PrintTexas Rangers at Baltimore Orioles, Apr 25, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
The NFL draft is today and I have boxing later, so I'm sort of taking this one off. Plus I'm gonna get all Hasselhoff'd out on scotch.
Game time is 7:05.

Just remember...
the floor is not a proper place to eat a cheeseburger when drunk.
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
Gonna be down at OPACY tonight
I see I’ll be catching a real marquee pitching matchup. Well, I never pass up a chance to see baseball for free, even from the upper box against Texas.
Besides, I have a feeling there might be a fight tonight, especially if it turns into a blowout.
Maybe Hendo can pick up some of the mojo that’s rubbed off on Eaton and Koji the past couple of nights. Go O’s!

Its draft day (and after last night), so I'm ignoring tonight's game.....
So I’m having some beers and watching Draft action. Hobgoblin is an amazing brew.

I'm having some beers on my deck, watching the boats out on the sea and listening to AJ Burnett implode.
I’m ALMOST mellow enough for The Mark Hendrickson Experience.

nfl draft
don’t know what ravens fans are looking for, but i’m pretty stoked that the skins took orakpo. i was having nightmares they’d sell the farm for sanchez.
"If they pitch to you, make them pay."
--Diamond Dave to the Phenom
I haven't been following the draft at all this year
But it’s nice to see the Skins taking a non-skill position player with their #1 pick for once.
Me too, actually.
Glad to see they didn’t do something incredibly stupid for once.

Help me here
Is Jason Campbell that bad that Snyder wants to spend all off-season looking for his replacement?
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
I'd gladly trade Jake Delhomme for Jason Campbell
I say this as a Panther fan
http://www.mvn.com/oriolecentral
Call me a sucker
But I think Campbell’s a perfectly acceptable NFL starting quarterback.
yeah...
he can’t help having no one to throw to or no one to protect him. actually, in the beginning of last season, when their o-line was healthy, campbell as ridiculously.
and it’s not that he has NOBODY to throw to, but when defenses know all you’ve got is cooley is moss, it’s pretty easy to defend.

Ravens
Nice pick with Oher. As a Giants fan, I’m not looking forward to seeing Orakpo in DC.
"I’m sure glad he didn’t try to bunt." - DD on Melmo's game winning double, 6/17
also...
just to let everyone know, i’m on the Giants SBN site talking draft. CC is sooo much better/more informed/funnier than that site. Its like night and day. you all rock.
"I’m sure glad he didn’t try to bunt." - DD on Melmo's game winning double, 6/17
Hey, look!
Someone who sucks more than Mark Hendrickson, and he’s starting for the other team!
Now watch him embarrass the O’s, Eaton-style.

they can’t blackout games that start after 7:05
they blackout the 3 fox games, + if a game starts at 6 or 630 cus of stupid family night concerts or crap like that they black it out till 7

"Believe it or not, I read the paper." - Nick Markakis
Rules question
In MFY v. PHN, Ortiz just flew out into what Gameday described as a “sacrifice double play.” This is the first time I have heard of such a thing. Its my general understanding that you don’t get an RBI even if you knock in a run but you hit into a double play. However, does Ortiz also get the benefit of not having an AB recorded for the “sacrifice” in this case? Does the question make sense?
Sac fly and Pedroia out on the throw.
I’d imagine Ortiz gets his RBI
"You have to discipline yourself so you don't come out with something just to say you made a trade. You have to make sure you come out better than you were before." - Andy MacPhail, 7/31/08
i agree
its not his fault two outs occured on the play
History is best forgotten, even better rewritten
Since we can't forget it, lets remember it different ~ John Rueben
Oh, Gravity! Thou art a heartless bitch ~ Sheldon Cooper
Thanks
should have just looked at the rules first. RBI doesn’t count only if its a forced or a “reverse-forced” (wtf is that?) double play.
Air out, throw behind DP.
Would be the latter.
"You have to discipline yourself so you don't come out with something just to say you made a trade. You have to make sure you come out better than you were before." - Andy MacPhail, 7/31/08
Nope
A reverse forced double play is a regular double play where the outs are recorded out of order.
So grounder to the 1B, he steps on 1B and throws to 2B who tags the runner out (who is no longer being forced). That’s functionally equivalent to getting the force at 2B and then the force at 1B, so they are treated the same.

Ugh. Does anybody in or near York feel like going out drinking instead of watching this game?
I can see the White Rose from where I’m at. Everybody’s sitting outside, drinking beers, and generally looking all happy. I’m here drinking whiskey with my internet friends getting all angry at my tee-vee.
Got a laptop? Headphones?
ROAD TRIP!

I switch from the draft for one second
And AJ puts his fingers in front of the bat while trying to bunt; stupid, stupid, stupid.

