So that’s a wrap on Grayson’s regular season.  He went 7-4 and threw 122 major league innings at a 4.35 ERA, plus 41.1 AAA innings at a 1.98 ERA.  So, that’s 163.1 innings, plus whatever he throws in

That was a statement game from Grayson.  I’m not sure he’s arrived, but he’s on the train.

Growing pains are hard. But it sure looks like he has found his way back to being what he is supposed to be. That was quite an impressive outing.

I wonder what they did different to get him back on track. I see someone  like Manoah from the BlueJays or Taj Bradley from Tampa sent to the minors, the stints did not really help them.

During the FS1 broadcast last night, Verducci noted in a side-by-side that Grayson changed his starting position with his hands/glove (much lower now, waist height compared to upper chest height earlier).  Verducci posited that this had two fold effect (1) masking any sign of tipped pitches which he implied was issue early in season, and (2) actually improved velocity on FB.

to me, hitters still pick up on the change-up more so than I would expect for quality of stuff.  In terms of rest of pitches last night, FB velocity was great, just barely missing location wise and breaking ball was sharp aside from hanger to Grichuck.

No he isn’t. 

He's in the AAA rotation and based on Pipeline he's in the current top 4 pitching prospects in the Orioles organization. If you don't think he wants to do everything he can to try to earn himself a chance in the Majors, than that would just be ignorance talking.

I’m sure he’d like to. I was doubting that he’s well regarded.

Big game for Grayson today.  We need someone to restore order after last night’s chaos.  6 quality innings would be much appreciated. 

Ho hum.  I didn't see the game, but looking at the box score it looks like he wasn't too bad and was unlucky due to an error.  Did he deserve to get taken out so early or did Hyde maybe go to the bullpen too early (as he does sometimes in my opinion)?

His pitch count was in the 80's and he wasn't sharp. Velo dropped down to 94 a few times. Definitely appeared to be laboring. He could easily have been taken out after 4. Irvin got ready in the bottom of the 4th but Hyde stretched for a couple more batters. I have no problem with Hyde's decision.

He was at 89 pitches through 4.1 long innings. Did he deserve to be taken out?

I agreed with the decision.  The game was still close, and looked like it was about to get out of hand.  Grayson wasn’t at his sharpest today.  And Irvin has the ability to throw multiple innings.

Hyde knows exactly what he is doing with the pitchers.  Grayson was laboring.  Hyde wasn't going to let that go on.  Our post season will depend on three starters.  Hyde wants those three as physically and mentally sharp as possible.  

It's sad that we don't know who the 3 starters are.  Bradish of course.  Will Grayson get back on track?  Kremer even though he's just an average starter usually doesn't blow up.  Means is a wild card, but probably too much to ask coming back from injury.

I thought the entire team looked tired and worn out tonight....including Grayson.  They could use a day off and a night in their own bed.

 

Also you could see on Grayson's face when Urias let that ball go under his glove that he was completely pissed off and lost all focus.   Before that he was cruising.

That's what I mean when I say Grayson is a head case.  How many hits has that defense saved for Grayson?

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Hallas · Posted

      Am I crazy for thinking Burnes isn't going to sniff Cole's deal?  I'm thinking like 7/260-280.  I don't think he's going to sniff Cole's deal.  For starters i dont think hes as good a pitcher as Cole was at the time of his signing.  Also, the Yankees aren't going to be in the bidding so that leaves the Mets, Giants, Nats, Orioles as teams that can afford him.  The Sox could too, but they're on the fringe of contention and might opt to develop more with the Yankees and Orioles solidly ahead of them in division.  Only the Mets from that list really seem like teams that would go over 300m for a pitcher, but they will be pressed for money because of the luxury tax.

      Agree a strong RHP bullpen arm that misses bats would be good to add. Looking at Spotrac I don’t see who it would be. Dominguez could certainly be someone that could fill this role.

      It looks like I misread your post as being about last offseason instead of the 2017-2018 offseason.  My mistake, but does that in any way affect my overall point - you know the part that I made explicit and you left out of your response - that all the old, reflexive Angelosian nonsense no longer automatically applies? I'm unclear on what you're driving at, especially if I have to go back to the 2017-2018 offseason when Peter Angelos might still have been giving input on running the team.  I think it's a stretch to try to draw parallels to those days, or even the John Angelos years, to David Rubenstein potential as an owner.

      Irsay stealing the Colts in a midnight sneak away is in my top five depressing B-More moments, as well as the dreaded We Are Family Pirates in the ‘79 series. Otherwise, it’s a good bad list.

      I forgot the name of the movie, but Jimmy Fallon was playing a BoSox superfan (tough role for an NY kid) and it was during the era of the ‘curse’ (right at the end of it actually) — a kid he was coaching asked, “What have the Red Sox ever done for you?” His character didn’t have an answer. But it made me think. The movie was out during the 14-years of losing seasons. I asked myself the same question about whether a lifetime of fandom was worth it. For me, outside of my family - 15 generations or more on the Eastern Shore - the O’s are also part of my DNA.  Win, lose, lose horribly, lose ugly, bad ownership, they just can’t shake me. All that said, I totally understand the frustration. It will take me a little longer to heal from this ugly exit to 2024.

      In the market and $$$ for SP = Mets, Cubs, BOS, WAS and SFG (depending on Snell opt-out).  That’s enough chairs when music stops for Burnes and Fried to cash in, and still ample for second tier Eovaldi, Manea, Kikuchi, Flaherty.
