I believe I saw Friday earlier.

Hyde encouraged:

Way better than Means' starts.  I would guess the O's are looking for him to put up multiple effective 80 pitch/5 inning starts.

Seems like it.  Have any velo numbers?

He topped out there.  Average a little lower.  

[Satyr3206]

He's ready. Get Irvin to the bullpen quick.

[Spy Fox]

Not counting any chickens til he’s on the mound in the big leagues (and even then I’ll be nervous), but his recovery has been truly best case scenario so far.

I'm not certain you can tell from a stat line. Did anyone see him pitch?

Hard to not be encouraged by that stat line. Believe I heard he was sitting mid 90s. The big thing is again going to be, how does he feel today and tomorrow.

That’s 94-95 on a very cold night.

I’d bring him up. Only so many bullets in an arm. So is it Suarez or Irvin that goes?  It’s hard to argue against Suarez, but MR/SU man might be just as valuable as a 5th SP on this team. Irvin can be a 5th SP. I don’t know if he can be the big time setup man that Suarez looks like he could easily step into. 

The bullpen has to get 15 outs a game. SU man is actually probably more important than 5th SP. Especially when we have Irvin and Means for 5th SP.
