Gameday Thread: O's (59-63) @ Tigers (60-63)
Baltimore Orioles at Detroit Tigers, Aug 17, 2008 1:05 PM EDT
![]()
Today's Starting Pitchers GS IP ERA WHIP BAA HR BB K W-L Garrett Olson - LH 27 139.1 6.06 1.67 .307 14 44 64 8-6 Zach Miner - RH 5 (37) 74.0 3.41 1.36 .249 6 32 40 6-4
It's Sunday. You know what that means.
Garrett Olson has some pretty horrendous numbers, but has pitched just enough good games that I like to hold out hope for him. Hopefully he can turn in one of his better outings and send the O's back to Baltimore with a winning road trip.

Meanwhile, Moose was busy extinguishing his last chance for 20 by sucking again,
this time against the Mighty Kansas City whatever-they-are. But the Yerks have bailed him out with a big inning, up 6-3 or thereabouts.
Moose ‘n’ Sid have been the only people pitchig for sh*t on the Yerks lately— and Sid’s been Guthried his last two times out, hee-hee.

question
is george sherril going to start tampering with the bats so that he might get a chance to pitch sometime?

8 of 9 starters have multi-hit games now
Millar is the slacker, right?

Tigers TV just did a Memlo Montage of today's at bats. Nice.
You can almost smell the zombiefied dead-zone concentration. Impressive.

just an aside but....
Why the hell is Aubrey Huff not traded? He is hitting the cover off the ball and it seems to me someone would want that, and he cannot be the DH of the future, can he?
He should be the easiest person on our team to deal imho.

You're not alone: Nobody's been able to figger this one out...

he cleared waivers
so no-one was willing to take him at his current contract. Crazy

No real reason to trade him now instead of the off-season unless somebody offers you a great package.
He’ll have just as much value in the off-season as now unless a team in the hunt really needs a LH power hitter, which given the lack of a trade, doesn’t seem to be the case.

he'll have a long career as a pitching coach.
that’s what left-handed pitchers do when they retire.
