The Astros pitcher has thrown all of 3 innings all year. Lets see what our offense does with HIM.

I remember hr had a dominant game against us when he first came up in (2013?)

He has missed almost all season due to blisters.

Oberholtzer has actually had two dominant starts against the Orioles. In 2013, he pitched seven shutout innings against the Birds in his first major league start. Last year, he gave up just one run in seven innings.

YEAH But its unlikely with his sole outing a 3 inning stint he will be able to go more than 5.

Do we know if he has made minor league rehab starts?

Has any pitcher ever missed all but 3 innings of 2 full months solely with blister issues? I know Josh Beckett had them but don't recall him missing that long.

It will be good to get out of the rough, tough AL East and play our Texas "cousins" - I wonder when Hader will make his seven inning shutout debut? :scratchchinhmm:

Get out of the "tough" East and play the best team in the AL.

I was gonna say. Not downplaying blisters at all, but that's a run of bad luck there! To miss almost two months for blisterS? Poor guy.

Hypothetical question to ponder...

If the Orioles play a baseball game, but OFFNY is not around to start a game thread with his colorful lineups, did the Orioles game really happen? :scratchchinhmm:

Couple of us got his back in case. So we NEVER have to go through that fearful scenario!

    • Here's the thing about Hyde pulling Irvin with only 75 pitches, according to his comments after the game... In previous games it was mentioned that each reliever is told who they might be facing prior to the game so they could prepare. Hyde said he had the middle of the order coming up and it was the 7th inning. Essentially what he was saying was they were sticking to their script no matter what. And personal conjecture: The last strike thar Irvin threw to strike out his last batter was a cookie right down the middle and it just happened that the batter wasn't looking for a fastball so he froze up. I think that Hyde saw the location of that pitch and it also contributed to his decision. Now it doesn't mean I agree with it because I thought we could have at least preserved Danny Coulombe for tonight's game if we had let Irvin try to get through another inning. He was doing great. But whatever. Hyde knows what he is doing and the victory is all that really matters in the end. Irvin gets a W on his resume and the Orioles gets a team win. There's nothing to be upset about with that.
    • I don’t know how half the people on here watch the games or follow the team between the worrying and negative Nancy’s.  We give up a run early the game is over or as soon as the lineup comes out declaring we just punting this game.  I have learned with baseball more than most sports you never know what will happen.  Your 26th man on the roster might get the huge hit to win the game.  In basketball your 10-13th man on the roster might get a few minutes in garbage time but never really change a game.

    • Your poll is now at 114 - 1. No serious discussion is warranted here.
    • This is why it’s smart to wait until closer to the trade deadline to buy bullpen help. It may be more expensive, but you have a much better idea of what kind of pitcher you’re trading for and what help you need. Relief pitchers are just so volatile from year to year. If we would have tried to trade for Scott during the offseason, we would have had to overpay thinking he could be the same guy as last year, and then we’d be really disappointed with the way he’s pitched so far this year. I enjoy all of these different trade scenarios, but I’d have to see a relief pitcher pitch well this year before I’d be willing to give up anything close to Povich. Povich himself could end up being the help we need in the bullpen later in the season. 
    • DirtyBird is just a troll. Read his comment history. Nothing of value has ever been offered to a discussion. Facebook/twitter level responses. 
    • O’Hean said as much to Roch a few weeks back.   “When it’s mentioned that O’Hearn’s numbers against left-handers aren’t strong, with a career .171/.244/.297 line and five home runs in 194 plate appearances, O’Hearn says, “My career numbers overall aren’t great. Not just against lefties.”” https://www.masnsports.com/blog/this-that-and-the-other-1-52#:~:text=297 line and five home,last year%2C” he said.
