If Grayson comes back healthy and there are no other injuries, the options are (1) 6 man rotation, (2) Means or Irvin in the bullpen or (3) Kremer optioned to AAA (or in the bullpen). Kremer being optioned is the only choice that avoids a DFA and the only choice that keeps all of the 6 SP on SP schedules. The DFA would be Baumann and I’ll personally not lose any sleep over that, but I think the Orioles clearly want to hang onto him. I suppose they could option Akin instead, but I find that the most unlikely given how well he’s pitched. It’s certainly no lock that the route they choose would be optioning Kremer but you’re ignore the factors impacting roster construction if you don’t think it’s a possibility. -

It's a bit soon to consider benching Mountcastle against RHP when his OPS is .711. Maybe you give Mountcastle the occasional rest day against tougher RHP starter, but I'd wait to see where is splits are in another month. -

Kremer’s chances of ending up in AAA are zero unless it’s a rehab. -
There is some projection there. Tough not to imagine him not being a 20 HR guy in Baltimore. If he can maintain a high average/OBP that is definitely good enough to start in a corner with his defense.
