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!

      Who Should Be Extension Priority #1?

      By deward · Posted

      If you're projecting a future lineup without Mullins in 2026, then EBJ is a reasonable placeholder name to put in there. I would assume most people understand that it's not a sure thing to work out that way.

      My annual head first slide thread

      By webbrick2010 · Posted

      Every year players are injured sliding head first into bags or even worse home plate. Just noticed that EBJ has a head injury from sliding head first into home (really dangerous and stupid) I'll say it again, what analytics driven organization will be the first to ban head first slides for all of their players I remember when David Sequi was a decent player and ended his career with a serious hand injury sliding head/hand first into home. Cal never slid head first, and wouldn't have been the iron man if he did.

      Time Gunnar's triple

      Oh, I don't know. I thought when accusing someone of wild malpractice over possibly, maybe, slightly speeding up highlights that kind of opened the door to a little goofy exaggeration.

      The A's Series

      By interloper · Posted

      I was going to post something about this after reading about that on MLBTR this morning. That gives me a lot of hope for Bradish if this kid can come back from a UCL sprain and throw 103. Obviously, reliever vs. starter so who knows. But uplifting to read nonetheless.

      Hollocher hit almost exclusively 2nd in the order. The Cubs' 3rd hitters (and it was the Cubs, not the Indians as I previously stated) were mostly Marty Krug, Zeb Terry, and John Kelleher. Krug was awful for a 1922 3rd-place hitter, with an 83 OPS+ in his only season as a MLB regular, but he only struck out 43 times in 524 PAs. Terry was worse, OPS+ing 74, but with just 16 Ks in 571 PAs. And Kelleher was the worst of the bunch, OPS+ing 60, while striking out 14 times in 222 PAs. Cubs manager Reindeer Bill Killefer stuck hard and fast to the old rule of thumb that the catcher should bat 8th, even if it's Bob O'Farrell and he hit .324 with an .880 OPS. Ray Grimes had a 1.014 OPS and batted cleanup. But Hack Miller and his .899 OPS batted mostly 6th. Statz wasn't a terrible leadoff hitter, was one of only a couple players who had a SB% higher than 50%, but was 6th among their regulars in OBP. That's as bad a bunch of #3 hitters as I've seen in a while, yet the Cubs finished 80-74-2. Just goes to show you batting order doesn't really matter. Anyway, back to the main point... yes, I'm sure some of Hollocher's CS were busted hit-and-runs. But nobody that regularly batted behind him struck out in even 7% of PAs so they shoulda been putting the ball in play the vast majority of the time.

      4/25: Bowie Wins, Only Team Above .500

      By Frobby · Posted

      How many people actually said they were one of the greatest teams ever?   They did hit the snot out of the ball the first 9 games of the year, mostly in a 6 game series in a very hitter-friendly ball park against a bad pitching staff.  That said, they’re still second in the league in runs per game.  Their pitching has been problematic, yielding 6.50 runs per game.
