Let's be sure to welcome Dylan Bundy home this week

[Aglets]

So encouraging to see a former Oriole come into his own after signing a one year $4M contract with a team option for 2023 in Minnesota.

Hopefully some day soon the O's will be in a spot to patch holes up in their rotation by offering that kind of money to starters on a "Prove It" kind of deal.

Kind of a fascinating other angle to it............he will be going against Bradish who came back in the trade with LAA.

I always rooted very hard for Bundy to succeed, even once he was traded.   But I’ll be rooting for him to get clobbered when we face him this week.

I'll root for unearned runs.

Until then, we'll just have to settle for Matt Harvey types.

With our infield you've got a good chance to see that.

Hey, Lyles is making 175% of what Bundy is!

He finally got knocked around in his last start after being completely dominant in his first (3?).

Wrong team.

Oops.   Been a long day at work (after being out sick last Wed-Fri I have a lot of catching up to do).   My brain is fried.

With Can one never knows but I was hoping that he meant the Twins errors.

Totally fair point.  Tampa did a number on him.   Just a shame that we came to terms with Lyles on the exact same day that MIN came to terms with Bundy and they are paying less money.   I get he had an awful 2021.........

Chris Archer and Taijuan Walker are two other pitchers I wouldn't have minded the Orioles to take a gamble on. These pitchers can crash and burn like the scrapheap types, but the potential upside is a lot higher if they round back into form.

Some folks were mentioning Dallas Keuchel.  How is that working out for the White Sox?

Well I did say it's a gamble and I wasn't really big on Keuchel with him being 34 years old.
