Earlier in the thread someone suggested Akin as the opener, so I was referring to that (Akin) as 'he'. I don't hate the idea of an opener as a concept but I do think a pitcher the caliber of Bradish (and Burnes) should not be moved off of their usual routine, which generally should include pitching the first inning. If you're starting Irvin or another left hander, and you want to get a few outs from the top of a righty-dominated lineup to get things rolling, I can get on board w/ opening someone like Webb maybe. -

Mayo now has 22 homers at AAA and doesn’t turn 23 until after this season. Barring injury (to him or at the MLB level getting him called up), chance he ends up with 40+ homers in AAA before age 23. I wonder how often that’s ever been done before? Have to figure that most prospects good enough to do that get called up before they accumulate enough AAA ABs to do it. -

The only thing I will say to this, in defense of anyone who doesn’t like it, is that it does suck knowing we could have a lineup today of more talented players but the team has too many “vets they like” and those guys are blocked. When you see lineups with several guys like Mateo (who is doing a good job in a reduced role), McKenna, McCann, et al or does make you clamor for them to bring up the better players. -

I’m not backtracking anything. I said what I said. You read into it, that I was advocating for him to throw 95 pitches (which I pointed out as ridiculous) given how very few of our starters have done that all season. You assumed that I wasn’t familiar with those kinds of injuries. What I said was he threw 80 pitches in his last rehab start (which is about standard for starters who are beginning the season in the modern game). What I was suggesting is if his arm can handle 80/85 pitches he should be fine to start today’s game, which is what I imagine the Orioles concludes as well. -

For his efforts, Yohn Ramirez was DFA'd to make room for Kyle Bradish -
Anybody saying they hate this lineup must not have been watching games in 2021 and early 2022. Hate is a pretty strong word for lineups that include Henderson, Rutschman, Santander, Mountcastle, Cowser, Westburg. The other three hardly matter in comparison to the lineups just a couple seasons ago. People have become very spoiled, very quickly.
