Has anybody heard, read or know what Gausman's innings limit is this year. He hasn't gotten the Bundy treatment, in terms of limiting innings, in the early going this season. He's already pitched 6 a couple times and at least 7, I think 3 times.

Duke himself has even said he can envision Gausman contributing at the ML level this season. But, due to his effectiveness, he has been pitching deep. I'm not even sure that if we brought Gausman up at some point later in the season that he would be able to contribute much before hitting an innings limit.

I do realize that he is different from Bundy in that Gausman was a college pitcher and I actually don't remember hearing what, if any, inning limit he had this season.

So just curious what others might have heard about this regarding Gausman.

LSU has him at 123.2 innings last year, I don't know if that includes the playoffs. He pitched 15 innings in the minors. 138.2 + 30 puts him at a rough cap of 170.

Awesome, thank you very much for the info. This makes me wonder if they will slow him down at any point, have him skip a start here or there or, if they end up bringing him up at all, have him pitch out of the pen late in the year. With him pitching this effectively so far he might not have too many innings to spare if they want to use him as a starter late in the year.

One of my friends works in the clubhouse at Bowie and he just called me and said that Gausman is touching 100 mph on the gun tonight.

Some folks there think the gun is hot.

It would be surprising to see him hit a legit 100 given what we have seen to date.

Do you know what his line is so far?

Thanks. I just looked up the box score a minute ago. Waring is off to a terrible start. He's 2 for 36 so far.

      Is anyone still sentimental about the pitcher win?

      By DrungoHazewood · Posted

      1) The win rule is a holdover from a long time ago, and they didn't really put too much thought into the starter goes five/reliever can get a single out thing because relievers in 1913 were mostly some random guy who came in when the starter was either hurt or gave up nine runs in 2/3rds of an inning. The details of the rule have mostly been out-of-step with reality since long before any of us were born.  2) Here's a list of several hundred players who hit at least .300, qualified for the batting title, yet had an OPS+ under 100. Patsy Tebeau hit .302 in 1894 and had a 75 OPS+, or lower than Ryan McKenna's career mark. The Mariner's Felix Fermin once hit .317 in a season where he had 11 walks and one homer, and had an 85 OPS+. Hall of Famer Lloyd Waner (perhaps only because the committee got his files mixed up with his brother Paul's) hit .316 yet had just a 99 OPS+, and was a below-average hitter for his whole career.

      Credit where it’s due to Melanie Newman

      I'm not familiar with Long's work outside of the Orioles, as I live out of town. I watch all of the O's games through MLB.tv. I really do not like Long. I think he makes the MASN broadcasts seem less credible compared to other team's broadcasts. I'm not a fan of Melanie Newman on play-by-play but I agree that I think she sounded better than usual the past two games.

      Meh...I missed Kevin Brown, but I didn't hate the broadcast. There were still errors, but if sounded smoother and better to me.

      So what do we take from this w/r/t Povich?  He is at 3.9, so slightly better than league average but still high. I would guess you still have to think he needs to improve on it but maybe improving on it can/will occur at the ML level, if he does indeed improve on it?

      A lot of people have a kneejerk negative reaction to anything that gets overhyped by the media or fans or social media. A song can come out and you might think it's really good.   But then it gets played again and again, and the artist gets overhyped, and someone who initially liked the song doesn't want to hear it ever again because they have a negative reaction to the hype.    Logically that makes no sense... if it is a good song it is a good song.   But that's how many people react. And the other thing at play is that the folks on here are a very small, special percentage of O's fans.   Ones that follow the team minutely on a daily basis, watch or listen to many games, and absorb much more content about the O's whether it's on TV/radio/newspapers/social media/online, than most fans do.   So if something is getting talked about a lot, we hear about it more than the more casual fan does.   And we may tire of it more quickly.

      3 walks today and no strikeouts. Kids on base is trending in the right direction.

      Well, take that up with the GG voters, because they certainly thought so.
