Reading is really hard, people were comparing his windup and delivery to Fried, they are remarkably similar if you look at the damned overlay. Not one single person said the results were like Frieds.

That was a little tongue and cheek but the hyperbole was a little much last week even with the overlays..

I get that it was a weak draft but I want a higher ceiling out of 1-2.

And that's not hindsight talking.

Also Westburg signed for slot.

 I was trying to be difficult.

 

That said I wanted Martin so I got it wrong.

enormously high pitch count...terrible command...not a good recipe to beat the Yankees...

I am not watching... Is is terrible command, or are the Yankees just very selective? I think they lead MLB in walks.

It can improve.  I just have seen two pitchers in a row pitching scared.  Beside Judge and Soto, there isn’t anyone you have to be terribly careful with. 

I hope he was pitching scared…but it could be this is just his stone cold pitching.

    • Good stuff. The bullpen does do a good job of getting groundballs and Bradish, GRod and Burnes are not flyball heavy pitchers although obviously GROd and Bradish have only been out there so much since the start of 2023 and Burnes is just 2024.  Still, they have kept those numbers down.
    • I twisted something and included Cohen.  That's my bad.  And I agree with almost all of this.  My post was more on tying the uber wealth of current ownership to simply having the ability to spend to any level.  The Orioles ownership group is one of the most powerful in all of sports.  I think they will make the Orioles more profitable and I think those profits will be reinvested in a way previous ownership did not. I do not anticipate, but would wildly applaud, ownership funding talent/salary increases out of pocket.  Thanks for the well articulated response.
    • Or another drop-off. Which is more likely at 37?
    • I don’t think we have heard that at all. I believe Elias said that Mateo should be a full go for ST. If what you are saying is accurate, I would agree it’s not worth keeping him around. I just don’t think it’s accurate.
    • Mateo is going to llikely miss the first part of the year and then be limited for much of the year d/t his elbow injury.  I think he won't be able to do much more than DH the early part of the year.  Is he worth signing just for 2025.  Imo, if the O's bring him back, it should be for 2 years.  It could be that Mateo is the backup 1B to Mayo, don't laugh.
    • His statcast page is really good though. He could be a candidate for a bounce back and will likely be a relatively cheap signing. I don’t love the fit but I can see the justification for doing it.
    • Mathematically I'm sure they will get better just because they have been so bad against the pass so far this year I can't imagine it getting much worse. I'm not so sure they will take a step forward against the team that has scored the most points in the whole NFL next Sunday though.   😬 Our best defensive game so far was against Josh Allen and the Bills though so I guess anything is possible.  You would think we would be able to come up with some schemes to confuse a rookie QB.
