@acekingspades Bradfield 5 years older than Griffin barely made it to AAA, first rounder, Honeycutt 3 years older than Griffin same draft same round 3 levels below. Adley, Kjerstad, Holliday drafted 1st, 2nd, 1st overall haven’t lived up to it. Hopefully George, Irish, and Aloy are real deal.

Are we reaching a point where we can say the Orioles prospects of the "#1 farm system" simply didn't pan out as well as they were projected? Still early, but that's my worry right now. #birdland

@BAL_Os_funk I’ve watched Beavers a ton, besides the can’t catch the ball in the sun, he always gets bad jumps, doesn’t cover much ground and below average arm. When you’re that bad, you gotta mash HRs and RBIs. Ward/O’Neill are bad. Cowser great jumps and arm but has to hit.

I’m also not convinced the guys they have playing the outfield are outfielders

@Sports_Guy52 @bmore_sports8 Without a doubt they do, no jump, slow as turd

@bmore_sports8 I feel like majority LF in the league prob make that play.

Dylan Beavers looked like he was running on sand trying to catch that ball.

@RBobrick @Orioles He does make those catches and yeah he’d be better in LF, almost won a gold glove in LF. But last year he led the team in range, arm strength, outfield assists. He’s way better than Ward, O’Neill, and Beavers. Team doesn’t have much options.

@MojoTilty @Orioles bullshit.. he is ass at center

FINAL: Pirates 3, Orioles 2

@ThirstRoundPick I’ve watched Beavers play a dozen games in person, he has no feel for the position, no range, no arm, no jumps. I tried to tell people if you run Ward, Beavers, O’Neill that’s the worst OF in MLB.

Ok Dylan Beavers is just not a good OFer. Argue amongst yourselves.

@ZFARM_ What about green pants? To match the sleeves

Looks like these are the official new hats for the brand new city connects coming at some point this season. Personally I’m a fan and hopefully it’s cream color pants that match the jerseys and the front of the hat.🙏

@realcoreykno All I know is dozens of people are telling me he strikes out 3 times a game but he has 3 strikeouts total in 7 games, 9 Os have struck out more. Give the man a chance.

Don't show this to #them it might make them crash out

@PatIsWashed @BmoreDubby @GraysonBaker18 @Orioles That’s what I’ve been saying, Mounty could have been traded a month ago, year ago , 2 years ago. Now has 0 value. Jackson, Blaze, Vasquez, and Weston Wilson play 3-4 positions, much better use than Mounty.

@BmoreDubby @MojoTilty @GraysonBaker18 @Orioles just wasting a roster spot tbh, alonso plays everyday , look at his history. when holliday comes back id much rather keep blaze and JJack than mounty on the 26

Game 2 in Pittsburgh

@MillsTwitch Cool news Mlodzinski doesn’t throw a changeup O’s by 10 will be just fine

Baz shoves Mayo homers Cowser mashes a change up Orioles by 50.

@PatIsWashed @GraysonBaker18 @Orioles He was ranked 28th last season so not worst just real bad. His main issue is most 1b hit for power and walk a lot. The last 3 seasons he had no power and didn’t walk so the numbers look terrible.

@MojoTilty @GraysonBaker18 @Orioles worst? genuinely curious

@cherrybuster_69 @masnRoch 5th on team in on base percent, 5th in WAR, would be career high in batting avg. 9 Orioles has struck out more. He had 1 bad game and is still better defense than Ward, Beavers, O’Neill. I’m not giving up on him yet.

@masnRoch Get Cowser out of here

#orioles lineup

@Fergy015 @jcalvinmeyer Well he has 3 strikeouts total in 7 games so pretty dumb comment. Yesterday was his worst game of the season and he had 1 strikeout. The Orioles have 9 players with more strikeouts than Cowser. Maybe give him some slack seeing as he’s 5th in MLB among CF in on base percent.

Samuel Basallo on the bench, Leody Taveras in the outfield in this Orioles lineup vs. Pirates RHP Carmen Mlodzinski. Also, Dylan Beavers is starting over Tyler O’Neill again.

@GraysonBaker18 @Orioles Why? He can’t play any position but the one our highest paid player plays and 3 years of being the worst hitting 1b in baseball

@Orioles Can we give Mounty some playing time?

@zachbollinger18 The last ranking I saw has Camden Yards still as the 4th easiest ballpark to homer in. Ball will fly in the summer but from the games I went to and watch the highlights I think Cal would have way less with the current wall. He snuck a bunch over.

Okay I’ll say it… I miss the short wall in left.

@jamiehempel @PastTheEyeTest Before yesterday his at bats seemed better. He’s got 3 walks and 3Ks. He’s 10th on the team in strikeouts, so everyone else is whiffing a ton. But if what happened yesterday continues he won’t be in the majors long.

@MojoTilty @PastTheEyeTest How are his eyes? Can he see the pitcher’s hand and ball rotation? Something just seems wrong

Colton Cowser has seen 645 changeups in his career He has swung at 304 of them He has 25 hits against them

@OriolesMagic23 @OrangePizza44 No one would say someone that almost won rookie of the year and a gold glove stinks, give it some time, if his numbers go back to last year he will be gone. I wish he could play LF but we don’t have anyone better right now. Beavers, Ward, O’Neill worse D

@MojoTilty @OrangePizza44 Do you watch him play? The dude stinks

Thoughts from today: - Blaze Alexander is legit both ways - Coby Mayo is going back to AAA - Colton Cowser couldn’t hit a change up with a cutting board - Bradish will be fine he just needs to find it! #birdland

@OrangePizza44 @OriolesMagic23 5th on team in on base percent, 5th on team in WAR, 5th in MLB among all CF in on base percent, most range and strongest arm for Os outfielders. These numbers would be career highs for him and most of the Os.

@OriolesMagic23 Make an argument for Cowser not being the one going to AAA.

@mvpfloorservice @OriolesMagic23 Coby Mayo should play everyday, Cowser sucks??? Do you even watch? Cowser plays better defense and currently doing much better at the plate

Mayo should be playing 3rd everyday. He won the position and been on base every game with great ABs against very good righties. How did JJ do today in the 7 hole? Cowser needs to go down to AAA and once Holliday is healthy Blaze is our best option in CF. JJ stays as utility but hitting into a double on 1st pitch after leadoff walk. Then left 2 guys on. Blaze should play 2nd until Holliday comes back next week. Then move him to CF. Mayo will be fine if given the chance to play everyday. Has anyone else been on every game they’ve played?

@OriolesMagic23 So among all CF this season Cowser is 8th in batting average and 5th in on base percent, seeing a lot of pitches. Yeah he sucked yesterday but his numbers this year are better than most of the team and would be career highs. Relax. If he bats sub .200 he will be gone.
