O's Notes:
-
Adam Jones gets the night off with Jay Payton taking his place in centerfield. Lets hope Jay doesn't get tossed like he did the last time he took over in center for A.J. (Toronto)
-
ChadBrad won't pitch tonight after throwing two innings last night.
-
Adam Loewen got his two innings in last night after waiting out a two hour rain delay. He allowed one run and one hit. Loewen will pitch again tomorrow when Bowie travels to Altoona.
-
Single-A Fredrick pitcher Tim Bascom pitched six innings and sat down the last 11 batters he faced. He gave up one run on five hits with one walk and six strikeouts.

that would be a great video, except for one thing
the idea of the Orioles being buyers at the trade deadline sends chills down my spine. Hopefully Andy is not that stupid. Even with a couple top players, it’s not worth raiding our organization in a division with TB and Boston.
buyers at deadline
Ain’t happening. Andy said we would have to be in 1st place in order to consider that route.
Wolf, wolf, wolf.
dear lord i want one of those bobbles
i’m such a sucker for swag

Where can you buy player t-shirts? I want the Majestic brand shirts that simply say orioles on the front, and then have a player’s name and number on the back. I couldn’t find any on mlb.com. And some bastard bought the one I wanted on ebay.
Wolf, wolf, wolf.
yeah, i checked there,
You can only buy customized shirts.
http://shop.mlb.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2263008&cp=1452344.1452611.2454035
I guess I could pick a player and his number though. Plus I want a black one.
Wolf, wolf, wolf.
who are you going to pick?

"I’m sure glad he didn’t try to bunt." - DD on Melmo's game winning double, 6/17
Too bad
That ball looked like a routine groundout off the bat. Cinston was playing way over towards 3B.
I guess we finally know why Bynum was playing and Cintron was not
Dude hasn’t looked too good at short
well, bring it back!

Do we have an over/under
on Burres making it through 5 innings tonight?
Because I am officially off that wagon. His slow stuff only works when he can locate it, which hasn’t been for a month or so now…
From the Land of Pleasant Living...
He's pitching fine tonight
Only the HR was hit well. The other hits were a bunt, an infield single, and a very slow ground ball single.

BRing in the bullpen
He got to the 6th. Hey, he’s our 5th starter. That ain’t bad. Most years, he’d have been our 3rd best. I can live with a 6-3 lead in the 6th with 2 outs out of my 5th starter.

Matt, your parents are here to watch you, please, for the love of God, be good tonight.
Albers always makes me nervous
his numbers are good, but he seems to make his mistakes when they are most noticeable
Got the out
Good job. Although, a hitter that was 0-2 vers Burres should be gotten out.

I’m loving Gameday adding video during the game – makes not having the TV a little more tolerable.

why do people thing across the board tax decreases and deficit spending will somehow help the economy?
because they refuse to look at the evidence.
Deficit spending can work in SOME cases
like the Great Depression and the New Deal – although some historians will tell you teh New Deal DIDN’T work, and it was the industrial buildup to prepare for WWII after Pearl Harbor that actually ended the Great Depression. Unemployment rates during the New Deal actually didn’t shrink that much. Although Salisbury got a bithcin’ post office out of it. And a couple of schools.
Adjusting for inflation, new workers at GM make the same wage as workers in 1948. And the wealth disparity in teh U.S. has risen so much in the last 30 years it’s actually higher than duringteh Robber Baron Gilded Age. Listening to Bill Moyers makes me smarter.
"I wasn't here for the losing years. But it feels a little like the days with Earl in charge and John Lowenstein smashing birthday cakes in the middle of the clubhouse with a bat." - John "T-Bone" Shelby
i'm not against deficit spending.
I’m against ginormous deficit spending combined with tax cuts. The government can’t just give away all its money and expect that to lead to long-term stability.
economic discussions are not Birdland.

Why is SARFATE coming in?
"I wasn't here for the losing years. But it feels a little like the days with Earl in charge and John Lowenstein smashing birthday cakes in the middle of the clubhouse with a bat." - John "T-Bone" Shelby
Sarfate hasn't worked in a while either
bringing him in makes sense, but my only concern is when does Comier get to pitch?
Exactly
Cormier should be in games with a 4 run lead. Sarfate should be in games that are close.

i'm talking about an ad they're running....
...where they tell you to go to Yahoo sports for the most “up-to-date” analysis of the NBA playoffs.
Um, guys?
I've got to wonder
why do any organizations even return Andy McFale’s phone calls? I mean, we raped Seattle and even with Tejada improving this year, I didn’t think anyone would give us all we got for him…If I’m a GM and the Orioles call me, I’d just hang up…figuring theres no way to come out on top…

in any case no-one respects the Mariners or Astros organization
everyone will assume McPhail robbed them because he could. They’ll still figure Andy’s willing to deal. I just hope he’s able to make more realistic deals in the future (although robbing people blind is always fun)
So, who DOES get the 9th?
I’m good with Cormier. No sense using up anyone else and JJ doesn’t need anymore work tonight.
Cintron’s got 3 hits. Maybe, just maybe, we have a shortstop.

That was a little closer than I wanted...
but I’ll take the win, and my fantasy team can use the save.
maybe JJ should have just pitched the 9th, too…
Wow what a game!
I fucking hate Cintron! Yeah he had that one jack but he fucking blows in the field.

Things are so bad..
Astros fans are regretting not re-signing Huff.
I’d rather have Huff than Wigginton.
He does make about $2 million/year more than Wiggy (3 X $20 M vs. 4.4 million / year for Wigginton). He didn’t have a great year last season, but he hit better (.280, .790 OPS) than the combo the Astros had over the course of the season at 3d.Really, the big error was failing to offer Huff arbitration, since the Astros could have gotten a 1st round draft choice.

37-34.
Now the rest of the AL East just has to stop winning.

the last sweep we had was against the M's (Worst Record in the MLB)

Was it a sweep? Did they win any games in the series?
IT COUNTS!
