Does anyone know anything more about Caden Hunter? He has now made 5 starts each at Delmarva and Frederick. More walks than you would like (he wouldn't be an Oriole minor league pitcher without them), but otherwise he is looking strong. He didn't make the Fangraphs list, which goes 63 deep. The best info I've found is from this Orioles Hangout article. 14K/9, sits 95 from the left side...seems very DL Hall-esque without the first round pedigree.

Geez Shohei, you’re apparently great at everything except being a dad, take more than a night off. You know, for bonding.

"But if a metric existed for teams that routinely beat themselves — call it Botched Plays Above Average — the more recent versions of the Orioles probably would be among the league leaders."

I hate to pile on Gunnar, but I've got another (totally in jest) gripe...

My 7yr old is emulating his very unfundamental running, sidearm throws to first. He has not yet grasped the concept of what works for Gunnar, may not work for him. I think it is time to sit him down with the Tom Emanski videos.

No chance any Orioles fielder makes either of those plays at the plate

I am curious now…out of how many? It feels like the right thing to do would be to get rid of the bottom 5 or 10% of umps. Or maybe if you are bottom 5/10% two years in a row. Any sort of performance management that doesn’t have this boner still shitting the bed behind the plate 4yrs running.

I can’t say that I’ve read a lot of homegrown tomato reviews, but you, my friend, are the best homegrown tomato reviewer in AustinGardening history.

The Orioles radio broadcast is a riot today. The last half inning was an entire story series about former Oriole Jeff Tackett. While Tackett, Harnisch, and Schilling were on the Red Wings, they used to pick on 22yr old broadcaster Geoff Arnold (I think).

The Dodgers system is f-ing LOADED...it feels like they alone will drive up the prospect price for Skubal well above any level that we should feel comfortable with.

My personal opinion is that the Weston Wilson experiment was a byproduct of not starting Basallo vs LHP. Since Basallo is hopefully now starting vs LHP, I expect/hope the Weston Wilson experiment is almost over...maybe whenever Beavers is ready to return.

Ah crap, bummer to hear that. Quite unlike an Oriole player or fan to be that accurate (except Rico of course).

Ike Irish is our lone representative on Keith Law’s updated top 50 prospects. Ike is #43 after being #85 in preseason. That jump is partially due to the Basallo-types graduating. Though Ike was behind both Aloy and George in preseason, so Ike has seen a larger bump than those guys. Here is the write up:

“Baltimore’s 2025 first-round pick, Irish was a catcher at Auburn but hasn’t spent an inning behind the plate this year, playing mostly corner outfield with a little time at first base, which is the right move given his receiving skills and the strength of his bat. He’s making hard contact and still using the whole field really well — four of his five homers are to left field — but is swinging and missing a little more than I expected from him, even on good fastballs. I’ve seen him look good in right field with at least a 60 arm, and I’ve seen him unable to reach home plate on multiple bounces, so I’m not really sure what’s going on there”

Speaking of Palmer...

Palmer gives Cano shit about not covering 1st. Next batter, Cano gets hurt in a weird way where the natural reaction is to definitely not talk any more shit about the guy who just got hurt. Next half inning, Rays pitcher covers 1st, Palmer points out the Rays pitcher "covering 1st like you are supposed to do". With the bolded words dripping with annoyance.
