Hogs in MLB and MiLB

[Usafhawg]

Blaine Knight has been released by the Orioles. I'm surprised he lasted this long. He didn't show much at AA or AAA.

[BleedinRed]

Blaine was a weird talent.  While playing for the Hogs he never looked like a dominate pitcher even though he dominated.  He just won.

I'm really hopeful for Kjerstad.  I have a good friend who is a huge Orioles fan, and she keeps me informed about him.  Apparently he made it at least most of the way through spring training with the big team-- not sure, he may be there still.  Hitting really well.

I'm an O's season ticket holder (13 game plan). I'm 99% sure he is still with the big club. I know he traveled with them a couple of days ago. The word around here is that he'll start the season at Bowie (AA). That is good for me since that is only like 20 minutes from my house.

Good to hear.  That kid needs a break.

Robert Moore playing anywhere?

Casey Martin? Dom Fletcher?

Robert Moore playing anywhere?

He is in the Brewers Organization. There was a pic of him and Turner (White Sox) on Twitter the other day. I'm assuming it was a back field game and they aren't with the big team. Moore did tear it up playing in Australia over the winter.

Casey Martin? Dom Fletcher?

Martin is in the Phillies organization. He has not been tearing it up. With 770 at bats the last 2 years he is hitting .189.

Dom is still in the Arizona organization. He did pretty good playing for Italy in the WBC. When they played Japan he was 2-3 against Ohtani and 1-1 with a HR against Darvish.

Reassigned to minor-league camp
March 22, 2023
Kjerstad was reassigned Wednesday to the minor-league side of Orioles camp, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Kjerstad was never really in the running for an Opening Day roster spot in Baltimore after finishing out the 2022 campaign with High-A Aberdeen. However, he certainly made an impression during his time in major-league camp, slashing .390/.419/.829 with four home runs, four doubles and a triple across 43 plate appearances in Grapefruit League play. The 24-year-old outfielder is again drawing top-prospect attention after missing all of 2021 due to a heart condition.

Fletcher (from Rotowire)

Fletcher is a smaller guy like his older brother, the Angels' David Fletcher, but he packs a little more punch at the plate. The Diamondbacks prospect socked 12 home runs between the Double- and Triple-A levels in 2022, collecting nine stolen bases and an .864 OPS along the way. The left-handed hitting Fletcher did struggle versus southpaw hurlers with just a .681 OPS, so he might be more of a platoon bat when he reaches the majors. More likely, he's a fourth outfielder, and even after being added to the 40-man roster he faces an uphill battle for playing time in 2023.

He is in the Brewers Organization. There was a pic of him and Turner (White Sox) on Twitter the other day. I'm assuming it was a back field game and they aren't with the big team. Moore did tear it up playing in Australia over the winter.

Martin is in the Phillies organization. He has not been tearing it up. With 770 at bats the last 2 years he is hitting .189.

Dom is still in the Arizona organization. He did pretty good playing for Italy in the WBC. When they played Japan he was 2-3 against Ohtani and 1-1 with a HR against Darvish.

So Martin has made 624 outs.  Have 620 of them been curve ball strikeouts?

[DRYANKNPULL]

Evan Lee is with the National's AAA affiliate Rochester. He should get some innings with the Nats this summer.

What about the pitchers, like Isiah Campbell?

Optioned to Double-A
March 10, 2023
Campbell was optioned to Double-A Arkansas (Mariners) on Friday, Corey Brock of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Campbell recorded a 1.57 ERA and 0.93 WHIP over 46 innings between High-A and Double-A ball last season. He possesses elite strikeout stuff (10.9 career K/9) and could break into Triple-A before the end of the season.

a couple more I thought of:

Zach Jackson - A's
Trevor Stephan - Indians Guardians
Matt Reynolds - Reds (minors)

[DirkPiggler]

I'm pretty sure Jax Biggers is still bouncing around the Rangers org.

Stephan gets paid

https://awaybackgone.com/posts/cleveland-guardians-trevor-stephan-agree-to-four-year-contract-extension-01gws3qqnp0s

The Cleveland Guardians and reliever Trevor Stephan have agreed on a four-year, $10 million deal, with two club options ($7.25 million in 2027 and $7.5 million in 2028).
