So. Who’s available tomorrow? I applaud Hyde’s bullpen usage. He used everyone but LeBlanc, Sulser and Wells, but he tried to avoid using anyone for too many pitches, in case Lopez needs an early exit.

Armstrong threw 18. He’s out

Plutko threw 20 pitches. He’s out.

 

Valdez threw 16. He doesn’t throw hard so I don’t know how many pitches he can fling.

Scott threw 12.

Fry threw 13.

Could any of those three pitch again tomorrow?

By the way, who's starting on Friday against Oakland? I lost track with the off days and Kremer being sent down.

Lopez is currently lined up for Friday.  Then I suppose it's back to John MEANS BUSINESS.

I think at this point it will need to be a blown out before Armstrong and Wells are used in a game.   Armstrong has been bad and needs time in a blown to get back to his normal.  Wells has not pitched since April 11th and I would think he would be rusty when used.

I think the other 7 relievers should be available today with a day off tomorrow.

You must be taking Davis' IL stint hard.

I just had this vision of a public service announcement.  All of the Orioles position players, one by one, shown on camera with a knowing and concerned look, sun coming up behind the bleachers... in turn they each say "we're all pitchers".  Pan over to Stevie Wilkerson Pat Valaika... "I know how hard it is to be a Major League pitcher today.  Sometimes you're expected to throw 10, possibly 12 pitches in a single game, and then even come back and do that tomorrow or the next day.  But as position players we want you to know: we're here for you. If it's 12-3 in the third inning, we have your back.  We all had to pitch in Little League, many of us in high school.  We'll finish it out for you. We know a team with just 14 pitchers is abusive.  But we're here to say, you really have 26."  [Drone shot flying up over the Warehouse... Inner Harbor... and fade to black]

      Fire Tony Mansilino

      By Frobby · Posted

      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.

      AL playoff picture

      By Just Regular · Posted

      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.

      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.

      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.
