Wieters DL?

[weams]

Wieters threw from 90 feet for the first time, but Showalter could keep him in minor league games for the next several days. If Wieters appears in a major league Grapefruit League game on Friday or later and then is placed on the disabled list, his injury can’t be backdated to Mar. 25. If he appears in minor league games where admission isn’t charged, an injury could be backdated.

I personally think he'll be on the roster on Opening Day. They can always ask Caleb to carry a heavier load to start the season, and ease Wieters in gradually.

I hope they are in contention and he is playing well so they don't trade him.

I hope they're in first place and he finally lives up to the hype

His hype was unreasonable.

[Rene88]

I think it's a certainty.

Lol, yeah no kidding. Nobody thinks he will be here, nor should he.

Why do I have a gut feeling that elbow is going to be troublesome all year.

[Tx Oriole]

Any one else think this will be his last season in Baltimore?

It sure could be. I just hope he has a good season.

Yes, it was. But regardless, it's stained his reputation here in B'more. I hope he plays well for us this year, but I do think it's his last in Baltimore. He could win the MVP and he'd still be gone (by his own design as much as the Orioles').

And as I've said before, if he suffers through an injury-plagued season, or his elbow is still giving him issues, then his market value is quickly diminished as a catcher, and pretty much non-existent at any other position... He certainly won't be receiving $15.8MM a year... Maybe that was part of the calculus behind taking the QO...

I hope gets healthy and they trade him at the deadline.

That would likely mean we're out of it, so I don't hope for that.

Buck hopes that Wieters can start catching some at the minor league camp sometime next week.

Still two outs on two pitches.

I disagree. If we can get a good starting pitcher that might put the the team over the hump and win why not? Caleb is good enough to start every day,and this lineup would still have plenty of pop without Matt.

Yeah, with his pitch framing, this is a blessing for us. Dumbest--without question--decision to offer a QO in history.

DO you know who was the person pushing for the QO in our leadership?
