Why hurt the bullpen and the rotation? Not a good idea. Maybe on McFarland.

Exactly. T.J. will be the only candidate from that group. Not only are Matusz and Hunter very valuable out of the pen, but the pen suits both of them better. They both struggle after 5 innings and get worse the second and third time through the lineup. Both can throw harder out of the pen.

I suspect Jurrjens will get the first shot. I don't think he will succeed. After that, I want to see Gausman up.

Looks like the two-off-day week couldn't have come at a better time. Maybe Chen doesn't even need to go on the DL.

If he does...Arietta has outpitched Jurrjens at AAA, hasn't he? Tillman appeared to be dead as a prospect around this time last year, but he came back midseason and has since established himself as a solid starter. Maybe Arietta can be this year's Tillman.

Bundy even thought he is injured and not an option. Just naming our guys lol.

Yeah I purposely didn't mention him because of the injury (which sucks!). It'll

probably be Mcfarland or Jurrjens. Gausman needs some more time down there.

    • If any combination of Irvin, Flaherty, Fuji, Baumann with the locks of Gibson, Webb, Wells, Hall, Coulombe, Cano, Perez are all in the bullpen im not sure we need 13 pitchers.    Is 3 long men really needed(Gibson/Irvin/Flaherty) with days off? Hall/Wells can go more than 1. No doubt Kremer would be the one who could turn it up out of the BP opposed to Gibson BUT if Kremer can give you a start of 5 good innings as a 4th starter thats hard to pass on. -- Hyde wants to play matchups like crazy of late so i do think they'll take 13. O's love close games, old extra inning rules could be a factor in need for more length. 
    • Mullins too.  Seems like only Adley has been fairly hot lately.  Hopefully Mountcastle's double tonight will get things going for everyone else.  Fingers crossed the several days off they'll get next week will help reenergize things.
    • I got through the gate at 5, was in line 4:45ish? And got a hoodie. It was pretty packed. Think some people just went for the hoodie though and then left early.    it was a different vibe at the ballpark, totally full, but people were just chilling and having fun, not really paying attention to the game, since the game itself didn’t mean much 
    • Happy that the Mariners are done. 
    • Bradish game 1 starter, Rodrigues game 2, Gibson game 3, Means game 4, all on short leashes with Kremer, Wells, Baumann, Webb, Hall, Coulombe, Cano and Perez in the pen....Henderson, Rutschman, Santander, Mountcastle, O'Hearn, Hays, Mullins, Westburg, Urias, Frazier, Hicks, McKenna, Mateo, McCann
    • I can see why people would say a WS win would solidify him as an elite GM but as pointed out the playoffs are a crap shoot. Elias isn’t at fault if the pitching craps the bed or if the bats go cold.    He already is elite. He’s stocked this franchise with more good young talent than we could have hoped. As long as the Orioles keep making the playoffs and as long as he keeps good talent coming through the system that’s what he’ll be judged on. In addition to being at the vanguard of how to pick up guys like O’Hearn, etc., that’s important too. 
    • Gibson starts game 3 on the road and Means starts game 4 with Kremer in the pen as the longman with Means and Gibson on very short leashes...
