... Michael gave up an unusually high amount of walks by his standards (3 in 7 innings), and he also did not have the best strikes-to-ball ratio (68 Strikes, 46 Balls), but he still pitched a GREAT game.

In his first two starts, Lynn suffered what some Cards fans have taken to calling a "Lynning", an inning where he gets into trouble and gives up multiple runs.

... Lynn?s triumph was his third, tying him with Los Angeles? Zack Greinke for the National League lead this year but giving Lynn the most wins by a National League pitcher in the last three seasons at 36.

...
Lynn had given up three runs in the first inning of his last two starts
, both against Cincinnati. ?Once I got through the first inning, I was good to go,? he said, smiling.

?It looked like he had a little more life,? said Matheny. ?He also had a bit of urgency for his first time through the (batting order).?

Lynn said he had altered his preparation.

?I ran a little more before the game and I kind of tired myself out in the bullpen, where I rapid-fired before the anthem, just to do it,?
Lynn said. ?After the anthem, I threw my normal bullpen. I think that might be the way to go.?

Once again, Michael was high in the free passes department (3 walks in 5.67 innings), but he still managed to find his way out of trouble.

Michael gave up a solo home run today, and no other scoring.

4-0 overall in 4 starts so far this season.

Wainwright is unbelievable.

In addition to riding a streak of 25 consecutive scoreless innings and counting, Waino has not given up an extra base hit since Ryan Sweeney doubled off of him in the 6th inning on April 12th ...... 4 starts ago !!!

Former Cardinal Kyle Lohse has an excellent E.R.A. of 2.38, an exemplary W.H.I.P. of 1.029, and is averaging almost a strikeout per inning (31 strikeouts in 34 innings pitched) so far this season.

In his last 3 starts, Lohse has given up only 3 earned runs in 22 innings pitched, for an E.R.A. of 1.23.

Additionally, Lohse has had outstanding control in those last 3 starts, walking only 3 batters in those 22 innings, for an average of 1 walk every 7.33 innings pitched.

Although Michael Lance Lynn has has been the beneficiary of the best offensive run-support for a starting pitcher in all of baseball over the last 2 years, he has a very respectable E.R.A. of 3.30, and a similarly solid W.H.I.P. of 1.233.

Furthermore, Lynn is averaging more than a strikeout per inning (35 strikeouts in 30 innings pitched so far this season), and has only given up 3 earned runs in his last 3 starts (19 innings), for an E.R.A. of 1.42.

HOWEVER ...... Lynn HAS ALSO given out 9 free passes (8 walks and a hit batsman) in those last 3 starts/19 innings, for an average of 1 free pass every 2.11 innings.

      TT: Hyde's bullpen management is going to sink this team unless he changes

      By PsychoBird68 · Posted

      Talking about hollering before your hurt...LOL...our bullpen is tied for the most wins at 16 and have the most SVO at 33 and they have the 6th best ERA at 3.44 and that's the only reason we are 15 game above 500 and we're 9th in Innings pitched but we do have 9 losses as a bullpen but that could be a lot worse considering we only have 3 guys that has pitched consistent which is why Hyde has a short leash but I'm sure if he left some of those middle relievers in longer and we lost 8 or 10 more of them SVO you all would at least think he was managing the bullpen correctly.... SMH.....

      Over the 35.33 innings of his last six starts, Dean Kremer has given up only 10 earned runs for an ERA of 2.55. In four of those starts, he's gone 6 to 6.33 innings.

      Oooooh. Didn't expect that recall. I'm excited to see it! Bruce has been grinding it out a long time in Norfolk. He started the season looking good, and he started 2022 looking good against Major League talent. Can he peform in June 2023 the way that he performed in April 2022? I hope so. I'm here to see it! I like the idea of left handed starters. Because we have none in the rotation and I want to see 2 good ones sprinkled in. I've got my popcorn, and I'm looking forward to seeing what Bruce Zimmerman can do!

      Would you make this trade for Shane Bieber and Jose Ramirez

      By Filmstudy · Posted

      Let's start with Ramirez... 1) He'll be 31 in September 2) He's signed thru 2028 3) There is $105M remaining on his contract for 2024-28, for baseball ages 31-35 (he'll be 36 when the contract ends 4) His power production has dropped dramatically in 2023 despite the fact his FB rate has increased 5) His overall offensive production is the lowest it has been since 2015 (age 22) I think the Indians might be happy to offload this contract if they could find a taker to give them some minimal value for it and they are not in contention. My conclusion: If the Orioles like him for the money over the next 5 years, he might be worth a 3-for-1 exchange of truly unknow prospect potential, but not Westburg, Cowser, or GrayRod.  Think 1 of Prieto OR Willems plus 2 more hard throwers from Delmarva.  I would be seriously concerned about how a contract like Ramirez' would constrain the Orioles from signing Rutschman or Henderson to the sort of extension that will make them career Orioles.  Just like in football, where fans are tossing out 2nd round draft picks like they were party favors, I really dislike trading any top 100 prospect and certainly not one that comes with a strong possibility for an over-market priced contract. Bieber... 1) He's 28 as of 5/31 2) This is his worst season since his rookie year with a depressed K rate, increased BB and over 1 hit/IP, but he's still hanging in with an ERA that is somewhat better than the league average. 3) He's making $10M this season and will have his final year of arbitration prior to 2024, which makes the cost of him with a 1.5 year horizon bearable if you can assume he'll maintain his current 110 ERA+.  In addition, given the short horizon and age, that's a much smaller risk than for Ramirez. 4) This is where ME and his team come in to see if they can identify WHY he's not pitching nearly as well this season in addition to the obvious "Will he put the Orioles over the top?" My conclusion: Bieber may well be sought after, but I wouldn't trade any of Westburg, Cowser, or GrayRod for him.  I'd probably be willing to trade either Rom OR Ortiz plus another couple of live arms from the lower minors.  Westburg plus 2 Delmarva arms for both Ramirez and Bieber would be an enormous risk (see Ramirez), but I could get behind it if ME and team have decided he won't be nearly the offensive threat he is now in Camden Yards.
