Today's Starting Pitchers GS IP ERA WHIP BAA HR BB K W-L Brian Burres - LH - #56 16 (18) 92.1 5.07 1.56 .303 12 31 44 6-5 Clay Buchholz - RH - #61 8 42.1 5.53 1.63 .285 3 20 43 2-3
If we lose this game and the Jays beat the Yankees, we have sole possession of last place.
I suppose everyone here knows Clay Buchholz. It was less than a year ago that he no-hit the Orioles, one day before this happened to my beloved Wolverines. That was quite a weekend, let me tell you.
Buchholz started this year with the SAWX, but after he wasn't pitching very well for the SAWX, he was sent down to pitch for the Paw SAWX. He also had a fingernail injury of some sort. Buchholz pitched nine games for the Paw SAWX (4-2, 2.47 ERA), and now is back with the real SAWX, with Justin Masterson going down to the Paw SAWX to learn how to pitch out of the bullpen, presumably for the SAWX.
In his career against the SAWX, Brian Burres has a 5.79 ERA and 1.93 WHIP (18.2 innings). The last time that Burres faced the SAWX, he was lit up to the tune of seven earned in four innings, giving up two homers in 12 hits. Hopefully in this outing against the SAWX, he won't fold like a cheap tent quite so quickly. If he can give us five or six, and with Buchholz having struggled earlier this year for the SAWX, hopefully we can get off this five-game schneid with a win against the SAWX.
We really do need to beat the SAWX tonight, if only for our own selfish reasons, like sanity. When you lose five straight games with scores of 5-3, 11-10, 7-6, 9-8 and 6-5, it gets a little tough to handle. So let's beat the SAWX.

I certainly hope
that Brian Burres might “step it up” tonight, as it’s been quite a while since he’s managed to that.
Bucholz
strikes out twice as many as Brian, walks 25% more, allows half as many HRs. Has a lower Batting average against an insignificantly higher WHIP, and yet still has a higher ERA than Brian. Incredible. I guess Fenway is a doubles park though.
ugh, NESN
I was praying that somehow I’d get the B’more feed. No dice.

Yeah....this has so far been a fan-freaking-tastic summer for superhero/comic book movies...
and the Dark Knight won’t change that
what's nice...
is that they’ve finally realized that people have the ability to accept a comic book character being in a seriously good script with a seriously good story. X2 had that (and X-Men to a lesser extent) but then the third one was some Fantastic Four-level bullshit. I was soured on superhero movies with X-Men III but thank God that was just a singularly bad movie. All the Elektra, Daredevil, etc. bullshit were just attempts to cash in anyway.
Considering I was never an avid reader of comic books, I’ve got some pissy feelings about the movies.

Sit there and look stoic. Don’t wonder if it’s a good idea to send Burres out over his season average of pitches thrown in Fenway Park against the Red Sox in a one-run game. Just clench your jaw and command RESPECK

Here’s Palmer’s reasoning, I will guess:

2. Brandon Fahey can’t hit for fuck all.
3. Thus, Brandon Fahey must be a good fielder.

He NEEDS to get this out.
I’m pretty sure he WILL get this out.
i came a few innings ago.
Burres looked decent to me. Bullpen has done its job with a couple DPs. Some stupid errors though, but also some opportunistic scoring.
Fahey actually gave us 2 insurance runs 2 innings ago
Thank you sir - I was listening on the radio and feared after the 2nd would not go well for Burress.
Good to see he came back.

we should really have a short stop on our team, you know?
Yes, I should say that, which, I should say that.
IF we had...
no. THAT was B-R-U-T-A-L

Sorry, friend
I was watching the game in bed with my wife. Your continued insistence that I disappear after losses seems to hold even less water after you CREATE a thread celebrating (?) the Rays (not the O’s, but the Rays) sweep of the Sox and I have the first and several subsequent responses to it. You guys have other straw men to play with though.

Losses to the Orioles, my friend, losses to the Orioles.
And your post here THE FOLLOWING MORNING doesn’t really count as being around to take your medecine. Regardless of what you were doing with your wife.
My apologies
Should I let you know when I use the john too? I’m a little confused as to why I’m on trial here. Well except for you’re all apparently dead end losers.

you know, I was just about to do a post about how Fahey seemed to be improving
then he let a groundball roll through his legs. Maybe he’ll inspire me to do one later.

I was following the game on my cell phone again, since the Pirates were too busy losing 6-0 in about 2 hours 24 minutes. No lie. And no-DH is fucking stupid. Just sayin’. Nice ball park, though, and awesome fireworks after the game.
I was with some people from the non-profit I’m here with, and one is a die hard PHN’er. But she’s been that way since birth, and possess the ability to say the letter “r”, so it’s all good.
Nice to see Jim Johnson back and in command. And even PHN fans hate Julio Lugo, by the way.
