Baltimore wins 9-2. The Dudgers are up 1-0 over the PhilOlies in the 5th, they had a long weather delay.

I just read yesterday that Minor may be on some kind of innings limit in the second half, that is the only thing that gives me pause. He is one of my favorites and would love to see it if we know for sure he can stand a workload all the way through the playoffs.

Minor didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 7-6 extra-innings loss to the Astros, allowing four runs on seven hits and three walks over five innings while striking out seven.

ANALYSIS
After posting very impressive numbers in June (3-0, 1.70 ERA, 0.97 WHIP in five starts), Minor has stumbled in July, failing to pitch into the sixth inning in his starts on either side of the All-Star break. The 31-year-old southpaw still has a sharp 2.73 ERA and 121:44 K:BB through 122 innings on the year, but after throwing 157 IP in 2018 -- his first time as a regular member of a rotation since 2014 -- there could be some workload concerns with Minor in the second half. He'll look to get back on track Friday in a road rematch with Houston.

Todd Raleigh’s kid, Cal, (who is from my hometown) recently got promoted to AA. He leads the entire Mariner’s farm system in HR with 22. I don’t know him, but I know a lot of his family. Good kid.

He’s not on an innings limit, he’s a 31 yr old journeyman. The concerns are him losing effectiveness and by effectiveness I mean the clock striking midnight on his smoke and mirror show.

Makes sense if he’s the guy you want filling the open spot to keep him on normal rest and push the guys carrying the staff back a day for some rest.

But also could be
