It's A Bird, It's A Plane, No, It's Superhero Night!
You Kent ask for a better finish than last night's game against the Mudcats. Trust me, we aren't Jokering! The Keys ended up Robin the win from Carolina with a walk-off sacrifice fly from Christian Walker in the bottom of the ninth inning. The Keys scored the only run of the game and finished on top, 1-0.
*Christian Walker hopped on a train this morning to head to Citi Field, home of the New York Mets, for the All-Star Futures Game on Sunday. Walker spoke with Frederick News-Post's writer, Greg Swatek after last night's walk-off win.
"I am looking forward to everything, just being in the atmosphere of being in a big league park and all those guys. They are great players. They are there for a reason. It should be a good experience."
*Click here to read Swatek's entire story on the Frederick News-Post's website.
*Former Keys starter, Eduardo Rodriguez, will join Walker in representing the Baltimore Orioles Organization along with Henry Urrutia.[tweet https://twitter.com/eduardorod5/status/356015720812904448]
Trent Howard pitched five great innings giving up just one hit and no runs. He struck out five in his best start of the season, however, he did not factor into the decision. Miguel Chalas and Gene Escat pitched a combined four scoreless inning and only gave up three hits. Escat was credited with the win.
Keep your X-Ray vision on Michael Ohlman in tonight's game. He is batting .364 with four homers and nine RBIs in the month of July. Tucker Nathans has been flying under the radar since he came up from Delmarva last week. In four games, Nathans is batting .357 with a double, an RBI and a stolen base.
Zach Clark, who was just transferred from Double-A Bowie, will start tonight for the Keys. He is currently 1-4 with the Baysox in five starts this season.

Series split at stake for Keys tonight
The Keys broke out of their most recent funk last night. snapping a three-game losing streak with a 6-1 win at Wilmington. Brady Wager was exceptional, picking up his second straight win by allowing just one run over seven innings. And Johnny Ruettiger got the Keys started offensively on the first pitch of the game:
*Read more about last night's win here.
As for tonight, Zach Davies will start for Frederick, the Keys with the opportunity to split this four-game series in Wilmington after dropping the first two games. Davies hasn't allowed more than three runs in any of his last 10 starts and is 2-0 with a 2.19 ERA in two starts against Wilmington. The Blue Rocks' starter, Kyle Smith, isn't so bad either. His 2.91 ERA is the fourth best in the Carolina League and he's 1-0 with a 1.72 ERA in three starts against the Keys this season. More on tonight's contest in the game notes:
*Going back to last night, Christian Walker racked up two more hits and two more RBIs, continuing his stellar month of July. The reigning Carolina Player of the Week talked about heading to the All-Star Futures Game this weekend with broadcaster Adam Pohl.
*Another nugget from last night's win: Ashur Tolliver's season debut. He made his first appearance for the Keys since Sept. 4, 2011 in last night's 6-1 win. Tolliver threw two scoreless innings, allowed a hit and a walks and struck out three in his 2013 Keys debut. He missed all of 2012 after having Tommy John surgery and was promoted to Frederick from Delmarva on Sunday.

Breakfast and baseball, anyone?
The Keys' recent slide continue last night, falling 5-0 to Carolina, their third loss in a row and 13th in their last 16 games. Frederick gets right back at it this morning, taking on the Mudcats in an 11 a.m. game. Coverage starts at 10:30 a.m. on 1450 AM The Source and whtu.org. Feel free to listen in while you work.
*Eduardo Rodriguez was great again for the Keys last night, tossing seven innings and allowing just three hits and one run. Unfortunately, his offense did not support him, picking up a total of three hits against four Mudcats pitchers. For more on last night, read the recap on FrederickKeys.com.
*Trent Howard will start today's game for the Keys, taking the rotation spot of Zach Petersime. Howard has been lights out as a reliever (3-0, 0.69 ERA) and has started four games this season, going 0-0 with a 2.87 ERA. Opposing Howard and the Keys is Shawn Morimando, owner of the seventh-best ERA in the Carolina League. More on today's starting southpaws in the game notes:

Listen to the Keys at work, win a bobblehead on Facebook
Shortly after yesterday's blog post went up, the Keys got rained out in Winston-Salem.
The good news is you don't have to wait long for Keys baseball today. Frederick takes on Winston-Salem this morning at 11 a.m., looking to cap off an undefeated road trip.
If the Keys, who have won their first four games on this trip, win today, it will be their most successful road swing in recent Keys history. The best trips in recent memory:
- 5/27-29/11 – Keys swept Salem Red Sox; 4 games in 3 nights – 4-0 road trip
- 7/13-20/11 – 8 game trip to Wilmington & Kinston; Lost game 1 in Wilmington, won 6 in a row, lost game 8 in Kinston
- 8/19-24/05 – 7 game road trip to Myrtle Beach & Kinston; Won first 5 games but lost final 2 in Kinston
Listen to today's game on AM1450 The Source, online at wthu.org or through the TuneIn Radio App by searching for WTHU. The Frederick Gorilla Pregame Show starts 30 minutes before first pitch.
*We'll be giving away Manny Machado bobbleheads to the first 1,000 fans in the gates at Harry Grove Stadium for Saturday's 6 p.m. game against Wilmington. Gates open at 5.
We're also giving away a bobble today, tomorrow and Friday on our Facebook page. To win it, like us and then keep yours eyes peeled for a Manny Machado trivia question. Be the first to correctly answer, and the bobble is yours.
Tickets to Saturday's game and the rest of the four-game series with Wilmington that begins Friday at 7 p.m. can be purchased online here, by calling 301-815-9939 or by visiting the Keys' box office at The Grove.
For those of you who want a Manny bobblehead, but don't want to fight the crowd Saturday, a free bobblehead comes with the purchase of any of our ticket plans. One bobble head per seat. We have Dylan Bundy, too.
*Speaking of Manny, his WAR (Wins Above Replacement) is better than that of fellow phenoms Bryce Harper and Mike Trout, for all you lovers of advanced metrics. Fox Sports' Ken Rosenthal gives Machado love in this story.
*For those of you wondering, Tuesday's postponed game will be made up in Winston-Salem as part of a Memorial Day Doubleheader.

