Baltimore Orioles at Cleveland Indians, Aug 14, 2008 7:05 PM EDT


7:05 / MASN2 :: 72° :: Wind in from LCF - 7 MPH :: Rain - 30%

Enquob5w_medium Flajht4a_medium

  Today's Starting Pitchers GS IP ERA WHIP BAA HR BB K W-L
Daniel Cabrera - RH 25 158.0 4.78 1.47 .269 19 71 89 8-7
Zach Jackson - LH 0 (2) 3.2 4.91 1.91 .313 0 2 1 0-0

Jackson was acquired in the C.C. Sabathia trade, and this will be his first appearance for the Indians. He was 3-1 with a 4.05 ERA in eight appearances (four starts) at Triple-A Buffalo since the trade. He had a couple of relief outings in Milwaukee earlier this year.

Cabrera has been up-and-down lately, with three bad starts in his last five, but he threw six shutout innings against the Rangers last time out. If he can help us win one today, we salvage a split with Cleveland. But since the O's have never seen Jackson before, consider me worried about a win.

Isolated thunderstorms in the Cleveland area tonight

We might get a delay or two, but we probably got an entire game to listen to tonight…

Why is he bunting this early in the game anyway?

[Guthrie's] president of my heart. ~PhilR8

Because he's a 229/267/333 career major league hitter

“I enjoy the staff, the players, the organization,” Huff said. “I’ve had a great time this year. I see a lot of future in this team. I left an organization in Tampa that has gotten good. I’d hate to leave this place and see them get good as well.”
