Michael Griffin - RotoBaller

513 articles

I'm a writer living in New York with my wife, son and two crazy cats. I went to my first baseball game at the age of four and have been a fan since.

Articles

Kevin Gausman Throws Four-Inning Sim Game

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kevin Gausman threw 65 pitches in a four-inning simulated game. He's just keeping sharp in between spring training starts, especially with the team having a lot of minor leaguers in camp, though those numbers are slowly being culled each week.


Miguel Castro Goes Three Innings In Spring Debut

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Miguel Castro, who had knee tendinitis and back pain, had a pretty successful first actual start of the Spring. He'd pitched a "B" game before. Castro gave up a run and struck out one while walking two. With Gabriel Ynoa now out for at least two weeks with his shin splints, […]


Chris Davis Will Resume Baseball Activities Next Week

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis (forearm) will be back on the field next week. Manager Buck Showalter told the media that Davis, who has been dealing with a tight forearm, will resume "baseball action" soon. Here's hoping that Davis will be able to stay on the field for the rest of spring training. Pedro Alvarez has […]


Thomas Hickey Nets Lone Goal For Islanders In 2-1 Shootout Loss To Oilers

New York Islanders defenseman Thomas Hickey was the sole offensive bright spot on Thursday, scoring his fourth goal of the season in the third period to briefly put New York ahead. Alas, Connor McDavid was not to be stopped, tying the game a little later. Hickey has OK numbers with 16 assists and a 15 […]


Gabriel Ynoa Scratched From Saturday Start

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Gabriel Ynoa got the MRI results back on his shin splints and they weren't good. He has a "stress reaction" in those shins, and Ynoa was scratched from his start on Saturday. Pitcher Jayson Aquino is going to get the spot start instead. Ynoa was already on thin ice due to poor […]


Scott Kazmir Goes Three Innings Against Astros

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Scott Kazmir, who is trying to make the team as a dark-horse candidate, had a fairly decent outing against Houston. While he didn't face the likes of Carlos Correa, Jose Altuve or George Springer, he did have some tough bats in Jake Marisnick, Alex Bregman and Evan Gattis. Kazmir gave up two runs […]


Luiz Gohara Getting Set For First Outing Of Spring

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Luiz Gohara, who has been recovering from groin issues, feels like he's all recovered. The lefty could take the mound as early as Sunday, whether it would be as the starter or later in the game is still up in the air. Gohara has some ground to make up, but through […]


Gabriel Ynoa Battling Shin Splints

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Gabriel Ynoa, who may become a relief pitcher, is having trouble with shin splints. He's getting an MRI but is still slated to pitch on Saturday. He's only bothered by it when he runs. Hopefully, teams won't bunt on him much when he's on the mound. Ynoa is going to have to make […]


Chris Tillman Goes Three Innings In Sim Game

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Chris Tillman is still getting back up to speed after signing a contract right at the beginning of Spring Training. The right-hander threw 61 pitches in three innings in a simulated game. All went well, apparently, according to various members of the Baltimore media.


Mark Trumbo Has Quad Injury

Baltimore Orioles designated hitter Mark Trumbo has soreness in his right quadriceps, and manager Buck Showalter said Trumbo could miss three to seven days. This is a precautionary measure since Showalter also said that if this had occurred during the regular season, Trumbo would have played through it. If it turns out to be more, Pedro […]


Orioles Will Take It Slow With Chris Davis

Surely Baltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis (forearm) wants to be out there playing more often during spring training. The team wants to make sure that he's able to play during the regular season. Spring training stats don't count, after all. Davis has said that his tight forearm, which has received a clean MRI bill, […]


Mike Wright Goes Three Innings Against Tampa Bay

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Mike Wright tried to solidify his chances of sticking with the team as a No. 5 starter on Wednesday. His results: Three innings, three strikeouts and a run on two hits, were likely solid enough to keep him on manager Buck Showalter's radar.


Zach Britton Supposedly Ahead Of Schedule

Well, it looks like Baltimore Orioles closer Zach Britton may be making more progress in his rehab from his Achilles injury than anticipated. How much more? Well, that's the unknown part. Manager Buck Showalter is keeping mum on that part. The team must be excited knowing that they may get their closer back sooner than […]


Dylan Bundy Has Four-Inning Sim Start

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Dylan Bundy went four innings and threw 61 pitches in a simulated start. The team hopes that while his 20.77 spring ERA is not an indicator of how the 25-year-old righty is really doing, they do want him to feel like he can get major league hitters out. Hopefully, this outing […]


Chris Davis Will Not Play Until After Friday

Manager Buck Showalter and the front office want to take it cautious with Baltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis, who has been battling forearm tightness all spring. He's not going to be in the lineup in any shape, whether it be as the designated hitter or at first base, until after Friday. Showalter told the […]


