Both are more of regular season arms. They’re not going to be back end arms in the pen. Suarez wasn’t used like that in his brief stint. He pitches to contact vs hunting for Ks. Both are suited to be regular season SP or bottom half of your pen relievers. -

I hope Adley beats out Perez. I believe this is where he lost to Heim last year. Mounty and Westburg will likely lose heads up. -

We have an off day to give Mounty an extra days rest. We have an off day next Monday as well with the ASB looming. Mounty is close to making the ASG so I doubt he wants to hit the IL. Meaning a RP would have to go for Mayo. I think we’re trying to keep Urias this season and move on from him in the offseason. Mayo is on target to be added as our extra player in September unless we have an injury. It sure would be nice to bring Mayo up and let him get a ton of ABs to be ready for the playoffs. At the end of the day, what’s worth more? Urias as an insurance policy that shouldn’t get ABs in the playoffs, or developing Mayo that should get playoff ABs? -

When Kremer comes back and if we get a #3 starter, would that help bolster the pen? You can move Suarez and Irvin/Povich into the pen. -

Those three starts were going against @NYY, @Hou, and Texas. He’s slated to go @Oak with an extra day of rest. We have to differentiate between regular season SP and playoff SP. Just like how we have to do with regular season RP and playoff RP. Irvin, Povich, Kremer, and Suarez, are fine options to get you through 162. Burnes, and Grayson, are our playoff options right now. We need a game 2/3 SP. The playoff RP core looks to be Kimbrel, Cano, Webb, Coloumbe(if healthy), and Perez. It would be nice to add two arms to the playoff RPs. -

I had thought Hell’s Bells was about trying to avoid your wife and family to watch O’s games. -

Westburg’s lack of lateral quickness has been pointed out there. Then again, everyone will look less quick when compared to Mateo. I think Mayo’s more of a 3B/1B with us. Position versatility. That’s not a knock on him at 3B, but that we like players in different positions to match up. Mayo is no different.
