If it turns out that Bradish is done for the season or has to spend extended time on IL, might the O's make the move to sign Trevor Bauer? He's pitching very well in the Mexican League. Wouldn't surprise me to see some team sign him between now and the trade deadline. Just askin...
I wouldn't put it past the O's offense to carry them in a similar way. But I wouldn't want to count on it, either.
(For reference on the difference, looks like Texas scored 5.71 runs/game during the postseason last year. The O's are at 5.07 runs/game this season.)
I'm hoping the PRP injection wasn't just buying Bradish a few months only delaying the inevitable Tommy John surgery. If Bradish ends up going under the knife there's a decent chance we won't see him again until 2026.
Bradish was throwing really hard tonight so I'm hoping it's just some soreness from overexerting himself and he'll be fine with a little time off. This isn't encouraging and Elias is going to be busy working the phones for pitching help the next 45 days.
