Zach got hurt fielding a bunt. Noody touched him. Anybody else think that's a little odd? Sounds like something might have been wrong before he threw that pitch.

Not at all. Watch the play

I guess i have to see another replay. Seemed very odd online, so thanks.

Watch his left leg when he bends down to field the ball on the run. You'll see him land really hard on that leg.

And I keep forgetting it's practically Winter over there- that field has been to hell and back this week. Hard to see all online, so glad that's all it is.

Given all that, I'd still like to see Zach starting again. :deadhorse:

    • This is silly.    At any point, he could get hurt, have a down year, etc.. He is an Oriole for the next 4 years.  He will make around 50 million for the next 4 years. So, if you pay him 70ishM for 2 FA years, that is a 6/120 extension that is basically giving him all the money he will make the next 6 years.     After that, he gets opt outs for several years at big money and gets total security. It's actually a bad contract for the team as all the risk is on them. The only downside for Gunnar on this deal is if he stays completely healthy and his performance maintains at this level for 4 more years. If that happens, he probably loses 8-20 million (depending on where contracts go) for those 2 years and then he can still go get his 400M contract. So, he risks losing a little money for a ton of guaranteed money that gives him total protection against everything and he still goes into FA at an age where he can get the mega deal. Hes not turning that down
    • Which one you want pitching 5 innings for you?  Playoff games starter will typically go 5.  Maybe 6. 
    • Hall (knee) will join Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday to resume his rehab assignment, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Hall experienced a setback with his sprained left knee during his second rehab appearance May 23. He's expected to eventually require a platelet-rich plasma injection or possibly surgery for the knee, but for now, he'll attempt to pitch through the injury. Given that he's been on the injured list since April 20 and hasn't made a rehab appearance in about three weeks, Hall will likely require multiple outings at Nashville to get fully stretched out before he's an option for the Milwaukee rotation.
    • He's on pace to land a guaranteed contract in the $400-500 million dollar range at like 27 years old and his agent is Scott freakin' Boras. Absolutely nothing about that screams "I am going to sell even a single free agent year." Will he listen to extension offers? Probably. Will he actually accept one? Probably not.
    • Do you actually watch the MLB postseason?  Most teams get their starters out by the 6th inning.
    • The whole “the key with Crochet” is exactly why trading for him makes no sense. On top of that, how does he bounce back next year after throwing so many more innings than he ever has? Im not questioning his talent, his upside, age, service time or anything.  It’s all on the side of the team that has him. But they are going to want multiple top 50 type prospects for a guy with ace potential and a lot of service time.  His name shouldn’t even be mentioned imo.
    • Suarez has not had one single quality start this season. While I love what he has given us, he is the classic definition of a “5 and dive” pitcher, which is fine, especially for the regular season as long as you have other starters (like Burnes) who can give consistent length. The problem with that for the post season is that forces your middle relievers into the game against teams with the best offenses. I’m not confident that the odds are necessarily stacked in our favor in some of those matchups. But hey you never know, Akin sure surprised me on Friday with a stellar outing.