Five for Monday: Keys in the World Baseball Classic (Updated)
For those who check this space regularly, you probably noticed I didn't end last week with the usual Five for Friday post. So, let's do it now, leading off with what was posted Friday, the day the 2013 World Baseball Classic began.
1. Bumbry's British baseball experience
Steve Bumbry, a Key in 2011 and 2012, spent the end of last September in Germany playing with Great Britain the World Baseball Classic qualifying round. I talked to Bumbry and his mother, who was born in Wales, about a week and a half ago about their experiences overseas. An excerpt from the story is below:
Steve Bumbry had never even been to Europe before.
But there he was last September in Regensburg, Germany, he and a few others on the steps of the Bavarian town's historic cathedral, belting out Britain's national anthem "God Save the Queen."
"Oh, God. Yeah, that happened," said Bumbry, recalling his rookie initiation with Great Britain's World Baseball Classic team the night before the Brits' first WBC qualifier. "We were in the Cathedral square, and we're (singing) on the steps of this cathedral and people are sitting outside cafes eating, drinking and whatever."
A Frederick Key in 2011 and 2012, Bumbry batted third and played right field for Great Britain in its three qualifying games at Regensburg's Armin-Wolf Stadium. The Brits blew out the Czech Republic in their second game, but fell to Canada and Germany and were eliminated from the tournament.
While Bumbry's on-field performance – he tallied just one hit in nine at-bats – wasn't very memorable, he said his entire experience overseas, from playing baseball on that stage to connecting with a part of his heritage, was unforgettable.
If you want to keep reading, the full story is here.
2. Former Keys in the WBC
(Correction: An earlier version of this post stated there were six former Keys in the WBC. My apologies to Richard Salazar and Danny Figueroa.)
By my count and that of a few more veteran Keys employees, there are right former Frederick Keys playing in the World Baseball Classic this month, representing the Netherlands, Australia, Spain, Italy, Canada and the United States. They are:
Jonathan Schoop, 2B (NED) – The Orioles' top positional prospect is a native of Curacao and batted second while playing second base for the Dutch (1-1) in their first two games. Schoop played 83 games for the Keys in 2010 and 2011 and is hitless with one walk in WBC play. He hit .271 with 37 RBIs in 77 games with the Keys in 2011.
*Here's an MiLB article on Schoop and the Netherlands.
Allan de San Miguel, C (AUS) – This 2012 Key is a native of Bentley, Australia. He caught the Aussies' (0-2) second game against Korea (a 6-0 loss), batted ninth and went 0-for-3. As a Key, San Miguel hit .260 with two home runs and 17 RBIs in 30 games.
*Schoop and San Miguel's countries square off at 11:30 this morning.
Paco Figueroa, 2B (ESP) – Now in the Philadelphia organization, Figueroa played 90 games in Frederick in 2006, hitting .284 and stealing 20 bases (though he was caught stealing 13 times). Figueroa's twin brother, Danny, played center field for the Keys in 2008. Spain's first game is Friday against Puerto Rico.
Danny Figueroa, OF (ESP) – The other Figueroa brother patrolled center field for the Keys in 2008, stealing 33 bases in 104 games while batting .239. Selected by the Orioles in the 2005 MLB draft, he was released in 2011 after two seasons in double-A Bowie.
Richard Salazar, P (ESP) – A member of the Keys for parts of four seasons, Salazar has been playing independent baseball since 2008. He pitched in 100 games with the Keys over the 2003, 2005, 2006 and 2007 seasons, finishing with a 7-6 record and a 4.09 ERA. He threw 171.2 innings and struck out 141 batters in his Keys career.
John Mariotti, P (ITA) – No longer in affiliated baseball, Mariotti played for the Keys briefly in 2008 and for all of the 2010 season. In 2010, his last season in the Orioles' organization, he finished with a 3-6 record, three saves and a 4.08 ERA in 21 games. He played for independent team Les Capitales de Quebec the last two seasons. Italy's first game is Thursday against Mexico.
*For those of you who read French, here's an article from Les Capitales announcing Mariotti making the Italian roster.
Adam Loewen, OF (CAN) – A left-handed pitcher drafted by the Orioles with the fourth overall pick of the 2002 MLB draft, Loewen spent all of 2005 with the Keys. He started 27 games and made one relief appearance that year, finishing 10-8 with a 4.12 ERA and 146 strikeouts in 142 innings. The following March, Loewen started Canada's 8-6 victory over the U.S. in the first World Baseball Classic. A stress fracture in his left elbow ended his pitching career in 2008 after reaching the majors the prior two seasons and Loewen made the transition to the outfield. He made his major league debut as an outfielder in 2011 with Toronto. Canada's first game is Friday against Italy.
*I wrote about Loewen's recent encounter with O's prospect and former Key Kevin Gausman a week ago.
David Hernandez, P (USA) – Originally on the Mexican roster before he was ruled a generation too far removed from a native-born ancestor to play for Mexico, the 2007 Frederick Key was added to the American roster to replace Cleveland Indians reliever Chris Perez. Now a key cog in the back-end of Arizona's bullpen, Hernandez started 27 games and made one relief appearance for the Keys, going 7-11 with a 4.95 ERA while striking out 168 batters in 145.1 innings pitched. The U.S. plays its first game Friday against Mexico.

Bundy to pitch against Yankees (updated)
After being rained out of his scheduled appearance yesterday, Dylan Bundy is slated to pitch for the O's this afternoon against the Yankees. The 2012 Key is slated to pitch after starter Jake Arrieta (another former Key), according to MASN's Roch Kubatko. First pitch for the O's split-squad contest was scheduled for 1:05 p.m.
*Follow Bundy and the O's live with MLB.com Gameday here.
**Update: Through one inning, Bundy has allowed a walk to Dan Johnson and struck out Juan Rivera. Bundy came in the game to start the bottom of the third inning. He also got Robinson Cano to groundout and Zoilo Almonte to fly out.
**Another update: Bundy gave up a single to start the fourth, but then retired three in a row – two on grounders, the other on a fly ball. Last batter Bundy retired was Yankees speedster Brett Gardner.
**Final update: Bundy has been pulled after two innings. His final line: 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 SO

The Bundy Effect: putting meat in Carolina League seats
The ace of Frederick's 2012 staff was slated to pitch for the Orioles this afternoon against the Pirates at their park in Bradenton, Fla., but rain prevented him from taking the mound. Had the game been played, based on the attendance spikes Bundy caused during his starts in the Carolina League, one would have expected a larger than usual crowd, even on a soggy Tuesday afternoon.
The top-rated pitching prospect in baseball, Bundy, one of four Orioles pitchers set to take the mound against Pittsburgh this afternoon, went 6-3 with a 2.84 ERA with the Keys last season, striking out 66 batters in 57 innings.
Average paid attendance for Bundy's five starts at Harry Grove Stadium was 7,148. His first start in Fredrick, Thursday, May 26, drew 9,833 people to the Grove, the Keys' season high. Nearly a month later, on Saturday, June 23, 9,477 came to see the Orioles' 2011 first-round draft pick. On superhero night (Saturday, July 14), 7,583 came to the ballpark, the first 1,000 receiving a Bundy t-shirt, including this Bundy fanatic:
Bundy's lowest attended home start was his last on Thursday, Aug. 8, when 4,113 came to the Grove. That was his only home start in which attendance dipped below the Keys' Carolina-League-leading average of 4,724 per contest.
In the five road starts Bundy made in the Carolina League in which attendance was reported (Wilmington and Lynchburg failed to do so in his first starts away from home), teams averaged 5,028 spectators per game.
On July 4 in Potomac, 7,442 fans packed the P-Nats' park to watch the hard-throwing righty. On July 20 (a Friday), 5,843 fans bought tickets in Winston-Salem. Bundy pitched at Potomac, Winston-Salem, Lynchburg and Wilmington last season.
Of the five games with reported attendance, only once did Bundy fail to exceed a team's average attendance for the 2012 season — Thusday, June 28 at Winston-Salem. Still, 3,857 fans came to that contest, less than 600 fewer than the Dash's average of 4,428, which ranked second in the league.
Bundy's effect on Carolina League crowds was obvious — he made them larger. His effect in the South Atlantic League during his eight starts with Delmarva and in the Eastern league in his three starts with Bowie is less clear, though he likely caused an uptick in weekday attendance at those stops.
Bundy averaged 2,116 fans in all of his starts with Delmarva, all but two of which were weekday games, which typically don't draw as well as weekend contests (Friday, Saturday or Sunday games). Five of Bundy's 10 starts in which paid attendance was reported in the Carolina League came on weekends.
In the SAL, Bundy only exceeded attendance averages twice, both times on the road — at Asheville on opening day and at Hagerstown on Sunday, May 20.
His biggest crowd in Delmarva was 3,056 on Monday, May 14, which is still shy of the Shorebirds average of 3,303 last season. Delmarva's location on the Eastern Shore may have also kept some Orioles fans away. Portions of that group likely came to Frederick to see the O's prospect.
In the two starts Bundy made with Bowie in which attendance was reported, he drew crowds of 4,847 on a Monday in Richmond and 2,747 on a Tuesday in Bowie. Both those numbers are shy of the average figures for those clubs.
Regardless, Bundy's season in the Carolina League brought fans in big numbers to its minor league ballparks.
Attendance during Bundy's 2012 starts at Harry Grove Stadium:
5/26 – 9833, 6/14 – 4736, 6/23 – 9477, 7/14 – 7583, 8/8 – 4113
Road attendance in Bundy's 2012 Carolina League starts:
Carolina League 2012 average attendance:

|Winston-Salem Dash
|Wilmington Blue Rocks
|Carolina Mudcats
|Myrtle Beach Pelicans
|Potomac Nationals
|Salem Red Sox

