Brian?!
I totally missed yesterday’s game… Roberts hurt his leg?? Blahhhhh, dammit. Here’s hoping he doesn’t miss too many games.
Foul ball off his bat hit him on the shin
He tried to gut it out but they pulled him for Andino shortly after. My guess is its not that serious and he’ll be back in a day or two.

Is Wieters going to be catching today?

And the Lord knows that Dave isn't foolish!

I sick of seeing Mora.
I mean, he’s played HOW many times this week? It’s ridiculous. Wiggy is doing much better than him. All Mora does it complain and then he doesn’t actually do anything when he gets playing time.

AGREE!!!
I like Mora but he is not playing as good as Wiggy. Is Trembley’s call and he seems like he is afraid of his players.

that's a shitastic lineup
pie izturis mora and andino all at the same time. thankfully we arent seeing moeller in there as well. I love Dino and Izzy and all that, but cant we at least put Wiggy in there at 2nd so I feel like maybe we have a chance to get a hit off of Halladay?
Matt Wieters can get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop in under one lick.
I thought Gary mentioned during yesterday's game that Luke was something like 6 for 12 off of him.
But he’s so ICE COLD he couldn’t even hit against the Tigers. So yeah, I’m predicting we have little to no offense this afternoon. Jones, Markakis, Huff, and Wieters. That’s 4 guys out of 9 that have the higher chance of producing. And Pie hasn’t been doing awful, so I actually think he’ll have some hits. Other than that, you’re probably looking at your average 1 for 4, 1 for 5.
"He's a gazelle." -Adam Jones on Nolan Reimold.
dino, luuke and wiggy all have decent numbers against halladay. so i get why dino and luke are in the lineup that doesn’t explain why mora is playing
Well, I mean, you kinda HAVE to put Dino in there either way, with Brian hurt and all.
Unless you were to put in Wiggy, but that’s too difficult for Dave.
Luke is hot against Halladay, but he’s also currently ice cold. I though facing the Tigers would help him heat up, but apparently it didn’t. So… yeah. Not sure how this is gonna go.
"He's a gazelle." -Adam Jones on Nolan Reimold.
No offense, to Williams, Hunter or Durham.....
…..but I really wish they were doing the “Why Not?” Orioles on Monday. I’m sure if I was 80 I’d be more excited about meeting players who played for the Orioles 50 years ago.
Heading back to Baltimore August 10th-12th! I will sign your flat item (no personalization)
