Sucks' date=' so close to getting out of the inning but that's going to happen (especially against good offenses). Wright should be in the bulpen but obviously with Gausman out he's pushed in to a starting role.[/quote']

Who is the fifth starter? We will need one directly.

Well, we'll have to see what happens tonight. Clay isn't good against the O's, but I hope he isn't embarrassing bad (he's on my fantasy team), just bad enough to make them question why they have him in the 2 spot instead of the 4 or 5 spot

He wasn't too bad during that no-hitter he threw against us.

    • Yesterday turned out to be not fun at all. A loss, a lost player likely for the season. 
    • 5+ - 16 times 4 - 6 <4 - 15 times  Pretty typical.  4 is the median point for most teams every year.  
    • Basallo is 6’4” and 180lbs at 19. He has almost zero chance of sticking at catcher long term. By 23 I suspect he will be somewhere in the 250-270 range. He has 1B/DH written all over him long term, possibly COF.
    • Sure seems like Bradish will go on the 15 day IL today.   Vespi or Krook being called up. Kremer has a rehab start tomorrow.   If he does well he could be in the rotation on Friday.   Kremer had a 3.25 ERA in the 2nd half last season.   He can be a big help if he is healthy. There was a question in this thread about what can we learn about the pitching that we don't know between now and the deadline.    I think the answer is a lot. Over 2022 and 2023 Suarez pitched 29 and 30 start and 173 and 162 IP.    Right now he has a 1.61 ERA overall and I .82 ERA as a starter in 7 starts.    If he can do that until the deadline Elias is going to have a hard time finding a better 3rd starter for the playoff than Suarez. We will probably see Povich get regular starts for the next 6 weeks.   The rookie could be big in the pennant race.  25 year old Boddicker stepped up in 1983 for the O's.   He had never done that before but going 16-8 that year helped the O's to the World Series.   We will see what Povich can show Elias before the deadline. Next man up.
    • Yeah, I’ve found Duck Duck Go to be great for the Hangout. It’s literally the only thing I use for this site now. In fact, the only thing I use Duck Duck Go for , is this site. 
    • Use my iPad mostly these days….the site can be frustrating as it crashes and reloads frequently.
    • Bradfield’s season has gone a little differently than I expected.  My big question going in was, could he get enough extra base hits to keep his ISO at .100 or better?  I thought if he did, he’d have a solid BA and walk rate and put up a .280/.380/.380 type line.  But, I wasn’t sure the ISO would be there, in which case I thought his BA and walk rate would suffer.   So far, he’s kept his ISO over .100 pretty consistently, even before his two recent homers.  But the BA and OBP haven’t been as good as I expected.  So far, .264/.337/.383.   By month, his ISO has gone .106, .108, .152.   Anyway, still a lot of season to go, but I thought we’d see Bradfield on base a good bit more.
