Nothing we talk about on here is “necessary”.

Today is also the deadline that Means' 30 day rehab stint ended.  So they had to make a move today.

Real injury or just trying to keep Ramirez/Baumann around 🤔 Means probably heading to bullpen.

Hopefully it’s minor.  Hate hearing shoulder issues.

They had to say something.     This really isn't messing around playing with the Dodgers type moves parking your Lamborghinis intermittently, and hopefully buying time to hoard your assets and/or gain a view who else breaks in the next 15 days.

I will guess MASN Orioles won't be publishing Grayson reaction for us to guess from tone and body language.

If he’s not having an MRI or the MRI was done a no structural damage are the two things I’d like to know.

No chance they don't do an MRI.  Why wouldn't you?

Is Tate coming back?  Bradish and Mrans to rotation.  Suarez to bullpen?

I don't see Tate coming back anytime soon with the bullpen crunch as it is right now. I do imagine Bradish will push Suarez to the bullpen which means someone else has to go. I imagine it will be to DFA Ramirez.

With Grayson on the IL, the rotation should be Burnes, Bradish, Means, Kremer, Irvin (not in that order, just the names) once Bradish is activated.

Hindsight.  Is it unnecessary to speculate who goes when Bradish is reinstated?   How about when Perez came back?  Should we not speculate and just wait until the moves are made?   That’s like saying don’t guess the lineup, it will be listed in 3 hours.

Yes, its unnecessary.  Is it something people like to do?  Yes.  Do I care if they do it?  No.  Is it necessary?  Absolutely not.

About 15 years ago I started a thread suggesting they buy an MRI machine and install it in the trainers room.  I thought they should give them an exam every month or so even if they were feeling nothing wrong.

They all break at one point or other.  

#@$%. Maybe Suarez should stay as a starter then. Move means to the BP as a long reliever. Also, having depth is super nice.

That's a good point and hopefully all this is. They need Grayson to be strong in September and October and may just look at this as a perfect opportunity to shut him down for a bit without losing a pitcher due to DFA. I didn't see anything in Grayson's last start to suggest he was hurt, so maybe a little soreness, which probably every pitcher feels after starts, is a good reason to be able to load manage him for the year. 

Saying that, he did throw a 163.1 innings last year between Baltimore and Norfolk and was very strong last year into October, where he was too hyped up (sitting 100 MPH) vs worn down.

My thoughts as well. Would make sense that they want to give him a few week break; allows them to kick the roster crunch dilemma down the road for a few weeks and gives the young stud a couple weeks off to protect him for the length of the season. If he's on the IL for more than 15 days, I'll be surprised.

The training room is nowhere big enough to add in an MRI machine. Not to mention all of the logistics involved in maintenance, staff, etc. 

If the Orioles or any major league team felt a MRI every month would show potential injuries before they happen, I'd imagine many more would routinely happen. Pain is almost always the first indicator of a problem. The body is set up that way.

I mentioned his lack of K's in his last start and wondered if he was hurting...I knew it was something...

Necessary? Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine? No, but I do it anyway because it's sterile and I like the taste.

      This offensive style is not sustainable

      By Hallas · Posted

      This might explain the Orioles clear change in approach.  If you see a pitch you like on the first pitch take a big fat rip at it.  League average SLG is .550 and the O's are at .700.  So there's some analytical wisdom behind going up and hacking.

      By Hallas · Posted

      I can't find the article right now, but I recall reading a while back that there was some evidence that hitting tons of home runs correlates with beating your pythagorean expectation.  That's one of the reasons why the early-mid 2010s Orioles teams with prime Chris Davis frequently beat our expected win totals.  Since we're at or close to the stabilization rate for a lot of HR/power numbers I don't think the conclusion here is that our style of play is unsustainable.   Also, offense around the league is in the absolute gutter, so the runs we're able to score are pretty meaningful.

      Hays and Santander -- nicked up?

      Then again, a game with all three of them homering would be sweet! (Bonus question: which outcome is more likely?)

      I appreciate that he’s not flipping coins, and I know he has a reason for what he does, but a lot of the time, his reasoning is objectively bad. And that’s not really a source of debate. Just like Buck had a reason for saving Britton…but it was a really bad reason. any opinion, by definition, is debatable. A individual decision can be objectively good or bad whether or not it actually succeeds. Overall, most of the time we can give him the benefit of the doubt, but there have been lots of glaring bad decisions. I’ve mentioned Ned Yost. Even the folks at Royals review thought he was an idiot, but he had a splendid team that worked really well for a couple seasons.

      He's young and has a very boisterous personality. This funk literally started the day he was crowned player of the week. He's trying too hard and pressing to get back to / repeat that performance.  Another learning experience. Hopefully he locks in soon and levels that mentality out. I also think Jackson being sent down has probably made him feel pressured as well. They seemed to be pretty close. The culmination of those things just screams trying too hard to me

      Okay, I am going to lay into Cowser a bit here.  In the majors, a runner on 3B with less than two outs is advanced slightly more than half the time.  A runner on 2B with nobody out also is advanced a little more than half the time.   Cowser has had the most opportunities with a runner on 3B and less than two out of anyone on the team, and he’s 4 for 14 (28.6%) in those situations.  He’s also had the most opportunities with a runner on second and nobody out, and has advanced the runner only 3 times in 9 opportunities.   In RISP situations, he’s hitting .222/.250/.417.   In Late & Close situations, he’s hitting .095/.130/.238.  In high leverage situations, he’s hitting .048/.046/.095.    Honestly, right now he’s about the last guy I want to see up in an important situation.  And that’s ridiculous for a guy who’s hitting .250/.331/.500 overall.  He’s got to get his head screwed on straight when it matters most.
