Nate Robertson vs Daniel Cabrera

Clear. Winds blowing out to center field at 5-15 m.p.h. Game Time temperature: Around 90.

 

Complete Coverage >





Let's all hope Good Danny shows up. Come on Danny, zknower has faith in you! Why Melvin Mora is batting third is beyond me. Probably his playoff experience combined with the off the top of the foul pole HR made it impossible to leave him in the 7 hole.

I'm heading out to the game in just a few minutes so any mods who want to gussy up this game thread have at it.

Let's Go O's!

Uh, yeah. 4-0 in the 1st off Bad Daniel Sh*t.

Palmer: "Well, everything starts over." Somebody's got to go out and talk to him. 6-0. Started over?

Thanks for waiting til we're down

6-0 to go talk to Danny, Ramon. It’s not like Danny’s a little fragile or anything.

Danny

Single, double, HBP, sac fly. Followed by a 3-R HR. And a walk. Aaaaand another HR.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?

I go to Walmart to get some milk and paint supplies. I walk in at just before 1st pitch. I come out at 7:23, and my radio says

DET 6 BAL 0

What the hell did Danny do? Hit the first 2 and allow a HR, then walk the next 2 an another HR?

i'm actually excited to see loewen hit..

i had given up on him as a pitcher. But Loewen wasn’t really a power hitter was he?

well, it's true..

he could find the plate.. the problem is that the opponent’s bats found his pitch before it reached the plate most of the time

by Y Not on Jul 19, 2008 7:36 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Oh, he could find it

Usually center of it, belt-high

I really suspect we saw Danny's peak with his run earlier this season

We’ve been waiting years to see the guy develop a second pitch.

Yeah, I’m down on him, but I’m not even buying into him being a decent inning eater.

by drj on Jul 19, 2008 8:20 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

So I suppose

all fastballs, all the time isn’t working any more? It was a nice 5 weeks while it lasted, Danny…

Key-rist, Fahey had about an hour and a half to throw him out.Polanco can pick 'em up

but he can’t lay ‘em down, or what?

So, Danny's still out there, huh?

Taking one for the team. Although he totally deserves this.

With luck, this will devolve into the 11-9 game it's threatening to be. We could be the 11. too.

I don't think so

That’s the Renteria at-bat this inning. Not even close.

Anyone know...

who’s on the radio with Joe Angel? Is that Mark Viviano? Sounds like it.

No, local sportscaster

Broke the story about the Browns coming to Baltimore more than a decade ago, nothing of note since.

I have NO IDEA who's with Joe

I thought it was Mark Viv, but it’s not. Joe hasn’t said the guy’s name in the 15 minutes I’ve listened.

Viviano is doing the sideline reporting.

And being not as hot as Amber, per usual.

So I have no idea who's on the radio

Joe hasn’t said his name once. It’s not Dave Johnson, who did either Thursday’s or Friday’s game. All I know is, he’s talking WAY too much.

I like Dave Johnson

he’s a truth teller. After the MDM last year, he went off for a good 20 minutes.

And h'es being really pedantic about it, too, as in We've tried to teach him all this stuff, but he just won't learn!

Well, Jim, we’ve actually noticed his learning curve thing, ya know…

You’d think Palmer had been giving him Master Classes, and now he’s Personally Pissed or something.

Jim is figuring out that Danny isn’t learning from him, and he’s taking it as a personal insult. I don’t doubt this one bit.

Impeach Daniel Cabrera!

If not now, when?
I am officially done with Daniel Cabrera.
Let another team take him on as a project, like Manute Bol.
