For some reason, this thread became invisible in the Orioles Talk section.

I asked Paul Folk about it, and he said that it was invisible to him also, and he had no idea why.

So I'm reposting the thread with Il BuonO's OP, as Paul suggested.

I'm not sure he'll ever live up to the hype after being hampered so much by injuries, but it's a relief to see them moving in the direction of the promise he had by inserting him into the rotation.

Bundy offers the high velocity FB we'd all hoped for as he developed and two plus secondary offerings. His CH is a flat out great pitch. I've gone on about Tillman developing a very good change, but Bundy's may very well be better.

I don't expect a 5 inning no-hitter, and don't expect that they'll even get him to 5 IP until three or four starts unless he has an unusually low pitch-count, and that hasn't been his history.

In any case, there is a potential for more success than that of the people he's taking the place of. If he can work on keeping his pitch count down in his first few starts, then he will probably exceed the innings limit if he has success ........ and that can only mean good things for the team.

Bundy pitched the first complete game-shutout of his Major League career in his last outing against the Cano/Cruz-led Mariners ...... and the first complete game-shutout by any Orioles pitcher since 2014, when Chris Tillman and Miguel Gonzalez each threw one.

      The Difference between the O's and other Playoff teams

      By bpilktree67 · Posted

      I honestly think there is very little difference in most the teams that made the playoffs.  The most wins was 98 wins and there was 12 teams with 86 wins or more.  It also seems that many of the teams are on the same page with scouting and analytics now hitting wise.  Years back you had moneyball which the A’s used before anyone else.  Then the Astros and few teams started with analytics and seemed to be ahead of the rest of the league but they have caught up now imo.  Now the move seems to be on launch angle and hitting homers by getting the ball in the air but that seems to be across the league.  Obviously some teams have more money and more talented players but the strategy seems about the same.  The main differences I see is in pitching in the playoffs which is bullpen games and using openers rather then a starter to go 7 innings and carry your team to win now a slight sign of trouble they are taking them out.  With all these short inning guys and pitching them in certain pockets we are seeing very little offense and the hitting with runners in scoring position has been awful.  It all comes down to RISP at bats and getting 1 or 2 big base hits in those situations.  We just haven’t been able to get those hits so far in short series.

      And we've seen similar with Kjerstad. Kjerstad might be the best pure hitting prospect in the Orioles system of recent years besides Gunnar. I want to see him playing everyday next year is possible none of this sitting him versus LHP more often than not. These prospects need to get their reps and stop treating them like John Lowenstein and Benny Ayala.

      Offseason Trade Pondering

      I don’t see Elias trading off prospects anymore at least top guys.  We have moved a few guys in last year and I expect they try to build that back up.  They should have money to use if they want to add talent.

      Blah, well Rob Manfred has to be happy along with Fox network. A Yankees-Mets World Series match up is still on the table and the Dodgers as well if they win tomorrow. I knew the Royals would get jettisoned by the Yankees without too much of a fight.

      For Mountcastle …Maybe Chase Petty and Tristan Smith?

      I’m guessing they ask for Mayo or Basallo of Kjerstad. For me …I’d give them Kjerstad since he’s defensively challenged IMO. Maybe Kjerstad, McDermott, Beavers, and O’Ferrall?

      192 wins in two seasons is a pretty strong argument to stay the course.  That said, I wonder if the young players wouldn't be better off long-term if the scientific matchups took a back seat to the raw talent a little more than we've seen.  Overthinking something can be a thing you know.
