Long first few innings but fun game tonight with a lot of positives, especially at the plate.

Austin Hays is really looking good.  I am hoping the kid can stay healthy.  I think he is All Star caliber if he can stay on the field.

Very interesting that Santander is absent for three straight games now and no word on an injury...

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Wouldn't surprise me if he is moved. The Os have been playing Mountcastle, Mullins, and Hays from left to right. I didn't think they were going to give Mullins the fulltime CF gig but it seems thats what they want to do to start the year. Hays and Mountcastle also need to be playing every day. Obviously, they have the DH spot available but I think they'd like to see Stewart take it when he gets healthy.

@masnRoch

Brandon Hyde says Anthony Santander is out of lineup because he's taken a lot of ABs on back field. "We just kept him out." Santander has been out of the #orioles lineup the past 3 games. Leads team with 10 walks and .487 OBP.

White Sox could use him

[Pedro Cerrano]

Santander for Tatis Jr!

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Well has pitched 2 innings, 5 ks, no hits tonight. It seems he's stamped his spot on the roster.

[Mike B]

Keep Santander unless we get real return for him.

Sceroler looked good last night too.

 

Akin sent down today.  He pitched himself off the team.

3 innings, 0 h, 1 BB, 6 Ks for Wells.

Didnt realize Akin was sent tdown though I expected it. Just made a post in the other thread.

Lopez also a very strong 5 innings against the Yankees real squad.

Hate the decision on Akin. Nothing to prove in the Minors. Hand him the ball.

 Wells, now up to 3 IP  0 R, 0 H 1 BB, 6 K.

 

Jorge Lopez a real good start against Cole and most of the Yankee regulars.   

 

5 IP 2 H  0 R, 1 BB, 3 K

 

I think Lopez gets a rotation spot.

Nothing wrong with having Akin start in AAA.

He has too many 25 plus pitch innings.  Doing that he is going to get  3 or 4 innings per start.  Not enough

Yes he's in the rotation to start. Ultimately hes likely in the pen.

If it's a start or two to get him right, okay.
But think he should be getting a long extended run in the Majors this year. I'm not one to worry about the Spring Training numbers. I assume the Orioles aren't either and just dont like the lack of fb command this Spring.

I think that’s what it is. Let him try to find his command at the alternate site and give a guy like Lopez a chance to start while he does.
