but the only pitching prospects I’m not all that fond of and think we could deal as a “sell high” are Johnson and Baumeister. And their value is not high enough to move the needle that much. I’d do that deal you proposed and I think the White Sox do too, or at least they won’t get a better offer than that.  Have Suarez piggyback Crochet, and keep Crochet around 3-4 IP, 50-60 pitches per start until September when you stretch him back out. And maybe you can plug in Povich or Irvin for some spot starts when there aren’t off days to give Crochet 5 days rest when you can, or skip some starts when you can if he needs it.
