It speaks to the standards that Adley Rutschman has set for himself that another week with two home runs while going 8-for-27 doesn’t really rate anymore. It should, though. He’s been a constant in the Bowie lineup and is batting .294 with a .999 OPS while helping shepherd a pitching staff full of top prospects.
Working with this group of pitchers might be what keeps Rutschman in Bowie for a while, along with the fact that if he hits like this in Norfolk as well, there won’t really be anything to quiet the calls that he should already be in the big leagues.

After Cadyn Grenier struggled in the first year-plus of his professional career, the 37th pick in the 2018 MLB draft is on the run of his life at Bowie.
He was batting .154 with a .423 OPS on May 26 before home runs in three straight games started a stretch during which Grenier has hit .466 with 10 extra-base hits and 1.282 OPS in his past 15 games. During the past week, he went 11-for-23 with three steals. The former No. 19 prospect in the Orioles system has a lot more competition on the infield than he used to, but he’s making quite a case of late to be back on the radar.
