PrintFour days to the trade deadline. What will Andy do?
Sir Links-a-lot sez:
- Tillman on the way. getxstoked first broke the news in a fanshot on Saturday (the original source of the story was The Sun). Despite the fact that Diamond Dave won't confirm it, Tillman is now listed as Wednesday's probable starter on the Orioles' official website
- Despite some evidence that Jeremy Guthrie pitches better to catchers not named Matt Wieters, Trembley has no plans to pair him specifically with ZAUN in the future (mlb.com)
- It's a little light out there in terms of Oriole news. But hey, you can read the Beaver County Times' profile of high-A Frederick pitcher Nathan Nery, whom I've never heard of. He was our 18th-round draft pick this year.
- Former Oriole southpaw Érik Bédard has an ERA of 2.82 this year and a WHIP of a measly 1.19. As of Sunday, he also has his second trip to the DL (mlb.com), after coming off it less than three weeks ago
- Our starter tonight, Rich Hill, grew up in Milton, MA, and would have liked to have pitched at Fenway. But it was not to be. Nonetheless, he's "confident he'll settle down." Hmm, is that what they're calling the trip to Norfolk these days?

yeah I'm up!
An hour later, but i’m up..The dog always gets me up around 6.. Anyway nice articles ZK, I especiallly love reading the minor league ones. And personally if Guthrie pitches better with Zaun why not make him his personal catcher? It has worked well in the past for some catchers. Steve Carlton is a perfect example, he at his best with his personal catcher tim mccarver.. Thats the first example that comes to mind, but i’m sure theres more..I’m not saying guthrie will turn in to l hall of famer, but it can’t hurt to try.. Give it a try trembley. After all, we know he likes to rest Wieters..
We all make mistakes in life. That takes nothing away from the good we've done in the time we were here. Thanks Steve Mcnair For Everything 1973-2009
I agree
When the Atlanta Braves had that run in the 90’s, Javy Lopez never caught Gregg Maddux, Eddie Perez was his personal catcher

AH!
Either way, I can care less, to be honest with you.
RICH HILL DID IT. HE SAID HE CAN CARE LESS. No, Rich, you COULDN’T care less.

I didn't like him already...
Now it’s personal.
"We're not the other teams' farm system." - Andy MacPhail
No...
Just quoted hideously out-of-context:
"There’s a lot of naysayers out there and people that say they can’t do it. I’ve had a lot of success and proving myself up here at this level and been successful, so it’s probably some jealously or something where they just don’t get it. I could care less really."
Any reasonable interpretation of these comments would be that he “could care less” about what the “naysayers” have to say about him.
Of course Rich has a lot of naysayers right now, and not without good reason. But I can’t imagine he would be able to turn things around if he obsessed over the negative things people have said about him.
"If you know how to cheat, start now." - Earl Weaver
First off, in that situation as well "couldn't" would be the correct thing to say.
That being said, though, that’s not where I quoted that from.
Saying you could care less means you care. Saying you couldn’t care less means you don’t care. In both situations, he meant to say the latter.

Ahh...
I did not understand that you were playing grammar police in your original post. I thought you were trying to use the quote to suggest that Hill “couldn’t care less” about his performance on the mound, which is why I assumed it was out-of-context quote.
It seems a fairly small grammatical error, and could easily be chalked up to poor transcription. In any case, I believe Rich Hill cares, I’m just not sure he can pitch at the major league level successfully.
"If you know how to cheat, start now." - Earl Weaver
Haha no worries. I figured this was the case becuase I was a little confused.
Rich Hill just needs to… Yeah. Blah. He’s not a very good pitcher, to play the role of Mrs. Obvious.

Crap. Does this mean I will be watching Jason Berken pitch on T-Shirt Tuesday?
I mean, I can accept not getting to see the beginning of The Future™’s career, but is it too much to ask to see a Brad Bergesen game for once? This will be my sixth game this year, and I’ve already seen Guthrie three times and Rich Hill once (the other was KOJI, in case you were curious).
It could be worse, though. It could be raining could be Mark Hendrickson getting the start.
To think, the rotation started the year with Hendrickson, Alfredo Simon, and ADAM EATON. Huh. You know what, I’m fine with seeing Berken; he beats the hell out of the other three! Well, kind of.
...Behold, a pale horse. The man that sat upon it was Wieters, and hell followed with him.
"BJ on the BE" - Kierkegaard
I empathize with you
Last year, I saw two Garrett Olson starts, a Brian Burres start, and a Rad Liz start. There may have been a game or two more sprinkled in, but those four were so harrowing that I’ve forgotten all else.
We went 3-1 in those games, oddly enough, but it was more attributable to timely hitting than anything.

me too
odd, we must have been at the same exact games.
Matt Wieters can get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop in under one lick.
quite possibly
although washington isnt exactly a decent opponent. took baez’s hit to win the game tho….

