PrintTampa Bay Rays at Baltimore Orioles, Sep 15, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
Tampa Bay came into Balitmore having lost 11 games straight. So much for that.
Baltimore came in having won two of their last three. Now they've lost two straight.
There's simply no way to build much drama for a Tuesday night game in September between an Orioles team trying to avoid 100 losses and a Tampa Bay team that doomed its thin playoff hopes with a two-week-long losing skid. But there are some items of interest to watch in this game.
Tampa Bay starts Jeff Neimann, who quietly, if not anonymously, has won 12 games with an ERA under 3.60 and a WHIP of 1.28 He's actually pretty good, and has been the one pitcher in the last month the Rays could count on.
Baltimore starts Jason Berken, who's 4-11 record is almost the evil inverse of Neimann's. His ERA of 6.02 is ugly, as is his WHIP of 1.71. He's gone 5.1 IP his last two outings, but the last one was an odd case. Yes, he had served up 8 hits, but only 1 ER and was at only 85 pitches. So, even if Jason Berken does well tonight, don't look for him to get out of the 6th. -duck

I think he’s bringing his Z-Game tonight.

If someone can dig up
ZAUN’s third strike swing from his (I think) second at-bat last night, its worthy of a fanshot. I was there and it was one of the worst swings I’ve ever seen. made Kevin Millar’s emergency hack look like Ted Williams.

With the worst cleanup hitters in the majors
this could be a tight race to the bottom

Our starting pitching is just as bad, and we’re down 2 productive starters.

It's 7:15, and I already have no reason to watch this game.
So, let’s play “Who Sucks Worse?”
A. David Hernandez
B. Jason Berken
C. Brian Bass
Jim Palmer: "I said to Nolan, 'Why do you run every ball out like that?' and he said, 'Why wouldn’t you?' "
Man, that was a majestic foul ball off

Not a strike, douchebag.
Even Palmer disagrees.

I listened for a while. Until 7:20 or so. About 15 minutes too long.
Jim Palmer: "I said to Nolan, 'Why do you run every ball out like that?' and he said, 'Why wouldn’t you?' "
That would be Jason Berken

Hey y'all
I’m doing all sorts of shit at the house so can’t spend this lovely game with you, but I just have to comment on how much I love Felix Pie excitedly smacking Screech’s ass when he made that last catch.

He is incredibly lovable.
Were you watching for is monstrous foul ball? One of these days he’s going to start regularly connecting and it’s going to be beautiful.
I don't think I saw that
But I agree, once he gets there it’s going to be awesome.

The O's have come ALL the way back.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
I have to say
After that shitty first inning, Berken has done a good job holding them so the O’s had a chance to get back. I know Berken isn’t the most talented dude in the world but I can’t help but like him. Unlike that shit David Hernandez.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
I was just thinking the same thing.
I’d like to see him go out there for the 6th and see if he can put another one or two scoreless up there.
Honestly I think both Berken and Hernandez have really good stuff. I just don’t know if either of them will be able to put it together.
When Hernandez first came up
I thought his stuff looked very good. But I feel like he just gets worse every time I see him. Those HR infuriate me. I hope he gets it together but he looks hopeless out there.

So that's their ROY guy, huh?

"I feel like I learned more in eight major league starts than I did in three years of college," -- Brian Matusz
so only 1 out of 3 heralded Rice pitchers turned into something. Townsend is a bust. Humber is just about a bust. Neimann is decent minus tonight.
"You don’t EVEN KNOW who birdman is!"
ok, he’s been awesome except tonight. 128 ERA+ is pretty darn good.
"You don’t EVEN KNOW who birdman is!"
He's their Bergesen
It would have been nice to have a showdown between him and Reimold. That would make some nice ESPN content.

