Asher leaves with a 3-1 lead.

And Givens, O'Day and Brach are all rested and finish it out -- but it would have made so much more sense to use them in a game the O's were winning 7-1 yesterday....

That's the point. He isn't. So why not let him pitch just the one inning last night and let him build some success and gain confidence?  

If we use him the same way we use Givens, I think he could be Givens like with a 98 mph FB, similar slider, and better change up. 

ERA doesn't matter to Buck. We're not going to see Wright go down because Hart gave up a HR. None of the shuttle guys have looked as good as him up here or even in AAA.  

He's not Brad Brach, but if he can fill that Asher role, then our pen becomes more solid. 

Hopefully he can start doing rhe job.Spoke to his sister at the game yesterday and there has been some family issues the last few years.

His mother is sick, isn't she?

Rare form of dementia. Sister was at the stadium raising money for it. Sad and only a little over 50.

She's younger than both of my parents.
