Baltimore Orioles at Boston Red Sox, Jun 11, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
| Today's Starting Pitchers | GS | IP | ERA | WHIP | BAA | HR | BB | K | W-L | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 |
Garrett Olson - LH | 8 | 44.1 | 3.86 | 1.42 | .270 | 3 | 16 | 32 | 5-1 |
 |
Bartolo Colon - RH | 4 | 23.0 | 3.91 | 1.39 | .280 | 1 | 6 | 15 | 3-1 |
HmmmBOY, are you FAT!
Colon is generously listed at 5'11", 245 pounds. Year by year of his baseball career, he becomes closer to a Dominican Danny DeVito.
Olson was good against Boston on May 31 (5 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 5 K).

you might have something there...I just get a little testy when the ball goes through the pitcher's
legs to start the game. Makes him look like a jerk. THEN he throws away an easy pickoff…THEN he throws a wild pitch…THEN he gives up a parking lot homer…THEN mascot gidp’s…Anger’s rising….pulse is quickening….rage is taking hold…aahhh fuck it. just a game

Yuck. I can take the Red Sox hitting him all over the place. But the walks and the error? Ugly.

or has the infield shift been used more often in baseball this past year? Maybe I’m just noticing it more, but I feel like I see it all the time now, where I didn’t a few years ago.
