In the video, man does he fall off to 1st base side. Looks like a nasty reliever type, kinda like inverse of Coulombe.

That's the way Bob Gibson fell off the mound.

Yeah that’s pretty extreme fall off. I would imagine that has something to do with the walks. Doesn’t look fully in control.

Yeah, not crazy about those mechanics or lack of balance.  Nolan McLean looked better and Sproat looked even better previous in the series.  Plus, it sounded like Baumeister was only 92/93. 

P.S.  Sproat has bad walk numbers but looked really good when I saw him.

Yeah, I thought the velo was supposed to be higher at the time that he was drafted.

Baseball America says  sits 93 and touches 98.   Hopefully he can sit at least closer to 95 in time.

I feel like the reliever risk is high with this player. While he throws 4 pitches, it sounds like (from @Tony-OH's scouting) that he really pitches off a FB/SL combination. Command/Control is not great but the FB gets swings/misses. That's a profile for a reliever. What am I missing?

Way too early for me to get reliever vibes from him yet. My report was from one outing and he's only a few games into his professional career. Not a fan though of how he falls off the mound and the velocity so far this year has not been elite (92-94 from what I've seen).

The velo will pick up when the weather does. It’s a lot different pitching in the mid Atlantic in rainy April /May versus Florida in the dog days of summer with humidity. 

He’ll be alright. Looks good so far.

Pretty good effort from Baumeister tonight: 4.2 IP, 0 R, 4 H, 3 BB, 7 K’s.  43 of 72 pitches for strikes.  You’d like to see fewer walks/more strikes, but I’m glad to see 15.4 P/IP.

The nerve of you wanting to see more strikes!

    • I don’t consider a 4 o’clock game a night game. He also caught Wednesday night and Thursday day this week. Moral of the story is McCann will start 4 games in 7 days because he is Burnes preferred catcher.
    • It is absolutely possible. In 2022, the Mets gave a QO to Bassitt, Nikki, and DeGrom. The Red Sox gave a QO to Boegarts and Eovaldi. The Yankees gave a QO to Judge and Rizzo. The Dodgers gave a QO to Turner and Anderson. I know that it seems to be a foregone conclusion that Santander will not be on the team after this season, and while I generally agree that it is more probable than not that he will not be re-signed, I do think there is a non-zero chance that he will be retained. I think he is the most likely of Mullins, Hays, and himself to be retained, even if it is a small chance. The team has told us how they feel about his bat because he plays essentially everyday, and I have heard Kostka say that they value his clubhouse presence.
    • Santander won’t get a QO, and if he did, he would accept. His defense is declining and we have too many capable youngsters who should replace him effectively. But to your question, I don’t know if there’s a limit, but I doubt it.
    • O's will probably have to wait till July for a trade because there are so many more buyers than sellers.  I think teams like the Blue Jays, Rays Tigers and Mets are likely to be sellers but they are still in the race although not very good teams as constituted. 
    • No Scott. He’s way too undependable. We need someone who WON’T enter a game and walk folks like he’s promoting a healthy lifestyle. He’s been a lot bette4 this season, but he’s too undependable, and we already have too many of those. No Flaherty either. That’s like taking your GF back after she cheated on you.
    • The team's continued success has really put Elias on the spot IMO and I don't see a Flaherty type as an option anymore.  My money is on a sensible trade that comes at a price high enough that most of us here, including myself, won't like, but a premium comes with having bad luck and that's where the O's are at the moment.
    • I would be very surprised if every last one of the GM's Elias talks to about quality starting pitching doesn't start by asking about Westburg and the rest.  Again, I think it's a mistake to believe that the O's have a ton of leverage here.  They certainly have some, and Elias is smart and disciplined, but I don't see any bargains.  I especially don't see the luxury of acting like youth and multiple years of control is any kind of rigid starting point for the O's.
