He made his first start of the season and it was not pretty. I watched the game and his stuff looked very poor. His stuff is not great so I see why his prospect status is low though he had good numbers in minors. He still may make it but he will have o have pin point control.

Thanks for the update.

I was wondering why it was only his first start of the season, and I saw that he started the year at AAA-Colorado Springs.

It will be interesting to see how he does as the season progresses.

Prior to missed play in CF, Davies was fortunate to not have more runs scored. McCutchen was caught stealing in the first before a a walk and a single. He issued three walks and didn't get many swings and misses.

It's only one start.

Potential back-end guy that will take his share of lumps. That's nothing to sneeze at from a value standpoint -- cheap arm is a cheap arm.

Davies has a 5.75 ERA and a 1.556 WHIP after 7 starts so far this season.

I'd like to see at least 7 or 8 more starts to see if he can show some signs of recovering from his rough start to the season.

In four starts in May he's 2-2, with a 3.97 ERA, batters are slashing .220/.286/.439/.725 with a 15/8 K/BB ratio in 22.2 innings. That's not bad for his rookie year.

He's performed as you said he would.

That's not bad for his last 4 starts (when that post was made.)

For his rookie year overall, he was very bad early on and has rebounded nicely since, especially with the 8 shutout innings that he threw today against the Cardinals.

    • First game up this season.  He played a whole 2 games in the field in the MLB last year and might have been a little nervous that it is a sign that the team doesn't trust him in the field.  
    • I wonder if Kjerstad will be back in Norfolk when the team returns to Baltimore.
    • 3/15 base is the rumor, which breaks down to a 2/12.2 extension after his rookie deal expires.  That's an absolute steal, and even with a huge amount of incentives, I can't believe the Ravens got him to sign this cheaply.
    • Anyone notice him smiling as he got into the box for his final at bat?   I think he was feeling a little better about life after making solid contact twice in a row.  
    • I would feel better about this game if he would foul off a few close ones with 2 strikes-like Kjerstad did last night-instead of just watching them go by. Take those pitches on the outside to the opposite field.  If your expecting 1 pitch but get another, fight it off. I'd be happy with another hit before another 15 ABs go by. Maybe throw in a few 95+ EV in there too.
    • His path to staying in baseball is as a utility player. The more positions he can play, the more likely he is to stay in the league. Good for him. But I don't anticipate him back in Baltimore. We saw them go Kjerstad when Hays even though the team is very lefty heavy. With Mateo getting looks in CF and Cowser able to play there for a bit, there really isn't any role that he's next in line for (or even 2nd or third in line). Even learning 2B doesn't get him in a next in line position given Norby.  
    • In my book, he’s had two outings that were awful and three that were decent, including yesterday’s.  My guess is that if he has a decent outing on the 27th, the O’s won’t go through gymnastics to try to find a way to extend his rehab, even though his ERA has been a train wreck.
