I said "tonight." But maybe Bridwell became a ground ball pitcher. 

"Tonight for the Orioles."

Just feeling that with the defense , Bridwell has the better chance. But in the game itself tonight...Hellickson, because of the Orioles offense right now and the defense.

Hellickson. He's been around the block a few times. Has Bridwell ever faced a line up like the O's? Hellickson just has to worry about Trout.

Bridwell has had great outings in NY & Boston, he's kicked Bostons butt twice I believe.

I would go with Hellickson. Wasn't really impressed with Bridwell when I saw him pitch for the O's. But I would not give Hellickson anything more than 52-48 odds of winning this game. 

Our lineup is certainly much better. Our Bpen is better. The Angels are still the favorites. ? Vegas doesn't like Hellickson.

If you believe Hellickson is the better pitcher, then the odds should be better than 52-48, because we are the better offensive team by a pretty wide margin.

I struggle to pick against an oriole, I'd probably vote Ubaldo over Kershaw if we were facing LAD. I think Bridwell is the better pitcher today. It would be nice to have another LH in the lineup and Davis not be so useless. This would be a nice Pedro DH night.

I don't think Bridwell will be very effective against our lineup - I just feel like we're on fire right now, and the momentum is solidly in our favor. That, and Bridwell's last outing was pretty bad. 

We've had success against pitchers with better track records than Bridwell in recent weeks. And I'm hopeful that Hellickson can pull a Beckham and be a star for the O's after coming over.

Knowing everything that you do. One game. Money no issue. Who do you want on the mound tonight for the Orioles.

Simple A/B

Of course explain your choice below.

I would rather have Hellickson pitch tonight  But the Dilemma is Bridwell will likely want to show the O's up because of them letting him leave.

      Baumann DFA

      By Malike · Posted

      For two years we talked about 7+ run leads possibly not being Baumann proof. I probably would have DFA'd Perez first, but I don't fault them here. They needed to get rid of someone and he was one of the two least reliable options out of the pen. I guess Perez got the LHP hard thrower advantage, even though he's not good.

      Boras has never had a guy sign a long-term extension with 2 years of service time or less. I'm sure it's something they will look long and hard at after the season. I don't expect that to change in May of this year, but I do think that if they make an offer that he turns down, people won't think they lowballed him.

      I'd have optioned Akin too...but I'd have DFA's Cionel Perez before Baumann

      Not saying they are one jerk but there’s always likely something that is the straw that broke the camels back and that outing yesterday may have been it.

      5/17: Henderson Leads The Way

      By justD · Posted

      I know you can go to the MLB.com site and see a highlight with commentary and all that, but I had a hunch last night for this particular AB and got lucky.  Was enjoying myself too much live to capture either of the triples for timing purposes 😆  But it was fun hearing this huge crowd erupt as it was headed back to tie things up in the bottom of the first!

      Agreed. My point was that the fans knew the Nats were trying.  The Orioles have not tried.  People can say that we don’t know but Gunnar was asked and said there were no talks that he had any knowledge of.  No player should be upset if the Orioles came out and said they wanted some extensions.  And the fans are going to be happy they are at least trying. Right now we have no evidence they have even tried.  This is why many, including some defending saying nothing, were upset with Angelos.

      It's hard to hit your way out of a slump when you are on the bench. Mullins is going to get chances, I don't believe he's completely cooked.
