PrintTampa Bay Rays at Baltimore Orioles, Sep 24, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
From the Yahoo!/STATS preview:
Sweeping a doubleheader from the lifeless Baltimore Orioles may not be a great accomplishment, but those wins have put the Tampa Bay Rays on the verge of something far more remarkable - their first division title.
Ha! Even the hum-drum STATS editors are calling the Orioles "lifeless" -- it's that obvious.
Go on, Birds. Tank another one. Hand it over. Don't even try. We're used to it. Really.

I have no problems losing the rest of the games this season
Maybe Pittsburgh can end on a winning streak and let us get the fourth draft pick next year.
Can y'all at least win tonight?
Would that hurt y’all draft position?

I'm like the teams more than I like the indivual players.
I used their jersey numbers cause it makes the name unique. I use it for all of my usernames, because it’s always available. I use relatively current players so that people don’t question it too often. Ted Williams transcends time though.

I watched the entire game. The defense is aging and the Bucs exposed them by running a no-huddle offense.
Peanut was stupid and had too much testosterone. I hope Matt Bryant can make more game-winning kicks for the Bucs, and that he recovers from the loss of his infant son.

I like your pitchers
but most young pitchers look good against us for whatever reason. Wieters is going to cause planets to collide, and you will still have B-Rob, Jones, Markakis to build around.

They started it (not to sound juvenile) and they prolly won’t go to OTM cause their scared.

It’s hard to watch games when your team gives up at the end of July every single year. The Rays were bad for almost as long as we have been, but not because they didn’t try every night; I remember watching Rays games where it would be just pathetic how little talent they had on the field.

Although it looks like Tampa could come back and bump us closer to #4, I take no pleasure in watching this debacle as Liz is a player who could legitimately be a part of our future. If Jamie Walker was in the game, it’d be a different story.

oh well never mind. Nothing wrong with the Orioles anyway.
haha I won’t try subscribing to Wankee stuff though. Imagine having THAT on my profile

It's a symbolic thing
Because the reason the Rays don’t suck this year is because their defense is better.
Although Bartlett’s really not that good defensively.

Tampa Chapter of BBWAA are morons.
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
Keith Law
had a couple of interesting comments about this from his chat.
Chris (Dallas, TX): Jason Bartlett is the scrappiest scrap that ever scrapped. Kudos to the BBRAA!
Keith Law: I have a new word for players like him, whom the BBRAA praises in spite of obvious evidence that they’re not that good: scraptacular. I doubt I made this up, but I’ll claim it anyway.
Paul Philadelphia: I know this is a touchy subject and won’t get picked, but do you find anything disturbing/odd about how few of the “scraptacular” players out there are of non-white descent?
Keith Law: There is no question in my mind that “scrappy” is a term used to elevate white players who are not that athletic. You almost never hear about unathletic black players who play hard. There’s still a lot of latent racism in baseball.
Zartan says, "Sign Dan Johnson."
At least they can't clinch
On our home field?
Atlanta won.
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver
Atlanta win + Giants win + Orioles Loss
Clinches a #5 pick.
Moving up to #4 is going to be tough, the Pirates seem to want it more.
I was just going to say
Pittsburgh has dug themselves in and are just going to hold us off for the last few games. This is a valiant effort by the boys, but moving from the middle of the pack to fourth overall in a matter of a few weeks is just too much.

Does anyone watch Heroes?
I just watched the opening 2 episodes, and Marlo and Bubbles from the Wire are bad guys this season.
that show lost me a while ago
But that’s cool.

I'm in the middle of the second season of The Wire
Bubs rules. Marlo hasn’t been introduced yet, I don’t think. Glad a lot of Wire alums are finding high-profile work.
It is amazing
HBO kept that show on for so long, the only explanation is because they thought that they could squeeze out a few emmys.

Marlo comes in season 3, I think
Royo was so good as Bubbles that playing a one-dimensional villian will probably be a bit of a letdown.
But I’m very happy he’s getting work.
I have no idea who they are
but I found the 2 Heroes eps underwhelming.
/Yeah, I’m the guy too cheap to spring for HBO

Definitely
It’s required viewing, IMO. Especially for anyone with Baltimore connections.
Not sure that includes me
I’m a rather defiant resident of the shithouse east of Baltimore, remember…

Fortunately for me, my friend bought all five seasons
and watched them in a week, so I’ve just been borrowing them. But they’re worth netflixing. Just make sure you get more than one disc at a time….
This game is making me angry for some reason
I mean, my mind is like “who gives a fuck,” but my HEART is hurting. Sigh.
you have to give a shit to do that

JAmie Walker is a little crazy
And he has nothing to lose.
Bring him in to start some shit.
I've said it before
When you’re in a pennant race like these two teams are, things tend to get heated. It’s understandable.

The O's had a SIX RUN LEAD
and will lose by at least 5. How does a Major LEague team even do that with regularity?We need to go to an EL model and demote the lowest teams in each division and bring up the winners of AAA divisions.

Do the Orioles even qualify as a major league team?

they do not care
They are gutless. Like a John L. Smith football team.

When your batting below .190
How do you ever make an error.

Not sure if I missed the conversation, but congrats, SC, on the Millan firing.
