2018 Orioles Rotation

[TradeAngelos]

1. Dylan Bundy

2. Kevin Gausman

3. Alec Asher. 

4.????

5.????

Total cost - About 5.6m

Anyone have any good ideas?

The sad thing is this would have been the "rotation" whether Tillman crashed and burned, or had a great healthy season.

Asher should not be in the rotation.  He's great for a spot start or two and a low leverage long man but isn't good enough to start.

I'd bring Tillman back on a 1 year deal if they can sign him cheap.  Wouldn't surprise me to see him have a bounceback season.

Agree

Alec Asher is not a ML starting pitcher, even Ubaldo is better than Asher

Hunter Harvey

Hunter Harvey

He's pitched ~25 innings since 2014.  He's never pitched over A ball.  He's still rehabbing from TJ surgery.

Erick Frede into the rotation after trade for one of our relievers.

Miley may be back. 

Have no idea who 4th and 5th starters are. Nobody in our system.

If we fall out of I think you can move some guys that ge the us a starter or two from other teams minor leagues.  If Britton comes back healthy we should be able to move him and Brach to some teams in contention that need back end help.  The Nats, Twins wnd Brewers all need major help in pen.  Nats have Erick Frede,  Twins have Gonsalves and Brewers have Hader and Ortiz.  The best think for us is if the central stay close and Brewers and Twins stay in it.

We'll sign/trade for a usual suspect off the scrap heap times 3 I am guessing.  And get similar results. 

[bpilktree]

I think we will keep Miley or look stJaime Garcia for left handed.
