Givens and Tate will not pitch again and not pitch at all respectively for the Orioles this season -- which is unfortunate. I'm surprised they just havent announced the TJ surgery and get it over with so the rehab can begin.

Zimmermann or Vespi had to go, glad it was Zimmermann after his performance last night. Hopefully Vallimont will stick. There HAS to be some reinforcements in AAA that can't be any worse than some of the non Bautista, Cano, Columbe's we've been throwing out there.

The O's need some relievers that can at least pitch in a blowout loss.  I hope Akin has to prove himself in the minors before he's brought back.  The O's need to do the same with Voth.  The O's bullpen can't have multiple pitchers who can't get anyone out.

This answers the question about Givens.  He will not with the O's until Sept if then. 

Valimont will not last a week in my guess.   He is just the guy that was going to start at Norfolk today.

He was put on the IL on June 1st.  Sixty days from then would leave him eligible in August if he's healthy.

iF Givens really has to have TJ surgery then the Orioles will not pick up his option.Have not heard about any mention of this.

The TJ surgery mention was most likely in relation to Tate, not Givens.

I've feared that was a possibility since hearing he had a sore flexor tendon in February and that he first got it in November.   At that point I kind of mentally made the assumption he wasn't going to pitch for us this year, then they got my hopes back up when he started doing rehab assignments.

But now he's apparently seeking a second opinion and we know what that usually means.

Well Elias did say that Givens will always be an Oriole when he was traded.  So there’s that.

      Trade for trout while his is stock is low. Bit of a gamble, but he's a leader that needs a change of scenery. He is our RF/ DH middle of the order RH bat to replace santander  If we can keep him healthy, he might be the veteran presence we need. We have the salary space for his contract

      Worst Orioles Loss of My Lifetime

      By SilverRocket · Posted

      I'm rooting against the Yankees this weekend. Hasn't gotten close to that point for me. The 2016 WC game was the worst because of the Britton situation. The 2014 Royals series was awful. I don't know that this loss was even as bad as last year's vs the Rangers where it felt like we could go all the way. This was just a wild card team vs a wild card team that could go either way, and some bounces didn't go our way and young players couldn't handle the pressure. It's best-of-3, it happens.

      Worst Orioles Loss of My Lifetime

      By gtman55 · Posted

      I'm older than most here. The pain of being a sports fan in Baltimore in 1969 make this year's playoff sweep seem trivial. All three of our local pro teams had great regular seasons. The Colts were a sure thing to beat the upstart Jets in Super Bowl III. No way the mighty Orioles would lose to the Mets in the World Series. And I thought for sure the Bullets might beat the Knicks in the NBA semifinals. Talk about long lasting pain ...

      Adley shares tough health admission

      By gtman55 · Posted

      Come on man, that's a crock. I've been as frustrated as anyone watching Adley's approach at the plate and his uppercut swing. But to say he's the kind of guy that makes excuses is way out of line. I have no doubt Adley will work on getting his body, swing and mind right in the off-season.

      The Savannah Bananas are coming to OPACY

      By NashLumber · Posted

      I was given three free tix to see them in Durham in '23. They oversold the tix, ie. the seats were not assigned, first come / first serve,  the line to get in was ridiculously long, and we had to stand in the miserable heat and humidity of a NC summer.  Worst baseball in person experience of my life. Just goofy from the little I got to see in the three person deep standing room only crowd. We left after three innings or whatever they call it in their version of the game. Way too loud, too. Just too much BS going on. It was like the baseball version of drinking WAY too much gin and fruit punch and the wild colors give you the bed spins.
