PT TOMORROW: AL East — Applying 2020 foresight to East pitching staffs

Baltimore Orioles

Mychal Givens (RHP, BAL) is closing the season pitching extremely well: eight straight scoreless innings, three hits, no walks, 12 strikeouts. But performance may only enhance the likelihood that someone will make the Orioles an offer they can’t refuse in the off-season.

While Givens would likely close if he remains in Baltimore, the Orioles may have to move on down the line in the case of a trade.

One possible answer that has emerged in the second half of the season is Hunter Harvey (RHP, BAL), who has a 10/4 K/BB in his first 5.1 major league innings, with an August 31 home run by Hunter Dozier (3B, KC) accounting for the only run he has yielded. (Hunter-on-Hunter crime -- did someone say "Dick Cheney"?)

After years...
