Cleveland (69-72) at Baltimore (63-78), 9/8/08
Carmona versus Olson. I filled in some stuff from the AP game preview to make it to 75 words. Discuss
It may be too late to make a difference, but the Cleveland Indians are getting healthy again. They’re just wondering what might have been had the injuries not piled up in the first place.
Victor Martinez will look to continue his hot hitting and Fausto Carmona will try for his fourth straight victory on Monday when the Indians open a four-game road set against the hapless Baltimore Orioles, losers of eight in a row.

If we lose, Millar will eat your ski hat. A little salt, some barbecue sauce, side o' fries-- 's nothin'.

Truthfully speaking, he can borrow Millar's.

How's that ski hat taste?
Truthfully, I might have made the same bet.

Now, now
I don’t think it’s over 30 just yet.

Luke just crushed the everloving shit out of that ball.
That’s the highpoint of the last two weeks for the O’s.

I just watched the replay
Did they give a distance on it? That was ridiculous.

415 according to the scoreboard
That seems wrong to me…

Yikes, listening to the Sawx announcers is like reading AMA.
“Underinformed homers” sums it up. And with accents.
It’s like Russian coverage of international soccer matches, which I tend to watch on TV with the sound off.
3-0 Sawx after 5.

But in good news from the greater Boston area.
Tom Brady – out for the year.
Say hello to the 9-7 Buffalo Bills – AFC East Champions.

I like the Pats almost as much as I like the Sawx-- and their good-spirited, knowledgeable fans!

Wanna bet your ski hat they don't...?
Oops, forgot, Millar’s already putting charcoal on the grill.

sure. i'll bet you five bucks they still win 10 games.
Yes, I should say that, which, I should say that.
Welllllllll....Nah, it's tempting but I still want the hat. I mean, y'know, Millar's leftovers.

dude I could get 8 wins as QB for the pats
that’s a loaded squard son
Yes, I should say that, which, I should say that.
hey is that a QS
for Mr. Garrett Olson? When was the last time an O’s starter did that?

Six IP, 3 ER...
Something about those numbers seems familiar. Could it possibly be a quality start?

Lie down, apply cold compresses (if available), drink plenty of fluids and it should pass in 4-6 hrs.
There is no known cure, but several over the counter medicines relieve many of the symptoms: try Jim Beam, Johnnie Walker and Yukon Jack.

I can just make out the stadium lights from my dorm. I think I can barely see the top of the stadium.
that’s gotta mean something, right?
right?
Does it say SURRENDER DOROTHY just above the lights? There ya go.

Just turned on gameday and...
the O’s are winning, with the bases juiced, and 1 out. Not too shabby.
And he really is now, too
Congrats to the Huffster and his wife on the new kid.

8 losses, one win .... equals ..... wait for it ....
4-32
Yes, I should say that, which, I should say that.
New CD Friday
Just sayin’. And the new stuff ain’t bad. I love teh last 3 minutes of this tune. And “Cyanide” and especially “My Apocalypse” sound like it’s 1988 all over again.

Did you check out that NYT piece I linked?

If I ever found myself in a Halliburton building
it’s because I’d been kidnapped by Blackwater operatives. That is one EVIL corporation.

Let's not trade for Rocco Baldelli after all. His 4 K's and 16 guys LOB (or something) tonight have dimmed my hopes...

Weird Juxtaposition City: listening to the O's on a weak AM station from York, I get fade-in, fade-out stuff
from a rock station near 1350. Right now I’m getting Joe Angel alternating with 3 Dog Night doing “Mama Told Me Not Come” — which is absolutely true for most nights at OPACY.

WHVR 1280 AM!
I guess it depends where you are at the moment… As I drive towards York on 83, 105.7 starts fighting with the awful alt rock station in York on the same frequency, so I head over to 1280, which is not bad
Thx, will give it a try! Although it's all a crapshoot from here (No. PA, 65 mi. west of Scranton)

Sorry I haven’t been around as much – work and kids are taking all my time these days. Daughter’s up to 5 days a week swimming practice, and don’t get me started on the boy…

OH MY GOD
The Orioles Win!
And a HR cycle once more, Luke for the solo, RZA for the 2-run job, AJ with Earl’s favorite, and Aubrey with the GS…nice.

This game was Listerine
removing the bad taste in my mouth after a 15 game losing streak.
Huff could very well be in the top 10 for MVP candidates this year
Hell of a stat line he’s producing this year.
Aw man
they just showed the Luke shot again, damn that was nice. Ricocheted up off the warehouse. Is that how you spell that? It looks bizarre.

According to Roch
Tuesday Liz
Wednesday Waters
Thursday Bass!?!
Friday Cabrera
Saturday Guthrie
Sunday Olson
Yep, that’s a six-man rotation. Kind of a weird response to having 1.5 major league starters.
Well I think
Bass is just making a spot start to make up for Guts having the flu.
