Dylan Bundy Thread

I am interested to see whether the extra day of rest helps Bundy, who has slipped a little lately.

Agreed. 9 walks in ~14 IP and a WHIP near 2 over his last 3 starts.

Hoping that extra day helps.

Yeah, he has not been great.

Now that the rosters have expanded, I wonder if the Orioles can find a way to continually give Bundy an extra days' rest for the rest of the season.

Granted that with Tillman down with an injury and the Orioles struggling as much as they have been, they can ill-afford to not have Bundy and Gausman on the mound as much as possible ...... but if it's the difference between Bundy pitching well and Bundy pitching anywhere between average and below average, it might be well worth considering. I'd rather have a really good Bundy with one or two less starts down the stretch than an average/mediocre Bundy on the mound a little more often.

Might also have to consider shutting him down altogether if he's ineffective and velocity continues to trend down. He's already over his original innings limit of 70-80 IP (he's at 85 IP, now). So need to be careful.

Interesting outing. I didn't see him throw a pitch over 94 mph, and he walked 4 guys and threw a lot of pitches, but his location within the strike zone was really good. I didn't see a fat pitch all night.

I think I remember a 95 mph fastball in the second.

Four walks feels way less problematic when you only have 2 hits.

The MASN gun had him at 95 the one time I looked and it was early. I lost the satellite feed so it was all radio the rest of his time in there.

The exact outing Bundy needed to have. He and Gausman are must watch SP's. It'll be interesting to see if we could hold him back for the 1st game of the Detroit series and have him pitch. Give him some extra rest and save him for that important series.

The extra day of rest seems really important. He had great command last night. Up 8-0, I would have pulled him after 5 innings but what do I know.

Bundy has shown that he can be really good, even at 92-94 when his location is there.

He can be special when he's at 95-97 plus the command and has a little room for error. I'm not sure we can afford to skip him a start, but it might do wonders. Ubaldo (knock on wood) is pretty really well right now, so maybe when Tillman gets back.

I am really hoping Bundy gets skipped a start this next week. I think he needs it - not that my opinion on the subject is worth anything.

I don't see it happening. However, he'll get another extra day of rest after his next start, which is followed by an off day.
