Steve Johnson would be a better choice for the final bullpen spot than Alfredo Aceves or Kelvin De La Cruz, regardless of option status.
Ditto that.

There's not any of these three that deserves it any more than does Evan Meek.

According to Roch:

Triple-A Norfolk's Steve Johnson will undergo an MRI on his right shoulder in Baltimore after leaving last night's start after two innings with more discomfort. Johnson had been on the minor league disabled list with shoulder tendinitis.

"We came close to taking him and decided we wanted to let him have one more outing down there, make sure he's OK," Buck Showalter said. "I'm glad we didn't put him in harm's way up here. His velocity was down, too."

4 walks in only 2.33 innings.

Johnson continues to struggle very badly with his control.

The only good things about this outing are that he pitched into the 3rd inning and got 7 outs overall (unlike his previous 2 outings), and that he struck out 4 batters.

Im thinking that the membership numbers in the Steve Johnson Fan Club have dwindled some....

Maybe.

But since this is only his 3 start since returning from injury after being sidelined for more than 2 months, perhaps they are just putting him out there for 50-60 pitches for his first few starts, then maybe 60 or 70 pitches for his next few starts, etc. so that he can try to gradually regain his arm strength, and telling him not to worry about the results (for now.)

I hope so, anyway.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      First, the had a jump in 23’ given how terrible they had been previously, which conditions many fans in the marketplace not to care. They simple weren’t relevant for years. So one very good regular season will not undue years of being bad/irrelevant and treating your customers terribly. Next, I think they missed an opportunity in the offseason by not doing enough by way of big/bold attention grabbing moves. Now I acknowledge that this was most likely due to the ownership flux/transition. I believe they got an attendance/marketplace engagement boost when they changed owners and when they traded for Burnes. However, I believe we would have seen more engagement attendance with say a big Gunnar extension and/or bringing in a big time FA.   IMO this would have created more buzz before the season (say around the time people make season tix decisions - IMO before Christmas is when some people make those bigger purchases). All of this is to say, that it will take time and effort on the organizations part because of how bad of a stain that the Angeloses left. I still have friends and colleagues who refuse to support the Orioles and attend games due to the damage that was done. Rubenstien & co are not going to be able to undo 30 years of awfulness overnight. But IMO it is not enough to simply call it “a new chapter”. They have to make new/different actions to distinguish themselves from who the Orioles were/used to be under the Angelos regime.

      Just checking in on Gameday, Yankees looking incredibly vulnerable.  Should be the Os out there.  Super lame.  Whichever team wins this series I hope gets knocked out by CLE or DET.

      If the franchise were better, the fan base would be too.  It’s been a rough 40 years.

      Machado just hit a 2 run home run off of Yamamoto.  I hope the Orioles young players are taking notes.

      ALWC Game 1 Attendance

      By CTBear · Posted

      Yeah it was priced initially the same as the ALDS games, same as last year. Nobody was rushing to pay those prices. And by the time the tickets reached appropriate levels, by the Orioles lowering their prices or the secondary market coming down in price, fans have like 24 hours to figure out their plans to attend a mid afternoon game. It’s just not worth getting upset about — we still had an awesome crowd and the only thing missing was an offense to ignite it.
