Welcome to Norfolk. May your stay be brief.

Yep. I think he will do well.

Now for the Cowser problem. He's hitting .347/.434/.590 in AAA. Walks and strikeouts are close to even. 5-6 in stolen bases. They're gonna start asking for his birth certificate on the other teams. If he takes back off now that he's back, you have to do something. He was the number 5 pick in the draft that year. Why did we draft him, if not for this?

And Westburg is making like Babe Ruth-or Aaron Judge. Whaddayou do w/him?

Kerstad will make Norfolk's order even more ridiculous than it is now.I mean, they have a team batting average of .286 if u can believe it. They're top two in just about everything, hitting-wise.

As long as the Orioles are acting like contenders, I think they will mostly stick with the more experienced players. If they fall apart and drop out of it and get eliminated, then there might be some movement.

I doubt if you'll see Kerstad.

They are. Except walks, where they're 17th. Maybe because you can't pitch around anybody?

Weirdest yet. I realized that they're a team worth watching. My daughter lives over Allentown way, so I looked at the Lehigh Valley Ironpigs schedule. They're International League too, same division. They never play each other again in any stadium this year. Maybe playoffs? Pigs are #3.

Maybe the lack of walks is keeping Westburg down there. Has only 24 while 50 strikeouts in 208 at-bats. Shows he's chasing, perhaps? And Major League pitchers will exploit that?
