PrintAtlanta Braves at Baltimore Orioles, Jun 12, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
We've had a habit of kick-starting the Braves into pennant runs in recent years, so let's see if that happens again!

I have a good feeling tonight
The bats will come back. I just hope the pitching holds up
Brandon Snyder, 1B. Remember that name.
There were two orioles on my porch this afternoon
I’m hoping it was a sign.

Does that mean we forfeit
because we can only field seven orioles?

No, it means we start winning, I think.
The last time I can remember seeing an Oriole was like 1989.

Once again, though, we get an incomprehensibly stupid lineup from Diamond Dave.
Mora still 5th. But apparently we have to get Oscar Salazar some work…so he gives Nolan his 3rd game off in what, 10 games? Preposterous.

he swings at balls off the plate
like somebody at Norfolk. And then takes pitches on the outside corner. ugh. Again, this team with runners on and two outs. Done deal.
And he's one of the few guys to have seen Hanson at all.
From playing at Norfolk.

Because Diamond Dave is turning into Sam Perlozzo
Right before our eyes.

He's never been good.
He is slightly more intuitive with the bullpen than Perlozzo. But other than that it’s the same shit. Clueless manager who lucked up.
The Press is intimidated by Trembley. They are afraid to ask him why.
Brandon Snyder, 1B. Remember that name.
Who's going to ask?
The ONE guy at The Sun left?

The worst part is this is Nolan's 3rd day off in like 8 days. There is no answer for this.

yea seriously...
screw players needing off days. Look at what Cal did. That is one way in which we lose every Sunday game. Let the starters play, even if they whine for an off day (but do they?)
Cal was an exception.
There are very, very few guys who can get through an MLB season without needing a day off at some point.

exactly
there’s too much of this being popular with the players bullshit. if you hit, you play. it’s not the fucking manager’s job to be buddy buddy with every scrub that gets called up.
Bruce Cunningham and Zino said they can't ask Trembley tough questions about his
managerial moves because he will get made and black ball them or something.

I was against the McLouth trade originally but the Bucs got some good young talent
Which they will nurture and then trade to the MFY, PHN, Braves or Cubs
Brandon Snyder, 1B. Remember that name.
more importantly, they opened up a spot for McCutchen
who will also be traded to MFY, PHN, Braves or Cubs eventually…
Man, that Aramis Ramirez trade worked out really well for someone.
Not so much the Pirates, though.

Mora swinging like he is up from Norfolk. Ball out of the strike zone
The end is near for this proud man. He was a solid Oriole for many years. He is done folks. It is just Dave Trembley does not know it yet.

Is there some promotion tonight?
AJ bobblehead?

That's next Wednesday.

AJ Bobbleheads already showing up on Ebay.
How can that be when the promo is next Wednesday?

People are selling them before they actually get them.

Wow. I hope they get them.
One is up to $30 as of this morning. LOL

Floppy Hat Night. Someone earlier said they were of poor quality as compared to those given in the past

Because Trembley decided Wieters needs to bat 8th, I guess.
Don’t look for logic. You won’t find any. I mean, the question implied in your question is…why is Salazar even playing? Why is Salazar on the team?

Can't ask for much more than bases loaded with Dr. Jones coming up
If he can’t do it, no one can.

This what it is all come down too.
Hitting in the clutch. So far we have been unable to hit in the clutch.

happy truth
Arrieta two hits through six. Losing 1-0, getting out-pitched. Norfolk offense not the same without Reimold and Wieters.
These hitters seem to tense up in pressure situations.
Okay I will say it. They “nutt up”. Men on base makes them afraid to hit. Am I being to strong here? You know what I mean. That at bat by my favorite Oriole was embarressing for a ML player
Brandon Snyder, 1B. Remember that name.
I think it's mental.
When runners get on, it becomes “acceptable” to strike out or fly out. If Jones strikes out, he’s young. If he gets a hit, it’s “oh look at the upside.” If Mora gets an out, he’s old. If he gets a hit, it’s “oh look he’s a second half hitter.” The truth is that the Orioles have a history of being bad. After a while, it becomes the norm that they start to buy into the fact that they’re not very good.
That’s a managers fault. It’s a mindset.
That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever read.

I'm frustrated
I’m just trying to say that I wish Trembley would call somebody out – including Jones, Huff or one of our star players. I think the players feel comfortable with knowing that whatever happens, they tried and that there will be a game tomorrow.
Eh
I think the culture of losing plays a big role, but not as big as you’re implying.

I can't stand interleague
The Braves? Mets? Come on, we shouldn’t be playing these teams.

Yeah, it's pretty pointless.
But it makes money, so it’ll stick around until it doesn’t.

And it always will
Until they stop scheduling Chicago/Chicago, New York/New York, Los Angeles/Los Angeles, etc.

That's the worst part
It’s so aggravating that interleague stretches on forever as well. One series against the Nats would be fine, but that should be it.

Other teams can score runs.
Why can’t we???
"I don't have a hit-and-run sign, and I believe it's the worst play in baseball." - Earl Weaver
Hats off to the Mariners, A's, and Braves for being able to hit with men in scoring
position. They pull away from us in the late innings while we struggle at the plate with men on base.
I am done talking tonight.

I think I'd rather have Bill Hendrickson
of Hendrickson Home Plus on the mound
P.S. – Ginnifer Goodwin is hot.
"Take on Me" - a-ha
I'd take the girl on the right
Over Hendrickson.

i pretty much think the baltimore orioles are schmpuckpuss loseurs
and those two schmucks gary and buck can call games until they croack.
It feels like August started early this year.
The Orioles have at least waited until August most years during the past decade to start playing like this.
stop posting this pic!