I saw him beat
Philly in Philly and Toronto in B’more. A bit better than the Gnats.

what are the odds….
by twistedlogic on Jul 27, 2009 10:49 AM EDT up reply actions
100%
he has all of 3 wins, we’ve both been to 2 of them, so at leats one of those games had to over lap. Technically the odds of us both seing him Toronto weren’t 100%, but the odds of us being at 1 of the same games was.
In summation, Rich Hill is a bad pitcher.

i didnt actually see him WIN against washington. baez got the win (and a hit!!), but hill pitched well enough to win tho.

I think Hill can win tonight, I'll be there.
Last year was real bad. If you look through my scorebook you’d think that I was SEEKING OUT Burress and Olsen. I never saw Guthrie pitch last year. I saw Alfredo Simon’s first start, a Liz star, which we won. Everything else was Brian and Garrett.

The person who posted the clip seems to be a Treadwell apologist
which is fine. But I’ve seen the movie and that’s not the conclusion that I came to – sure, the bear was hungry and hungry animals are desperate and unpredictable, but these are wild animals who do not have the benefit of living with humans for 30,000 years like domesticated animals do.

Is that Treadwell?
I was in the NH woods this past weekend. We found a wild blueberry patch in an old field with bear scat throughout. My buddy was joking about him. I told him if a pissed bear comes wandering in, he should sacrifice himself Treadwell-style so the rest of us could skedaddle.

I bought my sister a Mr. T key chain that has five buttons on it, and each one has a different Mr. T saying.
I also moved this weekend and have no internet access at home for the time being. It’s pretty much a fate worse than death.
I love that I made plans to go to Wednesday’s baseball game weeks ago and now it works out that Chris Tillman will be there. It kind of stink that he’ll be going against Greinke and thus less likely to get a win, but we can at least take solace in the fact that the Royals are 10-10 in Greinke’s starts. They have lost in games where he has allowed 1 run three times, 2 runs twice, 3 runs three times, 4 runs once, and 5 runs once.

good ol Erik Bedard
Mariners were dumb to keep him. Should have traded him when he was “healthy” two weeks ago. Wonder what type of contract he’ll get this offseason. I’m guessing a one year deal (maybe two) with a contender-type of team so he can prove hes not made of glass. Any team would be crazy to give him a long term deal.
i think we should trade all of our top prospects for him
i mean…it’d be a never-before-seen-trade…….

How about...
Adam Jones, Chris Tillman, Kam Mickolio, George Sherrill, and Tony Butler for him? Nah, that’d be INSANE. Maybe i’d do Butler and Sherrill for Erik.

Hill on the mound?
Chalk up a big L tonight. I might not even watch the game with that turd arm on the mound.
Things to look forward to this week:
1) NOLAN REIMOLD day on T-shirt Tuesday. I still need to talk one of my friends into going so I don’t arrive solo/like a loser at the game.
2)Tillman Day on Wednesday. Nuff said? Is Wieters catching Wednesday?
3) We are playing the Royals, a team arguably worse than we are.
Arguably?
Johnny, I understand that the road trip was ugly, but we were playing the MFY, PHN, and a contending Chicago team. Kansas City is a mess of a team, and even worse than they look when you consider the fact that they started 18-11 before the bottom dropped out. They’ve employed Sir Sidney, Bruce Chen, Ryan Freel, Looie Hernandez, Tony Pena Jr., and Yuniesky Betancourt (recently acknowledged as possibly the worst everyday player in MLB). Not to put too fine a point on it, but KC is worse than we are. I’m hoping for a series win at least.
"The United States is the New York Yankees of countries...powerful and respected until the year 2000." - Homer J. Simpson
I meant arguably more along the lines of
Royals fans would argue against us. Considering they are only 4 more losses and have Greinke I thought I’d throw it out there that its not an unreasonable argument. We definitely have more potential than the Royals, but I just have a hard time saying the sentence “We are better than…” right now, unless the next two words are “the Natinals”.
Just my opinion though.
by John Stephens on Jul 27, 2009 10:26 AM EDT up reply actions
yea...
i’d say any team that has an equally bad or worse record than we do and does not have to play the Red Sox, Yankees, and Rays a billion times a year is worse than us. The O’s arent good, but playing in the AL East can make almost any team seem worse then they are.