Four 2012 Keys in intrasquad starting lineups (updated)
The Orioles played their first intrasquad games of spring training this morning, a pair three-inning contests that began around 10 a.m. To fill out the lineups, six minor leaguers were called up from their minicamp to fill out the starting lineups, four of whom were Keys last season.
Outfielders Glynn Davis, Brenden Webb and Johnny Ruettiger and infielder Ty Kelly started today's contests after spending time in Frederick in 2012, along with O's farmhands Buck Britton, a 2011 Key, and 18-year-old Adrian Marin, who finished 2012 in Delmarva and has yet to reach Frederick. Another 2012 Key, catcher Allen de San Miguel, also played in today's games.
*I'll update with any Keys-related info from the intrasquad games as it becomes available.
–Davis was the only 2012 Key to make it into MASN writer Rock Kubatko's notes from the intrasquad game. Kubatko noted that Davis struck out against Baltimore free-agent acquisition Jair Jurrjens. His article is here.
–Marin, who could potentially see time in Frederick this year, caught O's manager Buck Showalter's eye today. Here's his quote about the Orioles' 2012 third-round pick in another Kubatko story:
"You can see why everybody's so high on him. He's got nice actions, real calm," Showalter said. "He's got a little Bordy (Mike Bordick) look to him."
–Eduardo Rodriguez, one of our 40 potential Keys for 2013, is slated to pitch in Thursday's six-inning intrasquad game, according to MLB.com's Britt Ghiroli.
–Ruettiger reached base and nearly scored, but was gunned down by fellow minor leaguer and 2010 Key L.J. Hoes. San Miguel made a nice scoop and applied the tag, according to Baltimore Sun reporter Ed Encina and columnist Peter Shmuck. Shmuck's take is here.
A few more bits and pieces on this Wednesday:
*Another reminder that the Keys Job Fair will be held Tuesday and Wednesday Feb. 26 and 27 from 6-8 p.m. each night at Harry Grove Stadium. More info here and here.
*The Keys opening weekend ticket package is on sale. Four tickets to any of the three games, four Esskay hot dogs and four drinks for a low price. Check it out here and reserve your seats.
*2012 Key Dylan Bundy, baseball's top pitching prospect, got some more media love today. Read Steve Melewski's story here.
*Britt Ghiroli wrote a good, lengthy piece on Nolan Reimold (Frederick Key in 2005 and 2006) working back from the career-threatening neck injury that ended his season in 2012. Read it here.
*The No. 10 promotion in our countdown of 2013′s top 10 promotions at Harry Grove Stadium was unveiled yesterday. No. 9 will be released on the blog this afternoon.

