Baltimore Orioles at Tampa Bay Rays, May 4, 2009 7:08 PM EDT
The season hasn't started off all too great for Tampa Bay, but they've got enough talent (obviously) to get back in the thick of things -- y'know, if you're one who thinks the thick of things start showing up around 25 games in.
The Orioles have been miserable lately. I'm just saying I've been watching (at least until I can't watch any more), but I literally have nothing new to say and am struggling to find ways to be positive. I get the future, but the present is rotten.

Don't worry man.
Only 138 more games left.
"Daddy, is Hevan like BIRDLAND?"
"No son, Hevan is BIRDLAND."
Isn't it sad...
that it is the beginning of May and they are playing like they do in August.. giving up! I will continue to support them, attend games and lie to my children that one day we will be a contender or even finish .500.
One day we will....in 2011
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
it's funny that you mention it
because I was just thinking earlier today that I actually can’t think of one thing to say about this team. No one thing. And that isn’t an exaggeration.
I’m smart, not a dummy. ~Adam Jones
I'm with you on that.
That’s how I felt before the season started and with the exception of the first week or so…that’s how I have felt since.

Tough sell on this game with the hockey on at the same time. I’ll check in off and on, though.

I know, I shouldn’t say that, but it IS an SBN site at least.
I’ll check in between periods and between commericals on “24”.
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
This team is miserable to watch right now
No doubt about it.
Reimold and Wieters will be here soon, and some more interesting pitching isn’t far behind, but it’s ugly right now.
I’ll be paying closer attention to the farm tonight: Hill, Arrieta, and Britton are starting for Norfolk, Bowie, and Frederick respectively.
I'd love to see Hill look good
and get up to Baltimore soon. Maybe he’ll suck, but at least he’ll be something different.
I’m smart, not a dummy. ~Adam Jones
He's still a couple weeks away, unfortunately
And that’s a assuming that his rehab continues to go smoothly.
Silver Lining
I, for one, am counting the days until the Wieters/Reimold revolution.
I figure between the nine plus legitimate starting pitchers (note: Hendrickson and Eaton are not included, of course), I should be confident that the O’s will, in the next season or two, find a five-man rotation worth of leading a major league club onto the field. I can be patient for that.
I mean, I can be patient for Reimold and Wieters as well, but by all accounts they’re not just ready to go at this moment, but they’d clearly be significant upgrades over those currently occupying their positions. As I heard some guy on the radio say this weekend, you see a lot of other clubs relying on their young guys and finding great success, but the O’s are worried about ruining their psyche. It’s pretty frustrating.
"BJ on the BE" - Kierkegaard
The minor league players keep me interested at this point.
If the O’s could display some situational hitting when men are in scoring position they could overcome some of those one run loses and win some games. They totally forget how to hit when RBI chances are out there.
But hey folks, just keep watching the youngsters in the minors. That will keep you focused.
"They are who we thought they were"-Dennis Green
I ask this question in all sincerity
I wonder what it’s like psychologically to be a really good, in not exceptional, player like Markakis, Roberts and Jones playing on a team that may in fact lose 100 or more games this year? Do you, by August, just phone it in? Do you hope to be traded? Do such players as this ever go over to the pitching staff and just start screaming at them in clubhouse: Why can’t you SOB’s hold a f-ing lead? We’re getting plenty of f-iong runs for you, when are you going to get some batters out?
Etc.
Is there blame cast behind closed doors? Or are they consummate professionals and oblivious to the general suckitude of the team?
I'd have to think it wears on you
and they’d be only human to point fingers at the pitchers. Of course, that just makes a bad situation even worse.
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
I agree
It must be difficult. I think sometimes fans have the impression that “what players really want” is money; the biggest contract, the nicest car, etc. That the players (i.e. Markakis) should just be happy with all that money, win or lose. And maybe even start dogging it because they’re rich and who gives a damn.
My guess (and I’m just another fan) is that what most players really want, more than anything else, is to be better than anybody and win.
If you know you are good and the numbers are bearing that out, and you are on a team that is just horrific, it’s going to take a toll on you. You can’t play baseball forever, and at the back of their minds I would think these guys know that.
Think about it. You’ve worked on baseball your entire life, working like a dog, putting in the kind of time that most people don’t have the will to put in. You’re focused, you’re disciplined, you’re committed. You give things up that most people wouldn’t want to part with. You don’t know anything about anything other than baseball. Then you finally make it to the majors and you know from the beginning that you only have a few years to do what you’ve spent literally your whole life preparing yourself for — be good and win at the highest level. I think that’s why players hang on longer than they really should or come out of retirement. I think most people that play in the majors have – in addition to freakish talent – an equally freakish desire to win that would look to a normal person like fanaticism. It’s not the promise of money but the will to win that sustains you through high school, college and the bus leagues. If you went into baseball thinking of it as a get-rich-quick scheme, you quit because you find out it’s just too hard and the odds are too long and you probably just don’t have it.
It must be excruciating, after all that work and dedication, to be on a bad team. And even though part of the whole ethic of sports is “no I in team,” 162 games is a lot of games to be watching the same people around you screw the same things up. And if nothing changes year after year, well, you get Tejada not running out ground balls. There’s always the expectation that you won’t cause clubhouse problems, but I imagine it happens more often than we know and I think it’s understandable. Doesn’t help anybody though, as duck says.

