At this point I would be grateful that it is us and not the Yankees. We have no idea what we will get from Tillman. Bundy is in uncharted waters. Only Gausman is hands down better than Ubaldo, but he could be needed to win #162. Honestly, this could happen.

That's where I am as well.

If the O's make the PS, Ubaldo has a chance to give the Orioles some serious return on that $50 million.

      What are you expecting, or what would you be pleased with for Cade Povich tonight.

      I thought his line from his first start was deceptive.  He wasn’t far from having a very decent outing.   But I’m glad to see him take it up a notch this time out.   I’d still option him back to the minors today and call up a reliever.

      Gonzalez and Krook have been pitching well. Both are lefties. Krook is on the 40 man. I assume one, or both of them will be called up today. Corbin Martin probably next to be DFA'd

      He also famously lost a ball in his shirt.

      It has been 2 blowups in 11 AAA games.    We saw with Fujinami last year they will overlook baseball card stats if they like the pitch metrics. As good as he's flashed, it doesn't seem like he would be completely out of consideration for a limited tactical role at some point.    We've already hit bringing Bryan Baker back. I did note Hyde took a nice guy approach in his presser about Akin.    One of the previous blowups, he'd kind of called him out about middle middle pitches.    Last night it was Akin has a good fastball, Matt Olson is great and golly gee could Olson sit fastball after that uncompetitive slider.

      Rise of the Super-Teams?

      By Frobby · Posted

      Last year at about this time, the top four teams in MLB were: TBR .690 BAL .627 TEX .627 ATL .618 This year the top four are: NYY .700 PHI .687 BAL .672 CLE .652 That’s kind of crazy good   The top four teams this year are on pace to win 113, 111, 109 and 106 games, respectively. History tells us that most or all of these teams will fall off their pace eventually   But it certainly feels like these teams have separated themselves from the pack.

      Remember Eddie Rogers? I was at a BaySox game in 2000, looking at the roster, and was like "Man, this kid is 18 years old and holding his own in AA. He's going to be a star!" But then two things happened: he never really developed, and come to find out he was three years older than his fake Dominincan Republic docs said he was.  But he can always say that he had a Major League season with a 5.000 OPS. Let's see somebody top that.

      It's 27, but like I said, roughly 26-31 is fairly flat if you average across all MLB players.  Some studies come up with some other age (usually older), but they're often addressing survivor bias incorrectly. They'll just look at productivity by age of MLB players, and not account for playing time. For example, you might find that 33-year-olds hit about as well as 27-year-olds, but that there are three times as many 27-year-olds in the league because 2/3rds of the 33-year-olds have been weeded out of the majors and are providing zero value. And the ones left are the best of the lot. So when doing an aging study you need to add a bunch of ballast to account for that effect in those age groups.
