Pitched pretty well. Gotta say I'm surprised. Triple-A was rained out tonight. Anyone know who was supposed to pitch?

The Orioles have optioned RHP Kevin Gausman to Triple-A Norfolk. A corresponding roster move will be announced before Friday?s game.

I think Stinson.

He's either back, or skipped and then Chen comes back.

Hmm. Britton, Arrieta, and Wada are the obvious candidates. I vote Britton.

Wall to Wall Just announced this just happened.

I'm thinking this is for a BP arm and then he's back up. Or maybe Britton.

Wada you kidding me? See wada I did there? No thank you. Britton maybe but they are short on BP arms for now.

It is definitely for a bullpen arm. I think it Raush? Britton comes back for KG's turn?

Makes sense.

Was just watching MLB Tonight and saw this. I kind of like the kid and would have liked to see him make his next start.

So is all of this because Flaherty made a bad feed to JJ on that ground ball by Ellsbury in the 7th?

And I agree that Britton is the best bet to get Gausman's turn when it comes up again (does it line up, or perhaps they make it line up?). Rauch may be the guy, we'll see...

If Britton does make the next start and pitches well, I imagine he'll keep it until he blows it again.

Friend works with the O's, boss says it's Wada just to get the arm up here. Hoping he's wrong, but he usually isn't.

15 page thread to follow. ;-)

KG will back pretty soon. This is just a roster crunch situation.

[Brooks The Great]

Wouldn't this mean Britton gets called up?
