Meanwhile, Parker Bridwell had surgery in July to remove loose bodies from his elbow, after pitching very poorly this year. Hopefully he will recover well and be effective next season.  

Or maybe that was a last hurrah before the arm goes. Pitching is so fragile.

Loose bodies are small fragments of detached bone or cartilage that float through the body, catching or locking in the joints. The best treatment and surgery for the removal of loose bodies depends on a few important factors including age, current and past health, the extent of the loose body to be removed, the location of the loose body and any history with other medications and treatments. Sports or work injuries are the most common causes of loose bodies.

Often, loose body removal is required because of degenerative diseases, such as osteoarthritis. These diseases are often found in people who use one or more of their joints an extraordinary amount, such as athletes or people whose jobs require extensive lifting, particularly overhead.

Diagnosis

A loose body can create a feeling of locking in a person’s joint. The loose particles make it difficult to move or fully extend the joint.

He then ceded a lead-off single to Markus Betts to begin the 8th, at which point he gave way to Josh Lucas.

Fry has a career 3.31 ERA in 45 IP with us the last two seasons. Good k rate. Still optionable. He hasn’t had the benefit of matching up a lot L/L. So far, so good. 

Looks like a nugget. 

I was about to say that he's an improvement over the last two years (2015-16) of the lefty non-LOOGY middle-relief guy we used to have, T.J. McFarland, but then I was astonished to see that T.J. pitched 72 innings last year for Arizona to an ERA of 2.00. How did that happen?!

    • Well this is just blatantly incorrect.  He did have a .580 OPS in May followed by a .679 in June.  Over the last 28 days, he has a .738 OPS and over the last week its .850.  Throughout this entire stretch his batted ball data remained strong.  Are the first few weeks of the season carrying his numbers?  Sure.  But to say he has "like a .500 OPS" since the first few weeks of the season is massive stretch. This also isn't taking into account the defensive dropoff from Cowser to Kjerstad.  The good news is there is plenty of room for both of them to get regular at-bats. 
    • Think I saw that barrios was the brewers 21st ranked prospect or something. If we could’ve gotten a year and a half of civale for someone like Liranzo or Sosa, that would’ve been extremely tempting. 
    • The best and easiest way to clear the biggest logjam is to trade O'Hearn for a quality reliever or a prospect. It's a classic sell high move, and it's much easier to trade for a non-closer reliever than it is to trade for a starter. There are plenty of contending teams that need offensive help. And most importantly, it clears the DH slot for Kjerstad and Mayo.  And Kjerstad shouldn't be sent down again. He's been mishandled enough by Elias and Hyde already, and he's a potential 40 HR bat with upside much higher than a few players who aren't part of the long-term future of this team and that he should already be taking at bats from, including Hays (even against LHP), Mullins (who's going to inevitably slump again and still has terrible offensive numbers despite a red hot 2+ weeks), and O'Hearn. 
    • Kimbrel, so far, is pretty well in line with his career.
    • Mariners offense is anemic. Not one starter last night had an OPS above .750. O's should win one more to take the series and a sweep is a real possibility. Seattle is in a weak division and Astros could overtake them to win the division.
    • Thanks for sharing. But man that graph triggers me. I have spent decades editing graphs made by newbie grad students. I would love to tell the creator for goodness sake reverse those axes so the “good” bullpens have positive residuals and not negative residuals!! 😀 Sorry for aside geek frustrations.
