PrintI'm not sure how this one got posted on Sickles before here but it's time to rectify that situation. Chris Tillman will allegedly be up Wed to start.
They didn't officially confirm who would be up but they did say
Orioles manager Dave Trembley wouldn't officially announce Tillman as Wednesday's pitcher, but he said the club will call up somebody from the minors to make that start and who it is won't come as a surprise. It has been speculated for weeks that the major league debut of Tillman, who is 8-6 with a 2.70 ERA for Triple-A Norfolk, is imminent...Trembley said the Orioles have no plans to go with a six-man rotation, and he expects Wednesday's starter to remain with the club.

Well, hell.
It’s might be possible to get that day off because Wednesday is 5% how busy Tuesday is. I’m already planning on welcoming home the team tomorrow, and probably taking in that 12:35 game on Thur,
This is great news for the organization. I can’t stress how much I recommend making it there if you can. I love seeing a guy’s first start; it could be the start of anything, from a flame out to a hall of famer. You could see our future World Series MVP.

I am so happy
that I could run naked through Eutaw street….
…….or else I could just be happy watching the game.

I am pumped to see Tillman come up
But saddened because we still have Huff and Mora.

Smart
The O’s played it smart to not let Tillman go up against the Yankees or Red Sox, its kind of ironic though that he’ll be against Greinke though.

Quick Q
Does Tillman’s promotion mean Brian Matusz will be promoted to AAA?

If Hill stays up, Berken would fill the spot at Triple AAA
If Berken stays up and Hill fails to clear waivers, maybe.
doubt it
Current management doesn’t really believe in promoting people that quickly. He’ll most likely finish the year in AA no matter what.

Actually
there’s already a fanshot of the exact same story on here. I think it was up before sickels had the story.
Huh, It appears you're right
Upon looking carefully getxstoked broke the news on Camden Chat the night before. And yes it was posted before the post on Sickels. Nice spotting NickMarkaces.
Comparison
If you never seen him in person, he looks a lot like Chris Carpenter, hopefully he can be like the Cy Young Carpenter.

this year's carpenter
would be fine
