Why wouldn’t you let him go another inning last night.  He has clearly built the count to where he should be able to get closer to 100.

I would have.   At least, let him start the inning and see how it goes.   Let’s face it, the O’s have been super-conservative on pitch counts the last two years, especially with Rodriguez.

In what I hope are the last links to Grayson running circles around all the other pitchers in the league he is in as he has done  in every league in which he has pitched these last couple years, here is this morning's, showing him up 32-24-22.  Good on the Tides social media for touting the Kyle Muller matchup last night, had not realized he is perhaps the favorite to be International League Pitcher of the Year in 2022.

The 8.1% margin between 1st and 2nd place is the same as the margin between 2nd and 15th.

For posterity's sake, here is AA in 2021 and 70 innings (delta between 1st/2nd equals delta between 2nd and 29th)

And here is A+ ball in 2021 and 20 innings, where the smaller sample size and relievers qualifying helped some others to keep up.

Lastly 2021-2022 All Affiliated Minor Leagues, 100 innings.

Only a little over 2 weeks and the O's avoid Super 2 status on GrayRod.  With this last start, it's starting to look suspicious that they are doing exactly that.  It's not like the O's could use another starter now with Means done for the season and Watkins on the IL and Bradish looking like crap.

Not sure why the Orioles wouldn't want to wait two more weeks - with three more starts - if it means avoiding Super 2 status

Because it'd be the wrong thing to do.  /s

Not sure, in the big picture, that there is any significant difference in 10 starts at AAA compared to 15. Plus, it always sounds like people who judge what's "right and wrong" sound a little like they have a God complex.

I think folks who judge folks who judge what right and wrong are just as bad.  😉

I believe he means morally wrong to keep a guy in the minors when he’s ready for the majors, to deprive him of earning more money.  

I don’t necessarily agree with him, but I certainly don’t think he has a “God complex.”

    • HEY YANKEES! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnxNRPy_SOA
    • Yeah I'm all for sportsmanship but seeing 'Congratulations Yankees' at or near the top of the board is sickening, not gonna lie.  There is no high road when it comes to these clowns.  Boone's constant whining, the well-documented HP ump favoritism (I don't care if its framing or whatever, its happening, and its annoying AF), the whining about Judge getting hit on the hand while their guys constantly pitch inside including of course the Kjerstad play where they were literally cutting up on the bench as he lay prone on home plate, the ginormous payroll, the incredibly entitled fan base booing at pitches being called balls that are three inches off the plate, that stupid roll call, that stupid whistle after strikeouts, the stupid national media drooling over a Judge v Ohtani WS possibility, Nestor Cortes and his dumb mustache, the mediocre stadium that is revered simply because its called Yankee Stadium, the ridiculously short RF porch, the Soto Shuffle or whatever the hell it is. Congratulations my ass.  Screw those dudes.
    • Here's the deal. I doubt anyone on the Yankee's board congradulated us last year. This year they won the East. Whippie for them. It's like saying the IRS won tax season. IF, we do anything in the playoffs, we may meet again. But there are some significant hurdles before that. And they could easily lose along the way. Cleveland, Houston, Detroit, and KC are no walk in the park. I'll root for the O's to go as far as they can and that the Yankees are one and done. We are in. I hope we win one more so we play the opening round in Oriole Park. If not, we are still in and have to do what we got to do to go anywhere. Two years in a row. While the Red Sox, Blue Jays, and Tampa sleep. Year two with a heck of a lot more obstacles. This may not be a WS year but we are competitive, young, and a hell of a lot classier than that bunch in the Bronx. 
    • The usage of Cano last night was poor, I don't even blame him really.  Yankees had 9-1-2 coming up, and Torres is well known (based on the telecast) to hit Cano well, and hit sinkers well.  He laced that hit to RF off him on Tuesday where the Yanks screwed up the baserunning.  And Soto got a hit off him that same inning.  So it was pretty predictable that these guys were going to tee off when he came in, and that's exactly what happened. Not to mention he's pitched a lot recently, and Burnes should have pitched another inning anyway.  Just baffling decisions by Hyde last night, and I'm not one to generally question those types of things.  Even if the Burnes thing was pre-ordained, the choice of Cano for that moment was terrible.
    • Why is this thread on the Oriole Talk section.    It probably does not belong on the OriolesHangout  at all but if it stays it should be on the MLB section.
    • If there's two outs and its not Judge in the hole, I'm probably going with Perez, crossing my fingers he gets the lefty, and then starting fresh the next inning with Coulombe or someone else.  If there's one out, I'm going w/ Coulombe.
