Chris Tillman has like a negative 1 WAR this year. He hasn't been mediocre' date=' he's been a non-major league starter. That exists independent of Bud Norris.[/quote']

Well, he obviously hasn't pitched very well. I guess the issue is can he improve or not in the remainder of 2015. Other teams have probably asked themselves similar questions this year about Jeremy Guthrie and John Danks both of whom have been as bad if not worse. Either Tillman pitches better or we likely lose in 2015.

If you were guessing what's going on from listening to Bordick, you'd think the Orioles were playing great ball but just had run into a couple of tough losses.

I wouldn't mind having a little of what he's had.

He prob was so depressed watching the last few games he went into the bathroom and snorted St Johns Wort before first pitch

Am I the only one who thinks our "hitting couch" needs to go ? Career .215 hitter and he is teaching our team to go up hacking away at the first pitch. We need an approach similar to the Red Sux. Ever notice how many pitches they take and get into the other teams pen so quickly.

I like a nice comfy hitting couch.

      How much longer for Mullins

      By Safelykept · Posted

      Agree with most everything thats been said, but he needs to get going because when Mateo comes back its either Norby or Stowers back to Norfolk. By the look on his face last night he even thought it was bad luck or execution on that bunt attempt.

      Thanks for your clarification. Yes if Orioles lose Bradish for the  year , that would be a massive blow to team .  He would be difficult to replace . Nonetheless, Elias & staff  need  plan for trade for pitching reinforcements up to the deadline

      Choices: how many big long term contracts will the O’s be able to afford?

      By Safelykept · Posted

      That would finish his contract at what 33 years old. Interesting.

      Another big night, going 3 for 4 with a HR and a double. That brings the wRC+ up to a cool 165 since the beginning of May.

      How much longer for Mullins

      By Sydnor · Posted

      Today in his first plate appearance he walked. The line drive he hit in his second plate appearance had an XBA of .660 and the line drive he hit in his third plate appearance had an XBA of .790. I don’t know whether he’ll get out of the current slump, but that’s terrible luck. I still think Mullins can be a valuable player. He’s had an XBA over .500 on a few other balls in games he has played recently that have been caught. They are already limiting his playing time. While Cowser can play CF, the idea that Hays can play CF has no real basis. His already poor jumps have gotten worse this year. His sprint speed is down to 26.9 ft/s. I’m fact, Santander currently covers more feet in the outfield because of his superior jumps. I get that he hit 2 home runs yesterday, so some people are back in on Hays, but playing him in CF is a terrible idea.

      Oh, no.Perhaps I wasn't clear. Suarez has been solid and an "adequate " starter. I was just saying he cant be the dominant , elite pitcher Bradish is, as good as Suarez has been. I think if we lose Bradish it's going to be a struggle to win against the best teams..But Suarez belongs in the rotation for as long as he pitches well, and he HAS pitched well.

      Roy , are you saying that if Suarez continues to be “adequate “ , they should take him out of the rotation ? what does Suarez has to do with Bradish ?   Please elaborate
