PrintTampa Bay Rays at Baltimore Orioles, Apr 2, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
Matt Garza, RH (5-7, 3.69/1.54) v. Daniel Cabrera, RH (9-18, 5.55/1.54)
I have no problem saying that Garza was my favorite pitching prospect in all of baseball when he was with the Twins, and him being part of the Big Three in Tampa Bay scares the bejesus out of me. Those guys could dominate the division for a long, long time. And I think Garza has the goods to be THE ace of the bunch.
This is Cabrera's fifth full year as part of the Orioles rotation. He's just a total pain, and I expect nothing anymore. I don't expect him to ever be any good. Why bother? His only consistency is being a big letdown. If you want to be like our own Dr. Enloe and continue to go insane during every Cabrera start, be my guest.
How about an over/under on walks for Cabrera starts? We'll do five -- make it 5.5.
RAYS STARTING LINEUP
- Akinori Iwamura, 2B
- Carl Crawford, LF
- Carlos Pena, 1B
- B.J. Upton, CF

- Carlos Pena hit .316/.446/.667 with six homers against the Birds in 2007.
- Veteran Rays reliever Troy Percival historically stinks against the O's: 5.86 ERA and 1.51 WHIP in 43 career innings against Baltimore.

I should just change my username.
I'll say 4 BBs for the home opener. 6 Ks. and Danny boy notches the first Orioles W of the year.
What happened to the whole "box score and game time appears in the game thread" thing? Is there a bug or something?
I'm on board with you Z
This is Dannys year..........to kill somebody with a wild pitch.

BP's PECOTA
predicts Danny will lead O's pitchers in VORP this season. And that the O's will have the wost pitching in the majors.
Ahhh, fun.
well
Yeah. But PECOTA isn't geared toward predicting breakout seasons for anyone. It's geared for being sensible.
I say under
TB has historically helped out O's pitching.
"When you are in with the Lord there's just one reward, and they'd just as soon make it come true." -REK
Under
These dudes are going to get smoked by the heat. Except for Carlos Pena, who'll be going deep tonight.
is the line 5.5 or 4.5?
I would say he pitches 7 innings and walks 5. Gotta do that fraction bit in the over/under.
So is the 5 for the whole game
or just the first 3 innings?
"I'd just like to point out that every newspaper in the country has picked us to finish last. The local press seems to think that we'd save everyone the time and trouble if we just went out and shot ourselves." - Major Leauge
Over
I'd say 6 walks. These Rays are better than they were in recent years. Look what happened to Guthrie.
How about over under on O's avg pitches per AB?
We'll need to guess that one day. Cabrera walks will be fine for tonight.
4.2
The Crow has them a hackin' away...

get him back to his early mechanics?
When he had an 89-to-76 BB-to-K?
Yeah, Jim, just imagine being a pitching coach getting to work with Daniel Cabrera. Just imagine how fun it was for Miller and Mazzone.
Can't recall who the quote was atributed to
Or even if it mentioned him by name. Some pitching coach said "he's the kind of guy who gets you fired".

they played the Rays as their 2nd home game and it was their lowest attendance ever. The game after that was even lower attendance. It's going to get ugly this year.

Looking at Cabrera makes me feel angry
I can't quite figure out why. I mean, he is who he is.
Formerly known as Javylicious.
I could give you a few reasons why.
"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again."
I see all that potential
and think to myself, Damn, what would I give to be 6'5', throw 97 mph and be a ML starter?
And for whatever reason, Danny can't put that talent together. It doesn't seem to be lack of effort.
Oh shit, he's pacing over a bad call already. Here it comes...
"I'd just like to point out that every newspaper in the country has picked us to finish last. The local press seems to think that we'd save everyone the time and trouble if we just went out and shot ourselves." - Major Leauge
well, 6'9"
The only thing I do give him is that he started playing ball way late in life. He was going to be a basketball player.
Damn, that's right, he's a foot taller than I am
And there's the meltdown I unfortunately predicted after not getting the strike call...
"I'd just like to point out that every newspaper in the country has picked us to finish last. The local press seems to think that we'd save everyone the time and trouble if we just went out and shot ourselves." - Major Leauge
there's No. 1
B.J. Upton walks after Cabrera totally loses him. Runners on first and second, let's see if Danny implodes.
MASN showed
a 1-2 count the entire time Upton was up to bat. Get it together, boys!

Hernandez should adopt my video game strategy with Luis
Never swing unless there's two strikes and it's an obvious strike.
And he cut on what would've been ball four.
Guaranteed DP ball coming.
That's actually pathetic
Rebuilding team or not, there is no good reason why there shouldn't have been more people going to the 2nd game of the season.. this team should be a lot more entertaining than anything we've fielded in a while anyway.

it's not so much Huff
It's just that Aubrey Huff and Jay Payton -- my two least favorite players with Gibby gone -- are living embodiments of what was wrong with the Orioles. It's not their fault.
Bars close too early in Baltimore for Huff. That's understandable. People say shit.
The Orioles go well with White Zin, by the way
and why do they call it WHITE Zinfandel if it's pink?

WELL PLAYED, GENTLEMEN.
"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again."
We're OK, people
Deep breaths. Adam Jones squeezes the ball and all is well.

yES!
Getting off the schneid is always such a great feeling. 0-21? Not this year! This is muthaf**king birdland!
OMG....
Looks like I missed a pretty good game...
Jamie Walker struck out the side?
Adam Jones' first RBI?
Aubrey with 4 RBIs?
Luis Hernandez actually got on base and scored a RUN???
To those that watched, how was Randor Bierd? I got some unreasonable hope that he'll be a nice surprise this year
it's not unreasonable
Bierd has a good arm and pitched well last year in the Tiger system. I like him, too.
He looked good. You can do a hell of a lot worse for long men than Bierd and Albers.

Bierd's a long man?
I know that he supposedly has this filthy changeup, and yet can still hit 90-some with his fastball. If he has the stamina, I wonder how he'd do as a starter...

Apologetic, hoping "his bat can do the talking from here on out". Me too, Aubrey. Me too.
