Texas Rangers at Baltimore Orioles, Jul 5, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
7:05 :: MASN2 :: 79° E 5 MPH :: Rain: 50%
Today's Starting Pitchers GS IP ERA WHIP BAA HR BB K W-L Scott Feldman - RH - #39 12 (14) 78.0 4.38 1.29 .251 10 27 39 2-3 Brian Burres - LH - #56 15 (17) 86.2 5.09 1.55 .299 12 30 42 6-5
I bet today's the day that Burres starts exercising the knowledge of how to "step it up." Standing in his way is Scott Feldman, a man whose skin is touched by the sun and giving it the appearance of porcelain. Also, he has a little kid bully movie name.

And I’m warnin’ y’all now, I’m gonna be dog-shit crazy over the Blow Jays series. I gots me some SERIOUS Cito hatred built up.

Why?
I’m rotting for the MFY this weekend, since every loss sends the PHN further away from 1st and closer to us. If we win, we stay with the MFY even if they win. If PHN wins, they stay ahead of us.
If PHN loses to the MFY, we stay ahead of MFY and gain ground on PHN. Until MLB changes the rules so both can lose, I’ll be a reluctant MFY rooter this weekend, hoping the O’s sweep.

From Roch
Randor Bierd has reported to Double-A Bowie and is scheduled to throw two innings tomorrow as part of his injury rehab assignment.Bierd will appear in five games with the Baysox through July 17th before the Orioles re-evaluate him.
Down on the farm, Single-A Frederick’s Billy Rowell came within a triple of hitting for the cycle. His fourth home run was a tremendous shot to center field. Brandon Snyder and Chris Vinyard also homered, and Jake Arrieta struck out 10 in five innings.

I was listening to Gary interview Dave today on the radio
about what they’re talking about right now. Gary asked if he’d rather put Nick in the 2 or 3 spot and Dave said, “If I had any good right handed hitters I’d put that guy at 2 and NIcky at 3.” I enjoyed how he said they don’t have any good right handers. Although I think AJ will fulfill that need soon enough.

I dunno
Kinsler is a hell of a hitter and he played the percentages, and Burres was very much battling. It’s just that Cormier isn’t good.

given up 2 runs, thrown 70-something pitches..
trembley needs to stop bitching about burres not going 5 or more if he’s going to pull him out in a situation like that. Just my opinion.
anyway, i’m going out for dinner and drinks. hope this game doesn’t turn into a disaster.

DD in today's Sun
Cormier has tossed six scoreless innings over his past two appearances. He held the Washington Nationals to one hit and a walk in four innings last Saturday to earn his first career save, and he retired all six Kansas City Royals he faced Thursday night.“I felt like I was overthrowing the times before, so I backed my stride off, which allowed me to get out in front of the ball and allowed me to command the fastball, which wasn’t there,” said Cormier, who hasn’t given up a run in seven of his past eight games. “That allowed me to find a better rhythm.”
Trembley said Cormier has become more effective because the right-hander has tightened his breaking ball.
“He’s shown the ability to throw his breaking ball to both right- and left-handed hitters for called strikes, and he has used his fastball to pitch down in the zone,” Trembley said.
“I’m looking for somebody to step up to the plate and take the place of [Matt] Albers. I was kind of hoping we would have our starters in a position where I wouldn’t need that type of a guy so often, but if so be, I don’t have a problem with Cormier.”
Well, I do now.

I liked the Tanqueray, but face it, as much OJ as I mix it with, I could probably buy Smirnoff in the plastic bottle and not notice a difference.

Reckon I’d put Tanqueray a hair above Smirnoff, which is a fine enough vodka, especially at $11.95/fifth.
What I hate is how much more money I have to spend on bourbon to get a decent drink as compared to vodka. $17.98 for Wild fucking Turkey for God’s sake. $24.95 for Maker’s Mark. Come on.

Ahem, take notes, gentlemen: I. American Eagle. 2. Jeneric Jack's 3. Whoneedz Rocks
Truth to tell, while I don’t actually drink a lot of vodka (for somebody who lives in Moscow), when I do drink it, I go with
1. Absolut (Citron)
2. Absolut (Currant)
3. Whatever the special is at my local 7 Continents (of the grain vodkas)
Russians will drink anything, of course, including airplane windshield de-icer; but given their drutthers, a lot of them actually go with foreign vodkas (although seldom Polish)—including American Eagle, I sh#t you not.
Also, on another front, go freakin’ figure: there are dozens of good European beers available in Moscow now, including Czech beers (both imported and made under license in Russia). And yet somehow Miller also has a not inconsiderable market share, with their crappy generic goes-with-pizza-only, lowest-common-denominator beer.

On
MLB teams, the least experienced guy in the bullpen is responsible for bringing the in-game snacks (normally candy) for the bullpen. To further embarass the player normally the bullpen rookie (who actually would be Aquino now), most teams will make them carry the snacks in a pink kid’s backpack.
Hence the only job he’s suitable to do in a bullpen is to bring the candy.
