Who goes when Kremer comes up?

[Three Run Homer]

I'm guessing Kremer returns to the starting rotation this week.  This will require a roster move and perhaps a move to the rotation.

I hope and expect that Irvin goes to the bullpen and I predict that Vespi will be shuttled back to Norfolk.  What do you think?

Probably although Vespi is running out of times he can be sent down.

Ya Irvin can’t continue to start at this point.

Krook for the roster spot and Irvin to the bullpen.

Edit: Nevermind Krook is here for Burnes being on the Paternity List.

I got it mixed up to probably Vespi even with him getting close to his limit on how many time he can be sent down in a season.

Was really hoping Irvin would be able to hang in the rotation I wanted Suárez to the bullpen but Irvin in struggling. Heck maybe he is pitching hurt and he goes on the IL

If Irvin is pitching hurt , he should have reported it. But if he’s healthy, back to the bullpen he goes

He looks like same guy from start of last year.  He isn’t wild but has no command and can’t get the ball in on right handers to inside corner.  He is either yanking it way inside and not a competitive pitch or leaves it out in middle third to get hit hard.  He just has no command to place his pitches where he needs them on the black and off edges.

Funny, reading this post in the sidebar under the thread title, I assumed you were talking about Kremer. I dunno, maybe the shoe fits him too. Anyone heard otherwise lately?

Looking at Kremer's rehab starts results haven't exactly filled me with a sense of relief that he will be starting O's games again soon.  Any eye witnesses to make me think otherwise?

It's a tough question because Irvin's recent performance has been horrible, so he is the starter most deserving of losing his spot.

But Suarez, IMO, could be a really effective reliever, moreso than Irvin, and i would love to see him get the opportunity to prove that.

There's an argument to be made either way.

Irvin’s next start is scheduled for @ Oakland. As of right now, we’d be scheduled to have the back half of the rotation for the Yankees series right before the break. I could see us tinkering with the rotation so that we have Burnes and Grayson at least going vs the Yankees. 

I could see us going with a 6 man rotation after the ASG. Especially if we were to make a trade for Scherzer.

I don't see how a team with several starting pitchers who don't often go deep into games, a manager who has a quick hook, and a so-so bullpen that relies a lot on matchups and short relief stints can affors to reduce the number of bullpen arms by using a six-man rotation.
