He gets one more start my guess and then Ramirez takes over his turn.  5 runs or more in each of last 4 starts.  It’s  going to be a revolving door with guys up and down this year.  I don’t know what record is for most pitchers used in season but we are gonna chase that record

It’s probably not the record, but tonight Thorne said the Angels have already used 11 this season.

The 2009 Orioles used 12 starting pitchers, which may or may not be the record. 

o

In fact, I remember when the 2009 Orioles broke the Major League record of the 1890 Pittsburgh Alleghenys for the most wins by a starting pitcher making his career Major League debut.

Brad Bergesen, Jason Berken, Brian Matusz, David Hernandez, and Koji Uehara all won their first games ever pitched in the Majors that season.

The previous record was 4, set by the 1890 Alleghenys.

The Mariners used 17 different starting pitchers last season and 40 different pitchers in total.  ?

One thing to think about with Hess is he only really has 2 workable pitches. FB/SL.

Yeah, he throws a change-up and a slow curve, but they aren't MLB quality pitches.

He threw 91 pitches yesterday, 3 curveballs, 3 changeups. The rest FB/SL.

David Hess probably has a big league future, but I think it's as a reliever.

Just a reminder.

(vs. INDIANS, 8/17)

 

After ceding a 2-run home run in the first inning, Hess managed to muddle through 5 additional innings without letting the opponent score.

His Strikes-to-Balls ratio was not very good )(53 )Strikes, )44 )Balls), )but he hung in there against a very potent offense on their homefield.

      Grade the Eflin Trade

      By Just Regular · Posted

      The earliest 2025 NFBC results exist, and slotted him about the 30th best AL starter for 2025 alone's expected statistical production.    Eflin and all five guys in Tampa's forecast rotation (Baz, McClanahan, Pepiot, Bradley, Springs) fell around that level. That assumes free agents Burnes, Snell, Flaherty, Kikuchi, Pivetta, Fried and Manaea fall about half into the AL. He'll start Opening Day, but it is a byproduct of the disappointing beginning to Grayson's career and Bradish's current injury. I think odds are pretty low he is a 2026 Oriole.

      RHH Outfield Targets

      Whoever we add needs to be able to play a solid CF or LF at OPACY and Pham definitely does not fit that bill.

      I'm one for Tommy Pham, even though I'll take heat for it.  I think the veteran aspect of it could be key. O'Neil would be great, but he also brings more of what we have in the Ks and HRs department

      Let's see how he does over a full year here first so we don't overpay for a SSS. He was pretty pedestrian prior to the trade.

      Do we agree that developing Kjerstad RF, Holliday 2B and Mayo 1B/DH.......

      By MarCakes21 · Posted

      I could see against tough lefties Holiday sits, Westy at 2B, and Mayo at 3B.  Or Holiday at SS to spell Gunnar sometimes too and this being the configuration. But yes, most of Holiday at 2B, Westy at 3B and Mayo DH or 1B.

      I don't think you bring Slater back if you add Bader (unless Austin's willing to take a MiLB deal and start the year at Norfolk) because then you have to get rid of either Urias or Mateo, and that doesn't seem wise with how thinned out the IF depth is now and Holliday still trying to get his feet under him.

      Co-hitting coach Ryan Fuller, Fredi Gonzalez and Jose Hernandez let go

      By Jammer7 · Posted

      This is true. However, it is more situational in the post season. Guys are pitched to differently. You have to take what the game gives you. Home runs happen, but the best teams know when to take that shot and when to shorten up or be more line drive oriented. Home runs can be a surprise to good hitters who simply were in time and put a good swing on plane through the ball. It was a line drive that ran out of field. Hitters have to know who they are. Some sit on fast balls early in the count in a certain small box. If they get it, they take that A swing. Or maybe they sit off speed early. They may take a strike that is more of a pitcher’s pitch, or one they were not looking for. if you’re sitting fastball early, not a great idea to swing at a curveball. Or vice versa. Whatever the case, with two strikes, you have to think contact and productive at bat. For some, that approach may be sooner in the at bat, of the situation dictates it. There is no BABIP if there is not a ball in play. So luck plays no role in a strikeout. It seemed like the Orioles, as a whole, in 2024 were looking a certain pitch, and if the pitch was hittable they would hack. Even if it was just off the plate. Too many big swings, and tons of resulting misses, in key situations where shortening up a bit was the better approach. Lastly, not many of our guys are true “home run hitters.” What I mean by that is when Santander strikes out swinging at a piece ch with a big cut. I get it. That is his game to be focused on driving the ball. That is what he gets paid to do. Along with that comes a fair amount of swing and miss, and roll over ground balls. Not all our hitters should be having the same approach. Gunnar may hit 35-40 home runs in a season, but he is a much more dynamic hitter than just a “home run guy.” He is capable of doing anything on the field. He is extremely talented, and we have a few more that may fall into that category some day. There are times to adjust and take what the game gives you. Go oppo for a single, put pressure on the defense. This game is hard, but we can do better. If we are going to win, we must do much better.