Top 40 Countdown: Potential Keys
By: Derek LeComte
The days are getting longer, the temperature is getting (somewhat) warmer and you know baseball season is close – but not close enough! As winter transitions to spring and our April 6th home opener draws closer, we're going to do our best to give you your baseball fix.
Leading up to our April 6th start, everyday at 11:30 AM, we're going to countdown the 40 players we feel have a chance to play for Frederick this season. Super-stud top-prospect Dylan Bundy seems destined for Frederick, but will Manny Machado and Jonathan Schoop be back in town this year? How about other top-ten prospects Parker Bridwell, Jason Esposito and Nicky Delmonico? Do they have what it takes to make the jump up to Frederick?
The Keys had the best team ERA of any full-season minor league team, posting a 3.22 ERA as they were the key (pun intended) ingredient in helping the Keys take home the 2011 Mills Cup. But, how many of those players will be back in 2012? Will there be a severe drop-off in pitching talent? Or, assuming Bundy comes along, will the pitching prospects be even better?
To start our countdown off, we're going to take a look at those pitchers first and try and analyze who will likely appear at Harry Grove Stadium. From there we'll look at the catchers, corner infielders, middle infielders and then outfielders we think will be a part of the 2012 Keys.
2. Trent Mummey, OF (4th Round Pick in 2010 Draft)
We'd love to see what Mummey can do without the injuries. He only played in 29 games in 2011, but he's another guy that has put up solid numbers every step of the way. To give you an indication of his work ethic, one of his injuries occurred when he dove head-first into the wall diving for a ball. He suffered a concussion on the play, but it's an example of Mummey's all-0ut effort on the field. Barring another injury, he's certain to land in Frederick at some point this season.
Ranked as the #27 prospect in the Orioles organization by Baseball America entering the 2012 season, Mummey had an injury-filled 2011, limiting him to just 29 games played between Delmarva and Frederick. Mummey's first injury was a scary one as his head collided with the wall while diving for a ball at Harry Grove Stadium. Taken off the field in an ambulance, Mummey missed a month with a concussion, then in five games after his return, he tore his hamstring. Yet in Mummey's limited action, he posted excellent numbers, hitting .292 / .373 / .478 in 2011 between both Frederick and Delmarva. In his first game with the Keys, Mummey went 4-for-6 and was a homerun shy of hitting for the cycle as he drove in five runs.
Mummey was a First-Team All-SEC selection for Auburn despite missing 28 games with an ankle sprain in 2010. Hitting .366 with an alarming .797 slugging percentage, Mummey finished with 15 doubles, 17 homeruns and 54 RBI as he guided Auburn to their first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2005. Selected twice to the SEC All-Defensive team, Mummey committed just two errors in his collegiate career.
Drafted by the Orioles in the 4th round of the 2010 draft, the Pinson, AL native began his professional career with Aberdeen on June 26. In his 14th career game, Mummey had a night to remember. Facing the Auburn Doubledays, he went 3-for-4 with a double, triple, and finished the evening with a walk-off grand slam. Promoted to Delmarva on August 22, Mummey finished his 62-game rookie campaign with 16 doubles, five triples, three homers, and 29 RBI. His 16 doubles were tops of any Aberdeen player in 2010.
3. Kipp Schutz, OF (19th Round Pick in 2009 Draft)
Until getting to Frederick, Schutz has had a ton of success everywhere he's gone. He put up great numbers with Aberdeen and then Delmarva, but really hit a road block when he got to Frederick. He went from a .381 / .429 / .568 line in 38 games with Delmarva to a .212 / .266 / .346 line with Frederick. All players, however, seem to need time so they can adjust to a higher level of play. For Schutz, it's the same thing. So expect him back in Frederick to start the year where he'll work on his strikeout numbers, which ballooned to a 22.3% rate with the Keys.
Schutz rolled through Delmarva after hitting .381 / .429 / .568 in 38 games, and earned a promotion to Frederick in late May. Schutz was unable to find the same level of success, however, as his numbers dropped to .212 / .266 / .346 and had a strikeout rate of 22.3% with the Keys.
Schutz had an excellent year in 2010 with Aberdeen, finishing ninth in the New York-Penn League with his team-leading .313 batting average and his 83 hits were fourth-most in the league. Schutz saw more success at pitcher-friendly Ripken Stadium, hitting .360 at home as opposed to .262 on the road.
Drafted by the Orioles in the 26th round in 2006, Schutz attended Indiana University instead, but was drafted by the Orioles again, this time in the 19th round in 2009. Schutz missed his freshman year due to a shoulder injury, but the next year hit .317 with six home runs—tops among Big 10 freshmen. A First-Team All-Big Ten selection in 2009, he finished third in the conference with a .392 average. In 2008-09, Schutz walked-on to the IU basketball team, appearing in six games and scoring six points.
4. Steve Bumbry, OF (12th Round Pick in 2009 Draft)
Bumbry led the Keys in almost every offensive category, and we're pretty confident he'll start the year in Frederick for 2012. While he has a superb 14.8% walk rate, he strikes out way, way too much. With a 27.4% strikeout rate, he's entering Mark Reynolds territory and that's never a good thing. Already with a high on-base percentage (.364), his numbers could really take off if he just cuts down his strikeout rate to below 20%. Yet other than his strikeout numbers, Bumbry will serve as a great asset to the Keys to start the year.
5. Johnny Ruettiger, OF (8th Round Pick in 2011 Draft)
Is the last name familiar? If you've seen one of the best sports movies ever, then it should be. The nephew to Dan 'Rudy' Ruettiger, who inspired the movie Rudy, Johnny, unlike his uncle, has a lot of natural ability. He crushed the ball at Arizona State, hitting .341 / .446 / .455 and has even spent time in big league camp this spring. He's been praised for his speed and while he hasn't had a lot of professional at-bats, with his talent level, we're certain Ruettiger will land with the Keys at some point this season.
6. Glynn Davis, OF (Signed as non-drafted free agent in 2010)
The story behind Davis is great. No scouts really knew about Davis or his ability except the Orioles. After he torched the junior college ranks and in the summer bat leagues, the Orioles took notice of him in part because he was playing for Catonsville, which is right in the Orioles' backyard. What they saw was a player with top-ten round talent – and they stated as much publicly. They signed him as an undrafted free agent, and Davis made good on the O's bold claim. In his first pro year, he hit .284 / .351 / .362 and Baseball America lists him as the O's 19th-best prospect and the organization's fastest baserunner. These are the types of hidden gems the O's would love to find more of, and it would be an incredible boost if he pans out to be a major league regular.
Davis is considered a hidden gem inside the Baltimore Orioles organization. Ranked as the 19th-best prospect in the O's system by Baseball America, Davis wasn't even drafted. Signed out of Catonsville Community College after putting up stellar numbers in the junior college ranks, Davis, who was draft eligible, wasn't taken by anyone despite a big year at Catonsville. Yet after hitting over .400 in the All-American Amateur Baseball Association, a wooden bat summer league featuring college players, the Orioles decided to sign the promising 18-year old. Before shining over the summer in the AAABA, Davis hit .430 with ten homeruns and 35 stolen bases with Catonsville as he was a 3rd Rank Region XX All-American Nominee and the Catonsville Community College Male Athlete of the Year.
After signing, Davis was considered to have top ten round talent by Orioles scouts and he proved them right after an incredible first year. Blowing through the GCL after hitting .435, Davis continued his great play in Aberdeen, hitting .271 with a .337 on-base percentage. His 23 stolen bases were also a team high and is ranked by Baseball America as the organization's fastest baserunner. Defensively, Davis was responsible for four double plays from the outfield.
7. Mychal Givens, SS (2nd Round Pick in 2009 Draft)
Showing a lot of promise in 2010, Givens had a very disappointing 2011. Hitting just .243 / .318 / .290 in what was his first full professional season, there's already a lot of worry and fear among Orioles fans that Givens – who was taken very high in the draft – won't pan out. Now, he showed a lot in an injury-filled 2010, hitting .286 / .402 / .452 in 23 games, so there's hope that he regains form and develops into a solid player. If he does bounce back, there's no doubt he'll get a look at Frederick in the second half of the year.
8. Manny Machado, SS (1st Round Pick and 3rd Overall in 2010 Draft)
Rated the 11th-best prospect in baseball, Machado projects to be an all-star MLB shortstop. Keys fans were able to see this future star help the Keys win the Mills Cup as he hit .344 / .447 / .563 with nine RBIs in nine playoff games. The question, though, is will we get to see him in 2012? That all depends if the Orioles feel he's ready for Double-A ball. Keep in mind he put up rather pedestrian numbers during the regular season, holding a line of .245 / .308 / .384 with Frederick, and he battled a knee injury that kept him out a month. So there is a great chance he starts out back in Frederick for this season. He'll be battling fellow super prospect Jonathan Schoop for that shortstop position in Bowie, so even if Machado gets the call to Double-A, Keys fans will still be treated to seeing Schoop.
9. Michael Rooney, SS/2B (30th Round Pick in 2010 Draft)
With the announcement of Machado and Schoop both playing shortstop, this is one player that will be greatly affected. Rooney will now get much more of a look at second base, where he excels defensively. The CAA Defensive Player of the Year in 2010, his defensive skills translated nicely over to the professional ranks where he put up a .979 fielding percentage with Frederick last year. He needs to show more offensively, as he holds a career .230 / .324 / .282 slash line. But everywhere Rooney has been – from Short-Season A ball to college – his on-base percentage is generally 100 points higher than his batting average. If he can generate more offense and power with the bat, he will then start to hold a lot more value. Expect Rooney back in Frederick for 2012 competing at second base.
10. Jonathan Schoop, SS/2B (Signed as non-drafted free agent in 2008)
This is one of the brightest prospects in the game. Recognized by Baseball America as the 82nd-best prospect in all of baseball, Schoop has the chance to become a future star. After torching the Low-A level with a .316 / .376 / .514 line at just 19 years old, he was bumped up to Frederick and put up a respectable .271 / .329 / .375 slash line at the Advanced-A level. At a young age, he's proven he can hit and hit for power, but his work with the glove is also spectacular. Despite never playing second base in his career, he put up a .975 fielding percentage to go along with a 4.34 range factor per game. As a double play combo with fellow top prospect Manny Machado, they were superb. However, new general manager Dan Duquette has recently stated Schoop will be placed back at shortstop where he has a career 4.77 RF/G. That breaks up the pairing of Machado and Schoop and also means that Frederick will see either Schoop or Machado – not both. So, it'll be either Schoop or Machado in Bowie and then the other in Frederick.
11. Garabez Rosa, SS (Signed as non-drafted free agent in 2006)
Rosa at one point was a highly-touted prospect out of the Dominican Republic, but he has regressed. His lack of plate discipline (1.6% walk rate with Frederick in 2011) prevents him from getting on base and being an impact player offensively. Defensively, his glove has also regressed, accumulating a .934 fielding percentage in 2011. However, he had a respectable 4.36 RF/G last year, so it shows he is athletic and can cover plenty of ground defensively. The Orioles organization is hoping Rosa can bounce back in a strong way and show why he was signed as a 16-year old in the Dominican Republic. Getting back to Frederick in 2012 would mean Rosa is on the right track and starting to develop his potential.
12. Bobby Stevens, UTILITY (16th Round Pick in 2008 Draft)
Stevens has spent a lot of time in Frederick in his career and we could see him back again for 2012. Being a super utility player, he's able to play a whole host of positions, which adds a lot to his value. His ability to get on-base also helps his cause. For all four years in his minor league career, he's generally had an OBP 100 points higher than his batting average, hovering right around the .350 range. He may lack power (career .356 slugging percentage), but because he's able to play anywhere on the field and keep that OBP around .350, he'll stick around.
13. Tyler Kelly, 3B/OF (13th Round Pick in 2009 Draft)
Kelly is an on-base machine. He's considered by Baseball America as having the best strike zone discipline in the entire Orioles organization, and last year acquired the rare feat of having more walks than strikeouts. His 12.5% walk percentage in 2011 was Moneyball-esque as was his low 11.8% strikeout rate. Seeing as new Orioles Dan Duquette highly values players like Kelly, he might move through the organizational ladder a lot quicker and we're confident he'll get a look in Frederick this year. His power numbers for a third basemen are low, having just a .055 ISO last year, but his career .360 OBP — which incredibly is 94 points higher than his career average — will keep him around.
14. Jason Esposito, 3B (2nd Round Pick in 2011 Draft)
This very well could be one of the best hitting prospects to come through Frederick in 2012. Despite just getting drafted out of Vanderbilt, Esposito has enough talent to start the year in Advanced-A. He shattered the baseball at Vanderbilt, putting up a line of .330 / .405 / .514 in his three-year career, with his best year coming as a sophomore when he posted an incredible .599 slugging percentage. He was taken in the second round of the draft for a reason, and with him being a plus defender at the hot corner, this is a very valuable asset to the Orioles organization.
15. Tyler Kolodny, 1B/DH (16th Round Pick in 2007 Draft)
An injury last year will all but likely put the 24-year old Kolodny back in Frederick. After starting 2011 with the Keys, he put up decent numbers, which included a .402 on-base percentage. Then an injury caused his numbers to plummet and he was eventually put on the DL. Kolodny has shown decent power numbers in the past, getting a .552 slugging percentage and .292 ISO in Delmarva. His fielding has held him back a bit and relegated him more as a DH, but when healthy, he can be an asset with the bat.
16. Tyler Townsend, 1B (3rd Round Pick in 2009 Draft)
In a perfect world, Townsend at this point would be competing for a spot at AAA Norfolk. Yet, the world is never perfect. Townsend, who has put up monster numbers throughout his pro career, has been bogged down by injuries. In 67 games with Frederick last year, he hit .317 / .358 / .583 with a spectacular .412 wOBA and .266 ISO. However, a hamstring injury put him on the DL twice in 2011 and has stunted his growth as a player. He's had injuries in 2010 and 2009, making the injury bug a frustrating one for a player with this much talent. He could very well start the year in Bowie and never be in Frederick again, but if he's not fully recovered from his hamstring, he may very well be back in Frederick to start.
17. Aaron Baker, 1B (Traded from Pirates in exchange for Derrek Lee)
Traded for at the deadline in exchange for big league veteran Derrek Lee, Baker added a much-needed power bat to the Orioles' organization. His first stop after being traded was in Frederick and he just killed it. In 12 games, he had a slash line of .386 / .472 / .591. That gave him an immediate promotion up to Bowie, but his production went to a screeching halt thereafter. Yet to start the year back at Double-A, he'll have to compete with a healthy Tyler Townsend, and as Keys fans know, he's quite the first basemen himself. We wouldn't be surprised if Baker is starting the year in Frederick, which would give the Keys a solid bat in the middle of the lineup.