Mike Soroka Impresses With Outing Against Jays

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Mike Soroka is not even old enough to legally buy a drink - he's turning 21 in August. That hasn't stopped him from turning heads in Braves camp. The 20-year-old went two innings, fanning two while not giving up any runs. His ERA is 1.80 and manager Brian Snitker told the […]


Danny Santana Continues Blistering Hot Spring Against Toronto

After Atlanta Braves outfielder Danny Santana went 4-for-4 against the Pirates on Monday, he had another perfect day on Tuesday, albeit with just one at-bat. Santana is making a strong case to get a bench spot when the team breaks camp. As always, take spring training results with a grain of salt. If he's still […]


Ronald Acuna Shakes Off Monday's Plunking To Play Tuesday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna had left Monday's game after being hit by a pitch. It didn't affect him, since he played Tuesday against the Blue Jays and went 1-for-3. Acuna is really making it difficult for the Atlanta front office to decide to send him to the minor leagues. He's an exciting player and […]


Andrew Cashner Throws Three Innings In Simulated Game

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Andrew Cashner is making his way toward spring training action. He threw three innings of a simulated game, and Roch Kobatko of MASN said that it went well. Cashner, who signed late, is hoping to make the No. 5 rotation spot, but it's a crowded field right now. Manager Buck Showalter […]


Sean Newcomb Gives Up Run In Three Innings Of Work

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Sean Newcomb went three innings on Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. Newcomb, who is slated to be No. 4 in the rotation, gave up one hit - a homer to Teoscar Hernandez. Newcomb is having a middling Spring Training with a 4.50 ERA, but he's likely going to keep his […]


Hunter Harvey Gives Up Run In Two Innings Against Twins

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Hunter Harvey went two innings against the Minnesota Twins. He struck out one and walked two while giving up a run on a solo homer to Jorge Polanco. He's not in the mix for the starting rotation now and will likely go to the minors for more seasoning. Keep an eye […]


Austin Hays Will DH On Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays (lat) will be the designated hitter for Wednesday's game against the Rays. He's slowly making his way back from a lat injury. Manager Buck Showalter told the media that he hopes that Hays will start playing the outfield again after Wednesday's tilt.


Jaroslav Halak Lets In Four Goals As Isles Can't Stop Skid

New York Islanders goalie Jaroslav Halak has had a rough 2018 season with an 18-23 record. His 3.23 goals-against average is well above his career mark of 2.49. Halak is way down in the bottom of the rankings there. The Islanders have lost seven in a row, including Monday night's overtime loss to the lowly […]


Mathew Barzal Gets Two Assists In Islanders Loss To Canucks

New York Islanders center Mathew Barzal added to his assist total on Monday night in Vancouver. He had two of them to bring the tally up to 51. Sadly, it wasn't enough, as he ultimately saw his team fall in overtime to the Canucks. Right now, Barzal is sixth in the league in that category. […]


John Tavares Records Goal, Assist In OT Loss To Canucks

New York Islanders center John Tavares did what he could to help his team beat Vancouver, a team in the bottom of their own division, on Monday. He had both a goal and an assist, but it wasn't enough as the Islanders lost in overtime, 4-3. Tavares now has 31 goals, which puts him in […]


Mike Wright Slated To Start Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Mike Wright, who is on the bubble to get the No. 5 slot in the rotation, will be going up against the Tampa Bay Rays. It's going to be a tough choice for manager Buck Showalter to choose between Wright, Nestor Cortes and Miguel Castro. All Wright can do is go out […]


Chris Davis Says Forearm Is Feeling Better

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis said that his troublesome forearm is feeling better. He got a clean result from his MRI, which should ease the Tommy John surgery fears. Davis said that it was a day-to-day thing for him. Davis should be ready for Opening Day as he looks to bounce back from a disappointing […]


Luiz Gohara Inching Closer To Game Action For Braves

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Luiz Gohara, who seems to have a slight edge over some other pitchers vying for the No. 5 rotation spot, is making his way back from a left groin strain. He threw live batting practice and is slated to throw a couple more of those before getting into game action. Even […]


Braves Trade For Ryan Schimpf

The Atlanta Braves traded with the Tampa Bay Rays for second baseman Ryan Schimpf in exchange for a player to be named later. What's so intriguing about a soon-to-be 30-year-old with only two years of major league experience? Well, in those two years, he's amassed 34 homers in 527 plate appearances. Yes, he's only hit .195 […]


Austin Hays Has Not Resumed Throwing After Cortisone Shot

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays (lat) will have to wait a while longer before being able to take the field again. He had a shot to take care of a bothersome lat muscle and while he's able to swing a bat, throwing is still not on the agenda. That will happen "later this week," according to […]
