Orioles' GM Mike Elias on Grayson Rodriguez, “I hope he makes the opening-day rotation.” Hey, Mike, that makes two of us. Elias Sports Bureau asked of Mike Elias, "Are you our father?" Grayson Rodriguez is the biggest pitfall for fantasy baseball rookies posts. I've been here already. I thought he'd be up last year. Was very disappointing to not see Grayson Rodriguez. I'd love to lay it all at the feet of the Orioles. "Hey, what are you wearing, Lake Placid Summit Boy's Adjustables?" That's me seeing the cheapskates that the Orioles are fitted in. (I googled cheap ice skates, if those aren't cheapskates, I don't know. Leave me alone.) Any hoo! It wasn't all their fault, Grayson had a severe lat strain from about May until September. So, yeah, that sucked. At least he didn't win Minor League Pitcher of the Year three years in a row. Yes, he won it the previous two years, which is such a jizzoke. The Orioles are cheap eh-eff. This kind of bee ess really needs to end, so I can stop spelling out cuss words. There should be zero incentive for a MLB team to keep a prospect in the minors if he's ready. Grayson Rodriguez prolly could've had a season as good as Alek Manoah last year, if he stayed healthy and was actually in the majors, but he's throwing darts in the minors. So, what can we expect from Grayson Rodriguez for 2023 fantasy baseball?