18. Michael Flacco, 1B (31st Round Pick in 2009 Draft)
Here's a name that's familiar to anyone who lives in or near Maryland. Michael, the younger brother to Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco, will likely see time with the Keys again this year, although he may have to start in Delmarva. There's a logjam at first base, and that may put Flacco down in Delmarva for the third straight year. In 50 games with Frederick, he had an ISO of .173 and slugging percentage of .473, which are behind his competition of Aaron Baker (.188 ISO, .481 slugging) and Tyler Townsend (.266 ISO, .583 slugging). Yet it's very possible Baker and Townsend will be out of Frederick by May – or even earlier – leaving room for Flacco to showcase his skills in Frederick this year.
19. Joe Oliveira, C (15th Round Pick in 2010 Draft)
When trying to look at the organizational depth chart for the Orioles, finding a catcher who fits at Frederick is tough. Ohlman and Dalles have high draft pedigrees, making them likely candidates to get time behind home plate, but they've lacked any offensive production. That's where Oliveira comes into play. Although he has just a career 27% caught stealing percentage and .982 fielding percentage, his offensive numbers were better than a lot of other catching prospects. In nine games with Frederick last year, he hit .308 / .357 / .538 and with Delmarva, he hit .325 / .389 / .438 before he ended the year on a 8-for-55 slump. With Ward all but gone to at least Double-A Bowie, Oliveira will get more of a chance with Frederick this year. He can hit just fine, but if his defense improves, we could see a lot of Oliveira this year.
20. Justin Dalles, C (6th Round Pick in 2009 Draft)
Drafted four consecutive times from 2006 – 2009, there's always been a lot of promise around Dalles. From high school to junior college to the University of South Carolina, the catching prospect put up big offensive numbers. So far, that hasn't translated to the professional level as he's hit .215 / .275 / .303, but has shown something defensively last year at Frederick, throwing out 46% of runners trying to steal, which is comparable to Brian Ward's incredible 53% caught stealing percentage last year. Dalles will likely start out at Frederick for the year, but whether he becomes the Keys' primary catcher is entirely too unpredictable.
21. Michael Ohlman, C (11th Round Pick in 2009 Draft)
Just a week ago, Ohlman suffered a vicious car wreck. Flipping his truck three times, it landed on its roof after a reckless driver crashed into him leaving the Orioles' minor league spring training complex. Ohlman only injured his shoulder in the crash, and as fortunate as he was, that's still a big blow to a big Orioles' investment. Ohlman was given just under one million dollars as a signing bonus – a record amount for a player taken after the tenth round. Yet so far, the results have been a mixed bag as he's hit just .217 / .312 / .301. He's showed a bit defensively, but the Orioles are hoping he starts to emerge in 2012 as goes up to Advanced-A. Unfortunately, that brutal car wreck complicates matters as to where he'll end up.
22. Dylan Bundy, RHP (1st Round Pick and 4th Overall in 2011 Draft)
This is the next great pitcher in MLB. When scouts say (anonymously) that Bundy, who is fresh out of high school, might be the best pitcher in the Orioles big league camp, that's saying a lot. He has previously hit triple digits on the radar gun and has five pitches – yeah five – in his arsenal to work with. Bundy's high school numbers are just silly. A 0.20 ERA with 158 strikeouts and five walks through 71 innings in his senior year is laughable. If you're doing the math, that's a K-rate of 20.0 per nine innings and walk rate of 0.63 per nine. Players out of high school don't normally start in Frederick, but there's a great chance this stud prospect is your Frederick Keys opening day starter on April 6th at Harry Grove Stadium. If so, bring your camera and get several autographs because he is that special.
23. Clay Schrader, RHP (10th Round Pick in 2010 Draft)
If Schrader is back in Frederick for 2012, it probably won't be for long. Aside from control issues, Schrader has put up spectacular numbers. For his two-year pro career in the minors, Schrader has a 1.71 ERA and an astounding 4.2 H/9 and 13.8 SO/9. He's ranked as the Orioles' 12th-best prospect and scouts love his fastball and curve, which are both seen as plus pitches. Also, despite being more of a fly ball pitcher (44.7 GB%), he's only given up three homeruns in his career, demonstrating how tough it is to make solid contact on his pitches. He does have command issues (career 5.9 BB/9), which will likely necessitate a return back to Frederick. But once he gets that under control, Schrader will really take off.
24. Nick Haughian, LHP (9th Round Pick in 2008 Draft)
We've already mentioned how players like Kenny Moreland, Scott Copeland and Jacob Pettit, who are older and have proven themselves at the Advanced-A level, will still have to repeat at Frederick for 2012. Well, we think the same will happen to Haughian. Despite being 25 years old and putting up solid numbers for the Keys last year (3.67 ERA, 1.289 WHIP), the addition of so many pitchers at the top of the organizational ladder will make it a lot tougher for Haughian to start out in Double-A Bowie. However, it would be great for Keys fans if they're able to have a proven 25-year old starter on the mound.
25. Kyle Simon, RHP (4th Round Pick in 2011 Draft)
Simon is a very promising prospect inside the O's organization. After overpowering batters while at the University of Arizona, Simon stepped right in to the pro ranks and found instant success, posting a 2.16 ERA and 0.840 WHIP in 2011. Scouts love his 6-foot-5 frame and Baseball America has Simon listed as the 18th-best prospect in the O's organization. Simon may not start out in Frederick, but if he continues his excellent play, it won't be long at all until he reaches the Advanced-A level.
26. Jesse Beal, RHP (14th Round Pick in 2008 Draft)
At just 19 years old, Beal was one of Delmarva's best pitchers in 2010, putting up numbers equal to top prospects Bobby Bundy and Ryan Berry. Named a SAL all-star after putting together a 3.86 ERA and tying for the team lead in wins, Beal put himself on the map in a big way. Then, all the hype ended after he injured his shoulder. Forced to miss the entire 2011 season, Beal will have to prove himself once again. Yet at 21 years old, he's still young and if he can bounce back strong, he'll still be considered a great prospect. With that in mind, we wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see Beal jump up to Frederick in 2012.
27. Tim Berry, LHP (50th Round Draft Pick in 2009 Draft)
It's rare finding a 50th round draft pick being considered an organization's better prospect. Yet for Berry, ranked by Baseball America as the O's 20th-best prospect, that's exactly the case. To be fair, he's not really a typical 50th-round pick. After torching batters in the San Diego area as a junior in high school, he suffered an injury his senior year, limiting him to just a few games. Most teams stayed away from Berry, who needed Tommy John surgery after his senior year, but the Orioles decided to take him in the last round of the draft. The risk has paid off so far. Showing top-ten round talent, he's impressed scouts so far. If he shines in Delmarva to start the year, he'll likely move up to Frederick but he has to cut down drastically on his walk rate, which in his two pro seasons, stands at 4.9 BB/9.
28. Matt Hobgood, RHP (1st Round Draft Pick and 5th Overall Pick in 2009 Draft)
Is this the year Keys fans get to see Hobgood? Drafted fifth overall in the 2009 draft, the Orioles had high hopes for Hobgood, but so far, he hasn't got past Low-A Delmarva. A career 4-15 record and 5.48 ERA, Hobgood especially struggled last year, posting an 8.76 ERA. It was discovered he was pitching with a slight tear in his rotator cuff during the season, so there's hope that if Hobgood can get healthy, he can get his fastball velocity back to 95 mph, which is where it was during high school. If he can get back to full health and have things 'click' for him this season, you can bet he'll be up to Frederick in 2012.
29. Kenny Moreland, RHP (Signed as non-drafted free agent in 2008)
Moreland is in a tough spot. He's excelled at the Advanced-A level, putting up a 3.41 ERA and 1.088 WHIP last year with Frederick, but like a lot of pitchers in the Orioles' system this year, there's nowhere to go. With the Orioles adding so many new pitchers to the organization this off-season, it puts a guy like Moreland in a tough spot. He's talented and he'll be 26 years old by opening day, which is pretty old for Advanced-A, but he's being bogged down by all the new pitchers at the top of the organizational ladder. We're predicting Moreland to repeat in Frederick, which is good for Keys fans considering his age and career 1.086 WHIP and 1.2 BB/9, but not ideal for Moreland.
30. David Walters, RHP (Signed as non-drafted free agent in 2009)
Once again, here's another very successful non-drafted free agent in the Orioles' system. Despite not holding any high-round draft pedigree, he earned the closer's role in Delmarva and he shined brilliantly in the position. Earning 30 saves in 2011, he nearly broke Delmarva's save record of 33. Walters is a groundball machine, holding an astonishing 73.8% groundball percentage last year, and better yet, he doesn't walk batters, holding a career 2.1 BB/9. It's pretty certain Walters will get a shot with Frederick in 2012, but with last year's closer Sean Gleason all but assured of starting with Bowie or Norfolk, it could very well be Walters on the mound closing out games for the Keys.
31. Jason Gurka, LHP (15th Round Draft Pick in 2008 Draft)
Gurka is a player who has completely gone off a lot of people's radar screens. Despite putting up a 1.088 WHIP and incredible 6.09 SO/BB ratio last year between Delmarva and Frederick, he doesn't get a lot of mention from scouts or analysts. Of course, it doesn't help that an injury in 2009 forced him to miss the entire year, or that he's a bit short at 5-11 and his fastball doesn't blow anyone anyway. Yet, when healthy, Gurka is extremely effective. For his career, he holds a 1.151 WHIP and very impressive 3.93 SO/BB walk ratio. As good as he was in Frederick, it's very unlikely he'll start out in Bowie, so expect to see Gurka back in a Keys uniform to start out 2012. And although he doesn't have the analysts drooling over his height or fastball velocity, he can force his way up the organizational ladder as long as he produces.
32. Ashur Tolliver, LHP (5th Round Draft Pick in 2009 Draft)
Being taken in the fifth round, there's a lot invested into Tolliver. So after the reliever struggled as a 22-year old in short-season ball, there was room for concern. Yet the power lefty has since played a lot more like a fifth round pick, cutting down on his walks and improving his strikeout numbers. From 2010 to 2011, his SO/BB ratio went from 1.81 to 3.06, and that improvement earned him a promotion to Frederick in mid-August. Yet he's almost certain to start out in Frederick for 2012 until he can fully prove himself at the Advanced-A level, which might not take long considering his potential and mid-90s fastball.
33. Scott Copeland, RHP (21st Round Draft Pick in 2010 Draft)
After getting promoted to Frederick in August, Copeland was in cruise control. In six starts, Copeland had a 2.14 ERA and 1.188 WHIP and carried that over to the playoffs, going 2-0 with a 2.24 ERA as he was a big part of the Keys' championship run. Yet as good as he was in Frederick, it's unlikely he'll start the year in Bowie. Six starts is too small of a sample size, so expect to see him in a Keys uniform to start the year where he'll have to prove himself again. He has an insane 73.0% career groundball rate, but being a groundball pitcher and not a strikeout artist, you'd like to see his 4.0 BB/9 get a little lower. If he can do that, it would elevate his game to another level, making it very difficult to keep in Frederick much longer.
34. Matt Bywater, LHP (7th Round Draft Pick in 2010 Draft)
Considered an advanced college pitcher, Bywater seems destined to land in Frederick in 2012. He had great numbers while pitching for Pepperdine University, finishing with a 2.40 ERA his last year in Malibu as he led the nation with four complete game shutouts. 2011 was his first year in pro baseball and while he struggled with his command (6.1 BB/9), his 10.1 SO/9 rate demonstrates he has the ability to also strikeout plenty of batters. Bywater may repeat at Delmarva to start the year, but this prospect has too much talent to not eventually get his chance in Frederick for 2012.
35. Jacob Pettit, LHP (42nd Round Draft Pick in 2010)
Here's another hidden gem inside the Orioles' organization. Drafted in the 42nd round, Pettit didn't even play Division I baseball, but he's torched the minor leagues so far. Pitching the second half of the year in Frederick, Pettit went 7-0 with a 1.62 ERA. We think Pettit will have to repeat at Frederick to start the year, but if he's even close to how he was last year, he'll get bumped up to Bowie in no time. Yet we'd be remiss if we didn't mention that Pettit might be due for some sort of regression. His BABIP in Frederick was .247 with an %88.5 LOB rate, helping to bring about a 3.69 FIP – considerably higher than his 1.62 ERA.
36. Mike Wright, RHP (3rd Round Draft Pick in 2011)
Considered the 11th-best prospect inside the Orioles organization by Baseball America, there's a great chance Wright will step up to Frederick in the latter portion of 2012. Wright had mixed results last year in what was his first taste of pro baseball, compiling a 5.72 ERA, but he was drafted in the third round for a reason. He dominated in his final year at East Carolina University and he has the tools to succeed. As long as he progresses, this highly regarded O's prospect will land in Frederick some time this year.
37. Chris Petrini, LHP (Signed as non-drafted free agent in 2010)
No matter where Petrini goes this season, his success in the pro ranks has been pretty remarkable. Going just 11-9 with a 5.29 ERA at Cal-Berkeley, Petrini didn't impress anyone. He had Tommy John surgery and an ankle injury while in college, greatly limiting his ability. The Orioles signed him as non-drafted free agent and after becoming fully healed and making a commitment to working out – Voila! Petrini instantly transformed into a great reliever. Yet despite his 2.08 ERA and 10.0 SO/9 last year at Frederick, the added pitching depth in the O's organization means the 25-year old will likely start out 2012 with the Keys.
38. Justin Moore, RHP (26th Round Draft Pick in 2007)
With the Orioles signing so many new pitchers this off-season, Moore becomes a likely candidate to repeat the year at Frederick. Although he put up a decent 3.40 ERA and 6.6 H/9 as a reliever with the Keys, the added depth in the organization at the AAA level will make it tougher for a guy like Moore to move up. Also, factor in his high 4.37 BB/9, and it makes even more sense to have Moore repeat in Frederick for 2012. Yet don't get us wrong, despite the control issues he had at the Advanced-A level, Moore has a solid track record. Through five professional seasons, the 22-year old has a career 2.93 ERA and 59.5 GB% to match a staggeringly-low 0.2 HR/9. He will eventually get his shot to move up to Bowie.
39. Tyler Wilson, RHP (10th Round Draft Pick in 2011)
After graduating from UVA last spring, Wilson stepped into the professional ranks in July and all he did was dominate. A tenth round pick, Wilson suited up for the GCL Orioles and Aberdeen Ironbirds and put together a 1.91 ERA and .727 WHIP through eight starts. He'll likely start out at Delmarva, but unless he regresses, Wilson will likely make it up to Frederick in 2012. Furthermore, Wilson is a first-class player off the field, winning the prestigious Lowe's Senior CLASS Award, given to the most outstanding senior student-athlete in Division I baseball.
40. Dan Klein, RHP (3rd Round Draft Pick in 2010)
If Klein didn't have any injury concerns, then he doesn't touch this list. Yet the injury bug seems to always pop up and bite Klein in the you-know-what. A torn labrum in his right shoulder derailed what was a spectacular 2011 season. Injuries plagued him when he pitched for UCLA, and for Orioles fans, they're hoping he shakes the injury bug because he has serious potential to be a good MLBer.

