Kevin Gausman Today, 2014.

[LA2]

Gausman's best start in his yet brief career start was against the Tigers, when he allowed 1 earned run in 6 innings (5 H, 0 BB, 4 K).

A lot depends on Tillman's health.

oo

A 2-run home run in the 1st inning, followed by 3 goose-eggs.

82 pitches in only 4 innings.

Not a very good strikes-to-balls ratio (48 Strikes, 34 Balls.)

The strikeouts are nice but 82 pitches in 4 innings is not.

If the FO is willing to let him develop as a starter then he needs considerably more baking time.

He'd need less time to step up and give us 2 innings 2-3 times a week where there's a good chance he'd be quite valuable.

Keep him in the rotation at Norfolk during the summer. Bring him up to the bullpen in September.

Please let Gonzo be okay. Gausman is not ready. We really need SJ back for a spot start or two.

You say Gausman isn't ready and Steve Johnson is your solution?

#flabbergasted

[El Gordo]

The only reason they'd pull him after one inning is they are thinking of bringing him up to pitch for Gonzo if the MRI is bad news. At least temporarily.

[sportsfan8703]

It's time for Gausman to take the spot and run with it. He's had MLB innings before. I don't put any stock in the recent AAA outing. Just a throw day. All this Johan talk should have him motivated.

[Il BuonO]

I believe Gausman can compete at a MLB level right now. He needs to vary his pitches and speeds, but he has great stuff, a terrific arm and he should step up. I am really rooting for him. I really want him to succeed. If he goes Saturday, they will have TJ right behind him as a safety net. I think if he could give us 4-5 innings thats all you can ask for right now. Make no mistake he IS the future.

Welp, you had me until you mentioned that. Hearing McFarland is the potential long man OR other possible option to start Saturday does nothing more than make me long for Josh Stinson.

Hunh? What Brad Brach doesn't light your fire either? :scratchchinhmm: *

*oh wait

Its doesn't sound like Gausman is ready. But its only two starts and he is the best the O's have at the moment.

[Redskins Rick]

He's not ready and it's a stupid move to bring him up again. He should be developing in AAA instead of being yo-yo'd around. The Orioles could spot start a number of guys and Santana is close to being ready. There's no need to bring Gausman up.

You really believe DD is just toying with Gausman a possible TOR of the future club for many years?

Close isn't ready.

DD has shown that this team is invested in winning this season, I think he will make the best move he thinks will work.
