GDT: 2&3/3 Toronto Blue Jays @ Baltimore Orioles (12:35 et)

[Laika]

Remember when Toronto traded for Stripling he was bad right away

and then replacement level in 2021

and now great this year

 

Mitchy White just needs some time.

[Laika]

Moreno in LF is huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge wish I could watch this game

[Omar]

Didn't I suggest that a while ago lmao

 

Yeah you did. When he first came up a few posters wanted to move him to the infield (2b). He has been taking grounders from the infield the past couple weeks and been shagging fly balls. The Gurriel injury may have spurred this. Can never have enough options in the post season.

[G-Snarls]

Mitch white trade a massive L for shatkins so far

 

If it's any consolation Maximo Castillo was pretty terrible too

 

2022 ERA 5.95, 37 K, 15 BB, opponent batting average 252

 

In Kansas City his ERA was 9.16 over 18.2 innings with 17 K to 10 BB

He is very athletic, has a cannon of an arm and may be on par with the fastest player on the team speed wise. Might not be as consistent with the speed, but he has it for sure. Kind of invites an attempt at an outfield, infield, catcher everyday utility type of player if it allows them to keep all 3 Cs, which they may be looking to do

[Omar]

Bradley Zimmer should be put in a case reading, Break Glass In Case Of Defensive Replacement (8th inning or later only).

[Omar]

That was strike three ump!

That does make me feel better lol. Maybe he figures it out.

I remember. Been saying, don’t be surprised if White/Pop end up being really good for us next year or 2024 even

[Solaxys]

Moreno at 2B now

[Solaxys]

I know these games don't matter but damn have our ABs from our regulars (aside from Vlad) looked questionable today.

[Grant77]

Does the lack of a Kikuchi sighting concern anyone else?

[G-Snarls]

Does the lack of a Kikuchi sighting concern anyone else?

 

Never

It's not a save situation yet.

You spoke too soon

[gruber92]

If Ross were to trade Moreno, I'll hunt him down and drag him through the streets by his eyebrows.

I think if he was willing to move Moreno, he would have been moved at the deadline already. He looks like a nice athletic versatile player, im exciting to see what role he plays next year

[Omar]

Zimmer got on base!

 

[Solaxys]

Otto came to play.

[Omar]

Lopez!!!

[EdwinsParrot]

Otto

[Stangstag]

Nice hitting by both Lopez and Moreno

[gruber92]

Otto could turn into a nice MLB contributer, nice approach.

[frizzer1]

Is lopez a legitimate prospect ?

[wilko]

Is lopez a legitimate prospect ?

 

Can he stick?

[Solaxys]

Moreno at 3B now lol

[Omar]

Is lopez a legitimate prospect ?

 

Espinal 2.0 with a bit better bat.

[Solaxys]

Moreno kinda having better ABs than Kirk right now lol

[Solaxys]

Zimmer ftw

[Omar]

Zimmer got on base!

 

 

Again!