This biggest problem you have with a direct drive tail in finding a compatible 7.4v motor. If you put on the HBFP direct drive kit, it won't keep up due to it being an 11.1V motor as is the HBFP. I went to a direct drive tail when I had it at 11.1V with an Esky cp3 3n1. I flew really well. You just can't find a 7.4V good brushed tail motor. That is the biggest problem. You can get a brushless and get a converter, but tail response will be slow since the brushless motor cannot change speed as fast as brushed. I am going to build a direct drive (brushless) variable pitch tail for my old 9104 a little later once I get the 450 up and dialed in with the one I built for it. Then, no more tail motor problems.

Its Alive!!!
Hey 9104 people!
Remember the phrase: 'Just can leave well enough alone' ? Well, that describes me to the T.
Here are the latest mods of my 9104! It is really hard to even call it that any longer. Sure, it has the same frame, rotor, swash (from last 3 servo mod), and nose, but that is it. I drill out the tail holder and put a 450 boom. This holds my (2nd) DDVP tail and servo. I cut it to length and is about 1 inch longer. The servo is setting rather far back until I find another longer servo rod. I have a GY48V to control the tail. Inside the motor area is a 4400kv (actually had to cut part of the bottom out) running a 13T pinion. With the current main gear and at 2S (2200mah battery under the hood), it hits around 2600 (average) head speed at 90% throttle. A smaller motor will come later. If I want more, I drop in a 3S! But, I still have to test it first. I put an old 40Amp ESC in front and waiting on a 12Amp ESC for the rear. I think it should need 250 rear blades as the 1500kv might move a little too much air for this thing. At 8V avg, that would put it at 12000 rotor speed. It is slightly tail heavy, but a few ounces plumbers putty will do the trick in the nose. The next things really needed are a better tail grip (Tarot Thrust) and a metal swash.
It is just a test and if you are bored, as I was, you might attempt it, but do so at your own risk! Once it lives, it might have a mind of its own! I will keep the thread updated once the ESC gets in.

