Gausman has been good out of the pen, I think they'll keep him there since they picked up Feldman. He can long relieve which they need badly. Maybe S.Johnson can return soon. Britton should stay but its a tough call with Chen coming back. Maybe they end up using Wada in a trade..does he have a NMC?

 

[tedman2012]

i dont think they will let gausman become a super 2 . gausman is billed as ace . i saw a rumor that patton was on the market . espn guys said best closer on the market atm i googles ! sox 3 outs away from losing second in a row and m"s face there best 2 .

[Mr. Oriole]

Read that Gamboa is getting moved to Norfolk and will start for the Tides on Wednesday.

Also that Schoop should start a rehab assignment with the GCL O's later this week, and that Delmonico should return to lineup with Keys from viral illness in the next couple of days.

from Steve Melewksi...O's agree with two more draft picks, set Hunter Harvey's pro debut

[Mr. Oriole]

1B Christian Walker was named Carolina League Player of the Week. Third straight week for the Keys. C Michael Ohlman earned the honor the previous 2 weeks.

From the news release...

The 22-year-old Walker began the season as the Orioles' No. 17 prospect and backed it up by hitting .353/.420/.474 in 31 games with Delmarva before earning a promotion to Frederick. He's been solid if not overwhelming in the Carolina League, though Lynchburg might disagree -- Walker went 7-for-13 with two homers, five doubles, four RBIs and seven runs scored in three games against the Hillcats between Thursday and Saturday. Overall, Walker ranks second in the Orioles system with 50 RBIs and fifth with a .312 batting average.

 

[Mr. Oriole]

Also, Walker was just named as a replacement player for the Futures Game.

Earlier, Eduardo Rodriguez and Henry Urrutia were named to the World Team.

Yup...thanks.

Don't think Gamboa is ready yet; but agree, would like to see him pitching for the O's some time this year.

 

[tedman2012]

couldn't do much worse tonight !

ohlman hr 10 walker hr 8 keys tied up 6-6 in 9th

 

[Mr. Oriole]

Read that O's 34th round pick, Parker Bugg, turned down the O's offer and is going to LSU. Is Alan Dunn still at LSU?

from the report...

Bugg was reportedly offered top-ten round money

O's tried.

Bugg turns down the Baltimore Orioles

 

[NJBuckO's]

So this guy Gamboa is a legit starting option down the line? I guess at 28 he's even young for a knuckler. Hope he works out that would be great.

 

[tedman2012]

looking at gamboa past Eddie Gamboa Stats, Bio, Photos, Highlights | Bowie Baysox Stats gamboa has avg stuff and has always played around on the side with the knuckleball . buck is the one that made ra dickey . so wednesday start is one to watch . only will take a few games to know plus a knuckle baller can mess guys timeing up for a week . here's to you gamboa go from no way to the majors to maybe a pro in one year . zach clark is struggling to get control of his knuckler

 

[NJBuckO's]

It says he's working with Phil Niekro so it must be somewhat legit.
