Host Connor Newcomb is joined by Jeff Ellis, the Host of Locked On Indians, to break down the Baltimore Orioles trade with Cleveland to acquire RHP Adam Plutko over the weekend. Connor and Jeff talk:
-Plutko's 2019 season and why it was the best of his career
-How he gets guys out without having big strikeout numbers
-Why Plutko will always be limited in what he can do on the mound
-Why Cleveland decided to move on from him
But first, Connor breaks down the corresponding move to DFA Yolmer Sánchez and talks about who could be the Orioles starting 2B this season among Ramón Urias, Pat Valaika, Rio Ruiz and others. Plus, Connor discusses the Orioles starting rotation beginning to take shape and where Plutko and Keegan Akin will fit in down the line.
