LookitsPuck Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Move on. O's should cut bait. Look to coaches and directors from pitching Meccas like Tampa Bay. Clean house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie83 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 If he is that smart then why in the hell isnt some team paying him $10M a year right now somewhere as a coach? I get your frustration and I am right there with you but this isn't the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie83 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 One more thing. Reading this board you would think that all these teams we compete with in this division are churning out pitchers left and right. The answer is there aren't. Yanks and Sox have Tanaka and Price. We can't do that. Tampa has pitching but don't tell me that park doesn't help. What else do they have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Tampa's pitching has been overrated in recent years now. The hype not backed by substance. I go back and forth with Wallace. But guys like O'Day and Tillman have taken big steps with him. Givens too. Gausman not so much. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LookitsPuck Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 I'm not so sure Tampa is overrated. At all. They had key injuries. Traded a bunch. They're an assembly line for pitching talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clapdiddy Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I'm truly on the fence with Peterson. I know that he has had success in the past, but our recent starting pitching additions from the minors have not been great...or even good, for that matter.

Stotle Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Price, Moore, Archer and Cobb are not exactly chopped liver. Victims of injury and poor roster management but still solid guys, who would all be aces on this staff. And Honeywell, Odirizzi, Snell, Colome -- more in the minors. They are pretty good on the pitching side, generally speaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o'sfansince1970 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 It's totally broken. We can't be any worse in regards to pitching. Blow it up. Clean house. Allow pitchers to throw the pitches they want to. Bring back the cutter. We can't do worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24fps Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Even after making a concerted effort Googling Rick Petersen, I find myself knowing more about the inner workings of the North Korean nuclear program than Petersen's pitching philosophy and how it's implemented in the Orioles organization. Perhaps more will come to light after he's executed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norfolk orioles Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 There's really no excuse for how bad our staff is, how little improvement we've seen since day one, how a guy with Britton's stuff couldn't be a starter, how arrieta went elsewhere and won the cy young and how little we've been able to grow our farm and our own arms considered "grow the arms" was supposedly our strategy and it's been a total and complete failure. Enough is enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
