I hope we see a generous helping of Strop in this game after the score is already out of reach.

Yeah. If they all say the same thing, it makes for boring tv.

Lets talk when he wins some rings. It was still an absolute steal though.

Evidently, the O's are looking into Ricky Nolasco, according to Buster Olney.

Just make Strop pitch the 6 or 7 innings that will be left over after Arrieta gets knocked out, and then we won't have to see either of them again...

For those of you wondering why this thread exists, read the thread about the Orioles developing starting pitching.

Even Burnett, for as bad as he was at the end of his contract, helped them win a world series.

There seems to be a stark contrast between the Gausman pitches on the road and how he pitches at home.

By all means ignore all the peripheral stats that support the fact that Cabrera was awful, and that Lee was the victim of no support.

Strop has to be the worst reliever in baseball. Send him down, and never recall him. What a pathetic, putrid display of incompetence.

With the loss of Leach, Reed, and Pollard, there was no reason (or need) to trade Boldin. The rest of it is fine, I guess.

They didn't develop a single pitcher who could put up league average numbers for a few years? I find that hard to believe.

When was Loewen ever a decent pitcher? The Bedard trade was great though, I'll say that much. Ditto for Uehara.
