Baltimore Orioles at Seattle Mariners, Apr 24, 2008 10:10 PM EDT

| Today's Starting Pitchers | GS | IP | ERA | WHIP | BAA | BB | K | W-L |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adam Loewen - LH | 3 | 15.2 | 6.32 | 1.79 | .262 | 12 | 11 | 0-1 |
| Jarrod Washburn - LH | 4 | 24.0 | 4.13 | 1.25 | .304 | 2 | 13 | 1-3 |
From Yahoo! Sports:
The Mariners could have had a good shot at ending their struggles against the Orioles with ace Erik Bedard eligible to come off the disabled list for this game against his former team. However, the left-hander’s return is being pushed back in order to give him another throwing session in the bullpen.
He is scheduled to start Saturday against Oakland.
In his place, the Mariners will turn to Jarrod Washburn (1-3, 4.13 ERA), who’s hoping to avoid losing his third straight start. After falling to Kansas City on April 14, he gave up season highs of four runs and 10 hits in six innings of a 4-1 defeat against the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday.
Washburn is 6-4 with a 4.52 ERA in 13 career games—12 starts—against the Orioles. Markakis is 1-for-9 with five strikeouts against the left-hander.
Washburn will face Baltimore left-hander Adam Loewen (0-1, 6.32), who’s coming off his first loss of the year. Loewen gave up three runs and six hits while walking five in the 3-1 defeat against the Chicago White Sox last Wednesday.
He was originally scheduled to start Tuesday, but the team gave him some additional time off to work on his command.

Seriously
What is the deal with Bedard? Since when have the Orioles become so frightening? Furthermore, I thought the trade was handled pretty well on the Orioles’ part.

Thorne and Palmer were just saying that Trembley says “Adam Loewen is the reason we’re carrying 13 pitchers.” Is he? Then get him the fuck out of the starting rotation, and get Olson or Liz in there. The “logic” there isn’t. It’s nonsense.

Seriously though
I get pulling a pitcher early when he’s completely lost command or is giving up HR after HR. But 4 hits? Why waste free pitches out of that arm?
He retired over half the batters he faced. He’d get out of the inning eventually, who cares if it’s 5-0 or 7-0 or 9-0? Make him go 4 innings.

What is it gonna take
to get Loewen out of the rotation? Albers would be better. At least two guys in AAA would be better. And maybe we could lose this “13 man bullpen” bullshit.

I also think Loewen has some promise, maybe. But we can’t send him down and he’d be an absolute disaster in the bullpen, more than likely. so what CAN we do? I think you have to stick him in the pen, hold your nose, and hope for the best.

I figure Dave Trembley is the same as most managers. If you give him the players, he’ll win. You don’t, he’ll lose. Like super genius Tony LaRussa. (Actually, Dave reminds me of LaRussa in a lot of ways.)

Loewen needs some work
Looks like Loewen did it again. It seems like he can’t have just one quality start. Giving up a first inning homer to slumping Adrian Beltre doesn’t look good at all
Hopefully the birds can keep this scoring pace up of one run an inning and soon it will be a new ball game.
Roberts Mora and Markakis are due up which can only mean that best possibility of tieing this sucker up
O something else i noticed which isn’t news but the O’s needed someone like Frank Thomas but too late there is always Barry Bonds which is all but no hope at all for that one.

i was at a torrential rainstorm at OPACY a few years ago...
...at a game I think Larry Bigbie eventually ended with a 10th inning dong. Some tragic wastes of blood, rednecks from Carroll County, no doubt, ran on the field during the rain delay. the cops who had to walk out into the rain were not happy about it, made the dinks kneel in the wet OF to get cuffed.
once they were out of sight, I presume nightsticks were introduced to intimate parts of anatomies. i suspect there may have been cornholing.

Jim Rice. The most feared hitter to ever walk the planet. Managers saw Rice come up with the bases loaded and they said, “You know what? Fuck it. I’m scared - I’m not ashamed to admit it. Let’s walk him. Fuck this. I’m going home. Hang on, I - oh, fuck, I shit my pants. Jim Rice, my God.”
It never actually happened even once but hey! Good copy about Jim Rice, feared fearsman. A sword-wielding Danzig of his day.
I often wonder what would happen if Bob Gibson (in prime) faced Jim Rice (in prime). I fear the earth would have collapsed around them, leaving only the mound, the batters box area, and the outfield wall. COME GET IT MOTHERFUCKERS.
