Later on he struck out swinging on a pitch in the dirt a foot outside. He'll fit in nicely with that. 

Good to hear.   We can not have our player development guys working to hard.

Does Ryan Mountcastle have enough of an arm to stay at 3B?  Does Grenier have enough of a bat to be a regular SS?  Thanks

Probably not, probably yes, in that order.

The O’s selected Grenier with the 37th overall pick in this year’s draft, then challenged him with an assignment straight to Class A Delmarva. Grenier struggled in the South Atlantic League just a few weeks removed from winning a College World Series. A polished defender at shortstop, Grenier will need to prove he can hit enough to fit a consequential big league profile. He’s known for his glove and will stay at the position, but there’s reason to question how much impact he will have at the plate. It’s too early to shut the door on Grenier’s offensive upside, though we’re more confident his ceiling is closer to defensive specialist than regular option at this point.

If he were putting up those numbers at Bowie and played great D, I think I'd like this pick much more.   I think this was a pretty bad pick.

Good walk rate, terrible K rate especially for someone with basically no power and being a college bat in low A. 72 K in 217 PA.

Massive disappointment

Massive disappointment

I'd have had to have had expectations in the first place to be disappointed. Terrible pick from the jump.
