Detroit Tigers at Baltimore Orioles, Jul 17, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
7:05 :: MASN :: 90° SE 5 MPH :: Rain: 10%
Today's Starting Pitchers GS IP ERA WHIP BAA HR BB K W-L Kenny Rogers - LH - #37 19 114.2 4.55 1.52 .293 11 45 44 6-6 Garrett Olson - LH - #18 14 73.1 5.65 1.57 .287 9 30 47 6-4
Kenny Rogers is 43 years old. Garrett Olson is 24. When Rogers was sneaking beers and partying down with JuCo co-eds, Olson was eating smushed peas. When Rogers was getting bombed in the '96 playoffs, Olson was...I dunno, probably watching that on TV.
One man is old.
The other man is young.
In one locker, there is Rogaine.
In the other, a PSP.
Who figured there would be a 1.5 game difference between the Tigers and Orioles on July 17?

One man has balls
the other, not so much.
There should be a pool on when Olson’s meltdown du jour happens.

Maybe Garrett could learn how to throw a greaseball.
That might help him the same way it’s helped Kenny over the years.

Not me, fo sure. Plus we have a better farm system. They do have that Miguel Cabrera fella, though.

Well, the good news is...
Sherrill will get that extra day of rest after his 2-1/3 at the ASG. His services are not required here.

and Bynum in to run for Luuuke.
I guess he’s a little bit faster, though I’d try Luke at SS if necessary.

dang it.
I wish Millar could run faster than an octogenarian with bad knees.

Wait, wait, wait...
If Roberts scored before Millar got tagged, wouldn’t it count? Surely he must have scored first, no?

So I guess this is the pattern for the second half
14 hits is not enough… Facing a washed-up fraud like Kenny Rogers is not enough… We still lose on bad baserunning, runners LOB and porous pitching. Now we give back all the one-run miracles from the first half with equally miraculous one run losses in the second.
OK, Andy, I’m ready—do what you must, just give me a swig of rotgut and a stick to bite on.

Well, I watched on TV and couldn't get to a computer
I had low expectations today, so I wasn’t dissapointed. Sure, we lost, and a win would have been awesome, but I actually like the Tigers a lot (a close friend is a Tigers fan), and If I chose a team to lose to, it would definitely be the Tigers.
Plus Garret Olson did go 6 sucky innings, which is still better than 4 sucky innings., now if the suckiness would just go away.
If Melvin Mora and Luke Scott start hitting again, this offense could be fun to watch.
If we overperformed we’d run the risk of not getting anyone traded, and none of us want that. Instead our players played well and lost. I was entertained for the duration of the baseball game (except for Leyland pulling 2 pitchers in the same inning for no frickin reason, there’s a special place in hell for people who do that)
