The Orioles had not had such a streak in a single season since 1989, but they had an overlap streak from 1995-96.  It's the 18th such streak in team history.  The other 17 are below.  If you were a fan in 1974, you almost ceratinly remember the 5 straight shutouts amid a 10-game win streak that rocketed the Orioles back into the race vs the Red Sox and Yankees from 8 back on the morning of 8/29/74.  Even if you weren't a fan then, Palmer brings it up all the time.

Perhaps. But I think more likely is that go 6 man rotation (with Burnes staying on 5 day rest routine).  It could potentially help manage workloads and injuries for Grayson, Bradish, Means.

Great points Ken. Love the depth of the starters this year as well.  Very few implosions.

side note: loved your draft day content.  Very entertaining and informative.  Go birds

There goes that streak.    You’re like the Kevin Brown of OH hangout.   😃

As soon as Brown says Westburg hasn’t made an error in 62 games he makes a bad throw.  As soon as he says Rutschman has the best chase rate in baseball he swings at two pitches way out of the zone.   As soon as Brown says this Oriole reliever hasn’t walked anyone in two weeks I say “Shut up, Kevin!”

Even Povich we are now around the calendar point Bradish made his MLB debut in 2022.

A second ago everyone was saying that Ellis didn’t upgrade the rotation enough and now some are saying there is no place for Grayson when he returns.  So which is it?

There is always room for Grayson.  He moves someone into the pen no matter what.

Hyde might need to have an uncomfortable discussion with Kremer that he is being moved to the pen soon.

I like when the a team has a rotation full of guys pitching at an above average level, competing with each other.  Other guys are competing to get in the rotation.  I don't think this has happened for the O's since the early 80's.  Can anyone think of a time since then when the O's had a rotation full of at least average starters pitching well?  Maybe mid 90's?

It could still be both. I’ve been in the “let’s see what we got” camp and it’s working out better than even I expected. Irvin is definitely exceeding expectations, great to see Means and Bradish back. 

That said, if Bradish and Means stay healthy, the rotation looks great. If there are more health issues, then the folks who forewarned that the O’s need to add another starter for depth will have a point.

I’m happy with the potential traffic jam we currently have with the starters.

I don't think there so much griping about upgrading the rotation after the Burnes trade got done.  But to the extent there was it was because few people felt Bradish and Means would give us anything this season.

Really most of the criticism was about not having done enough to upgrade the bullpen, especially thinking Wells would be in the rotation.

There was a fair amount. A lot of posts said Burnes was just a replacement for Bradish who was destined for TJS, that we needed to sign Montgomery, and when we didn’t there was quite a bit of frustration. I also wanted Montgomery, but we seem to be doing just fine without him.

      I  regret to hear news on Wells and Means setbacks.  I like Means because Orioles drafted and developed him .  He will be free agent this fall , should Orioles tender him or let him walk ? As for Wells, he has the stuff but durability is his drawback . Every season Orioles slotted him in starting rotation, then he gets put on IL this season, 2023 and 2022 seasons also .  When Wells returns next season  , they should slot him in bullpen permanently  , JMO

      Yes and at one point was a higher rated prospect in their system than Aaron Judge. It took awhile with the bat but he was always an amazing athlete with the ability for defensive wizardry.

      I put this ridiculousness in the game recap, but I think it belongs here as well.  Using AI you can really make some crazy stuff. 😂 https://suno.com/song/8f21dd9e-af4e-4284-9f23-c566260ca6ce

      Draft Targets 2 Months Out

      By Jammer7 · Posted

      I was listening to MLB Prospects podcast last week. They talked about Gillen, and mentioned a lot about how he may be the best high school hitter. However, it’s a tough call where he’ll go because of a weak arm. They said the arm was injured, a right labrum, and his arm strength is not back after two years. So, probably wasn’t going to be a SS anyway when said and done due to size, maybe a 2B/LF or CF profile due to the weak arm and 60 speed. He was projected to maybe become the top high school player in the draft as a sophomore, but injured the shoulder and had some other injuries that have held him back. It is going to be interesting to see where Elias goes with picks 22 and 32. I would like to see Gillen there, but I think he’ll be gone. Kellon Lindsey is interesting, and maybe Billy Amick, along with one of the previous college hitters you mentioned will sneak through. Lindsey is rising fast.

      A good friend of mine coaches college baseball.  He’s studied and dedicated his career to understanding how humans move. Not all humans move the same way.  An incredible talent could potentially be taught to move against his body’s preference and fail.  New wave progressive coaches understand how various body types work and the nuance to teach/coach them effectively.
