McDermott is like a box of chocolates, last 3 starts.  7 IP, 3 H, 12 K, 1 ER,  0.1 IP, 2 H, 3 BB, 0 K, 4 ER,

6.2 IP, 1 H, 7 K, 0 ER.

I'm wondering if even when McDermott's stuff is on, ML's will work the count against him and prevent him from even completing 5 IP.

I think this is why a lot of people have him in the pen for this year at least.

Saw McDermott had another very short outing on Friday 

1 IP 4 Runs, 4 Hits, 1 K

Anything to make of this? Or maybe a planned short outing?

It’s both somewhat concerning (getting hit around) but also planned short outing.  Roch had blogged about this during AS break that several MiLB pitchers would be on planned shorter outings for a bit.

In the event you don't see him pitching at AAA Norfolk.

Very interesting. Most of the Taxi squad pitchers have typically been promoted to the 26-man shortly thereafter. The Orioles have a TBA for the starter on Wednesday. Looks like that could be his debut.

Showing him off for a trade possibility?

Yup, sure looks like it.  Let him get a little cozy with the team up until his first MLB start.

He’d probably be facing a tougher lineup against the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp than he’d see in Miami.

[LGOrioles]

FanGraphs has him ranked 83rd overall on their new prospect update today.

Chayce McDermorr (26 on 7/24) is on the clock.  
 

As soon as the trade deadline passes, he needs to go to the pen.

Make sure prospective trade partners know that not only can you strike guys out, but you can pitch to contact.  

After the game:  Not that much contact!

Yup. He needs to pick one breaking ball and only throw that with the FB. See if that helps his command.

they really need to start grooming Chayce for a relief role now in hopes of him coming up and being serviceable to good later in the season.  Dude is not getting any younger and his control issues would play better in the bullpen

I agree atleast for this the remainder of the season.  I’d give him every chance next spring to be a starter though.

10k night for Chayce this evening. Gave up 2R on 5H 3BB & 1 HR.  65% strikes.
