What Will The Orioles Get If They Sign Pitcher Yovani Gallardo
Tom Grieve is a former MLB player and General Manager who is now a broadcaster for the Texas Rangers.
Tom joined Ed and Steve to talk about what Orioles fans should expect if the team signs pitcher Yovani Gallardo.
Tom started off by giving his take on Yovani Gallardo saying "he's a tough guy to evaluate, the bottom line is you look at overall results and the overall results were good for us." As for what the Orioles get if they sign Gallardo Tom said "he's not a guy who's going to pitch deep into ball games...he'll throw 102 pitches in 5 or 6 and 1/3 innings, he's tough to hit."
As for if he makes the Orioles better or not Tom said "yes he would make you better...I think Rangers would be happy to get a draft pick for him, he makes your rotation better and if nothing else he provides depth, probably a 4th or 5th starter."
Tom finished up by talking about if the Orioles should be concerned offering 3 years to Gallardo and if his arm can hold up for that length of time.
