Holliday slowing down of late. Still very good numbers overall at Aberdeen but last 2 weeks has been a bit more of a struggle.

Who

30 year old with a 1.59 ERA in AAA. 27 Ks in 22 innings. Good fastball slider combo.

Tongue in cheek a bit. Anyone over Voth right now. And Akin can go too as far as Im concerned

He has 2 brief stints in the majors so far, and the numbers are ugly but relievers are hard to predict,  Maybe he can turn things around here.  

Take a look at Evan Phillips.  He struggled here but is one of the best relievers on a very good Dodgers team.

Reed Garrett has an opt out this week, might get a look in the major league bullpen.

Garrett is up, good call. Voth to IL with elbow discomfort, Koloszvary DFAd.

[TwentyThirtyFive]

With the opt out it made sense to give him a look with as bad as Voth has looked

Phillips was the first person I thought of as well especially with how this organization has proven to be capable of improving players.

I knew it was coming but didn’t know what the timing would be so didn’t want to state it as a fact.

Found footage of Voth's injury occurring...

Garretts numbers over 24.2 ML innings are really bad. Didnt strike anyone out in addition to being clobbered. Its fine considering how bad Voth looks but they need some real solutions. Ik pretty confident Garrett aint it over any real amount of innings


The other arm Phelan mentioned yesrerday has a much more intriguing profile. Charles

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Why Denoyer off the 40 Bob. Know the numbers arent good this year but there were other options to be removed. Does his stuff kinda suck

Garrett's stats are ridiculous. 37 hits and 21 BB in 24.2 MLB innings. Seems like in the majors he's had no clue at all where it's going. Not even close to that bad in the minors and he's been good this year, I'll wait and see, maybe they changed something.

Stuff took a step back this year and control took a BIG step back. Hopefully he sticks around and figures it out.

[TwentyThirtyFive]

SSS but Kjerstad off to a great start at AAA. Would be crazy if he beats a Westburg or Cowser to Baltimore.

[TwentyThirtyFive]

GRod had another good outing. Pretty obvious he can beat AAA hitters. Hope they are working on changes that can make him more effective against MLB hitters

[CantonJester]

Connolly posted a piece a couple hours ago that covers Rodriguez's improvement. 

[BaltBird 24]

Rodriguez has very little left to prove at AAA, but the O's aren't in a position for him to take his beatings at the ML level every 5th day.

Cade Povich tonight: 7 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 13 K

[BobPhelan]

Also Mayo is 2-3 with a double and a HR. He’s quietly having a breakout season.
