Little better but still too many baserunners.

[BobPhelan]

Think I saw he didn't allow a baserunner after the second inning. Getting better each time out so far at AA.

5 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 2 BBs, 8 Ks.

From Luke Siler:

Hell of a 5th inning for Dean Kremer, he walked the first batter after the catcher dropped two would-be strike 3 foul tips.

Proceeded to strike out the next 3 batters swinging on just 12 pitches.

The rust is coming off.

Kremer has earned a promotion to AAA, no? 

 

8-0 over his last 10 starts, with a 1.93 era in those 56 innings.

You could argue he earned it before this season even began.

 

Elias' approach is very clearly to take it super slow with promotions.  I wouldn't expect to see Kremer reach AAA this season.  I also wouldn't expect anyone at AAA to get a September callup unless they've already been with the big club this season.

I could maybe see Mountcastle, but I think you're right. Nice to see Elias has a good plan and he's sticking to it. It's been a while since I could say that about the Orioles minor league system.
