I'm done with Brooks, Eshelman, Bleier, and Tayler Scott as far as 40 man evaluation goes .  They need to be DFA'd.  I believe all would make it through waivers any way. Especially since Yac did. 

 

What a horrific take? You want to DFA Bleier? The guy who before his injury had the greatest start in the history of MLB baseball. From the Baltimore Sun: 

His ERA+, which adjusts a player's ERA to the league-average, was 220 — the highest of any pitcher with at least 100 major league innings in baseball history.

We should hold on to him. https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/orioles/bs-sp-orioles-richard-bleier-activated-20190516-story.html

What was Harvey hitting on the radar gun in the minors? He was consistently 98 to 100 tonight!!! I thought I heard Palmer say he was like 94 mph.


Got me excited for the future.

He was usually 94-96 as a starter, but has been mostly 97-99 in relief.

      Elias: It's on me

      So a “Pollyanna” then like me, @wildcard and others (joking of course) 😇 I’m in your camp but really wonder if Elias/Hyde and Co. can truly“flip the script” as @Just Regular alludes.

      So thats because the extra space in the OF allows for more balls to fall in? If so, I don't really see an issue if its providing offense in a different way.

      I'm neutral on it. I don't like how the old dimensions played like a wiffle ball field. Both teams have to play on it and the O's do have two good OF's so in that sense it helps us. RHH will probably hate it so very few would ever sign in Baltimore unless they thought the O's were in World Series contention. If they put it in the middle ground then the dimensions become like every other park and Im not sure I want that. At least Camden Yards plays different.

      I agree with this.  It was a completely idiotic take to criticize the fans.  And Russo on MLB Network did as well.  Did those guys watch this team at all this year? They were under .500 for the last 88 games of the season.....the worst team in the AL East.  These were the home series they played over the last three months: Chicago Cubs (swept and outscored 21-2), Yankees (lost 2 of 3 and needed two Yankee errors to walk off the last one), San Diego (lost 2 of 3), Toronto (won 3 of 4), Washington (split 1 of 2), Boston (split 2 of 4), Houston (split 2 of 4), White Sox (won 2 of 3 but lost last one 8-1), Tampa (lost 2 of 3), San Fran (lost 2 of 3), Detroit (lost 2 of 3). What is that, 15 - 20 in their last 35 home games?  And then they top it off by losing to the Royals 1 - 0 in the first game?  So fans are supposed to be excited and encouraged by that stretch of baseball?   You want people to show up to games, play like the Padres. Don't have your prized prospects go bust, don't have your stars fall off a cliff, and learn how to play fundamental baseball instead of obsessing about each swing's potential exit velocity.

      I agree and would add Cowser to that mix, since “we” aren’t sure if he becomes anything more than this iteration; I.e., good fielder with pop but lots of whiff.

      I'll dislike it if the last out is some 29/30 bat off of Mountcastle's bat. Of the two which is more likely to conquer the wall?

      We'll like it if the last out is ever some 29/30 ball off Aaron Judge's bat.
