Injuries happen, why depth is important.

Pretty sure Vance Worley will have some starts this season so long as he makes the cut in the Spring.

Probably will see starts from two or three more pitchers as well. Despaigne, Wright, Wilson are my guesses. Maybe Chris Lee.

Pitcher from pre-workout era expressing misgivings about modern pitchers. Probably shouldn't be a big surprise. At least he didn't go with Sparky's "whatta you want to be, a baseball player or a member of the East German weightlifting team?"

Without these workouts Chris Tillman would probably have 1974 Ross Grimsley's velocity and a 6.00 ERA.

Yup. Mickey Lolich never had a core muscle injury. Case closed.

Ban all workouts for 10 years, besides the Ball Four era stuff like "aw c'mon coach, do we have to run to the foul pole and back? We're ballplayers not athletes" . Observe the injury rates. I bet they go down slightly. Along with 8 mph on an average fastball 20' on an average flyball and a gain of 6" on an average waist. Might be fun to see the return of both Drungo-skinny Mark Belanger types and a re-emergence of Mickey Loliches who make Kung Fu Panda look toned.

"Only bothers him when he walks." That's cool, he won't be doing much of that. :slytf:

      Holliday optioned, McKenna recalled

      By OnlyOneOriole · Posted

      Didn't see today's game in it's entirety but I will say this.  I feel 100% more confident with Mateo playing second and turning  a DP rather than JH right now.  JH will be fine there.  In time.   But even forgetting his hitting, D wise he just isn't there yet.   And yes I know the metrics say he is fine.  But to me, using the eye test, he looked very shaky fielding and throwing,

      I like Kevin.  He is constantly improving.  My only beef is that he doesn't seem to understand that a foul ball isn't always out of play.   A ball can be hit foul, but still be in the field of play.

      2024 NFL Draft Discussion

      By Hallas · Posted

      My preferred day 3 WR would have been Troy Franklin, but he apparently had a bad combine on positional drills (which might have been because he had the flu.)  And he got picked by Denver pretty early.   Devontez Walker is kind of intriguing.  He's 6'2", barely.   A bit on the skinny side but ran in the mid-4.3s.  His route tree is pretty limited, mostly short quickouts/slants and go/post routes. But he's really good at the deep routes.  Sort of a discount DK.  He's reported to have good hands and good deep ball tracking ability as well.  We have to see how that translates in the pro game.

      Adley Rutschman 2024

      By OriolesMagic83 · Posted

      Adley looks way more energized and McCann is veteran catcher who is good defensively and handles the pitchers well.  Doesn't really make sense to wear Adley out when the O's are using him at the top of the lineup.

      Just seems like a more controlled swing from the right side, shorter, flatter.

      Orioles #30 Prospect Brandon Young - RHP

      By Frobby · Posted

      He was signed in the Covid year when they only had a 5 round draft, which is why he was undrafted.  Was showing promise bur tore his UCL in 2022.  Pitched a little last year, this is his first full year back.  Nice to see the good outing.

      Orioles #30 Prospect Brandon Young - RHP

      By now · Posted

      What's up with Brandon Young? Out of nowhere (#30 prospect above... undrafted?) he goes 3 IP with 0 hits or walks, and 7 Ks, throwing an otherworldly 26 of 31 pitches for strikes, in Bowie's game today.
