Thoughts on Voth @Tony-OH, from a scouting point of view?

From a stats point of view I'm not really seeing anything that's saying "fluke" or "regression to the mean pending," he looks more or less like the real deal, better than Wells (statistically), who we give a lot of plaudits around here.

The Orioles are 8-2 in games Voth starts, and he's now gone 5+ three times in a row after doing it just once in the first seven starts.  The bullpen seems to be getting more credit but the out of

He's been talking a lot about the shape of that curveball during today's game too.  Baseball Prospectus had an article on why Voth is succeeding with the Orioles while failing with the Nats and o

When the Orioles were in their 1966-83 heyday, it seemed like we were always getting players from other teams who played much better once they were in an Orioles uniform.   Guys like Don Buford, Mike

A nice start wasted by the usually reliable pen.

Speaking of that, does anybody know when Wells will be back?

He pitched in rehab Sunday for the Baysox, and was still on their roster on Tuesday when I last checked.  It was a good outing, 2.2 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K.

That's Alexander Wells that pitched in rehab for Bowie.

I would GUESS that @O's84 was asking about Tyler Wells, given that we miss him much more than Alexander at the major league level, he was kind of our ace after Means went down.

But who knows, maybe he was asking about Alexander.

Anyway, the last I heard on Tyler was that he just started playing catch within the last copule days.

Oops, of course. 

It's been that kind of a screwup day for me, and not just here.  I should probably go take a nap.

Every time Voth or Kremer has a good outing, the likelihood that the O's pick up Lyles' option falls.  I'm to the point of thinking that the O's just need to get one good FA starter this offseason, let Lyles walk and otherwise go with what they have.  If they have more money to spend, get a middle of the order bat at 1B, corner OF or DH.

I'm with you if the TOR SP is a truly significant add, like a Verlander on a huge $$ short term contract or someone like Brandon Woodruff/Corbin Burns/Zac Gallen/Shane Bieber. 

And deal Mountcastle if a reasonable offer presents itself and spend for a highly productive 1B/DH combo. 

And it could very well be that their analytics see something in Lyles that causes them to renegotiate his next year to 2-3 years at a lesser overall average salary cost and keep him too.

Wells, Voth, Kremer, Grayson, + FA signing with Spenser Watkins as our 6th SP (probably want to go with a 6 man rotation with Grayson and Wells) would be my idea.

Definitely don't see the need for Lyles, with Means eventually coming back, and also Hall (and Povich?) waiting in the wings and hopefully continuing to develop.

Completely forgot about Bradish. Who's the odd man out if we sign someone in FA or bring someone in via trade?

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Safelykept · Posted

      Smith and Bowman signed Milb contacts, stop period. which means if they not have 6 years MLB service they make minor league money if they are in the minors. Albert signed a one guarenteed contract, 740k. Itwas A Milb contract to keep him off the 40. Even if he got DFA or never pitched one inning of MLB he still makes the 740k. He was good enough to demand this contract and get it. Smith and Bowman were not.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Warehouse · Posted

      Just because you sign as a free agent doesn’t mean you aren’t subject to the rules around 6 years of service time. For instance, I don’t believe Burch Smith or Matt Bowman can elect free agency unless they are outrighted, released, or non-tendered. However, there are examples of foreign professionals being eligible to elect free agency early - for example Shintaro Fujinama last year.  It’s not part of the CBA, but presumably the commissioner will approve that special covenant as part of an FA deal if the player has at least 6 years of experience in foreign league.  It’s possible they would let Suarez combine his 1 year MLB service time (prior to this season) with his 3 years in NPB and 2 years in KBO.  And it’s possible they let Suarez write these terms into an MILB contract that had split MLB terms.  It wouldn’t have been my starting assumption, but it seems plausible.

      Jim'sKid26 ok down in Ashville

      By George Zuverink · Posted

      Here I am checking in. We and our condo on the east side of Asheville made it through unscathed. On Tuesday we flew into DC and moved into a hotel in Falls Church. Our son, Eric, ordered us to make that trip and made all the arrangements because we had no internet and limited cell service. We expected to stay a week while electricity is restored and then we learned about the dire water situation. We are moving in with Eric and his family who have been supporting us in every way possible, anticipating needs and things that would help us. Our daughter, Robyn, and her husband, Ken live about 30 miles west of Asheville , Waynesville, had no damage, never lost power or water. Today they rescued my car from $30 a day hourly parking, threw out everything that was beginning to make the condo stink and tied up  a few ends we left loose when we left Dodge in a hurry. They are, collectively, the loving, supportive family everyone should want and have .
