Bump. Chris Lee has been pretty doggone good. He's jumped from A, to A+, to AA in one season - and has pitched to a lower ERA and WHIP at each stop.

Thanks.

We also have all of Lee's numbers for his last 2 starts, including his pitches per inning in ths thread in the Minor League section:

ORIOLES LEFT-HANDED PITCHING PROSPECTS

In his last 2 starts combined, Lee ceded a total of 7 hits ...... all of which were singles.

Om the downside, Lee walked 6 batters in those last 2 starts in only 10.67 innings pitched.

How is it a strawman?

Saying that people are saying DD has done nothing good or done nothing to help things. Both are clearly not true but nobody is really saying that. They are just saying he is having a really bad year.

Pretty sure LooksItsPuck has said that DD hasnt done anything for the farm system. It is true that the only trade he "won" was the Brach trade.

DD made some nice little in season trades for minor leaguers. Gunkel, Lee, R. Rodriguez. Very underrated.

That's fine, but it'd be nice if the O's made a few more moves that were highly rated/regarded (because they're obviously good/solid, if not great), rather than a bunch of other moves that might be "underrated" because no one outside of the O's gives a ---- about them.

Sigh...I'm not looking forward to the offseason.

I don't think he's done nothing. I don't think he's done enough. Most of his acquisitions have been low impact, IMHO. For the minors as for projection able major league talent. Guys like Urrutia, Alvarez, etc. trading ERod. Trading Davies. His trades have been eh at best. He's won a couple. Lost big on others.

    • Yeah, basically this, that Westburg's underlying numbers (EV, barrel %, xwOBA) seem to point at this being pretty real, or at least that there's nothing 'undeserved / lucky' about this hot streak, if it's just that. 
    • The problem with a Cowser/Kjerstad/Stowers/Bradfield outfield roster is there are no right handers to handle LHP. I don't think and completely left handed outfield is the destination for an organization the values versatility.
    • Looks maybe concussion related. 
    • How can you not be romantic about baseball? This seems slightly poetic. I enjoyed reading, and correlated your experience in the stands back to what I watch in Game 1 on MASN.  It was also pretty cool to hear Jim Palmer give you a shout out in Game 2 of the series on Live TV.
    • I am not worried.  It just doesn’t remotely meet the eye test.  He has been great in the field . I can think of at least 3 outstanding plays he has made and not any that I thought he should have gotten but didn’t. Meanwhile Holliday is 3 OAA and I can’t think of an outstanding play and can think of a number I thought he should have made. 
    • Nicely stated Roy. Every since I was 9 years old and saw the O's vs. the Tokyo Giants in Tokyo in 1971, I've been infected with the Orange/Black virus. There is no cure and I don't want one. You and I sat at the lunch table with Jim Palmer at the 1970 World Series Champs reunion, and its still one of my enduring baseball memories. You said I looked like Carlton Fisk! I was at all 3 games in this Angels series, right behind the O's dugout. I got to see all our boys, and just simply love to watch this team play. And in true baseball fashion, the one game on paper we should have dominated (GRod vs. 8+ ERA Channing), we end up down 7-0 and lose. But watching Gunnar's homers, his electric triple, and he made a fantastic play today on a ball that went under Westburg's glove, Adley do Adley things, Cowser, holy crap. Kimbrel v. Trout with bases loaded, bottom of 9th, 2 outs, down by 2? That was fun. Next game Trout bats leadoff and torches a GRod fastball for a homer to the opposite field.  An observation.... If you didn't know anything about the team, and you only watched game 1 batting practice, you'd think Cowser and O'Hearn were the studs of the team. Mountcastle was taking BP with the reserves and he put on a show as well.  Home after 3 straight days watching this O's team, so jealous of the Balt fans in Balt that get to see the team with regularity. It's a special bunch.
