So you're saying he's inconsistent.

Which is consistent for Orioles pitchers.

Without a doubt, in my opinion.  He’s a very useful swing man.

Every time I look at his inflated ERA, I wonder how it's possible we gave Daniel Cabrera so much grief. All things considered, Ynoa's been sorta fine this year, or at least useful enough to eat innings, despite an ERA near 6 most of the year. 

Maybe I'm numb to the high ERAs these days, but seriously, some people hated Jeremy Guthrie for pitching 200 innings with a 5.04 ERA in 2009. Ludicrous to even fathom.

If this was a playoff contender, I would cringe on Ynoa being on the 25 man roster.

But, this team, it doesn't impact too much.

He could actually be useful in the swing role next season.

Ynoa’s not good, but he’s been decent at times.   4.53 ERA in his last 18 appearances.

A 4.5 for half the season is pretty decent for our purposes and jives with what I feel like I've seen with my eyeballs.

In his last 4 starts combined, Ynoa has a 3.92 ERA and a 1.258 WHIP over 20.67 Innings Pitched, to go along with 3 Walks and 9 Strikeouts.

Not great, not bad.

He had one bad outing out of the bullpen sandwiched inside of those 4 starts.

[sportsfan8703]

Ynoa “quietly” pitched the 3rd most innings on the team with 110.2. He at least had a positive WAR of 0.1. He hadn’t really pitched in 2 seasons. 

Is he anything more than an innings eating a swingman type?  With no options remaining, the innings he gave us in 2019, and the 26th man roster, means he has to be a lock for the 2020 roster.

He has days where he looks really good, and others when he has nothing.    Overall I think he’s pretty useful in the swing man role.    As you say, he soaked up 110 innings.   Probably worth keeping until someone better comes along.   

[wildcard]

Ynoa was 1-10 with a 5.61 ERA, a 1.373 WHIP.  He gave up more hits and innings pitched and had only 67 strikeouts in 110 innings pitched.  

I don't think he stays on the 40 man roster over the winter.   The O's may offer him a reliever position at Norfolk after he is DFA'd but there will be a lot of competition for the Norfolk reliever position next spring. 

Here are some of the candidates for Norfolk pen:

Kline, Tate, Erwin, Alvarado, Eades, Cervenka, Muckerhim, .Fry, Armstrong, Hess. Shepherd, Sulser, Ortiz, Manhold and Rogers.
