Garrett has really been throwing the ball well in AAA. He pitches around 93-4 but can touch 96 with a nice splitter. I can see him getting a shot. He's earned it.

I saw him getting a little higher I believe. I thought I saw some 97s recently.

Certainly could have. I only pulled up his statcast info on a few games this past week when I thought he could be inline for a promotion.

Here are all the Norfolk pitchers...FIP likes Bazardo/Vespi a little better.   Garrett's sterling ERA helped by big Strand rate.

Also just looking at that as a whole....boy does everybody walk 10%+ of hitters down there.

After Yennier though, anyone they give a shot...who knows what to expect anymore?

Guessing Garrett will be for a day or two. Need a bulk guy to replace Voth.

Why only a day or two?   What P do you expect us to bring up longterm?   Or are you implying you think we'll drop to 12 Ps and have a 14th position player after a day or two?

We dropped briefly to 12 Ps a few weeks ago but I don't think that is sustainable the way Hyde burns through his bullpen.

We have lot of off days coming up though.  5 straight then off Monday then 2 games and off again Thursday so should have a chance to rest pen next week.

That would be great if Garrett can be a reliever Hyde can rely on as a bridge to Cano/Bautista. There really isn't any one reliever that can be trusted in that role besides any pitcher who has a hot hand at the moment.

      12 Questions for the Offseason

      By Warehouse · Posted

      On #1: the question is whether all of Mayo, Kjerstad, Cowser, and Holliday have everyday roles or if are some platooned or held back in Norfolk or traded? If they all play everyday, there’s not really a meaty role to offer to a new bat. In the various post-mortems, this seems to be one of the biggest points of differences among posters.  Some want no logjams while others want one or more proven MOO professional hitters and don’t want to rely on Holliday or Mayo. My view is in the middle of the spectrum. I think at least one of Cowser or Mullins needs to sit vs. LHP, so we need a lefty masher capable of playing left field at Camden.  I think we may consider trading Mounty to make room for Mayo.

      12 Questions for the Offseason

      I find #8 to be an interesting one. On the one hand, McCann seems well-liked, he brings some toughness and veteran presence, and he actually had his best offensive season since 2020. At 35, you can probably have him for a 1 year deal if you want. And Basallo isn't really that close to coming up and catching just yet. He's a deep 2nd half kind of callup if you need him. And it's not like the free agent backup catcher market is much better than McCann. On the other hand, I have a sour taste in my mouth from game 1 where he couldn't make contact with men on base. Adley certainly didn't get any better under his wise tutelage. And maybe there are guys out there who surpass McCann defensively and bring a different wrinkle to the clubhouse. So I wouldn't be mad about a change.

      How does Povich fit into your 2025 plans?

      By RVAOsFan · Posted

      This is my thought process regarding the pitching staff next season, ideally we resign Burnes but if not another TOR like Snell or Fried need to be signed this offseason.  Eflin GRod and Kremer are a really solid 2,3,4 the 5 spot is open to competition but realistically there will probably be some injuries or fatigue that require all of these guys contributing.

      12 Questions for the Offseason

      By Warehouse · Posted

      1. Where on the spectrum should Elias anchor between “let the kids play” vs. “sign proven bats”? 2. How do we get a right-handed bat to come here given Walltimore? 3. How many years do you think we should be willing to commit to a starting pitcher?  Where do you expect Elias to fall? 4. Between vets, rookies, and prospects, who can we trade / should we trade / do we trade for pitching or a bat? 5. What budget will ownership give to Elias? To what extent will he max out on his constraint? 6. What coaching and front-office personnel changes should/will we make? What about infrastructure or changes to org philosophies? 7. Whom, if anyone, should we try to extend, considering their agent and what they will likely demand financially?  8. For backup catcher, do we re-up McCann or go in a different direction? 9. Does it make sense to sign a blue chip reliever given the spotty track record of those signings (e.g., of 25 relievers signing for > $3MM last year, 2 had WAR of at least 0.5 in both fWAR and bWAR)? 10. Does Elias make any outside-the-box moves  (e.g., convert Akin to SP, sign a FA infielder, move JH to CF, find the next Suarez)?

      Hope to take my kids but it will depend on the ticket prices.  I couldn’t believe how expensive the tickets were when they were in DC
