Toronto Blue Jays at Baltimore Orioles, Jul 10, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
Bet you didn't know the Orioles are 4 games over .500 at home.
Bet you didn't know the Orioles are closer to the Blue Jays than the Blue Jays are to 3rd place Tampa Bay.
Bet you didn't know the Blue Jays' starter tonight is a University of Maryland alumni who's from Dunkirk, MD.
Bet you did know Jason Berken hasn't won a game since his debut.
Bet you did know I ran out of ideas for this GameThread about 3 sentences ago.

Ir I’m Jays, hell yeah. The brewwer have to be nuts do that. Braun is a stud, cheap, and under control for many seasons. Gallardo is no Holladay but he’s quite good and cheap. Rios is a bad contract. If the Brewers want Halladay, they start with Escobar and build a package from there.

Jones is not MBP
Not that anyone else is either.

Matt Albers is making a case for himself.
And Luke’s had a nice night at the plate.

I cut him from my fantasy team ages ago (it's a shallow league, only 8 teams)
his plate discipline is almost non existant, some people think his june slump is over, but his slugging % is still way down, I hope he gets hot in the second half, but he hasn’t shown any reason to think that will happen his K/BB is pretty bad

Speaking of his slugging
I cannot remember his last HR…

Of course
as soon as I cut him he at least started getting hits again, but I added Werth who it seems hits a homer almost every game…
His last homer was 6/13, and then you have to go all the way back to 5/26 and then from there if you keep going back he was actually f’ing awesome…but over the last month and a half he’s been mediocre

Cause he swings at shit. Reimold need to teach him how to work a count.
by Johnny_S on Jul 10, 2009 9:27 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Someone should make him just not swing for a whole game
to see what happens, I bet he’d get at least one or two walks…

Ok, Luke and MelMo get on base.
Then let’s see if Wieters can make some magic happen.

wow!...I could have sworn we won this game...?
I was telling myself all day well at least the O’s won today…then I check on the site later and …BAM…they lost…? and the sad thing is I was actually on the game thread today. Strange…

I picked a good night to teach my mother how to score
Nothing hard. Very boring game. Two runs. No sacrifices.
I picked a bad game to go to for the last game I’ll see with my brother before he moves to LA :( .
Give me credit though, I was only 36 hours without wisdom teeth,
