A Look at Some Former O's and How They're Faring

It's always interesting to see how these guys do after they leave the organization.

Here are some selected players and their stats through yesterday:

(A tip of the cap to Jeff Zrebiec on the idea.)


Kris Benson: (ARIZONA 0-1, 3.00 ERA, 6 IP, 6 H, 2 ER

Russ Ortiz: (LA DODGERS) 0-1, 10.29 ERA, 7 IP, 10 H, 8 ER

Rodrigo Lopez: (ARIZONA) 1-0, 3.50 ERA, 18 IP, 24 H, 7 ER. (Looks pretty good, but he has a dreadful 1.667 WHIP)

Brian Burres: (PITTSBURGH) 0-1, 9.00 ERA, 8 IP, 11 H, 8 ER, 1.875 WHIP (Actually not far off his career number of 1.685!)

Luis Hernandez: (NY METS MINOR LEAGUE AFFIL.) 46 AB, .304 AVG, 1 HR, 1 SB, 3 CS, 5 BB, 5K

That's just some recent players who popped out to me - here are some others from Jeff's posting earlier today, focusing on the "memorable" O's of 2009:

Amazing some of these guys still have careers ...

  1. Russ Ortiz popped out to you? The guy pitched 20 games for us 4 years ago and had a sterling 8+ ERA, and he popped out to you as a former Oriole?

    What are you smoking?

  2. I was always intrigued by how a guy that could perform so well could just drop off the map like that. And I thought that Mazzone had the potential to bring him back.

    I think Mazzone's comments when he left Baltimore were the most indicative of all of how poorly this franchise is run. If you're not familiar with what I mean, I'll find them for you.