My upcoming rotation
In no particular order, because I’m too lazy to look up the current order…
Guthrie
Iceberg
Hernandez
Tillman
not Hill, not Berken (Waters?)
Send Berken down to work on things. Try to get Hill through waivers, or see if we can get a spare part for him. He’s not going to be useful in the bullpen with his control issues. If we lose him, too bad. These two have been evaluated, and it is time for them to work on their issues. They are both approaching Eaton territory (although nobody gave up base hits like Eaton). I don’t hate them but I think it’s time we give someone else a shot, and to set the example that we are expecting a sub 6 ERA from our starters. We have plenty of talent waiting in the wings.
"On my tombstone just write, THE SOREST LOSER THAT EVER LIVED." -- Earl Weaver
how soon upcoming?
I told my friend today that next year’s opening day rotation would probably look like this:
Guthrie
Bergesen
Tillman
Hernandez
Arrieta/Patton/Erbe
I think one of those last three break camp with the club and get some starts. Berken goes to the pen, Hill goes away, and Koji goes to the pen. I think it’s possible that two of those last three break camp with the club and one of them fills the long relief position. Maybe I’m rushing them a bit still?

Arfrieta won't get to AAA this year, I'm afraid.

I figured Matusz would need (or be required to take) another year in the minors. So we’re on the same page.

I wouldn't be surprised if Matusz gets a September callup
He’s got a major league contract, and he hasn’t been challenged in the minors yet. He’s been putting up video game numbers at Frederick and Bowie.
And he’s older than Tillman, so it wouldn’t be rushing him ;)

i think thats assuming he wins the O's cookoff
by twistedlogic on Jul 27, 2009 3:03 PM EDT up reply actions 1 recs
Honestly
I think he starts opening day just b/c he’s been around longest. I don’t think he’s the best pitcher out of that group but I do think that they give him the ball opening day. After that, who cares.
Don't let the sunshine fool ya. - Townes Van Zandt
And
what’s so confusing? “Guthrie?” The fact that Guthris is on top? Or are you really confused at all? I have a suspicion that you aren’t actually confused you just don’t agree with me. But I can’t say that I disagree with your rotation either.
Don't let the sunshine fool ya. - Townes Van Zandt
I'm confused as to why...
someone would put a +5 ERA guy who gives HRs away like they are candy on Halloween as their opening day pitcher. At the beginning of the year, I understood people’s stubbornness to back Guts at all costs (I mean the guy was good for us in the past). At this point I do not understand it. 3E has proven he has the stuff and has been great. I do not understand, as it stands right now, why he would not be the opener.
And I am confused as to why you are being so sassy.
by John Stephens on Jul 27, 2009 3:47 PM EDT up reply actions
+1 for "sassy"
I think that, if by some miracle, Guthrie turns it around and has a solid rest of the season, that he’ll be the OD pitcher due to his veteranosity, but should things stay the way they are, they have to go with Bergy.
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
Next year is more likely
than a comeback for Guts this year, I reckon.
by fishoutawata on Jul 27, 2009 4:31 PM EDT up reply actions
I can appreciate the use of sassy.
Mainly b/c I hate when people say, “I’m confused…blah, blah, blah…”
I just threw Guts up there b/c I think the team will (right or wrong) throw him out there opening day. I don’t necessarily agree with his suckage either but that’s what I think will happen. Diamond Dave will be all, “we gotta protect these young guys from opening day.” Even though Bergesen’s been up since May of the previous year.
Don't let the sunshine fool ya. - Townes Van Zandt
Didn't mean to poke a nerve on the pet peve
Just wanted to know why you thought Guts would be the OD pitcher. Now I do.
Yeah I could definitely see Dave using that logic, that is, if he is the manager next year.
by John Stephens on Jul 27, 2009 4:18 PM EDT up reply actions
Sorry, I'm thinking in the next week or two
I agree with Koji to the pen, he doesn’t have the durability to start, esp outdoors in the summer, and I’m thinking that we’ll deal Sherrill and/or Baez, creating bullpen need.

