I found this to be pretty funny. Those of you who play fantasy baseball might read razzball. Here is their take:

"His MRI came back clean. Looks like the O’s are gonna have to work harder to mess him up. Maybe throw him on short rest? Throw him for 150 pitches in first start back? Make him the closer on the days he’s not scheduled to start? Gonna have to be creative, O’s."

Gausman will make starts June 6 and 11th in AAA. This will likely be done on a rehab assignment and will allow Gausman to keep his final option year.

I think that Roch said he would be optioned and wouldn't be on a rehab.

    • You don’t downgrade Mayo because of the defense? Or do you think that the plus arm will allow him to play in RF?
    • I'd handicap it differently, even though Austin hit the ball more solidly the last week. After his 10-day stint on IL, I think there is perhaps a 85% chance he goes on rehab with the residual chance due to a gaping hole in the Orioles lineup/bench which has been exposed. Assuming he goes on some form of rehab assignment, there are at least 3 groups I'd offer as qualitatively different outcomes: 1. He goes on rehab for 5 days or less and either a hole/spot develops or he starts hitting right away 2. He goes on rehab for between 6 and 20 days (max rehab time for a position player) and the Orioles use much more, if not all of the shot clock before making a decision.  It could be a matter of Hays not hitting particularly well in the minors or the Orioles playing well with everyone healthy. 3. The club reaches the end of 20 days and uses the remaining option on Hays to leave him there because the O's don't have room given the set of quality OF/DH/1B they have and don't have an easy roster move to make.  The Orioles may be forced to trade him if this occurs, but I would not be shocked if he returns when an injury opens up a spot. Please let me know if you can think of any other possibilities that are not subsets of these 3 outcomes. If I am handicapping the 3 options, I'd say it's: Return to the big leagues immediately after 10 days: 15% Short rehab assignment (option 1): 50% Long rehab assignment (option 2): 25% Optioned after rehab (option 3): 10% Effectively, the Orioles will have already optioned Hays to the minors for a reset with option 2, but under the guise of the injury.   I'd like to hear from as many other posters as would care to handicap these 4 outcomes.  Simply post your percentages for each of the 4.     
    • I don’t know what Friedman or Stearns make. But I’m sure that will be the comp used by his agent. And whatever that number is I’m sure Rubenstein will work off of that to ensure that he stays running the Orioles for a long time.
    • That was fun to watch. Seems like some hitters whiff on fastballs up in the zone because they can't help themselves. Trout watches fastballs up in the zone because he knows he can't hit it. It's the perfect pitch to Trout, but the margin for error is razor-thin.
    • The 2 most overall talented players in the org are Holliday and Gunnar. Adley is the most important. You can argue that Basallo has the highest ceiling. Mayo is right there with them.     This is no shot at Cowser, HK or anyone else.  These guys are just that good.  
    • Kjerstad Norfolk splits (2023-2024) Vs lefties wOBA = .347 xwOBA = .336 K% = 21.5% BB% = 5.6% Whiff = 28.7% Hard hit = 41.0%   Vs righties  wOBA = .426 xwOBA = .377 K% = 20.5% BB% = 9.9% Whiff = 24.3% Hard hit = 47.2%
