Tillman is Back

[sportsfan8703]

Bowie and Frederick are both on the road until 4/28.  Norfolk would be home on 4/27, but I think we give TIllman an extra day between starts, and won't ask him to travel all the way to Norfolk.  

I'd expect to see him 4/28 in Bowie and probably try and get up to 75 pitches.  After that he should be ready to come up and join the big team.  If need be though the rehab amount of time for pitchers is 30 days, and not 20(Santander), in case anyone was wondering.  Just googled that.

Not looking so good so far. 2 IP 3R 1ER 5H. At least our hot start means we don't have to rush him back. 

[ChuckS]

86-88 in the first inning?  

This is reminding me of Gallardo from last year.  Unless he's still building up arm strength......

He's getting shelled tonight BTW, against A ball hitters.

6 runs, 8 hits in 3 IP so far.

Pretty clear he is nowhere near ready.

Can't go by box scores but his velocity is down and his command isn't good.

[O's84]

Is he still at 86-88MPH?

I've been listening to Tillman's outing.   The Keys have not helped him at times, but they have also hit him hard at times.   Doesn't sound  any better that the box score IMO.

64 pitches through 4.

That's surprisingly few pitches for a game where he's allowed 8 hits and a walk.    Maybe he's grooving them a little bit.

7 pitch 5th.   3 up, 3 down.  He is at 71 pitches  Used his off speed pitches effectively in the 5th.
