Total ERA over 5 in 2018.

Over 6 in 2019.

Over 6 again with us in 2020.

His career WHIP is 1.50.

What are we expecting to get here exactly?  Not trying to be a overt pessimist.

Realistically, just hoping to catch lightning in a bottle for a few weeks/couple of months before reality sets in.   He had a nice spring so hopefully that momentum continues for a little while.

Sometimes he looks good one time through the order.  I think a combo of Lopez and LeBlanc for 6 competitive innings would be a win.

Looking under the hood a bit, last year he was very good as a starter facing batters in their first PA (first time through the order). .605 OPS against first time through as a starter, with that number jumping to .966 and 1.048 on the second turn.

Similar pattern for his whole career, but a little less start, at .738/.934/1.032

Found my kernel of optimism for the day.

The current Yankees are 9 for 34 against Lopez with a .533 OPS.   only two XBH.

Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I really appreciate that. I came to this topic to say that Lopez was going to get utterly destroyed tonight. After reading your contribution, I will remove the word “utterly”

I hope we can get 5 to 6 innings tonight out of our starter Jorge-Wade LeBlanc-Lopez.

If we are still in the game at that point, we hand it over to our good relievers.   If we aren't, Ben's nephew gets gets to make his major league debut.

Not a lot of soft spots in that lineup.   Unless Bruce is washed up.   Hate playing the Yankees early, before Stanton and Judge have had a chance to go on the disabled list.

    • Seems like a good thread to consider whether Mansolino has done a good job generally.   The O’s have been thrown out at home only 11 times, tied for 6th fewest in MLB (13.3 is average).   They have scored from 1st on a double 41.5% of the time, vs. league average of 38.2% of the time. They have scored from 2B on a single 62.9% of the time, vs. league average 61.8% of the time.   The O’s have been thrown out at 3B 6 times, tied for 3rd fewest in MLB. They have gone 1st to 3rd on a single 36.2% of the time, vs. league average 31.9%.   So, the overall profile is that the O’s take an extra base to get to 3B or score on a single or a double at a greater rate than the average team, yet they are thrown out trying to do those things less than the average team. Not all the credit or the blame for these things falls on the 3B coach.   And, there are some plays involving the 3B coach that I can’t capture, like scoring from 3B on a fly out or a ground ball.   However, based on what we can capture, I think you’d have to say that Mansolino has done a pretty good job, despite individual decisions that may have been wrong.  
    • Looks like AL East and AL West have same deal with 7 to play - 5 game leads and the chaser has three at the first place team. Royals now having lost 6 in a row - the 5/6/7 is fuzzy. Tuesday night will only be some fun if the O's pick up a game today - 1 back with a sweep going to the final weekend an opportunity, 2 back with a sweep going to the final weekend a mirage.     The Orioles have played the showdown generally into Grapefruit League mode, but at least yesterday was not a playoff game. NYY in great shape for 1 seed, won regular season series 4-2 over CLE, so effectively 3 up in the loss column.    CLE one of the few clubs with two off days in the final week, and a likely bye to rest that hard worked cadre of relievers.    That said, the Astros do play the Guardians the final weekend, and could be within striking distance of that valuable seeding into the ALDS round.
    • Nope..corn can be a slang for weed.  You are a morally bankrupt human being!!!!!!
    • Anything hit in the outfield no matter how deep you automatically tag up. That is learned in little league. This is not hard. I had a play exactly like this in town ball. You go back to the bag and then watch. As soon as the shortstop went down off you go and the game is over. Why that third base coach was pointing DOWN the line is a cardinal sin. Don't fire the guy but give him a solid scolding. 
    • Typical fail for SG on the literacy test.
    • So then I don't think he gets optioned. I think they save him for the postseason roster. I see Johnson and Jimenez going for Westburg and Urias. Mountcastle may not be back till the playoffs. 
    • For the O's they won game after game like this last year. For the Ravens go back to 2012 I guess. Im in South Florida at least you guys dont have to put up with the Dolphins. Now thats a team that will get on youre nerves.
