Hoping Tate sticks in a relief role. Could help slowly improve the pen

I wanna say this is the first AA callup they've made this year. Not exactly Elias's style but they need arms. I'm guessing they hope to not get him in a game and option him right back down, but we'll see.

Seems like Tate would only be called  up because he is on the 40 man roster.   He hasn't pitched at AAA yet.   He may not be up for long.

Exactly, he's on the 40.

Eager to see if the advancements he's made since moving to the pen work in the majors.

See if he is worth keeping

Phillips is awful. He’s just a warm body.

But Tate May be something. Look forward to seeing him in action.

Me too. If he turns out to be a high-quality reliever, maybe the trade will end up working out after all. And we are almost certainly going to get to see him in tonight.

I am very sour on Phillips, however. He shows up, he’s terrible, he goes back down, until the next time he shows up and is terrible. I would rather have seen almost anybody else.

By my reckoning, Fry is the only guy who pitched last night who might possibly go tonight.   So unless Wojo + Fry can cover 9 innings (or 8 if Angels win), we will probably see both of them tonight.

And Wojo is coming off a career high in innings pitched and 100+ pitches, in 100 degree heat, with the added intensity of having a no hitter on the line.   I honestly don't expect greatness or length out of him tonight.

Admit it, you just don't like that he uses two L's in his name.

I'm the same way with all those Steven's who don't spell it the correct way (Stephen).

    • the question isn’t about being able to make the offers, it’s about being awarded compensatory picks for more than one.
    • I don’t consider a 4 o’clock game a night game. He also caught Wednesday night and Thursday day this week. Moral of the story is McCann will start 4 games in 7 days because he is Burnes preferred catcher.
    • It is absolutely possible. In 2022, the Mets gave a QO to Bassitt, Nikki, and DeGrom. The Red Sox gave a QO to Boegarts and Eovaldi. The Yankees gave a QO to Judge and Rizzo. The Dodgers gave a QO to Turner and Anderson. I know that it seems to be a foregone conclusion that Santander will not be on the team after this season, and while I generally agree that it is more probable than not that he will not be re-signed, I do think there is a non-zero chance that he will be retained. I think he is the most likely of Mullins, Hays, and himself to be retained, even if it is a small chance. The team has told us how they feel about his bat because he plays essentially everyday, and I have heard Kostka say that they value his clubhouse presence.
    • Santander won’t get a QO, and if he did, he would accept. His defense is declining and we have too many capable youngsters who should replace him effectively. But to your question, I don’t know if there’s a limit, but I doubt it.
    • O's will probably have to wait till July for a trade because there are so many more buyers than sellers.  I think teams like the Blue Jays, Rays Tigers and Mets are likely to be sellers but they are still in the race although not very good teams as constituted. 
    • No Scott. He’s way too undependable. We need someone who WON’T enter a game and walk folks like he’s promoting a healthy lifestyle. He’s been a lot bette4 this season, but he’s too undependable, and we already have too many of those. No Flaherty either. That’s like taking your GF back after she cheated on you.
    • The team's continued success has really put Elias on the spot IMO and I don't see a Flaherty type as an option anymore.  My money is on a sensible trade that comes at a price high enough that most of us here, including myself, won't like, but a premium comes with having bad luck and that's where the O's are at the moment.