Yes, it the new tail motor is working! Working too good as it sounds as if it is getting full voltage and overpowering the torque of the main. Hmmmm. It should be with the throttle and turning just enough to hold. Then when you turn the nose right, it should speed up and left, slow down. Try rebinding the TX and RX. I never had that problem.

i reversed the blue and white wire for the tail motor now the tail spins counterclockwise and the main spins clockwise but the tail still spins all the time it still dosn't make a difference which position the transmitter is in and it spins at almost full throttle.

In the correct polarity, the motor will push air from left to right trying to counter the force of main motor. So, if you looking at the heli with tail nearest you, the tail will push air to the right. Why it continues to spin at full speed baffles me, also.

i'am wondering if the pc might be bad it spun so hard the tail hit a pole in my basement and i think that is when the tail went full throttle in either direction of the transmitter but not sure that was when i first put the new tail motor on

The problem you're fixing has bugged me for a long time, but I did not expect a practical solution. I haven't been in the relevant code for a long time, so my memory may be somewhat stale.

Sovereignty Is Far from Dead
Sovereignty Is Far from Dead
In his latest book, How Barack Obama Is Endangering Our National Sovereignty, John Bolton lays out what has become a consensus view on the American right. Those who argue that the United States must engage with international organizations to address global problems, he argues, are really saying we should "cede some of our sovereignty to institutions that other nations will also influence." And that, warns this U.N.-bashing former Bush administration ambassador to the United Nations, "is unquestionably a formula for reducing U.S. autonomy and reducing our control over government."
One wonders just where Ambassador Bolton has been for the past 362 years. Here's the truth: The United States regularly contravenes the 17th-century view of countries as autonomous entities, free of outside interference, and instead works with other countries to bring opportunity and greater safety to Americans. Asserting independence remains a preoccupation of some U.S. politicians-not to mention authoritarian leaders around the world. But their brittle interpretation of sovereignty is an old-fashioned, and even dangerous, notion in world affairs.

Hash: SHA1
Hi Joseph,
I've resolved this problem for myself by changind the order of lookups :
$>cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
group: pgsql files
passwd: pgsql files
but it'd be a good idea to compile add the ncsd (nis caching daemon).
then the file will look like this
group: cache files pgsql
as far as I looked at the code I think the problem is that there is no
failback when doing login_get_lastlog on other nis records but I've
found solution for me and I prefer not to patch the code (hope it gets
in stable releases sooner or later)

Because they are not files listed in the file list of the package. They
come about because the post install script in the rpm makes those links.

E-mail your questions to Christine at: firstname.lastname@example.com
How many grams of sugar is the limit for one day, and what is the difference between sugar and sugar alcohol?
Sugar alcohols are reduced calorie sugar substitutes that can be found in sugar-free candies, desserts, chewing gum, and other products. Sugar alcohols do not have as much effect on blood sugar in comparison to regular table sugar.
If a food contains more than 5 grams sugar alcohol, the American Diabetes Association recommends subtracting 1/2 of the sugar alcohol grams from the total carbohydrate in a food. For example, if a food contains 18 grams total carbohydrate and 6 grams sugar alcohols, subtract 3 grams sugar alcohol (1/2 the amount in the food) from 18 grams carbohydrate to equal 15 grams total carbohydrate.
A word of caution, sugar alcohols in excess can cause diarrhea and therefore should be used in moderation.
With regards to the amount of sugar to have each day... the thinking has shifted to counting total carbohydrates instead of only sugar. You should ask your doctor for a referral to a registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator to help you with the amount of carbohydrate you should consume.

OK, so are there any remaining reasons that SSL isn't a good fit for the problem?

