Baltimore Orioles at Detroit Tigers, Aug 17, 2008 1:05 PM EDT

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.

Hey wait: If Memlo'd stopped at third and refused to advance, would that count as the cycle?

question

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

you've missed a lot of fun

2 HR each for Melmo and Luuuuke. Also a HR for Aubrey.

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.

Jamie, just get outs here, guy.

Walker isn't fooling anybody.

I swear to god if this turns into a save situation…

Jamie Walker makes me a little sad

I know he’s old and he was bound to start sucking, but I just like him so much.

he'll have a long career as a pitching coach.

that’s what left-handed pitchers do when they retire.

"It's all up to Matt Joyce." You mean if he hits a 9-run donger, that's it?

That was awesome.

Garrett sucked, but it’s okay, MEMLO! and LUUUUUUUUUUUKE just hit the shit out of the ball to get him the ND.
