Trumbo's aversion to getting pied was based on the potential for injury -- at least  that's what I thought, maybe because I see the risk of injury to eyes from surprise pies.

That, or he's a sourpuss.

I think he gets DFA'd when he comes back healthy.  Nunez has staked a claim to be on this team.  4 months of Trumbo playing out his contract shouldn't have any bearing on the long term development of this roster and the players on it.  Maybe Nunez isn't viewed as a long term piece here and that's fine.  But Nunez has way more to offer the future of this team than Trumbo does, even with all of his deficiencies.

But Trumbo might get hot and hit 15 home runs in a month, and the Orioles can then trade him for a prospect at the trade deadline. lol

Maybe he is allergic to ingredients in some of the pies Adam used.

I think Davis goes on the 60 day IL for his hip when Trumbo joins the team. Trumbo and Mancini split time at RF and 1B.

I will be shocked if Trumbo makes it back, and it would be even more surprising to see him in RF.  DH only....if at all?  But I do agree that CD goes 60 days.  We will see.

Davis seems to think he'll be back in 10 days, so that would be a bit of a shock. I think he probably doesn't make it back in 10, but his hip injury would have to really go south for a 60-day assignment.

If the plan is for Ubaldo to fall down in the parking lot, you have to be sure Ubaldo knows that he fell down in the parking lot and doesn't tell the media he's fine.

He wants to be back when the O's are in Texas. He could be surprised to find himself on a rehab assignment.

Trumbo played DH for Bowie on Tuesday night, going 0 for 4 with two strikeouts.   He sat out last night.   

He was at Oriole Park last night, in the dugout with the team.  They showed him on TV.

    • There is an argument to be made that you bring in 2-3 new relievers and make the offense even better. Solve your weakness and improve upon your strength.  And just go with what you have at starter.    Playoffs are largely about scoring and your bullpen anymore.  You hope for 5, maybe 6 good innings out of your starter.  You need your starters to not lose you the game. forget the bigger name closer type guys.  Go after the guys like Nardi and Walker.  They won’t cost you any of your top guys. And make a play for Robert. An injury prone guy but a potential difference making talent when he’s healthy. Plus it gives us another righty and he can play CF at a high level. Maybe you just do something like that, get Mayo and Holliday up here and try to bludgeon teams.
    • The long innings yesterday momentarily enabled him to regain "qualified" status with 70.1 innings in 70 team games. Mid-June Fangraphs has 74 arms keeping the pace.    Grayson lands: 3rd in PitchingBot estimated ERA 5th in Stuff+ 10th in Fastball velocity 27th in ERA 24th in K-bb 34th in fWAR Past 1 Calendar Year, he and Zack Wheeler have the same ERA.
    • Gotta think he's got a good chance at getting selected for the All Star Game along with Burnes and maybe Kimbrell
    • I agree with a lot of this. I think I also should’ve decided the offense of stats of the guys ahead of him. Because other than the big three, the rest of the stats really aren’t very impressive for the remaining outfielders in the American League. I just seems like this year, for whatever reason there is a ton of outfielders with great  offensive production.
    • How many times has an Oriole rookie tried to establish himself while also dealing with being Mooooore than just a rookie. I think Cowser will be fine and I hope patience prevails. Stats aside, I see something. I mean in all his struggles - ups and downs - that "fun" personality prevails. Gotta root for that - right? MOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
    • He definitely overthrows at times.  To lefties, it’s normally the high and outside overthrow and to righties it’s normally the non competitive high fastball. But overall, he’s really pitching at a high level.    Part of the reason offense is down is because of arms like Rodriguez.