SMOS End-to-End Performance Simulator (SEPS) now available
During the 'extended Phase A' of the SMOS mission an end-to-end performance simulator (SEPS- S MOS E nd-to-end P erformance S imulator) was developed, which is now available for the European science community. SEPS is a flexible software tool, which is modular and open to the integration of new routines and processing steps. The ultimate goal of SEPS is to enable industry and scientists to evaluate the SMOS end-to-end mission performance in a reliable and highly representative way.
EADS CASA Espacio (Spain) developed the SEPS software under funding from the European Space Agency (ESA).
Under the terms and conditions of ESA Contracts, EADS CASA Espacio owns the SEPS Intellectual Property Rights, while ESA has the right to grant applicants within the territories of ESA Member/Participating States (Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom), sub-licenses to use software for peaceful space purposes.

I swear this will be the last post about the holidays (from me at least). But I had some really great recipes that we used over Thanksgiving and how could I NOT share them with all of you? That would be pure evil😉
So with that, thanks to Jenn @PeasandCrayons for this wonderful idea! Can't wait to see what everyone else has to say!
First, since many of you asked about popovers, I thought I'd share the recipe we use in my family. We're primarily English on my mom's side so popovers are a staple at all of our holiday meals. Not to mention they're my favorite way to eat carbs. They taste like super fluffy bread/muffin things but they are extra eggy. Basically that was 80% of my Thanksgiving meal this year.
INGREDIENTS (from Joy of Cooking cookbook)
- 1 Village Baker Popover Pan
- 1 Cup Flour (whole wheat won't work)
- 1/4 tsp salt
34 large eggs
- 1 Cup Milk (whole milk is necessary)
- 1 tbl, unsalted butter melted
Prepare the pan with non-stick spray or butter. Preheat oven to 425 and set rack in the middle of the oven. Preheat popover cups for about two minutes.
In a food processor,(blender or hand mixer) blend the flour, salt, eggs, milk, and melted butter until the mixture is about the consistency of heavy cream (about 1-2 minutes).
Place 1 small piece of butter in each cup and place the pans back in the preheated oven until butter begins to bubble (about a minute).
Fill each cup half-way with batter and bake 20 minutes. Reduce temperature to 325 and continue baking for 15-20 minutes.
Note: We TRIPLED the recipe. But you need to make each batch separately or the ratios get messed up for some reason. Also, DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT open the oven once they have gone in or they will not pop!
Next up came my other specialty: dessert! I was responsible for the chocolate one so I found a chocolate pudding cake on pinterest
Hot Fudge Pudding Cake (From the Frugal girl)
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup flour
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup melted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 1/4 cups hot water (I usually boil mine)
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix sugar, flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder together in a medium bowl. Combine milk, melted butter and vanilla; add to dry ingredients. Stir gently to combine, then spread into an ungreased 8×8 inch baking pan.
Combine brown sugar, white sugar, and cocoa powder; sprinkle over top of batter. Pour hot water over top of cake, and bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 40 minutes. Let cool for 5-10 minutes, then serve in bowls with vanilla ice cream.
Those are this week's recipes!
Today's Elf4Health Challenge is to try a new workout so I'm going to Hour of Power Yoga with Hillary! She's one of my friends who just graduated and she's staying with us for the week. Expect lots of recaps of our adventures (she's certainly expecting them since she's one of the only people I know who actually reads this… Hi Hill)
Then we're going to cheer on our best friends (see two ladiez on left above) at their swim meet and reminisce over the good old days at dinner. What a life…
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
Did your friends ever come visit you that already graduated?

About FDA
Conditions for Assessment and Use of Fees (FY2010 PDUFA)
Back to Table of Contents: FY 2010 PDUFA Financial Report
The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) specifies three major conditions that must be met each year before prescription drug user fees may be collected and spent. A summary of these conditions and how FDA met them appears on page 2. A more detailed description of each of these conditions is provided below, with an explanation of how FDA met the conditions in FY 2010.
For making the calculations to determine if statutory conditions are met, an adjustment factor must be used. It is defined in Section 735(8) of the FD&C Act, as follows:
The term "adjustment factor" applicable to a fiscal year is the Consumer Price Index for all urban consumeres (all items, United States city average) for October of the preceding fiscal year divided by such Index for October 1996.
The consumer price index for October 2008, the October of the fiscal year preceding FY 2010, was 216.573. The consumer price index for October 1996 was 158.3. The result of dividing 216.573 by 158.3 is an adjustment factor of 1.368117 for FY 2010.
The first condition is based on Section 736(f)(1) of the FD&C Act. It states:
In general, fees under subsection (a) shall be refunded for a fiscal year beginning after FY 1997 unless appropriations for salaries and expenses of the Food and Drug Administration for such fiscal year (excluding the amount of fees appropriated for such fiscal year) are equal to or greater than the amount of appropriations for the salaries and expenses of the Food and Drug Administration for the fiscal year 1997 (excluding the amount of fees appropriated for such fiscal year) multiplied by the adjustment factor applicable to the fiscal year involved.
This provision does not allow FDA to collect or spend user fees unless FDA's total Salaries and Expenses appropriation (excluding user fees) each year are greater than or equal to FDA's FY 1997 Salaries and Expenses appropriation (excluding user fees) multiplied by the adjustment factor. FDA's total FY 1997 Salaries and Expenses appropriation (excluding user fees) was $819,971,000. Multiplying this amount by the adjustment factor of 1.368117, results in a minimum Salaries and Expenses appropriation for FY 2010 (excluding user fees, and rounded to the nearest thousand dollars) of $1,121,816,000.
In FY 2010, FDA's total Salaries and Expenses appropriation (excluding user fees and excluding rent to GSA, which was also not included in the FY 1997 appropriation amount) was $2,200,634,000. Table 7 displays how this $2,200,634,000 was calculated:
Table 7

Rent Payments to GSA (Not in 1997 S&E Appropriation)
Amount of Rent to be paid from Fees
Rent Amount Appropriated Excluding Amounts from Fees
FY 2010 S&E Appropriation Less Fees and Rent
Because the FY 2010 appropriations, after deductions for fees and rent, exceeded the FY 1997 adjusted amount, the first condition was met.
The second condition is stated in Section 736(g)(2)(A)(i): that fees "shall be retained in each fiscal year in an amount not to exceed the amount specified in Appropriation Acts, or otherwise made available for obligation, for such fiscal year…."
The President signed Agriculture, Rural Development, Food And Drug Administration, And Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2010 that specified the amounts from prescription drug user fees in FY 2010 ($578,162,000) on October 21, 2009 (Public Law 111-80). Therefore, the second condition was met.
The third condition in Section 736(g)(2)(A)(ii), states that fees:
shall only be collected and available to defray increases in the costs of the resources allocated for the process for the review of human drug applications (including increases in such costs for an additional number of full-time equivalent positions in the Department of Health and Human Services to be engaged in such process) over such costs, excluding costs paid from fees collected under this section, for fiscal year 1997 multiplied by the adjustment factor.
In FY 1997, FDA's actual obligation for the process for the review of human drug applications (excluding obligations paid from user fees) was $147,959,689, as reported in the FY 1997 Financial Report to Congress. Multiplying this amount by the FY 2010 adjustment factor of 1.368117, FDA's adjusted minimum spending for the human drug applications review process from appropriations (exclusive of user fees) was $202,426,000, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, in FY 2010.
In FY 2010, FDA obligated $358,587,181 from appropriations for the human drug applications review process. Because $358,587,1819 is greater than $202,426,000, the third condition was met.
Table 8 provides the amounts that FDA spent on the review process of human drug applications in FY 2009 and FY 2010, and the adjusted FY 1997 amount that had to be spent from appropriations in FY 2010. It also provides the amounts of these costs derived from appropriations and from user fees in each fiscal year.
