Aberdeen bullpen finished off the no hitter!

Who knows... maybe the O's are hoping that they'll get one good month out of Kremer like Zimmermann's April.

I'd say DFA Zimmermann too, but someone has to pitch innings this year.

True... but a first base coach can also look straight at the first baseman and yell "BACK" if there is a pickoff play on

Can I put my name into the lottery for a block of 4?

Is there any reason to think that the fault might lie with the first base coach?

Honestly... the US should just invade Canada and make it our 51st state. All that land, timber, oil. And hockey.

I think the O's may just have squeezed as many innings out of Zimmermann that they can squeeze

I've reached peak Zimmermann

Nailed it.

I'll bet he got in a lot of fights in middle school

They had a great bullpen that shut us down.

Cowser is 3 for 3 with 2 doubles tonight. OPS is creeping higher.

Hey you blokes! Ugh... Dave Johnson?

I'm really starting to worry about Adley

Hays with the BOMB

The raindrops knocked it down

Mills looks like my plumber

Heck... I'm still mad they traded away Don Baylor

He won't be sent down. The O's need him to eat innings, even if he gives up 5 runs in 5.2 innings

He had to dig out of a horrible .197 batting average in April, where he still managed a .754 OPS. He rebounded nicely in May (289/366/500/866). I just noticed his reverse splits. His OPS against RH is .909 (142 AB), his OPS against LH is .524 (32 AB SSS).

MLB.com has a slightly shorter timeframe for lat strains in their glossary. "Recovery time varies depending on the strain, with Grade 1 strains typically requiring 2-3 weeks and Grade 2 strains usually taking at least a month. Grade 3 strains often require surgery, however, and can come with considerably longer recovery periods."

They're both below sub-par. Neither would likely be a part of a broadcast team for any ML team. To me Newman is trying too hard, searching for her own style but overdoing it almost all the time. I want her to succeed but she needs a lot of refinement. I miss Mel Proctor and John Lowenstein.

Why do I have this feeling that we won't see him pitch to AAA hitters until September?

Maybe Grayson actually told Britton "This is stupid. I'm dominating these schmoes like little leaguers. I don't want to pitch anymore unless it's in a jersey that says 'Baltimore' or 'Orioles' on the front."
