</b>

Wilson has not been good since early May and has allowed five runs in three of the last five starts including the last two. I am not really sure that Wilson has all that much to "turn up" in order to adjust to the league at this point and probably doesn't have a ceiling above that of, say, Rodrigo Lopez. He has done pretty well against Boston, though.

Eduardo Rodriguez

(1-1)

6.06 (1.41/.258)

7K / 7BB, 5HR

QS: 1

Rodriguez has respectable numbers against the Orioles in four starts, but is only three starts into the season after an injury delayed him. Since his QS against the Orioles for his 2016 debut, he has allowed nine runs in 10 innings since then with five home runs allowed and four coming in one game against Toronto. He also has seven walks over that span with only four K's.

Steven Wright proved to be almost as dominating as he was when we saw him the first time when we got only two runs, four hits and five walks off of him. This time, we get three runs, six hits and one walk off of him in 7.1 innings. It didn't turn out all that differently this time around as his knuckler continues to be that damn good. On the other side, Gausman lays another egg allowing more than four runs in his third start of the last five, but this is the first time he has not pitched into the fourth inning. Despaigne did well enough and the Orioles were able to hold the Sox to six runs, but the bullpen had to throw five innings. This simply can't hold up over the season and the offense is cooling off and can not be expected to pull off Cinderella stories every night. The Orioles have now lost four of five.

Tyler Wilson has been brought down to earth and has struggled badly over the last five starts as it seems the league has figured him out, but E-Rod is a decent matchup for him since he is coming back from an injury and isn't all there just yet though he did pitch well against the Orioles in his 2016 debut. There could be a lot of runs in this one.

In the division, the tie is reinstated and Toronto crushed the Phils again moving to only two games back of the lead and have one more against Philly tomorrow. It seems Toronto is about to make things really interesting in the East and we may even have a different order 1-3 after we face Toronto for three coming up next.

In the Central, the Royals have won five in a row as they beat Cleveland again completing the revenge sweep and moving into a tie for first place. KC is officially red hot again and remain one of the best teams in the AL. Detroit lost to the White Sox and remain in third two games back and the White Sox 2.5 games back. In the West, Texas is losing to Oakland in the fourth and Seattle just lost to the Rays in the 13th inning in embarrassing fashion as Mike Montgomery came in the game and allowed a one out triple, hit a batter and then walked the next two batters producing the game winning run.

    • The Givens - Our infield right now is made up of draft picks and reclamation projects (someone else's draft picks.) Same for outfield. Pitching is light on draft picks and heavy on trades that we developed or reclamation projects save Burnes, Kimbrel, and Irvin. The first five years seem to have gone pretty well developmentally.   My Take - I personally think the question posed in the OP is premature. Besides the regular draft, I'm anxious to see how our new academy and recent entry into the Latin American Market plays out re acquiring and developing talent. To be fair, I don't want to lose sight of 2019 and Elias's starting point. Plus, as noted above, there have been a number of waiver reclamation projects that have been positively developed. Someone else's draft picks if you would. IMO, we are light years from where we were when Elias took over some five years ago. On so many fronts. So, now drafting lower but with near equal Latin American status and a different owner, let's see what the next five years bring. Elias has said he wants a continuous supply of talent. I am anxious to see if he can deliver and the OP raises questions to follow in this regard. TBD 
    • My concern isn’t now as much as it is in the playoffs. I don’t want some pitch to contact version of Burnes out there. Im not saying that will happen and I don’t think it will happen but there have been too many low Ks, low missed bats starts for me early on…I don’t want that to become a trend all season long and into October.
    • Like a few others, you totally and utterly missed the point and your Pollyanna viewpoint is on FULL display when you say the jury is still out on Trimble. Oh well, I can only provide the information for discussion, not change people's minds who's minds are already made up. 
    • Can we get this: C-Adley 1B-Mountcastle 2B-Norby SS-Henderson 3B-Westburg LF-Stowers CF-Cowser RF-Santander DH-O'hearn Batting order can vary
    • Compared to his first couple starts where he K'd everyone he's not missing as many bats but he's also not getting hit hard.  His first 3 starts he had a K rate of 28, but an average EV of 90.3 with a 13 degree LA.  Since then he's had a K rate of 23, but his average EV allowed has dropped to 85.9 with an 8 degree LA.  As a result his xwOBA and xERA are really good.   EV allowed is a weird stat where medium sized samples of 40-100 batted balls is actually more predictive than large samples, but that does make it valuable in looking at splits.   The whiff/K rates are definitely worth taking a look at, but as long as he's not walking anyone and giving up 85 mph grounders and weak flies when he does give up contact, it's definitely not a serious concern.   I also wonder if he's intentionally pitching to contact because he can get away with it, and because he is trying to keep his pitch count manageable rather than give the ball up to our shaky bullpen.
    • I was just referring to Orioles organization pitchers. I'm sure Boddy has successes or he would not have been hired.  Again I'm not saying he's good or bad, but I am a "results matter" guy. Show me the results at the big league level with guys they drafted and developed.  As I stated, I don't know if this is a draft or development issue or a little of both? All I know is we're five drafts in and there are no results from drafting and developing pitchers so far.
    • Can you believe if we can get Jesus to pitch for us?  Ok, just kidding, but if we acquire him, what will our rotation be this year?
