For conversation sake let’s assume they stay on 6 man rotation with no injuries and rainouts. 

Grod would pitch 

Mon - Sept 4 @LAA

Mon -Sept 11 STL 

Sun -Sept 17 TB

Sat - Sept 23 @CLE

Sat -Sept 30 BOS

 

Perhaps they can in a position to skip him vs CLE and then maybe a short outing vs BOS? Maybe 18 innings first 3 games and 4 vs Boston. That’s 156. 

Hopefully they don’t go down to the last week of the season to clinch the division.  As soon as that happens GRod, Bradish, and Kremer will not pitch until the playoffs.  Voth, John Means, and they shuttle guys from AAA.

Skipping a start all together could actually be more dangerous.  There is a sweet spot between chronic load and acute load.  He has been on a consistent workload for quite a while now.  To deviate from that significantly and then come back and go hard would put him at risk.  He needs to stay the course, or slightly change his chronic load slightly ie. missing one game by going every 7 days vs. 6.  If he misses one start and has ~12 days in between that could put him in the danger zone.

If they clinch the duvision, they’re going to sit around for several days while the other teams play.  So, I doubt they‘ll skip the starters much at the end.   More likely they’ll limit their innings.  But in any event, it’s unlikely they clinch until sometime in that final week, assuming they do win the division.

Roughly something like that.

2.84 ERA since coming back. Averaging almost exactly 6 IP per start. BB rate is 2.6. k rate is 7.8. Only given up 2 homers and 33 hits. BABIP a little on the lucky side after it was on the unlucky side in his first stint. Tends to even out..overall he’s still more on the unlucky side.

Few more starts like that and he’ll take some votes away from Gunnar. 

If he can take the vote away from Gunnar it would mean some historic pitching in September.  We should all pray for that.

    • I don’t consider a 4 o’clock game a night game. He also caught Wednesday night and Thursday day this week. Moral of the story is McCann will start 4 games in 7 days because he is Burnes preferred catcher.
    • It is absolutely possible. In 2022, the Mets gave a QO to Bassitt, Nikki, and DeGrom. The Red Sox gave a QO to Boegarts and Eovaldi. The Yankees gave a QO to Judge and Rizzo. The Dodgers gave a QO to Turner and Anderson. I know that it seems to be a foregone conclusion that Santander will not be on the team after this season, and while I generally agree that it is more probable than not that he will not be re-signed, I do think there is a non-zero chance that he will be retained. I think he is the most likely of Mullins, Hays, and himself to be retained, even if it is a small chance. The team has told us how they feel about his bat because he plays essentially everyday, and I have heard Kostka say that they value his clubhouse presence.
    • Santander won’t get a QO, and if he did, he would accept. His defense is declining and we have too many capable youngsters who should replace him effectively. But to your question, I don’t know if there’s a limit, but I doubt it.
    • O's will probably have to wait till July for a trade because there are so many more buyers than sellers.  I think teams like the Blue Jays, Rays Tigers and Mets are likely to be sellers but they are still in the race although not very good teams as constituted. 
    • No Scott. He’s way too undependable. We need someone who WON’T enter a game and walk folks like he’s promoting a healthy lifestyle. He’s been a lot bette4 this season, but he’s too undependable, and we already have too many of those. No Flaherty either. That’s like taking your GF back after she cheated on you.
    • The team's continued success has really put Elias on the spot IMO and I don't see a Flaherty type as an option anymore.  My money is on a sensible trade that comes at a price high enough that most of us here, including myself, won't like, but a premium comes with having bad luck and that's where the O's are at the moment.
    • I would be very surprised if every last one of the GM's Elias talks to about quality starting pitching doesn't start by asking about Westburg and the rest.  Again, I think it's a mistake to believe that the O's have a ton of leverage here.  They certainly have some, and Elias is smart and disciplined, but I don't see any bargains.  I especially don't see the luxury of acting like youth and multiple years of control is any kind of rigid starting point for the O's.
