Matt Harvey 2021


Il BuonO

Recommended Posts

Harvey deserved much better than he got today.  The catchable ball that was not caught did him in.  He is a veteran so probably it was not the first such happening  in his career, but they still hurt,  him and the whole team.  He truly has been a pleasant surprise this year, and I hope he keeps it up.

Pitched well enough to win. In fact, the top three have pitched well enough to win every single start. He did put on the two leadoff guys in the 6th and bullpen failed to help him out. After Scott and Valdez the bullpen is pretty thin. Hope Tate or Wells steps up. I would not mind seeing somebody take Fry's spot. Akin maybe?

Justin Dunn )was originally drafted out of high school in the 7th round in 2013 ...... he eschewed that offer to play college ball instead, and he wound up being drafted in the 1st round 3 years later in 2016, and wound up netting himself a #2.378 Million signing bonus.

Fun Stat: )If Galvis had made the play on that groundball this afternoon, and Paul Fry had not allowed both of Harvey's runners to score in Boston, Matt Harvey would have a) 3.68 ERA )through 3 starts with the Orioles.

I've been impressed.

In my rat's ass of an opinion, Harvey has essentially been an average Major League starting pitcher so far in this still very young season ...... and that is still much better than most Oriole fans expected when he was signed to a Minor League contract back on February 13th.

I mean, just the fact that there was question as to whether or not Harvey was pulled at the right time in the 5th inning of a Major League Baseball game today says a lot about his latest attempt at a comeback.

I really thought Harvey had no chance making the team. I was completely wrong and Harvey has been serviceable  so far.

Who was the poster that wanted to argue with me that Harvey was overrated as a prospect just because he was with a NY team(and not even the Yankees as if anyone cares about the Mets)?  Harvey is a good player and even though his ERA doesn’t look awesome, he has done much better this season than the stats. I hope he continues to pitch like he has and I hope the defense starts to actually play behind him. I’m rooting for the guy.

    • The game is already tied. If he gets thrown out, the O's still have a runner in scoring position and just one out. You really didn't have much to lose by sending him there, with a chance to end the game.
    • Yes.  He’s not a great bunter but at least try it once.   Santander was today’s choker.  He’s gotta be able to hit a freaking fly ball there.  
    • Same exact question Ravens fans ask every season.  No killer instinct.  In the game’s biggest moments, they come up small.  Exactly what you saw today.  Pathetic 
    • Should we have gone with a suicide or safety squeeze with Mullins? He might be better at bunting than hitting deep fly balls. Just a thought. 
    • I agree with the second but not the first. If the first fails, that's an extra out. If the second fails then they just get an out at home instead of an out at first, which is not really relevant with Gunnar going to 3rd. For the first case I'd think you need to be like 80% to succeed for it to be right, but for the second like 20%.
    • Bump. Tonight's game wasn't just "winnable" -- it would have been one of the top 2-3 wins of the season. Down 2 in the 9th and we come out single, single, walk, double to tie the game and have two of our fastest runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs, with our 2-3-4 hitters coming up next.  And our guys gagged. They wilted under pressure. They choked.  Again.  This has happened so many times this season that I believe we need to consider the real possibility that the Orioles as currently constructed lack the character, stamina, -- the heart, if you will -- to win games like this. I think these players fail so often because they expect to fail. I remember after we won it all in '83 reporters were interviewing Ken Singleton in the locker room and one of them asked if the Orioles had been lucky. "You make your own luck" he responded. Well, the 2024 Orioles are making their own bad luck over and over again. How does that cycle of failure come to an end? I wish I knew.
    • I know the OH hates Holliday, but it's a no brainer keeping him over Soto. We're talking about bench players who are going to, at most, have a small role in a few games. Soto has no pop and is slow. He's a warm body as it is. Holliday's ability to run can be very useful in the playoffs.
