I think it's a common problem when translating a spoken interview into text/tweets. How often have we seen in writing that someone was upset about something (e.g. Matt Holliday regarding Jackson not b

What an outing!   7 innings of no-hit ball, 11 K’s.  You could tell he was tiring at the end, but he was determined to get through 7 IP.   Ace stuff today.

Nothing like fearing a guy is potentially out for the season, to coming back a week later and having a start like that.

Stud. 

At any point, his season could be done. We all know that and I get why people were worried.

That said, nothing that happened his last start or anything coming from the team leading up this start should have caused the overreaction it did. They were clear they wanted to give him more rest and now he slates Atl and then the Yankees and he will get an extra day for the Yankees as well.

So not only did he get extra rest this time around, he will get it vs NY as well, which was probably part of the plan too.

Tyler Wells and Alek Manoah and John Means and Cristian Javier and Jose Urquidy is a good sized meal for one month for the injury gods.

Juan Soto here I guess would be to delicious-est imaginable thing on the dessert cart.    I hope they are full.

Yesterday leapfrogged Bradish past Skubal on the Last 1 Calendar Year ERA leaderboard - Bradish now 2.28 in 150 innings (and that TEX playoff gem).

He's the only 30 IP MLB SP at zero HR yielded on the season.

2021 Corbin Burnes, just 2 of 28 starts on 4 Days rest, is the Venus de Milo of what a good pitching lab and rest science can help get out of a ~$500k college starter.

The juicy bits are if Kyle Bradish and Grayson Rodriguez's takes are more appreciation or frustration.    It'll be a helpful proof of concept if they can blow away a much leaned on Luis Gil later this season.

Grayson has ace stuff. But lacks ace consistency and command.

He has some more development/maturity to go in order to be considered an ace. But he most certainly has the potential.

Let's see. The way he's pitching today with that easy gas, which I haven't really seen this season, makes me feel like that's more likely to be true. Up until today he hasn't pitched like an ace...3.48 FIP and 113 ERA+ isn't ace level.

Pulled after 5 innings.  You could tell something was bothering him.  FB was 99 in the first inning, 93-94 by the 5th.  Shook his arm a few times after pitches.  Threw two pitches to the backstop.

That 99 honestly concerned me a little right away because it was so much higher than his usual. 

Fingers crossed.

Hated seeing the 99 honestly. Felt the same as you. Too hyped up, dangerous.

It hurts even more so that we don't have Means as well.  I mean Means was not as good as Bradish but he was a capable pitcher.  Plus Wells for pen.  And now let's hope Danny isn't out for the season.  Elias has some tough decisions ahead of him.

      Samuel Basallo 2024

      By Frobby · Posted

      I do have questions about Basallo’s progress as a catcher.   By my calculations, the Baysox have allowed 5.68 runs/game when Basallo has caught (25 games), 4.11 runs/game when others have caught.  We know that stats like CERA have a lot of noise in them, especially in a small sample, but 1.57 runs/game is a huge margin.  He’s also committed 4 errors and 4 passed balls in 25 games at C, and has caught only 22% of runners (8/36).   By comparison, Silas Ardoin has started 31 games at C and has only 2 errors and 2 PB, and has caught 40% of runners (16/40).    These are all superficial numbers, but they raise questions in my mind and I’d need someone who watches Basallo a lot and knows how to evaluate catchers to tell me how he rates behind the dish.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      This is a very simple yet incredibly accurate post regarding the two of JH and Gunnar. I think some of our folks have blinders due to the 1:1 draft position of JH and simply cannot let go of the idea of him being this all-world superstar SS because he was drafted as a SS. Wasn't Bryce Harper drafted 1:1 .... as a catcher and got moved to the outfield? Guys get drafted high as (insert whatever position) and are given the opportunity to play themselves off of that position year in and year out. I firmly believe that this is true with JH. That approach of 'well, he's probably best suited at a different spot but it only increases the strength of the organization if he can mature into a viable SS option so let's run out that groundball' is 100% what I believe that they did with him. I don't know how anyone who has spent time in instruction, scouting, playing above a HS level would not see the flaws in his defensive game. It's not only the arm and I agree that his elbow issues are likely from trying to increase his arm strength. I've given my opinion on what I've seen of him with my own eyes (more than 30 games worth) and I will continue to describe his SS prospects as you could stick him there (a la Manny 2018 and he won't kill you but he's never going to be the best defensive SS option. For an org like the O's who have demonstrated the importance of defense over and over and over again, they're just not going to stick weaker defender into a more important defensive role.. especially given that they have a current player there who may be the current best overall player in the game and has stated repeatedly that he views himself as a SS, wants to play SS and basically someone is going to have kill him to take it from him.  I share your belief that JH is going to fine and will figure out how to hit at the ML level in due time. He's going to be a very productive player for a long time but barring injury too Gunnar, I just do not see him EVER getting reps as a SS in Baltimore without some form of a Manny-type scenario where back in 2018 they slid him over to SS, knowing full-well that they were going to trade him that year and simply wanted to 1. appease Manny and 2. market him as a SS at the deadline, which they did. I stand by my original statement 18 months or so back.. JH's profile is best suited as a 2B but I do not rule out a move to the OF.

      Mateo is the more useful player so my preference would be the team trades Urias to open up a spot for Mayo. Mateo plays multiple positions pretty well and can pinch run. Trade Urias for a low level MILB player if that's the best Elias can get for him. I'd love to pick up a potential bullpen arm, but I don't think Urias getting you a decent pitcher in return.

      I sort of don't get Elias's plan

      By LookitsPuck · Posted

      I do fault Elias for not having a backup plan for Means. And relying on Tyler Wells as any kind of starter wasn't a great idea. Montgomery would have been great insurance. Bradish the O's found out about in February. Here were the available options at that date (mid Feb): Chase Anderson - uhh, no Brandon Woodruff - hurt at time of signing Brad Keller - career 4.50 (give or take) ERA guy with the FIP to match Domingo German - domestic violence, stinks in the minors with the Pirates right now Michael Lorenzen - would have been a good option, tbh Jordan Montgomery - would have been a good option Lorenzen and Montgomery would have been solid options/insurance.  Also, I disagree 100% on Povich. Definitely not a 5th starter *at best*.

      CHW GM Getz sure drives a hard bargain , smh . I guess Elias has wait and see what team(s) are offering for Crochet, then decide whether make last ditch offer

      By Say O! · Posted

      Over the offseason, was there any pitching transactions better than ME acquisition of Burnes (#1 starter) and Kimbrel (closer)?  I guess I am confused at any “miscalculations” of the market when your GM is able to bring in from outside the organization the two most valuable pitching positions on the roster.

      The thing is, they were never collapses after being good.  It was always a collapse from mediocrity to awfulness.  Didn't the O's in the "Dark Ages" have the official goal of reaching .500.  I can 't imagine that Elias has ever had a goal for the O's to be an average team.
