O's At Tigers 18 August Game Thread

[AntiMoon]

You are kidding, right? Not a prospect/ Where have you been? He's as much a prospect as anyone we have in the system. The guy hit well at Bowie and is tearing Norfolk up. Even Machada didn't do that. Come on, get real!

Every scout claims he's a 4th OF. Doesn't hit for power or draw walks. Good for a 2B not a corneR Of'er

let's hope Johnson is better than Strop

[Mr. Buzzcut]

Another gem from Timmins.

[Jimmy Jazz]

Nail biting time.

[Far from home]

Good baseball.
That cut off in the 8th is the type of fundamental baseball that has been lacking on recent O's teams.

This team just keeps showing us why they are worth watching again.

This really was a must win after two tough losses. Now we can completely turn it around with a win tomorrow. Way to come through Britton.

In a normal farm system he's not even a top 10 system guy. Lacks a real position and average defense. Projects to have virtually zero power from his bat, draws zero walks, and doesn't have a whole lot of speed. He very well may be better than McLouth, but that's not really saying much.
