Will that mean they job his service time next year? Or do you think he starts the season in the bigs?

I think he will be penciled into the OD rotation and will get a full opportunity in spring training to put his name there in ink.   If he’s held back, it won’t be purely for service time reasons IMO.

My observations, starting with a messy first inning: -- It was an hour-and-a-half rain delay on top of getting up early (out of his routine?) for the lovely "school daze" game (I used to love the

Can we just stop arguing about this over and over and over?   Can’t we just have a night where we enjoy a great start by our top pitching prospect?    Frankly, I’m thrilled.  My one worry about R

What I saw was a little shaky in the first inning, trouble locating. Second and third innings much sharper. Every pitch - curveball, breaking ball in the dirt, high fastball - was going right where he

Hope you’re right.

“I think if I were to miss the rest of the season, it would be pretty tough, but I’m really excited to know I’ll probably have that last month to go.”

I would be absolutely shocked if he pitched for the O’s this year. But I would also be happy to be wrong!

It would be special if Grayson could join the O's rotation in Sept.

Perhaps he can be one of the few callups when rosters expand. (do they still expand by a few players?)

I'm also excited about the prospect of adding GRod to the mix next season, with Means as a midseason addition. The O's will add 2 promising pitchers without spending money or having to trade away players

I use “shocked” just because of Elias pattern of behavior. Rehabs are ultra conservative, starting at much lower levels. I just think once that timing plays out, they are not bringing him up for 2 weeks.  Now maybe if we are out of contention by that point it could change things. But I still don’t see it.

Agree with this.

A month from today, GRod should be able to go at least 4-5 innings in a game.  
 

Whether or not they have do that in the majors is to be seen.  Some of that may have to do with how guys are pitching.  
 

I think they should do it anyway, to get him at least some level of experience but if they are still playing well and in contention, they may choose to let him eat up the innings in the minors.

The AAA season going through Sept now is a big change for the big clubs.  Giving those guys more innings is huge.

I think it could also depend how he pitches during the rehab. If he starts right out on fire and sharp, they may see no reason not to do it.

Yeah, rosters expand to 28 for September, (29 for doubleheaders, like the one on September 5th).

Grayson would also have to be added to the 40-man roster, but he has to be added in December anyway, so it is not a big deal.

I wouldn’t be shocked either, if he’s pitching well in AAA.  Obviously they will need to decide that pretty quickly.  But if there’s 15-20 games to go, we’re in the thick of the race and he’s healthy and had shaken off the rust, we could see them pull the trigger.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Three Run Homer · Posted

      If we don't want to trade one of our big three (or four?) prospects, then focusing on bad contracts or rentals is our only option to salvage this season.  Better to do that than to do nothing.  If we only do rentals, we'll need to add one or more starters over the offseason through free agency.  If Rubinstein has told Elias that he's willing to spend in free agency, then that reduces Elias' need to get a starter who is controllable beyond this year.

      That STRK column in the standings is very persuasive.  Look elsewhere and you'll see that in spite of the L5 they still have the top run differential in the AL and are closer to the East lead than they were a week ago.

      This is a mix of hitting two really hot teams, our pitching attrition, and just some bad luck. Everything is not going their way right now.  Sure, I think the rotation needs some help after losing Bradish, Means, Wells and Kremer and yes, Elias should have done more this offseason to sure up this pen (I was saying that all offseason and through spring), but when the team pitches good it doesn't hit and when they score a bunch, their pitching stinks.  This team was not going to continue on a 105-win pace with their pitching injuries, but luckily, the Yankees have not been playing great either after being lights out for awhile (while the Orioles were red-hot).  No this team is not going to go into a giant tailspin where they end up under .500 and yes, they will eventually break out of this. We saw in the schedule this was a tough stretch of opponents and lack of off days and it's just kind of caught up just as they hot two teams getting hot.  They're going to be fine when it comes to making the playoffs. Now, do they have a deep playoff caliber rotation and bullpen? No, I think they need to make moves, move that are going cost some players people don't want to see go, but when you have never drafted and developed a major league pitcher in 5 years of drafting, this is what your strategy was devised for.  Develop the bats, trade/acquire for the arms. Now it's time to see if Elias is able to fulfill his strategy.

      Not addressing the bullpen other than a stopgap closer in the offseason is kinda coming home to roost now. Doesn't help that Cano and Perez haven't been very good either. The rotation has just been pure bad luck. When your 2/4/5 plus Wells are gone, sooner or later you are going to feel it. Irvin and Suarez have pitched above expectations but you gotta assume they are going to settle into mid-4 ERAs sooner or later. No idea what the front office is going to do by the deadline. It's a sellers market it seems. I will say I hope major moves are made between now and the start of the 25 season, because it is pee or get off the pot with a lot of these guys on the farm.  And if Burnes isn't back, there is a TON of pitching that needs to be added.
