I laughed when I heard the announcement that Kyle Bradish was getting his big-league call-up. For two weeks since John Means went down, Orioles fans had been told that prospect promotion would not be determined by what’s happening with the Major League roster. Even, like, a day ago all Elias would say about Bradish was, “Certainly, he and other people have put themselves on the radar for helping the staff this year.” Alrighty, then! But anyway, who cares about the nuances of GM-ese—it was thrilling to see Bradish getting the call.
This was my first good, long look at Kyle Bradish.
