That may be correct, but this is more than a ballpark issue.  He came over averaging 2.0 BB per 9 for his career.  This year he’s averaging 6.2 BB per 9.   He’s in a funk and really doesn’t have comma

Love the move, love the aggression. Who cares if you are a vet. Perform or get the hell off my team.  I am such a broken record to anyone I talk to about the O’s but I can’t get over how they fil

Caught this little blurb about Irvin in Roch's entry this morning.  If he can do this for 1-2 more starts is that enough to call him back up?

Left-hander Cole Irvin made his first start for Triple-A Norfolk since the Orioles optioned him, and he allowed two runs and seven hits with one walk and two strikeouts over seven innings against Rochester. He also hit a batter.

Irvin threw 99 pitches, 67 for strikes.

Sure, but it's going to depend on the needs of the rotation. Kremer put a pretty big dent in one way Irvin gets back here because Kremer was the guy struggling most. We don't really know what Bradish looks like this year, but we'll get an idea tonight.

I don't see anything in that stat line that screams we need this guy up.  Only two strikeouts over seven isn't encouraging.

Well he is striking out 9.2 guys per 9 innings for us so far at the MLB level.  ;)  I'll take the AAA line by comparison, heh.  

The really encouraging thing is the walks.   His walk rate was crazy elevated with us compared to his track record.  Only walking one in 7 is hopefully a good sign.

10 hits and 5 runs allowed in 5 IP for Cole Irvin against AAA Rochester. 

He was cruising early on but not giving him an excuse but he gave up 3 runs in the 5th on a 3 run homer.  That made the score 17-3 not sure how locked in you are when your pitching with a 17 run lead.  He might have been trying different things at that point to see how it worked in a blowout.

I get it but....if I had just spent the entirety of the last two seasons in the majors and I got sent down....I think I'd be doing my best to stay locked in. I'd also be worried about all the 0's the staff is putting up in my absence.

      Cowser’s  swing decisions are determined before the pitch is even thrown. And I’ve been saying this all year, and I even said this at the game. I go it’s too early to pinch it for him because his defense is too good but he is 100% going to strike out and that’s exactly what he did with bases loaded. He decides whether he is going to swing a pitch before even thrown This is why he swings at a thrown pretty close to his face . And To be fair,he  had a pretty good season doing that but obviously can be  easily exploited

      Cowser's progress was one of the more encouraging elements this season, especially on the defensive side. I was already crediting him with being Some Kind of Good major leaguer a post back. Between his and Adley's standout bad performances on the HBP and 2-0 count, I give Cowser more of a grace.     Sure he had predetermined intent to swing, but I think the follow through was some raw instinct as hand bones fractured. Adley not swinging was the lowlight how incapacitated he was.    I believe he commands the strike zone, but to feel so low you can't pull the trigger in that spot...sheesh.

      How does Povich fit into your 2025 plans?

      By jabba72 · Posted

      I believe Elias plans to bring in two more SP's, the quality isnt what im sure about. But no question he'll want to replace Burnes. Which is why I didnt comment in this thread yet because Povich might not have a spot open at the beginning of the year.

      Elias: It's on me

      By bobmc · Posted

      So a “Pollyanna” then like me, @wildcard and others (joking of course) 😇 I’m in your camp but really wonder if Elias/Hyde and Co. can truly“flip the script” as @Just Regular alludes.

      So thats because the extra space in the OF allows for more balls to fall in? If so, I don't really see an issue if its providing offense in a different way.

      I'm neutral on it. I don't like how the old dimensions played like a wiffle ball field. Both teams have to play on it and the O's do have two good OF's so in that sense it helps us. RHH will probably hate it so very few would ever sign in Baltimore unless they thought the O's were in World Series contention. If they put it in the middle ground then the dimensions become like every other park and Im not sure I want that. At least Camden Yards plays different.

      I agree with this.  It was a completely idiotic take to criticize the fans.  And Russo on MLB Network did as well.  Did those guys watch this team at all this year? They were under .500 for the last 88 games of the season.....the worst team in the AL East.  These were the home series they played over the last three months: Chicago Cubs (swept and outscored 21-2), Yankees (lost 2 of 3 and needed two Yankee errors to walk off the last one), San Diego (lost 2 of 3), Toronto (won 3 of 4), Washington (split 1 of 2), Boston (split 2 of 4), Houston (split 2 of 4), White Sox (won 2 of 3 but lost last one 8-1), Tampa (lost 2 of 3), San Fran (lost 2 of 3), Detroit (lost 2 of 3). What is that, 15 - 20 in their last 35 home games?  And then they top it off by losing to the Royals 1 - 0 in the first game?  So fans are supposed to be excited and encouraged by that stretch of baseball?   You want people to show up to games, play like the Padres. Don't have your prized prospects go bust, don't have your stars fall off a cliff, and learn how to play fundamental baseball instead of obsessing about each swing's potential exit velocity.
