I wish MLB didn't make you declare your roster. I mean how awesome would it be in the playoffs.  The lights go out.  The whistle plays. Jim Ross as a guest announcer.  "BY GOD!  THAT FELIX B

Felix is starting to throw. This is a good sign that maybe he can be close to full strength to start 2025.

The ALCS is scheduled for 10/14.  Could Bautista be on that roster if we make it?  

I guess anything is possible but bringing back a high leverage RP in the ALCS after not pitching in over a year seems a little dicey.

How does it work with him being on IL, as far as being on roster before the Sept 01 cutoff? Like say they did think he could be back, is he safe on the IL until he is taken off even in September?

I believe the rules are pretty lax on adding people. Existing IL stints are one exception to being on the roster by 9/1. Also injuries to your current roster are another exception I think.

Either way, I find it hard to believe Bautista will be available for the playoffs, but crazier things have happened I guess.

You just have to be on 40 man or the 60 day il.

How many rehab game appearances does a reliever really need?  5?  If he's already going to be throwing off of a mound for his typical rehab, then maybe they let that happen and see what happens.  Keep in mind, they're going to say he's officially out until he's not.  Why start the expectations?  

The biggest thing will be when does he start throwing off of the mound?

People need to give up this dream. It’s been very clearly stated, if I recall, that Felix is not coming back this year. They are not going to risk this dude by pitching him in the playoffs after he hasn’t pitched all year.

Especially in Felix’s case. I don’t think his injury was an accident per say.

when you go back and watch the outing where he injured it you can see he’s trying to throw 120mph. He’s and easy 100MPH guy when he’s not overthrowing. 
 

id bring him back next spring.

Yeah, Mike Elias himself has already said Felix is not pitching this year.

How much non-throwing training is he able to do?  I'm assuming he can do full cardio work.  Can he lift weights?  I'm not sure what restrictions and the timeline these guys have during recovery?

He’s on a throwing program…we see YouTube clips of him.

      And btw, I’m not saying you try to field a team that is only made of players 25 years old or younger…you need some vets…but get good ones. If you are going to block these kids, who are really talented, block them with players that are actual difference makers.    I know they were hamstrung by Angelos and that hurt obviously but you could have done more with what you had imo.

      Can't really argue with any of this.

      Is Norby going to be the 2020s Steve Finley?

      This is what I’m talking about though.    The Orioles are acting weird imo. Yes, winning matters and changes how you operate but this is a team that has done nothing but try to build from within and pat themselves on the back for how well they are developing but then they turn around and don’t use the guys you developed.    You block them with guys like Frazier, Hicks or Jimenez or whoever else over the last 1-3 years. And we aren’t blocking them with good players. We are blocking them with over the hill vets who don’t provide much value. Thats what I find odd. Would Cowser be even better had you just played him last year?  Would Kjerstad be further along if he had been given better chances?  Would you have dealt Norby and/or Stowers if you played them?     It’s really frustrating to me. It’s like they went all in with tanking/rebuilding for 1-2 years too long but then when it comes time for that pay off, they don’t fully follow through. Again, I know winning changed things but really, winning last year should have always been the plan, so they should not have been caught off guard.

      Orioles attendance 2024

      By LookitsPuck · Posted

      Basically, the only big driver is winning and, to a much lesser extent, investment. Basically, if investment creates more winning, the fans will come. Rubenstein needs to make a splash. Right now, we've just seen him throw hats around and slap T Rowe Price everywhere he can. The rubber meets the road this offseason. If the O's putter out and have an early exit in the playoffs, are season ticket sales going to skyrocket? I don't think so. Let's look at what happened the last time the O's started winning. In 2011, they stunk and bottomed out at around 1.75m fans In 2012, they surprised everybody and not only had a winning season for the first time in forever, but they made the playoffs, too. Attendance went up to 2.1m In 2013, on the heels of a playoff appearance and apparently renewed interest in the team that doesn't suck perpetually, attendance went up even though they missed the playoffs at 2.35m fans In 2014, the O's won the division, but coming off a playoff-less year in 2013, attendance only went up 100k fans from 2.35m to 2.46m Now, 2015 was an aberration, IMHO. About the only time I'll ever say that crime perception impacted attendance was 2015 due to the Freddie Gray protests. Attendance dropped to around 2.3m from 2.46m. Now, it could be because of the protests, but it also could be that the team was mediocre. They didn't have a winning season, and only won 81 games. Attendance dropped again 2016, even though they made the playoffs, but they won 89 games and lost in the WC game. From then on, it's pretty obvious. They kept losing and losing spectacularly. COVID, etc.  Anyways, I don't see a world which the team exceeds 2.5m fans/year. The Nats coming to town really destroyed the upside. Even if Rubenstein starts spending money and the team makes major upgrades to the stadium experience...the ceiling is probably around the 2.5m fans/year number. Which, let's be frank, would be averaging nearly 31k fans/game. Just win. BTW, I wrote an article on this and did some analysis on whether winning, the homicide rate, and/or spending has an impact on attendance and, well: https://stephenpauladams.substack.com/p/orioles-attendance-is-up The main takeaway is winning matters, spending has little correlation, and the homicide rate has a very weak correlation.  The Rubenstein era will be interesting since this is a fresh slate and you don't have the fan apathy because of Angelos/constant losing.

      Or maybe just given regular playing time instead of getting two hits and getting benched the next day.

      Candidates for O’s MiL Pitcher of the Year

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      I disagree.  @Frobby just listed 8 pitchers and that doesn't include Morfe, and Reilly that we got at the trade deadline.  We're never going to have that high end high school pitching prospect phenom, but Morfe might be close.  I think are pitching is a little underrated.
