Michael Lorenzen is right there and has had more recent success (and he offers much more reason to expect near-term success), but sure, let's roll with the ghost of Julio Teheran as our insurance against further rotation injuries. Y'know, it would be really cool if the Orioles actually acted like a team that wants to win right now instead of punting another offseason, but I guess we might as well appeal to the thunderstorm.
Yes, I am being somewhat hyperbolic here, but it's about a month until opening day and Dean Kremer is currently projected to be our #3 starter behind a #2 with less than a year of MLB experience and we are one injury away from Julio Teheran or Bruce Zimmerman being in the MLB rotation. That doesn't exactly project "WS contender" vibes.
And before anyone takes umbrage with my use of the term "punting" to describe this offseason, I will preemptively point out that Burnes and Kimbrel were lateral moves, not upgrades- Burnes merely replaced Bradish, whose potentially season-ending injury was already known to the organization at the time of the trade, and Kimbrel was signed specifically to fill in for Bautista while he recovers from TJS. There have been no actual upgrades made to the team this winter.
So yeah, we punted. Again.
But hey, maybe Teheran will be better than Matt Harvey and Wade LeBlanc if we end up having to run him out there in games that actually count.