He actually didn't have his fingers wrapped around it which is how you really get hurt.
He just didn’t move his hand out of the way of the ball.
yeah.. with the ball smashing your fingers into the wood
but he still had too much of his hand ‘not hidden’ by the bat

Just watched all of the O's hitters getting thrown at last night and Padilla smiling in the dugout.
I am seething right now.

really effing hard.

Yet Hendo throws him a gopher ball.

Great pick by the Ravens. Class young man. Hardship story and the family

Kinslere will not do shit all season except against Baltimore
Oriole Killer. All of you can remember a player that just lights up Oriole pitching. I can remember Abrey Huff use to hit O’s pitching better than other teams.
"The Minor Leagues. Where it all begins and they still play for the love of the game"
The Jones "scare" reminds me: watching the Yerks-Sawks this p.m., I realized I was rooting not for either team
but for individual players— to get injured. Nothing life-threatening, of course — I’m not ghoul — but something lingering and/or embarrassing: maybe a hammy (they can take months to heal) or 3rd-degree jock rash covering the entire lower torso, making throwing or stooping to field a ball a minor agony.
It was nice to see Lester get lit up, by the way. Dork.

something video game related is always a plus
like Burnett straining something while throwing a pitch on his Wii
Detroit had a guy named Inge
He made a career out of the O’s pitching staff. He has a plate on Eutaw Street.
"The Minor Leagues. Where it all begins and they still play for the love of the game"
Hendrickson sucks
And the Orioles are getting no-hit by Corey fucking Feldman. This has potential to be the worst game of the year.
why
cant they hit this bum? im looking at his numbers, they’re not thaaat good
"It's just unexplainable," -Orioles manager Dave Trembley
Looks like the O's have that Sunday "roll over" attitude tonight.
This could be another Texas style woodshed beating they usually put on the O’s from time to time. We suck so much sometimes.
"The Minor Leagues. Where it all begins and they still play for the love of the game"
Treating Feldman like Cy Young
No plate patience. No energy. Hendrickson pitching. This could be get nasty in a hurry.

ok, I love Gary
but he really has no conception of what strikeouts mean for a hitter. He seems to think you have to “go after a guy” who strikes out a lot.
Saltalamacchia strikes out a lot because he takes a lot of pitches. Davis? Well, he might just suck.

on a funny note
check out the Stankees and PHN game.
Posada has a catcher’s interference AND and a passed ball in the same inning.
It’s now `13-11, with Burnett and Beckett both lit up and out by the 5th. Maybe the two teams can eliminate each other, like Godzilla and Mothra.
This was literally the best outcome for me:
The team I’m playing against this week in fantasy has both Burnett and Beckett starting. They combined for about -5 points today.

When buying off brand potato chips, read the bag carefully. These things taste terrible, and it turns out they are “potato crisps”. Why?!

I am not sure about DHing Wiggy. I am not impressed with him with runners on base.
"The Minor Leagues. Where it all begins and they still play for the love of the game"
there is no evidence to suggest that any hitter
does better in any situation. hitters hit about as well as they always do. Wigginton ain’t a great hitter. But he’s a good one, if a bit streaky.
The small anecdotal sample size to which you seem to be referring has no relevance.
Na. Reimold stays in Norfolk for the season.
So Pie is better? Okay lets see how good he is from now on. So far he has done nothing at the plate or in the field. I will keep watching. Stay with me.
"The Minor Leagues. Where it all begins and they still play for the love of the game"

But you’re wasting your breath. For some reason 90% of Orioles fans think Pie is a total failure and Montanez is some great prospect. I’m in the other 10%.
I'm related to a few Cubs fans.
They were quite disappointed to see Pie go…especially when they decided to bring in Joey Gathright instead.

"The Minor Leagues. Where it all begins and they still play for the love of the game"
Do you remember how much Brady sucked his first year in Baltimore?
He got the whole year, and we’re giving this kid less than 20 games, that’s rigoddamndiculous.

I guess I like him because I saw what he could do in the minors for a couple of years
And when he was called up he hit .295 with 3 HRs in 38 games. This projected out to a pretty good season over 162 games. He out played Pie in ST but Pie had no options and won the job by default. Pie has sucked since given the LF job. I am not a PIE hater. I just want him to do well but I also want to put the best team on the field. Sorry if I come across to biased.
"The Minor Leagues. Where it all begins and they still play for the love of the game"
And as far as Monty
a lot of us fell in love with him after the numbers he put up in limited action with the O’s last year. Most of us have never seen Pie do anything BUT suck.
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
Izturis can't hit
But his defense more than makes up for it. Great work by Pie, too.

You're absolutely right

Something to think about, here.
After just 18 games in the 1982 season, rookie shortstop Cal Ripken was batting .117 for the Orioles.
So, was Cal going to be a total bust, too?
