O's Acquire Thyago Vieira

[sportsfan8703]

3.76 ERA overall in 26.1 IP. It was 2.25 ERA 5 days ago. We tried to fix him last September, but left him off the playoff roster. The Mets still paid him. Fuji too. 

Man, sometimes you can ride one pitch, his sinker, to being dominant. See Jorge Lopez, Ryan Brazier, and Robert Stephenson.

I'm not sure the front office will want to bring in a guy who just lost it like he did yesterday.    I understand that playing for a loser can be frustrating, but his actions yesterday were very unprofessional.

Shoutout to Elias at the 2022 deadline for grabbing Cade Povich, Yennier Cano, Chayce McDermott, Seth Johnson, Juan Rojas, and Juan Nunez for two players that basically stopped being major league baseball players the moment they left Baltimore.

I don’t suppose we need a separate appreciation thread for the DFA today?

It would just be everyone appreciating that he's gone and not appreciating that the DFA didn't happen 15 minutes after his O's debut game ended, so really not much point I suppose.  Catharsis maybe.

I’m already trying to block out the answer.

Honestly, I'm glad he's gone. Sure, the guy throws hard, but all of his statcast data shows a lack of movement and we know he has a lack of not just command, but control.

He I remember waivers right… seems like he made it all the way through the AL then half of the NL. That’s part of the equation on some of these waiver moves. If all fails, we could be the team to pass them through waivers to AAA to continue working with them, and have them as depth.
