I think Kremer will be in the pen for the playoffs. I think he can be a weapon out of the bullpen for us this year. Next year I imagine he will pitch in the rotation and continue to improve. I see this guy pitching in MLB for a long time. He has the drive and desire to be great. He improves and adapts as he goes along. I think they need to try and add and impact starter in the off-seasons and push competition. I’d like to see two impact relief arms as well. I’m not in the “the sky is falling” camp right now, but the last few weeks have shown the importance of high quality depth. You can’t have too much talent.

I bought tickets from the Birdland members presale. My wife and I have a 13-game plan. When it said you could only buy one set of tickets per series, I assumed that meant one pair for the Wild Card Series, one for the ALDS, and one for the ALCS. But I'm seeing people online say that they bought tickets for two games in the ALDS and one for the ALCS. I didn't realize that I could distribute my three games any way I wanted. Now I'm annoyed that I wasted tickets on two series that might not happen at all. -
The Orioles have one more loss at home than on the road. So I would say about the same. The Rays on the other hand are .663 at home (53-27) vs. .553 on the road (42-34). The Orioles have Bradish and GRod going against the Nationals, at home, after a day off. They should win those games. If they win tomorrow, too, the deed would be nearly done by Wed. Winning tomorrow is not essential, they would be still in good shape with a loss. But it would help to avoid going deep into the week to resolve this. -
Do you need five starters in a playoff series? I think you only need four. In fact, your #1 could pitch three times in a seven-game series. Bumgarten (sp?) used to do that for SF and dominate.

Jim Palmer said John Means pitched himself into the #2 spot of the Playoff rotation. I agree. Especially because it gives us a 1, 2, 3 punch between the contrast mix of Means being a finess LHP compared to the RHP Power Pitcher that Grayson is starting right behind him. 1. Kyle Bradish 2. John Means 3. Grayson Rodriguez 4. Kyle Gibson or Dean Kremer 5. Manager's discretionary choice. (See how the series is going and decide a plan.) I kind of wish we had another LHP who would be good enough to mix into the rotation because if you can mix thins up successfully it prevents the other team from getting away with being 1 dimensional. -

John Means looked like an Ace tonight. I agree with Jim Palmer who said that Means pitched himself into the #2 spot of the playoff rotation. So the way I currently see the playoff rotation... 1. Bradish 2. Means 3. Rodriguez 4. Gibson/Kremer 5. Kremer/Gibson