Kazmir is pitching tonight.
Not Garza, according to the O’s and Rays’ sites.
1933 was a bad year
by Senatorrosewater on May 4, 2009 3:26 PM EDT reply actions
Eaton and Kazmir numbers are almost similar
Kazmire has pitched one more game, has 5 more innings and his ERA is better. However he has walked more, given up almost the same amount of hits, given up run more run and walked 10 more batters. Go get up Eaton!!!
"They are who we thought they were"-Dennis Green
It's all about talent
It would be pointless for Markakis, etc. to berate the pitching staff for its ineptitude. The pitching staff is trying hard. Their problem is not lack of motivation but lack of talent. So, relax. We knew going in that 2009 would be a grizzly season, one that we would be forced to endure in order to get to 2010 and 2011. At least we get to pick 5th this year and perhaps 4th next.
Let's see the conversation would go something like this....
Nick Markakis: What the hell is wrong with you guys? We were up by 2! Can’t you guys hold a 2-run lead for 3 freakin’ innings?
Jamie Walker, Brian Bass and George Sherrill, in unison: No.
And Nick would storm off, wondering why he signed that extension….
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
Hahah, duck you are funny
Well, I’m at a loss for words.. I guess I’ll offer up the old standard… The Orioles are not good at what they do
hahaha that’s fun to say
John tonight let it be Lowenstein
I wanna stay positive! And tonight, we have Adam Eaton vs. Kazmir...OK, so much for that.
The only positive thing I can think of about the Orioles is, er, this: I had jello today…
Go Caps!
"Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning." Churchill,1942-- a rebuilding year.
It's not the losing for me.
It’s the way that they lose. I’d be quite content to watch a competitive team battle it out night after night if they were just getting outclassed. Instead, I’m watching a team shut it down offensively & defensively while they wait for the pitching to implode. That’s no fun.
But I’m fine with taking one more blue chip stud in the next two drafts while the previous picks start showing up later this year.
I just keep telling myself that you have to hit rock bottom before you can start to improve. Right now feels about rock bottom – no lead is safe, Jeckyll & Hyde offense.
From the Land of Pleasant Living...
Huh?
They’ve lost a whole slew of one and two run games, it happens…I think everyone needs to take a deep breath and remember what Andy said at the beginning of the season…“It could get ugly, but we want people to be convinced by the end of the year that we have the foundation to contend”

since we have little to talk about
let’s talk about my dmb team. I just traded Ryan Braun for Dr. Jones. am I going to regret it?
ahh fantasy baseball chatter... well, let's see..
Braun’s early lingering injury concern.. you are getting rid of..but he is a monster hahah have you checked out Braun’s eyes??! I mean the dudes face is all eyes.. no wonder hes such a great hitter.. he sure can see that ball… will Jones deliver more steals? I would need to do a thorough player comparison to offer up anythin intelligent
good luck though
John tonight let it be Lowenstein
Damn there is nobody here tonight

His pitches have no deception what so ever. Flat and easy to launch they are.

If Melmo and Wigginton
Stop swinging at balls maybe we could out hit these guys tonight. B-Rob and Dr. Jones showed that a walk is as good as a hit.

Oh Zaun. So sad
When it leaves you. It leaves you quick.

I'm starting to wonder
if Moeller’s guaranteed to be the one to leave when The Deity gets promoted.

It will not matter what Zaun hits when Weiters is promoted.
Zaun may never see the field again unless it is a day game after a night game in the dog days. Plus Dempsey would go ballistic if his nephew is released for the Mole Guy.
"They are who we thought they were"-Dennis Green
I think today Adam Eaton is going to go 6 innings
and allow exactly one run for each of those innings.
7-8-9 hitters
really need to pick up the team tonight. I bet they have a say in the outcome.
"They are who we thought they were"-Dennis Green
They'll help us lose, sure
BY FAR the worst 7-8-9 in the league. Worse than NL teams using the pitcher, 40 points worse than the next worse AL team. Yup, that bad.

Gotta say Pens tonight
League wants it to go at least 6, and PIT is just playing better tonight.

