Nick will be missing for a minimum of 6 weeks, he has a tear in the Biceps Femoris (Hammy) . Bad news for the Sox, losing what Madrigal brings to the table in terms of offense, defense, and leadership, is a huge loss for the southsiders.
Adley has 9 home runs in 31 games. He is in the Top-5 in all of MiLB in HR, BB, and OBP. The best catcher in baseball tearing up AA ?
Shame on you Baltimore.
His slash line is .295/ .441/ .580

It hurts to see Nick going down with the hammy. He had a great year going.....wishing him a speedy recovery
What’s with Baltimore keeping Adley in the AA club? Probably trying to save some money but with the Orioles floundering like they are.....they could sure use what he brings to the game

Probably trying to save some money but with the Orioles floundering like they are.....they could sure use what he brings to the game It's all about keeping another year of control over his contract. Cubs did the same thing to Kris Bryant. And angered him so much he might not resign with them when he becomes eligible for free agency. |

However there is another arbitration date which means he may not be called up until August or September. |

White Sox players comment that Nick's smile, attitude, and zest for the game inspires them - "when we need it, we look to him to get us going".
That's a form of leadership, isn't it?

Not sure a guy in MLB for a year (came up last year, right?) is a 'leader' quite yet, but he is well on his way.. Moriarty. |
