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.

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:

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.

Yep Oriole killer,

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:

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.

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

First time out of the Eastern time zone. Good or bad?
