Updates on Hunter Harvey


Norfolk orioles

Recommended Posts

Harvey pitching in a real game will be like seeing a Leprechaun diving a unicorn into the ocean and finding Atlantis.

Watch out for that Leprechaun!! LOL Harvey to pitch in a Gulf Coast League game.

Harvey pitched for gcl orioles today. 5 so and 1 hit in 2 innings. Glad he's back pitching.

Wow, this wasn't a hoax!!!!

He's back on the field!

This is amazingly good news for the O's. With how well he's done in the MiL and in spring trainings against ML pitching, I wouldn't be surprised to see him in an O's uniform this year. Certainly for Sept call-ups. Heck, he and Bundy could hold down a rotation spot doing 5 innings each every other turn. That would be cool, huh?

There is very little chance of that happening IMO. I'd be happy if he could throw 40-50 innings in the second half at Frederick or Bowie.

Orioles 2013 first-round pick, right-hander Hunter Harvey, made a successful return to the mound on Saturday in the Gulf Coast League. Over two scoreless innings he fanned five batters. It was his first minor league game since July 25, 2014.

"I saw Hunter pitch and it was really good," Graham said after seeing that outing in person. "He is healthy and threw free and easy. Ball came out of his hand well and he threw strikes with good velocity."

Harvey missed time with a strained right flexor mass and fractured fibula. And then in May he had another health issue and underwent sports hernia surgery.

But the organization’s No. 2 ranked prospect according to Baseball America is finally back. He will throw two to three innings on Wednesday in the GCL and after that could be ready to enter a team’s five-man rotation. A move to short season Single-A Aberdeen is possible. If all goes well he could certainly move to Frederick, where he had been expected to start this year.

    • This times 1000.   A five game losing streak where we’ve lost exactly 1.5 games in the standings, by the way. You would think we were suddenly ten games behind the Yankees (who’s asses we just finished kicking five days ago) with the way people act.    Good time for an OH vacation for me because the flop sweat around here is flooding the place. 
    • I don't know if anyone is questioning if the Orioles will still qualify for the postseason after this recent rough stretch. However, the concern that I am seeing/reading/hearing is that once October begins, we don't have the kind of pitching talent necessary to go deep into the Fall by winning multiple rounds against teams who have better pitching talent. 
    • I believe this is truly the "all in " year...not next year or the year after. After this year, it's conceivable we could lose Burnes, and Santander, and that would mean two of the best and(among) the most important players on the team. No Burnes(he'll command at least 30 million a year and likely more) would maybe give us ONE solid pitcher in Grod, and our outfield will be in flux. No, I think THIS is the year the Orioles have to win, and that means some dramatic, possibly risky trades at the break yield some significant upgrades to our beleaguered pitching both with starters and the pen. If we don't get it this year, we may never have a potential post season team in the next couple of years..not at this rate.
    • Luke Dickerson, SS, Morris Knolls HS, Rockaway, N.J. There are shades of Jackson Merrill and Sammy Stafura with Dickerson as a northeast/mid-atlantic prep shortstop who has received a lot of late helium this spring. He’s an offense-oriented righthanded hitter with a background as a talented hockey player. He might fit better at second base or center field, but teams like his hit/power combination enough to take him inside the first two rounds. He had a solid showing at the draft combine last week, as well. 
    • As the bluejays continue to fade, I cant help but think that they would be a trade fit if they decide to sell.  Specifically Gausman and Berrios. Gausman is under contract for 2 seasons after this one, and Berrios has 4 years with an opt out after 2 years. So you would essentially have both of those guys for 2.5 years which would be a big boost for 2024, and the coming years with Burnes likely gone and Bradish out for 2025. They are both on hefty contracts (for Orioles standards) but with our payroll and new ownership group you would think that wouldnt be a huge problem. Not sure what the asking price would be for one of, or both, of those guys but worth looking into. I know its hard to look at trading within the division, especially what would potentially be a "blockbuster" type of  deal but I just dont see a ton of options on the trade market right now outside of the White Sox, A's and Rockies and none of those teams can match what the bluejays have to offer.
    • He was all of that yes, but nothing close to Gunner so far or Cal's best year, and you also forgot about Eddie. not to mention Palmer in the 70,s
