Ten strikeouts and five walks in 15 2/3 innings against minor league opposition.  He'd fit right in.

I didn't mention his ERA, I mentioned his walk and strikeout rate.

Soooo An 8.00 ERA from Tillman is better?

[Lucky_13]

At this point why not? 

It'll give duquette to say qualified major leaguer and veteran pitcher in the same sentence so there's that.

Are the Orioles in any position to be picky right now?   It's throw stuff against the wall and see if anything sticks time.

Probably could do with a little more velo if we want it to stick, but tempting, mighty tempting...

I think so.

After Jim Palmer was elected to the Hall-of-Fame in 1990, he tried to make a comeback in 1991.

It's probably the same for the pension-collecting players. They shouldn't be penalized for longevity and/or senior citizen effectiveness.
