He's having a nice season, but a sub-4 ERA is no longer anything to write home about considering the depressed offensive environment we are in.

Making 25+ starts is

Who in the O's rotation will break 25?

What does this have to do with the Os?

[Matt Bennett]

He's the same guy. He'll regress a little. 

I wanted 2 rotation additions that were both better than Kyle Gibson. We only made 1. Here we are.

Nothing directly.  But it's a "Hey, wouldn't this look good in our rotation right now without Means and perhaps Bradish soon," post.

Yea I guess…of course that ignores the idea that Gibson wanted to go to St Louis to be close to home, so even if the Os wanted to keep him (and rightfully they did not), he likely doesn’t stay here.

If Bradish goes down then I agree, though all 5 of our starters right now are better than Gibson.

It's in the MLB section.

This is the part where we talk about how the O's scouting and development is total trash and that all Gibson had to do was go to a halfway decent org and he's a solid contributor.

Oh, wait, I fell asleep there for a while. Is it still 2016?

Wait is this an attack on my post earlier this week, because I said no such thing. This is a gross mis-interpretation of my discussion post.

Besides poster's like Webbrick, who is trashing the organization like its 2016? I'll wait.

It also doesn't guarantee that he'd have the same stats here. 

I liked Gibson a lot, great clubhouse guy and pitched some great games last year but I didn't necessarily want him back, either.

3.69 is the new 5 era. Admitting that I'm paying closer attention to the entire league and not just the Orioles because sports books went live in NC a few months ago. But, every night I'm looking at pitcher matchups and the sheer volume of guys every single day up and down the league that are at 3 era or less into June is insane.

I hope that others here don't think that was my intention. I did ask for it to be merged, where it would have been treated as mere O's trivia, which would have been fine with me.