As I pointed out on my blog
Bruce hasn’t won an MLB game since game #162 of the 2005 season (Oct. 2), when the O’s beat the Rays 6-2 for his career-high 13th W. The only O’s who played that day and are still with the team are Memlo and Chris Ray (well, sorta). No TB player from that game is still with them (Crawford had the day off).
Chen must be salivating over the chance to oppose Rich Hill.

Anyone going to the Baysox game today? Matusz!

Me!
I saw his 8 IP, 1 H start and decided I wanted to see him pitch as much as possible before he goes to Norfolk.
anybody know a good pitching pickup for fantasy?
my team has dropped off the map lately with nearly my entire original pitching staff on the DL
my team is attrocious so take no advice from me
But i’ve taken to picking up whatever decent starter is pitching against the Nats and it’s working out so far.
This is probably a good strategy.

Did anybody else almost get obliterated by that storm yesterday?
I was out driving right when the worst of the hail hit in Owings Mills. Had my wipers on max speed and it was coming down so fast I had zero visibility.
I avoided hitting a tree while going about 10 mph on a 40mph road just by virtue of being in the left lane. The tree was down over the right lane and I did not see it until it was right next to me. Farther down the road, a tree was blocking both lanes in my direction and I had to dip around the double yellow to get by.
I thought I was going to die, or at least get in some accident and be stuck with horrendous auto insurance premiums for life. When I was little, I was afraid of snakes and tornadoes and I’d have nightmares about that. Now that I’m older, I have nightmares about high insurance premiums. It’s weird.

Not sure if anyone watches the NFL
but Vick was reinstated today. He can partake in training camp and preseason stuff. However, he can only participate in the last 2 preseason games and won’t be able to play till week 6.
If you could stand the media circus (and if Burress was actually going to get to play this year) you coudl pick up a couple athletes on the cheap this year.

We should make up a team
of current players that have been charged and convicted of crimes. Stuff other than DUI. They usually knock that one out in the first year or two in the league.

Does Ray Lewis count?
He was charged, but not convicted….

I think so...
I hate to get too free with our team but I think Ray definitely has a place on this team. Along with the receiver that killed someone with his bentley. And wasn’t there a Rams LB that did the same about 6-7 years ago?

Have they announced what it was dependent on?
I hope it requires a shitload of stuff for him to do (public service announcements which he’s apparently said he won’t do – asshole) and he either doesn’t get it done or fails a drug test or something else retarded.
In case it’s not obvious already I’m a dog lover…
I don't want to get too far into this...
but he’s done the time. More time than 99% of the people convicted of the same thing probably do. They’ve made an example out of him. I agree, he should probably be under a microscope but I don’t have a problem with him not wanting to do a public service announcement.
Don't let the sunshine fool ya. - Townes Van Zandt
There are other penalties than jail time when you operate a criminal enterprise for multiple years in a row.
If I did that and get caught you think I’d get my old job back? Don’t think so.
And just curious why are you ok with him not doing a public service announcement? You don’t think it’s a reasonable thing to expect of somebody who does that and then claims to see the evil in his ways and be reformed? People expect that of DUI convicts – what’s the difference?
If your
job was professional football I think you would. Ray Lewis did.
Don't let the sunshine fool ya. - Townes Van Zandt
I was just asking…I don’t know the facts jack. Did they order him to and he won’t? I mean, I think the animal lovers have grandstanded enough.
Don't let the sunshine fool ya. - Townes Van Zandt
How exactly is it grandstanding to differentiate between somebody being convicted of running a criminal enterprise for multiple years and somebody who may or may not have been involved in a single incident or had a DUI once? I think the intent in the crimes are entirely different and should be treated as such.
well, i gotta go
I’ll say that I think it was really shitty what he did and he probably deserved his jail time. But I’m also in the camp that believes he’s served his time let him be.
we can pick this up tomorrow if you please.