Sloppy, sloppy game tonight so far by WAS
1-0 PIT, 3:00 left in th3 1st. Lucky not to be down 2-0

The Caps have been pretty outperformed in quite a few games lately
So I agree, it has to catch up to them at some point; that being said, another win wouldn’t surprise me.

I like how
MASN shows the pitch grips for the starter. Accept they missed one for Eaton…they didn’t show how he holds the gopher ball!

That was a really nice play by Eaton
and so far, we are on schedule for 1 ER per inning.

Yes, yes you did
I was too lazy to see who called that earlier – still pissed at the Caps and the refs. I need alcohol…
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
By my calculations
That means we will lose this game if we don’t score some more runs. The math is a little fuzzy, though.
Wow, what a way to start a game: I turned on ESPN for Sawx/Yerks on HD home theatre-- and saw Nicky go 3-run DONG!!
They stayed with the game through Longoria’s shot. But then they started moving their forking “Bonus Coverage” all over creation, making it impossible to follow any single game. Ice-holes. Especially now ,when they’ve got an NPL game on! Y’know, the loser league with the rule that every 9th batter has to be a joke? Who gives a sh*t?

Duck you should have know Campbell and Betts put out the memo

Brasher gets 6 games for a huge hit
That probably should have been 2 or 3 at the most. Brown performs the same hit on the Redwings Hudler and there is no suspension and that one drew blood. The fix is always on with Betts

Stupidity rather than a fix on that one
Wings are the flagship franchise, at least in the western conference. I figure Betts wants them in the finals.
You can't fix stupid. Stupid is forever.
Oh, I know, I know
It’s still frsutrating to watch in action. And the Caps are playing STUPID tonight.
Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.
And boy, speaking of jokes: Hwiggingggton is not batting his weight; Zaun's batting approximately half his.
And both are really depressing to see on an HD home theatre screen. Somehow, large and sharply defined, they look even worse.

That was horrible.

The greatest day in the history of DC's Channel 7, when Renee Poussaint gave the final score of the tape-delayed game...
at the end of the SECOND PERIOD.
The only time I’ve ever written to a TV station to complain. Me and, oh, 10,000 other viewers. Bitterly.

As though we silly fans, having had one of the great moments in American sports history stolen from us, were supposed to just “get over it”!
To their credit, Channel 7 actually answered my letter (which ended “If Channel 7 doesn’t watch Channel 7, why the hell should anyone else?”) with an apology. They did not fire renee Poussaint, however.

Well, my wife told me you look like a dork." Boo Teixeira guys.
Yeah I was figuring Wigginton could play LF and Andino DHing
Wigginton has played some LF although not a ton.
Pie is a lefty too
I hope they haven’t given up on him yet… Look at his peripherals…
BB 10%
K 27.8%
LD% 21.6%
These would all be career bests for Felix. He’s not doing great at the plate, but he’s doing way better than his BA and OBP suggest
I totally think
they gave up on him too soon. So weird, I thought they’d stick with him for awhile.
I’m smart, not a dummy. ~Adam Jones
i think both are right
.167 sucks, but it’s early.

OK, I'll admit it's early.

Jays Game
Did he hurt it making a diving catch in Toronto, or on a different play?
I saw him come up wringing his hand but I thought it was a turf burn.
because pee-ay is in the dawg house.
"Your wife told you to play in New York.
Well, my wife told me you look like a dork." Boo Teixeira guys.
Pie will have more opportunities. He is MacPhails project.
They are committed to him like they were to Dr. Jones in 2008. The fact that the bottom of the order is killing the team warrants them to play someone that has a clue at the plate. When they find that person or person’s they will let us know.

So I’m hoping him.
But I’m not sure there will be a save situation for an Orioles pitcher tonight.

He wants to pitch his way out of the league. I say let him do it so there will be no excuses later in the season

"Honestly, I get tired driving 26 miles. I couldn’t imagine running it." -- Huffy
That was a great job by Baez to prevent that 5th run.
Delays the inevitable a another couple of innings.
I hate this umpire
Not a bad call, but make it so we can see it, asshole.
Joe: "McLellan's on a two-second delay." Maybe he's umping for MLB.com-- nah, that'd be a 22 MINUTE delay.

So has the myth
That Dioner Navarro is a great young catcher who is an integral cog in the Rays young core been fully debunked by now?
This guy’s rep was built on two months of good hitting. He sucks.
He's the George Sherrill of catching
only with 2 months of good closing

I see no reason to move Baez to closer this season
This guy can come in and close down the other lineup for 2 or 3 innings is huge.

made the catch that saved Flat Brims ass and the O’s and the guy did not get a vote. Ty Wigginton and Eatons family voted for them and they got 5 and 1 percent respectively behind Nicky’s 94%.
