His five home runs came within his first three games, hitting two on Wednesday, one on Thursday and two more on Friday. His two multi-home run games were the second and third of his career. In three of his games, he reached base safely at least three times.
Among Triple-A East Players, Bannon ranked first in total bases (23), home runs, on-base percentage, slugging percentage and OPS, while ranking second in RBI and batting average (T2nd). It was the third Player of the Week honor Bannon has earned in his career. He earned his other two in 2018, where he won the California League honor with Rancho Cucamonga from May 28 to June 3 and June 18 to 24. He’s the first Norfolk Tides hitter to win Player of the Week since Jace Peterson won it for the International League from July 8 to 14, 2019.
Bannon is currently ranked as the Orioles’ 20th best prospect according to MLB.com. He was originally acquired by the Orioles on July 18, 2018 in a trade with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Along with Bannon, the Orioles acquired Breyvic Valera, Yusniel Diaz, Zach Pop and Dean Kremer in exchange for Manny Machado.