Chris Ray warming in the pen
that’s just great.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
You think he comes out for the 7th?
I sort of think he should. The bullpen is awful and he’s really pretty much rolling right now.
I hope so
He looks good and the pen could use the rest. I don’t know what his pitch count is though.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
wow
according to Gameday he has 77 pitches. That can’t possibly be right, can it? Through 6?
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
I don't know.
He’s been really rolling since the first and the runs happened REALLY fast in the first.
maybe it is
He has zero walks.
77 pitches – 52 strikes. Damn.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
I'll accept nothing less than a complete game.

and he had about 20 more pitches than he does now after six.

Actually
his last start against Boston he went 5.1 and allowed 4 runs on 95 pitches. The start before, against the Yankees, he was taken out after 5.1 and allowed one run on 85 pitches. I just checked. I didn’t see that NYY game but the Boston game he was laboring. He’d walked four.
I was combining the memory of both of those starts I think.

single off of Izzy's glove
it probably would have been an infield hit even if he’d stopped it though. He really laid out for it.

Berken got his act together big time after the first inning
and our savior got a two rbi single.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
Really?
I think he’s one of the 2 candidates right now (Mauer) and people love Yankees. He’s at the top of every discussion I’ve seen.
Hands down?
Interesting, since he’s barely mentioned in the debate…
And he was HORRIBLE the whole time A*Roid was out.
another claim brought to out of thin air you by osfan21
btw i’m still waiting on the completion of your statistical analysis of tejada and his buds.
I don't get why you think that's so hard.
Is it difficult to find out who he works out with in the off season or who he grew up playing with? Doesn’t seem that challenging to me.
And as far as Yankees claiming Jeter is their MVP it’s been in every interview given over the last month about Jeter.
And he's the Yankees hits leader
Also, the Yankees outs leader.

I really wish they would have left him in. Let the kid pitch.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
Yeah I sort of don't see the point of taking him out.
I really don’t feel like anybody else is more likely to hold this lead…so why not let him see if he can battle through?
There's no reason
Other than Dave Trembley likes to use 7 pitchers every game.

Fucking Trembley
He never lets his guys work out of any trouble. Berken has been sailing. He’s at 83 fucking pitches.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
You know
Trembley takes a lot of flak and I have defended him a lot. But his quick hook is getting fucking tired.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
It may not be his choice
We don’t know what his orders from MacPhail are. That’s pretty close to the pitch count he had against NYY.

I don't know that I buy that
Berken isn’t in any danger of being shut down. He pitched about 150 innings in each of the past two years and he’s only at 130 this year with less than a month left.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
How else to explain the 5.1 IPs the last two outings?

by duck on Sep 15, 2009 9:19 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
I don't know man
Except it’s not actually the last two outings. In Boston he needed to be pulled. But I get what you’re saying.
I think Dave panics and pulls his pitchers at the first sign of trouble. He didn’t do it with Matusz in New York and I was shocked and thrilled, probably because he knew it would likely be his last start though.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
When to yank a starter is one of those things he has a bad instinct for
There’ve also been numerous occasions where he leaves in a guy for two batters too long. That goes along with the quick hooks at other times, like here. Maybe that’s one of those things that it’s just easy to second-guess.

I don't remember where I heard this
But I read or heard somewhere that on any given day there are going to be pitchers who have it and pitchers who don’t have it. That’s just the way it is. And every time you take out a pitcher who has it that night, you increase your odds of getting to the pitcher who doesn’t have it.
God knows if that’s true or whatever but I think it all the time when Dave pulls shit like this. You know even if the Orioles win this game I’m going to be pissed because it’s so annoying.

I’m not saying teenagers aren’t having way too many kids, I’m just saying that with each year that passes your claim gets a little less shocking :)

Hi, I'm a little late but
Matty’s home run was fucking amazing, and in it I saw the future. Seriously, I almost teared up.
I think that was this year
or was that his brother.
Earl Weaver would’ve kissed Adam Dunn on the mouth in public. - SC 08/11/08
Both of them, I think
Justin was more recent, though

Yeah I was just looking it up
Looks like Justin got benched just a few weeks ago and BJ got benched last year, both for not running out balls. Justin got a single on what could have been a triple because he thought it would be a HR, and BJ didn’t run out a ground ball that he would have gotten a base hit on because the pitcher dropped the ball.
