Couldn’t agree more. He’s come a long way. One of my biggest concerns about Mayo was how much he pulled the ball. This season he must have close to double digit opposite field homers. -

Wildcard said the same thing. Do high k guys throw more pitches? He declined to provide evidence. I think base runners are the main driving factor in higher pitch counts. -

I don’t think that’s really true at all and again, it’s one of those myths that I dont believe there is any evidence for. -

There is this revisionist view of him as some slop ball pitcher for his whole career. -
He was never considered a strikeout pitcher though. He was a guy who had most of his success on exceptional command, which produced a lot of weak contact, and as you said, he didn’t walk many batters. High strikeout pitchers tend to walk more guys which offsets not being as hittable a bit. -
The thread is “John Means, Playoff Starter” . John is not Greg Maddux or Grayson Rodriguez . He has his own means of being successful. (See how I did that?) The answer to the OP is yes, definitely and thankfully. -
If Coby Mayo hits a HR today and gets 2 RBIs, he'll put up a 30 HR, 100 RBI season - at 21 years old... ...and he's currently ranked as the O's 4th best prospect. It's a good time to be an O's fan.
