41K / 15BB, 6HR

QS: 0

</b>

Bundy pitched very well against the Indians in his last start and will look to duplicate that success here against the Rockies who he has never faced. Bundy's BAA is still extremely high and troubling, but he is at least able to pitch well from the stretch which does wonders for damage control. Unless something horrible happens, it looks like Bundy is in the rotation to stay this season, so let's see what the kid's got.

Jon Gray

(6-4)

4.12 (1.16/.229)

111K / 33BB, 12HR

QS: 11

Gray actually looks like he may have a bright future in the majors. After a rough two starts in April (11.42), he bounced back in May (4.17), June (3.77) and July (2.05) and has continued to get better as the season goes on as shown by tossing 11 starts with game-ERAs under four. Of course, he has never faced the Orioles.

Well, that's why you play the games. Tillman tossed a stinker and "some guy" known as Bettis pitched a hell of a game for the Rockies who get the win 6-3 setting up the unexpected rubber match tomorrow with Bundy against Gray. The Rockies actually have a pretty solid ballclub. I guess their pitching just got off to a rough start because both De La Rosa and Bettis pitched extremely well and their bullpen hasn't looked that bad either. The Rockies gave away the first game which they probably should have won or at least should not have ended when it did in the 10th inning. We shall see how it goes tomorrow before playing the make up game against the Twins and heading off to Toronto.

Another toss up. Gray has been pretty solid for the Rockies most of the season while Bundy is just getting his feet wet as a starter. I think it's only a matter of time (as it always is) until the league figures him out and he starts getting hammered, but I don't think that moment is here just yet. Gray should put up a fight, but how much is yet to be seen while it really could go either way for Bundy.

Toronto and New York both won their third in a row today with Toronto winning in the 12th inning after falling behind 6-4, they scored three runs in the bottom of the inning and won the game on a wild pitch. The Yankees handed Houston their second loss in a row just to show how well the Yankees are playing right now and have now won eight of 10. They are now only four back of the WC and have closed to 6.5 of the Orioles, but I seriously doubt they have a shot at the division. It sure would be interesting having four teams vying for first, though. Meanwhile, Boston lost their second in a row to Detroit falling to third place with Toronto's win putting them a half game in second and two games behind the Orioles. They are putting themselves in good position to do some damage when the Orioles go to Toronto in a few days. Cleveland, Detroit and Chicago all won today with Chicago having won four in a row and KC has lost three in a row and seem to be dead in the water with injuries having derailed them this year. Texas is down to the A's in their game now and Seattle won their game today sitting 4.5 back of the WC with Houston having fallen two games back at the hands of the Yankees. The Rockies are six games back of the NL WC and have no shot catching the Giants for the division.

      Dean Kremer 2024

      By interloper · Posted

      I mean you're right, but it never seems like he adjusts quickly enough within the start to me. For whatever reason I have an easier time pointing to obvious things that went wrong in his starts than other guys. It might be in my head, who knows. He's one of those guys that just seems like he should be better than he is, even though he's already pretty good. You can see a few things he could do differently to get to the next level, but he's kind of plateaued at his current level.

      Jud Fabian, 2024

      By RZNJ · Posted

      Time will tell but when I watch Peyton Burdick with Norfolk he sells out for power way more than Fabian and he’s been able to have an extended cup of coffee in MLB and Fabian might be a better defender. Rooting for more nights like last night even if the home run numbers suffer a little.

      Well, I wouldn’t assume changes in pitch mix from game to game are entirely on Kremer.   He goes to the mound with a game plan that has been developed by the coaches and front office and the catcher is heavily involved as well.   I don’t think Kremer just goes out there and says “I think I’ll ditch what worked last time.”

      How should we look at FA contracts going forward?

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      He’s going to do what Houston and Atlanta do. Those are your models. The payroll will still be high, especially when these guys get into their arb years but they aren’t going to go crazy in free agency. Build through your system, whether it’s promotions or trades and sign the occasional players to fill in the holes. That’s the way they will do it and it’s the best way to do it.

      Looks for comfortable and natural there as he gets mor reps, IMO.  No longer looking like a fish out of water.

      Spend like a drunken sailor. I want Rubenstein's bank account to be $0 when he passes away.

      By Too Tall · Posted

      This is spot on. If Rubenstein means what he says, (Eilas/Sigbot will run the show) the question is what will Elias do with more resourses? How is Elias going to meld free agencey with a bigger budget and team needs going forward. I do not see Sigbot buying into long term high dollar deals for pitching. Particularly for 30 plus year old pitching. I feel any long term deals will be calculated around mutual advantage for team and player with as little risk as possible. I sure don't see Sigbot paying out eight years for three to four years potential benefit.
