Updates on Hunter Harvey

[accinfo]

Dr Andrews is world renowned as one of the best at this, and I suspect has a higher than 80% return to prior level of functioning.

Andrews did not do the surgery. Dr. D’Alessandro in Charlotte, NC performed it. I am sure they picked a doctor who knows what he is doing as well.

Went to Princeton, Med school at Georgetown and interned at Harvard. Nice resume.

What was his GPA? Class rank? Inquiring minds want to know!

Good luck to Hunter Harvey. It's been a two-year odyssey to get to this point, and now another year before he'll pitch competitively again. I hope the young man keeps his spirits up.

Just completed his first inning back with the GCL Orioles.  1 IP 2H 0ER 1K.  That's it for today for him.  Good first outing back.

Great to see him back pitching and (hopefully) 100% healthy.

One inning and done, hopefully we'll get a velocity report from one of the O's bloggers.

O's plan is to have Harvey pitch once per week and to have him progress to at least Delmarva by season's end before he is shut down for the winter.  So that gets him 4-5 more appearances.  Results not as important as keeping him healthy heading into the offseason.

Any reports on velo or how his stuff looks?

I'll be watching when he gets to Aberdeen and I'll give a report then.

Great info ... thanks!

The sad thing is that all of our top pitching prospects have to lose 1-2 seasons. It makes for zero predictably on their arrival.

In the battle of Harvey vs Harvey, Harvey did a little better than Harvey.   

They were both outstanding.  Are Hunter and Matt related?     

[sportsfan8703]

Now that Harvey's healthy. Let's get into the way too early speculation....

I say don't waste too many of his TJ repaired elbow in the minors.  In 2018, have him start in Frederick for 5ish games, earn a quick promotion to Bowie, and let him accumulate around 100 innings there. Come 2019, be should be ready for the majors.

That sounds like a pretty good plan. I think if Harvey looks really, really, really good in spring training then they may jump him straight to Bowie. But something like your plan is more likely in my pretty ignorant opinion. The innings will be tricky. The poor guy has only pitched 135 or so pro innings and most of those were years ago. I think they will push the envelope a little with him...they will want to get some return on their investment.
