PrintBaltimore Orioles at Kansas City Royals, May 14, 2009 8:10 PM EDT
The Birds open up the first of a four game set at Kauffman Stadium.
Fun facts:
- The Orioles are 1-9 in away games this year. Therefore they will lose.
- The Orioles have won 14 of their last 17 at Kauffman Stadium. Therefore they will win.
- KC has lost their last 5 straight. Therefore they will lose!
- KC won six straight at home before their disastrous road trip. Therefore they will win!
- Gil Meche hasn't beaten the Orioles since he was with Seattle in 2005. THEREFORE THERE IS NO WAY THE ROYALS CAN WIN!
- Jeremie Guthrie is 0-3 with an ERA of 6.07 in his last five outings. THEREFORE THERE IS NO WAY THE ORIOLES CAN WIN!
IT HAS WORKED! YOU'VE GIVEN EVERYTHING AWAY! I KNOW WHERE THE POISON IS!

I tacked these on to the Reimold thread
But they are nice enough to say twice.
Wieters just went deep in his first Reimold-free inning, and Trembley confirmed that Hendrickson is going to the pen.
Wow, that's a lot of positives
But what am supposed to bitch about now?
http://www.mvn.com/oriolecentral
How about more good news instead?
Wieters just hit another HR.
If that's the case...
What happens when he gets in the shadow of the top of our lineup?
On second thought
Maybe Wieters was just letting Reimold have the spotlight in Norfolk so that he could get to the bigs sooner.
I’m smart, not a dummy. ~Adam Jones
The fact that Wieters is not on the big club yet

Whose time is up?
Have to figure either Luke or Jones is getting DLed, or else Montanez gets sent down or Pie gets sent out.

I would like to think Adam Eaton
but I’m sure someone’s going on the DL
http://www.mvn.com/oriolecentral
Guessing not a pitcher
McCrory getting sent down and Reimold coming up means there’s an 11 man staff. There’s no way that’s going to last for more than a couple of days – at least, I’ll be very surprised if it does. We’re probably stuck with Eaton until the next guy in the minors forces the issue.
It seems more likely to me that the OF logjam will clear up a small bit, one way or another.

Let's hope Guthrie spells his name Greinke tonight
8 HR? That’s not a good sign.

Reimold in the lineup! What kind of night do we think he has?
I’m gonna say 1-3 with 1 k, 1 BB.

Buck asks Brian why they play well at Kauffman
Brian tries to diplomatically say it’s because the Royals haven’t been very good lately.
I’m smart, not a dummy. ~Adam Jones
of course he added
that the Orioles haven’t been very good lately either.
I’m smart, not a dummy. ~Adam Jones
Very diplomatic on Brian's part.
But I object to Buck saying our pitching has “struggled lately.” I don’t think that’s true; struggling would imply they could be better. I think our pitching is doing as well as it can.

news flash - O's playing in front of a sellout crowd!
… in Kansas City.
How in hell are the royals selling out games?
Must be the on-field excitement
stirred by such luminaries as Willie Bloomquist and Coco Crisp. Nothing puts butts in the seats like Scrappy McSlaphitter types like them.

True, but if the Orioles were in first place right now I’d be there all the time, even if it were smoke and mirrors. I was over at Royals Review and in the game thread some guy is thanking God for their team being in the AL Central.

That lazy bastard failed to homer in his third AB. Instead he decided to strike out like a loser.* Where’s the belly-fire, hot shot?
*He did, however, reach on a passed ball on strike three, and eventually scored.

Gary says Wiggy created a list of his bad habits at the plate.
Where can we get this list?
1. Fried chicken grease is not a substitute for pine tar.
2. Do not close eyes
3. ..
3. Stop picturing opposing pitcher as giant hot dog, losing track of pitch as he considers how much ketchup he’ll need.

On the one hand, I want to say screw the front office for not giving him more than three weeks, but conversely, maybe they thought that some time on the bench would do him some good. Being the Orioles, though, it was probably the former, so screw them.

So let's revisit this
Did it make ANY sense to cut Pie’s ABs significantly after three weeks?
Because I want to be optimistic about our front office and their vision, I refuse to believe that they simply benched him out of frustration, that would simply be too O’s-esque.

I feel like I read somewhere that they thought it'd be good for him to sit back and watch a few games.
To be honest, I think bringing up Montanez made them anxious to give another young player a chance to fall on his face. If the alternative had been someone like Kevin Mench, they probably wouldn’t have bothered sitting Pie.

it did make some sense
he looked god-awful at the plate and in the field and was batting below the Mendoza line

Unless the benching was meant to motivate him
The move made absolutely no sense as Felix was brought over from the Cubs to get ABs and work things out like Jones and Markakis before him.
What did we have to lose by starting Pie, games? In all honestly, even if Felix had hit his ceiling, his efforts wouldn’t have been enough to change any outcomes, and it’s not like wins/losses matter for our team anyway.

OK, Bases loaded
We have 4 innings left for the bullpen, which by my calculations means the Orioles need to score 47 more runs to put this one out of reach.

I know this sounds crazy
But I think Jones should go on the 15-day DL.
It hurts, it sucks, but this is the same injury as he had in April and I want him to get 100% healthy so this doesn’t linger.
It also solves the OF logjam temporarily, and you can play Pie in CF and Reimold in LF every day.
Not so crazy
That’s probably the other half of the Rich Hill move
Sidney [Ponson] is the only person I've ever coached who has more languages than pitches.
- Mike Flanagan
That is crazy.
I stopped paying attention as soon as you said “Jones should go on the DL.” I think I blacked out for a second as soon as I read that.

i'm saying this right now..
It’s unacceptable that our pitchers come out after 90-some pitches.
If it’s because they’re spent, that’s a bullshit excuse at this point.
If it’s because we’re scared of triple digit pitch counts… that’s retarded too
Did you see Guthrie's last inning?
I wouldn’t want him in there.

lol! i get sarcasm!
to keep your theme, you’re sooo right.. every pitcher in baseball is capped at 95 pitches. if they go to 120 their arms pop off.
I just don't buy into all that Dusty Baker bullshit.
It ruins arms. I’d prefer Guthrie keep his.
Now when Eaton or Hendrickson are out there, screw those guys, let them throw 150 pitches. They aren’t part of the future. Guts hopefully is.

Sure, I respect that thought..
On the other hand, it’s also important for our starting pitchers to occasionally suck it up and stretch it to a whopping 6 innings so that we don’t overuse our bullpen.
I can see that.
But I don’t think tonight was the night. Guts barely got out of there intact.

And we’ll be back with the LOVELY totals.
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
Amber to Izturis "How does it feel to make KC use 4 pitchers in this 4 game series"?
Dear Amber. Newsflash. We used 4 pitchers too in this 4 game series. Not sure what her point of advantage was.

so, it's kind of funny...
izturis had such a good day. i was just looking at his platoon splits earlier and he has some preposterous numbers numbers…like an OPS over 1.000? who’da thunk?

He's hitting better than I was expecting he would
After last year though, I was going to be happy with good D and anything over .200
Eh
lets make no mistake about it, hes a horrible hitter. But the thing is he slaps singles on a pretty consistent basis, never strikes out, and plays some mean D. Those combine to create an illusion that hes a good baseball player. As a result, I love the guy
