Maybe Dan is getting grief about signing him to the contract?

So you would think they want to see more. I think they rush him, but clearly they shouldn't.

If they rush him...that shoulder might be about to fall off.

Blame for what? For having a winning franchise during his tenure? Or some micro tendency.

For making piss poor pitching decisions and not replenishing the farm.

Winning and actually winning something are vastly different.

Not really. Winning is winning.

I don't disagree about the pitching or the farm actually. He never told me that was his focus, to leave the farm better than he found it.

Well, he definitely did say he wanted to improve the starting pitching. Yet here we are...4 out of 5 seasons with bottom the league starting pitching.

He's done a great job of manipulating the roster. Building a bullpen. Taking fliers on guys like Kim, Alvarez, etc. So, essentially not hurting the team in regards to large/long contracts. Granted Ubaldo and Gallardo were major SNAFUs by him, but if we basically say the starting pitching has been a weakness by him but we're still winning...I guess that's good?

He made some very strong statements about the need to have a strong farm system when he arrived. He really hasn't delivered on that. I'd care more right now if weren't contending. And I'm sure I'll care more in the future when we stop contending.

The quote that I remember is "to help the major league team or be dealt to help the major league team." So yeah, I am sure that he has said things he did not follow through on.

From his initial press conference:

“When you don’t have the resources that the top two clubs have, you have to work harder and you have to work smarter,” Duquette said. “You have to do a better job in scouting and you have to do a better job in player development. If you can build up the inventory of your farm system and you’ve got core players coming to your major league team, you’ve got something to talk about. The team that has the best farm system is the team that competes, year in and year out.”

      Who sits for Slater in Game One?

      By Aristotelian · Posted

      I agree, McCann C is decision number one. After that, against a reverse split guy I think you just start your best overall players. However, O'Hearn has such poor splits vs LHP and so little experience I can't imagine they start him. Adley DH would allow Hyde to avoid the O'Hearn vs LHP decision. Kjerstad had hit lefties well but they gave him only 18 AB. That is a big ask of a rookie. Might be Adley if they think McCann makes Burnes better. Definite starters: Gunnar, Westburg, Santander, Mountcastle, Urias, Cowser Probable: Mullins Pick two: Adley, McCann, O'Hearn, Kjerstad

      Can Cowser still win Rookie of The Year over Gil/Wells ?

      What you said here is what I’ve been trying to convey.  OAA and dWAR aren’t intended to measure the same thing.   They shouldn’t be mentioned together.  If Fangraphs took its FRV and Positional stats and added them together, then divided that number by 10ish to convert it from runs to wins, you’d have a stat to compare to dWAR.

      I think Adley is the DH tomorrow.

      Nice job pointing out Ragans pitches better against righties than lefties: The Orioles put a heavy emphasis on the pitcher's splits over the hitter's split, so Mullins could very well start. Interestingly though, lefties BABIP was a unsustainable .345. Here's his pitch% and results against lefties this year. With this info, I think the Orioles very well may start Mullins instead of Slater. Now, will they start O'Hearn over Rivera at DH?

      Nope I wanna see the guy with the better defense. Just pointing out that Slater’s only “advantage” is another liability. Plus, Reagan’s is a reverse splits guy.

      The Dull Orange Machine

      The late season partial revival was enough for BAL to finish 3rd MLB-wide to the Judge/Soto team and the Shohei/Mookie/Freddie one. Split up those first two and put another year on everybody else, and I like our shot to go 1st some season soon. Park effects, it is notable the FG readout gives the Orioles with a 250/315/435 line a fraction of a point edge in the 115 wRC+ tie for 3rd and 4th with the Diamondbacks, who posted a 263/337/440 line. Don't be dull, October Orange Machine.

      Mullins has slashed .196/.228/.278/.506 against lefties this year. Slater has not had a great year overall and his September was terrible, but the Orioles really like platoon matchups. Plus, having Mullins speed and pop on the bench gives them options late in games.
