Thank you.  I was starting to wonder if that foul ball in the dugout story was just something I had misread, because I hadn't seen it reported anywhere else.

A dislocated shoulder is not a great thing for a pitcher.

Any time a guy gives up 6 runs in one start and then goes on the DL you have think maybe he was pitching hurt. The question is, will he ever be healthy?

Good point, his performance/numbers may certainly have been adversely affected.  Is he back yet, or is there an ETA on when he will be?  I haven't heard.

So when and if he gets back he will have about a month to pitch.He has not pitched since June 1st so probably be brought along slowly. Might get about 50 innings in this year if he is lucky.

If he’s healthy I’d expect an AFL trip.

It seems like a lot of us are just writing him off. Unlike Bundy, Harvey still has his premium velo and hammer curve(Bundy lost both). At the least, I think he could become a shutdown reliever. Still, let him build some innings in Bowie. This wasn't an injury caused by pitching(from what has been posted), just a freak accident. He is close to rehabbing and might get some AA innings soon. It actually wouldn't surprise me if the O's called him up in september to get some more innings under his belt out of the bullpen. It is a lost season, lets use this opportunity for development and growth.

He did before the dislocation.

The dugout accident had nothing to do with his previous health concerns. 

No it didn't. And while I admittedly didn't see the mechanics of how exactly the injury occurred, it seemingly speaks to a level of laxity and fragility in his throwing shoulder that is concerning.

    • Frustrating sure, but boring is not what I would I say. We do steal bases at times. I would like for us to play more small ball sometimes and it is frustrating to see us be so homerun happy. I think with Westy back, we will see a resurgence of timely hitting as that is very contagious.   We saw that at the beginning of the year. Amazing sight to see for sure. I think the most disheartening thing that really shocked me is the apathy and outright disgust I’ve seen from O’s fans toward their team. Perhaps we have been spoiled? No idea. Maybe expectations were too high? No idea, but frankly, a lot of yall focusing on other things and simply not watching/posting would make next season a lot more enjoyable. This is the first time since 96-97 where we make the playoffs in back to back years and you guys have been acting like some real lame jerks this whole dang season. Frankly, yall should be ashamed of yourselves. We are an incredibly young team and with that come highs and lows, but yall don’t see that. You just love to complain and moan and bloviate. Where’s the heart? Where’s the loyalty? Where’s the gratitude? You’d think with all this team has overcome, especially being so young, y’all would be happy, but no. So go off on your little bike rides or whatever. Go watch a movie if this saga seems boring to you. I don’t care. Just for once this season, keep your immense negativity to yourself.
    • Really an amazing run, 4 straight years. I completely agree with the ranking, too. There's no way Kjerstad is still a prospect though, right? 45 days is the cutoff and he's played in 48 games.
    • i think we all are going to have ptsd from that 9th inning for a while,it was that brutally bad . they need to do some special to get us to forget about it
    • wow,did gunnar and adley have to do this last season? 
    • I suggested that earlier but I think it's probably a bad play with no out. The O's have like 85% probability of scoring. There is a huge downside risk of Mullins popping up the bunt for a double play. He could also whiff on the bunt making at least Holliday an easy out. With one out and only 65% probability of scoring it's a much better play. I think if Santander and Mullins were reversed in the lineup Hyde may have done it but not when you have two shots to get the run in. 
    • WE GOT US ONE - JD5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    • Completely disagree about Orr. He will be fine. His defense has been better in its first few games compared to McDonald’s first few games.     And some of these big passing stats are over exaggerated. There have been mistakes for sure.
