I don’t think people realize how little pitching we have in the minors other than the guys currently on the 40 man. There is no pitching pipeline. This is it. We draft hitting. 
 

What we should do is take this most recent group of failed starters and convert them to full time relievers now before they are out of options. SP is going to have to come from outside the org and our relief depth isn’t that great either.

Thank you!!! And a chance Hall is a reliever. Lacy over Kerjstad but I digress.

I'm aware and why it's really important that Grayson Rodriguez makes it as a starter. I'd say the same about DL Hall, but with his injury history there's a chance he might end up a bullpen arm.

This is also why the O's have to give every potential starter multiple chances.  It's sad that a 2022 starter is only expected to go 5 or sometimes 4 innings but the O's are still struggling to find pitchers who can fill these spots.

I agree, in two years, I don't think our five starters will have come through our system

Hyde is going to take what he's given and like it.

Hyde has more input on who is on the team than you or I do.

He doesn't have less.

Might be the same amount.

Calling up Reyes now makes me wonder if Sunday will be a bullpen game.

I'll give Owings credit he's equally bad at all positions you play him at and he makes want Pat Valaika back on the team as the utility player.  

I actually liked Pat Valaika.

Valaika was a better pitcher.
