2018 Chris Tillman


Il BuonO

Recommended Posts

Well, that game and Tilly's performance turned out much better than I anticipated.  I also went to Sunday's win.

I am now 3-1 on the year.  The O's are 5-19 in the games I have not attended.  I believe for the good of the team, you all should pitch in and get me the complete 81 game home plan!  If we win even 50% of our away games, that's a 100 win season and we would probably have home field for each playoff round, which again, for the good of the team, you all can send me to each home game.  

For a small price per person, you, the Orioles Hangout community, could guarantee an Orioles World Championship for the first time in 35 years.

That WHIP would make a nice ERA

I don't want to hear there are no better options. If that is true, then dan and Buck both need to be fired because they couldn't develop anyone worthwhile enough to take his place.

We all know there are better options, it's just that no one in management seems capable of making Buck do anything he doesn't want to do. There is no other possible explanation for him still being run out there.

At this point the best option might be to go for a first or second draft pick. You gotta have aTillman on your team to do that.

I think Bleier and Castro (and he’s no great shakes) would both be better options. Please spare me the, “Bleier is too valuable in his current role,” tripe either.

No one currently has a valuable role on this team. Machado has trade value, but he can’t carry this team. They’re awful.

Heck, leave Tillman there and improve their chances at a number one pick.

Any chance Tillman just retires? I know there's still money on the table and all that, but there also has to be some professional pride for a guy that used to be pretty decent major league pitcher. I can't believe that he wants to keep going out there unable to perform. He has to know he's finished, right?

We are all calling for Buck and Dan's heads if they don't cut Tillman, but Brady led the charge on the Cashner and Cobb signings. Would that not lead you to believe that he did the same with Tillman? Either way if Tillman gets another start someone should be fired. We've given Tillman enough rope to hang himself 10 times over.

His next schedule start would be a home game

Do they continue to insult the fan base?

Roch was arguing with fans on Twitter yesterday about this. You should read the back and forth. Seemed childish, but a MASN employee has to do the PR work.Dempsey did say on the postgame that the Orioles needed to decide about Tillman really soon  and if not sooner.

 

Roch on Twitter:

Feel free to disagree. It's fine. I get it. I'm just offering the explanation. But some mental midgets are having tantrums and that's typical.

 

Wow. OK, so much for engaging the fans here, Matt. I'm explaining why he got another start tonight. You wanna get personal. Yeah, do it from your basement. Good idea.

Wow, when you lose Rick Dempsey I'm not sure who you might have left in your corner?

j/k

You probably still have Jim Hunter.

oh and Mike Bordick.

Tom Davis........  ;)

    • Tell me how can Harbaugh help him when he doesn't know how to help himself. Harbs is the worst at burning timeouts stupidly then not having any when they are needed at crunch time. 
    • Yes the same here. They are going to the playoffs and yet I have no feeling towards it whatsoever. Weird feeling. Like you just know they are going to get bounced in the first round. It looks inevitable. I mean you could make a case the Tigers are more deserving of the Orioles spot. They are playing some great baseball of late. 
    • Man Baltimore sports has not been kind. The Orioles are on a  3 month tailspin and the Ravens did what they do best and blew another double digit 4th quarter lead to a inferior team.  Let's see if the Orioles can right the ship,  though I'm not holding my breath on that one at all. Yikes. 
    • Idk how impactful this was, probably pretty low on the list of problems, but this is the 2nd straight week that Lamar threw the ball late in the game and the receiver was unable to get oob.  The ball to Bateman is probably excusable because we had more time on the clock and we needed the deep ball to be in position to make a run, but this time throwing a 12 yard dump to Andrews was just straight up stupid IMO.  I get that they're going to play outside leverage all day every day in this situation but just throw it away and try to take another shot.  Lamar has to have more clock awareness than that,  and Harbaugh has to instill in him the importance of saving those seconds on the clock.
    • Sorry but that response from Fuller sounds to me like too many words, concepts, abstractions, and if that's how he communicates, wordy and convoluted, it's a lot for hitters to carry "into the box." Not to mention all the specifics involved, re. what pitches and locations to look for, all the analytics of how to do the swing and torque the body, etc. I'm no coach but I can imagine a whole season of this approach just becomes information overload. Maybe it's not rocket science, after all (with all due respect to ex-NASA Sig). Maybe the antidote is more Zen: just see the pitch and hit the dang thing.  BTW I think the analytical, overthinking approach is better suited to the pitching side, where you can plan your attack based on all the data. Hitting is more reaction, no time to think. You can't beat pitching using the same approach--rather, need the opposite approach, to counter with instinct and intuition. At least, that's my cheap (2 cents) advice!
    • The proposition that every auction automatically results in an overpay is simplified indeed.  Granted, "kind of true" is a low bar to clear, but still...
    • Should probably move this to the minors section.  I don't see him in the majors again this season.
