Unless Bradish goes to the IL.  I hope that isn’t the case but Hyde was doing some dancing about it in his pregame press conference.

I’d be surprised if it’s not Bradish to the IL.  Hoping it’s just a tired arm but the fact that they’re being so coy raises alarms for me.

Hopefully, it’s one of Vespi, Tate, or Akin, that gets optioned. Akin could use a de-load himself, but do we trust Vespi enough has a back end arm?  He’s been great the past two seasons as a shuttle arm. Holding LHH to a .430 OPS.

All 3 of these guys could be needed as inning eaters today

For pitchers, is it a 10 day IL or longer? If it's just 10 day, then IL Bradish. He misses two starts that go to Povich. That's not that big of a deal. 

For pitchers it’s 15 day.

Vespi was just optioned, so no IL for Bradish at this point.

Vespi optioned 

Hopefully positive news for Bradish right? Would have to think he would’ve been the corresponding move if it was a serious situation.

This is good news in my opinion. If they really thought Bradish was done or needed to go on the IL, they would have used this opportunity to keep the extra "longish guy" in the pen. Hopefully this means whatever is bothering Bradish they are hoping with a little rest they can get him back on the mound. This may just be that kind of year where they continually have to nurse him through this season.

Yea..wouldn’t make sense to say, we will just get Vespi right back up as an injury replacement because you may need him today.

I also never bought into Bradish being hurt. Sounds like this was a planned thing.

I still think it would have been crazy not to IL Bradish immediately if he had a torn UCL. So this makes me feel a bit better. There’s still clearly an issue that they aren’t telling us about though.

Yea, maybe he has a tired arm and needs days off.  They have already said they want to give him a few extra days rest.

    • You just can’t win with an offense this bad. It was an overreaction a month ago when they were getting called embarrassing or pathetic after a bad game. It legitimately might be an understatement at this point.  They have scored 4 runs or less in 19 out of their last 24 games (and 11 of their last 12 games) against teams that aren’t the Rockies or the White Sox. In those 19 games, they have scored 44 total runs (2.32 per game). In two of those games, they scored exactly 5 runs. In another, they scored 10 runs and lost. In another, they had 2 runs going into the 8th. Again, anyone complaining about this offense is underselling it at this point. In total, they have 80 runs in those 24 games (3.33 per game). In their last 8 games overall (including the White Sox), they have scored 15 runs. This offense is completely broken.
    • This team does not hit the fastball well, that's not good.
    • Plenty of teams limp into the playoffs and then make a deep run. This team has enough talent to do it, I just want to see Mayo and Kjerstad finally given a shot to play every day (put Kjerstad in RF, Santander at 1B, Mayo the full time DH), and move away from struggling/low ceiling vets like O'Hearn, Eloy, Rivera, and Slater.  Mayo and Kjerstad playing regularly and Westburg making it back for the playoffs could transform the lineup. I think Hyde is a terrible manager who can't write out a good lineup to save his life, but this offense has been so bad for so long that I think even he's capable of making those changes.  If Webb, Coloumbe, and Grayson can all make it back healthy, they'll also make a difference. 
    • Another Hyde thread 🙄
    • How am I scapegoating him? He hasn't played well for a very long time. I'm just saying give Mayo a legit shot.
    • Am looking forward to the season being over.  Yankees are taking full advantage of the O’s ineptitude - as they should.   Team is so inept offensively and does not seem fixable.  Bad combo of too many players still trying to figure things out. Have no idea what to expect over the next 2 weeks,  but currently they are unwatchable and an overall joyless bunch.   Need new dugout leadership that can help this team unlock its potential,  Hyde is no longer the answer and I think he knows it.
