Here are all my thoughts on the Feldman acquisition: http://baltimorespor...grade-rotation/ 

 

Thoughts and comments are welcome.

Well done, Luke. You're a very good writer. 

[LanceRinker]

Good stuff Luke. 

 

I actually think this deal will benefit the Orioles more than people think it will. Simply stabilizing the rotation now, instead of waiting until August, will have a major benefit IMO.

2013 Cubs: 7-6, 3.46 era, 3.89 xFIP, 91 ip, 79 hits, 10 hr's, 25 bb's, 67 k's, .656 OPS against, 50.7% GB%

I'm excited.

In his O's debut, Feldman went 6 innings, allowing 2  runs, 6 hits, 1 hr, 0 bb's, with 6 k's.

Pretty solid. Love the 0 walks.

Feldman's style of pitching reminded me of MGon.  Tonight was impressive especially consider the equipment issues he had.   I still fell we could regret the trade down the road but Feldman has the look of a solid professional pitcher.

Nice start from Feldman today as he went 7.1 ip, allowing 5 hits, 3 er, 1 bb, with 7 k's to gain the win.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Another good outing for Feldman last night, going 8 innings, allowing 5 hits, 2 er, 2 bb's, 3 k's.

 

The acquisition is helping a lot.

[NewMarketSean]

Just think, he is replacing the likes of Arrieta, Garcia and Gausman -- all who pretty much sucked as SP's while they were here. That's huge.

Disappointing outing last night, with Feldman not having much of anything.

I mentioned in the game thread that Feldman at times reminds me of Steve Traschel.

 

He is better than the older Trashel we had but is similar to the Traschel who pitched with the Cubs.

[NewMarketSean]

Just think, he is replacing the likes of Arrieta, Garcia and Gausman -- all who pretty much sucked as SP's while they were here. That's huge.

...and has been much better so far.

That sucks.

MASN: Is Feldman pitching his way into the O's future?
http://www.masnsport...les-future.html
 

[Matt]

He has 11 starts out of 14  with 3er or fewer. If he was on the team to start the season and pitched like that they would have won most of his games. I wouldn't mind seeing him back next year. They need someone better than Tillman too though.
