I went and watched several of his starts last night as well as video of Johnson, McDermott and Cano.  As usual, I'm going to be a little different from what I had read from some sources on these

Struck out the first three batters of the game.  They say he's 6'3'' 180 but he looks a lot taller than that.   Fastball sitting 91-92 and touching 94 and the curveball looks to be a real weapon for him.  His curve is 74-76 and his slider is 84-85.  Looks like he is comfortable throwing both breaking balls whenever he wants and even when behind.  Throws a lot of strikes and when he missed, he just misses outside zone.  He gets a lot of his Ks on the breaking pitches and when they don't swing and miss, they are driving it into the ground.   His fast ball is sneaky because he throws so many breaking pitches.  He had 5ks through 2ip to start the game.  He threw a ton of groundballs tonight which was nice to see.  I think there were only 4 balls hit in the air.  Pretty dominating performance.  I'm a fan.

Relieved GRod tonight and was terrible.

No idea why they used him that way though.  

To keep him pitching on his regular day, I assume.  Grayson was never going to throw more than 3 innings so there were always going to be plenty of innings for Povich to piggyback.  

His command wasn’t good and the ump had a tight strike zone.  He also was victimized by a very good bunt with a runner on 1st and nobody out.   Handley made a nice play to try to get the batter but he beat it by a half-step.

Povich gets the ball for the Tuesday-Sunday two step at Akron with an opportunity to pitch the Baysox into the Eastern League playoffs.

Norby, Mayo and Williams all reached and scored in the top of the 1st to give him at least three runs to work with out of the gate.

Not ruling out a jump in ability in 2023, but I feel like he’ll be a 2024 guy for the Os. I don’t think he has the physicality quite yet. Saying that, the analytics guys will get ahold of him this off-season, so maybe the jump happens sooner. I just feel like he needs time.

He has been pretty underwhelming since going to AA, so I tend to agree.  I’m guessing he starts in AA next year but I guess that depends on what happens this offseason and how he looks in camp.

Long lefty...  

 

Thanks. Reminds me a bit of Matusz in both body and action to the plate. I did notice that despite the strikeouts there are a ton of guys on base in most of the clips. Might be because of the amount of traffic but I was waiting to see the difference between his windup and stretch but it looks like he was pitching exclusively from the stretch even without guys on base.

      This guy pitched three no-hit innings against the O's back in April.

      O'Hearn blatantly disregards the need to run up the starter's pitch count and lines a base hit on the first pitch.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      I absolutely would not pay a price that includes Mayo and Basallo. Where are the instances recently as it relates to trades where a team gave up two top 15ish position player prospects for any pitcher? I bet they are very rare, and even less rare with pitcher injury rates being what they are. I get that the Tigers can play hard ball and don't "have" to trade Skubal. But I also know that is a risk for them in that he could get hurt and then have no trade value between no and next deadline. IMO the Tigers are not going anywhere with or without Skubal for the next few seasons. They simply don't have the position player talent/offense to be a serious contender. And there best prospects (while admittedly very good) are all in single A. That's why I don't think that Kjerstad holds much appeal for them. Because he doesn't really match their competitive timeline. I don't think any team would pay that kind of price for Skubal. IMO only the Phillies are in a position to offer that sort of package. Maybe Seattle? But neither of those teams need pitching. The Phillies are absolutely loaded as is in the pitching department. And Seattle does have enough offense to seriously challenge. Having said all that, I would certainly seriously consider surrendering one of Mayo/Basallo. But it would have to be in a type of deal like this where I get back a difference making starter who is cost controlled for more than one year. And yes to McDermott (absolutely). Now DeLeon is interesting in that he may have some serious upside. But if you believe in your International/Dominican academy/program, then you have to trust that you can find/farm more young/high upside arms like him.

      Santander gets his first Coliseum homer in his last game there, wrapping one around the foul pole.

      Trade Proposal: Fedde & Kopech for Norby & Beavers

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      I think those two would be fine in order to get us through the regular season. My concern recently is at least one time through the rotation the last 4 times, we have had at least one blow up start thus taxing our bullpen. Those two would be fine in order to provide a much higher floor than some of our last three starters. However, I don't really think either does that much for us when the leaves change and the calender turns to October. If we are in an elimination game and either is on the mound against one of Seattle's starters, I think they would have the advantage. (Not that Seattle is a shoo-in for the playoffs.) But Philly and the Dodgers are most likely to get to the Series (which of course is no guarantee). And if we were to face either one, I don't like our chances against their top 3 with Fedde and/or Severino on the mound. Plus, I think we need protection at the top of the rotation in the instance that Burnes is to leave after this season. I'm not sure Grayson plus the rest of the non-Burnes guys that we have is even a rotation that qualifies for a playoff birth let alone wins a World Series. A lot of posters are clinging to our the stat that points to our team ERA being 5th in MLB. But if you like at how much it spiked in June and how high it is so far in July, it is clear that it is really going in the wrong direction.
