PrintJeremy Guthrie will try to calm the worries of Orioles fans as he takes the mound today against Ricky Nolasco of the Marlins. Guthrie got torched in his last start, giving up 6 runs on 7 hits and 3 walks in 3 innings. He's been up and down this spring (it's only Spring Training is what I keep telling myself, but sometimes it just doesn't help).
Today's game is being broadcast by both the Marlins radio network, WAXY-790, and the Orioles radio network, 105.7 The FAN. Both are on Gameday Audio and one will be broadcast on XM183 (I'm guessing the Marlins feed since that's the home team)
| Baltimore Orioles | Florida Marlins |
|---|---|
| Nolan Reimold - DH | Chris Coghlan - LF |
| Adam Jones - CF | Cameron Maybin - CF |
| Nick Markakis - RF | Hanley Ramirez - SS |
| Miguel Tejada - 3B | Jorge Cantu - 3B |
| Luke Scott - LF | Dan Uggla - 2B |
| Matt Wieters - C | Cody Ross - RF |
| Garrett Atkins - 1B | Gaby Sanchez - 1B |
| Ty Wigginton - 2B | Brett Hayes - C |
| Cesar Izturis - SS | Ricky Nolasco - RHP |
You know, I'm not mad at this lineup. If the Orioles are going to start the season with Roberts on the bench they could do a lot worse than Nolan Reimold in the leadoff spot, even if he is kinda gimpy. I'm not crazy about Tejada at cleanup but I'd rather see him there than Izturis leading off, and personally I'd swap Wieters and Scott but it hardly makes a difference.
Ugh, I am analyzing ST lineups. Thank goodness we're only two weeks from Opening Day.
Let's Go O's!

So long as one day, the O's bat Nick 2nd...
…and Wieters 4th, I’ll be happy.

Anyone know if Roberts is now back on pace for opening day?
With taking live BP now and hopefully getting in a game by the end of the week?
I think so
… all the stories seem to be assuming that if he gets back this week, he’ll be on track.
by Joltin Joe Orsulak on Mar 23, 2010 1:18 PM EDT up reply actions
1-1
Ramirez BB, SB (close); Cantu single.

But can he pitch
And what does Rich Hill have to do with anything?
by fishoutawata on Mar 23, 2010 2:04 PM EDT up reply actions
nothing really
but he did have an rbi single last year against the philies. also in one of the few games he actually decided to pitch in.
by twistedlogic on Mar 23, 2010 2:06 PM EDT up reply actions
Haha, nice.
Me, too, and also with my own Phillies fan buddy (though I like the Phils, too). I couldn’t believe they weren’t able to beat up on Rich Hill, considering everyone else was and they’d seen him before.
I was also at the game where ZAUN and B-Rob took Madson deep in the ninth. I was rather conflicted at first, but man, that was awesome.
Weaver's Fourth Law: Your most precious possessions on offense are your twenty-seven outs.
I missed that one
I was at the 1st and 3rd game of the series.
BTW, every time the O’s beat the Phils I send my bud a little text just saying something simple, like “Hey, just thought you should know the Phils lost to the O’s. Again.”
The last time the Phils beat us, preseason or regular, was June 29th, 2006. It’s also the last time we played them before last year, but don’t let that get in the way.
Matusz vs. Hill tomorrow, apparently.

good…i can safely bet on the orioles tomorrow. they’ll still probably be listed as underdogs too.

i have literally gone nowhere in the past week
i finally netted like 10 cents last nite cuz of princeton’s clutch double OT victory. that was my first actual gain since last week.

Anybody else having MLB Gameday troubles?
No link to the actual game, so no audio, no nothing.
Missed the past few batters (had to go to class)
but it sounds like a pretty tight strike zone today
we play some pretty crappy ball against the marlins

Maybe we can borrow Jamie Moyer for a day?

2-1 going into the 5th
So, when are we allowed to worry about the offense?
And Royal Farms chicken is bangin’. Just saying.
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
ahahahah bangin'
My roommate and I (back when I had a roommate) would walk to the Royal Farms on the avenue and get a chicken box from time to time. Maybe a few lotto tickets. Good times.

It goes like this
Sheetz>Wawa>Rutters>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Royal Farms
Chicken box or not, Royal Farms is gross.
i dunno
wawa makes a solid case for number 1.
by twistedlogic on Mar 23, 2010 2:32 PM EDT up reply actions
love sheetz and wawa
But in Baltimore they’re just not very prevalent. Royal Farms CAN be gross (the one I used to go to certainly is) but it’s really location by location.
This just in: adorableness on the rise, family copes with child getting schooled. Film at 11. -daveh873
ah
i stop at sheetz on the way down to uva and wawa on the way back everytime.
by twistedlogic on Mar 23, 2010 2:33 PM EDT up reply actions
The only Wawa I even know of in Baltimore
is in…Essex? Or maybe Rosedale. There are a few in AA Co though that were around when I was growing up. I always enjoy that their ATMs are surcharge free.

The one by Checkers?
My friend lives right near there, we go there all the time. It’s a bitch to get in and out of, but the Turkey Gobbler makes it all worthwhile.
Yeah that's the one
It’s not at all convenient for me, so I gotta stick with Royal Farms. Not for coffee though, I hit up Dunkin Donuts for that.

i visit my local gainsville wawa
well it isnt local, but its on my way. plus they ALWAYS have the cheapest gas. if the hess in charlottesville doesnt beat them out, then there is no cheaper. paid 2.52 there…..20 mins later when i was home, the local shell station was 2.85.

It's very very close
I only choose Sheetz because their coffee is way better, but everything else is equally awesome.
true
but wawa has tons of other stuff that ive found to be pretty good. when i drove home at spring break, the backside of my receipt was a coupon for these twisted milkshake thingys. cost me 50 cents and it made sitting in traffic on 28 a quite delicious experience.

The milkshakes at Sheetz?
The ones that are frozen in a cup and you put them on the machine? My little sister and I get them on the way home from our grandparents house. They rock.

it wasnt bad. the sheetz ones arent bad either

might have been one of those
it wasnt bad. although i’d probably never purchase one again.

Actually i'm not sure i've ever lived anywhere they overlap to make a fair comparison
I’ve spent most of my life in either exclusive wawa or sheetz territory
Wawa was just starting to move into Harford County when i still lived in Maryland
Then i moved to pure-sheetz territory in Pittsburgh, and now live in the Wawa motherland.
You city people and all your choices
I’d never seen a Wawa until 5 years ago.

You country folk and your exaggerations
When I was a sophomore in college in 1998-1999 they built a Wawa just off Rt 13 by my house. I remember because my roommate was SO excited to be able to go buy those individually wrapped giant pickles.

No way
No way there’s been a Wawa in Salisbury for 13 years.
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
I don't actually know how to research it
But I know that my roommate Casey who was from South Jersey and thus the Wawa queen almost peed her pants out of excitement when it opened. And I only lived with her my sophomore year.

And I'm betting it wasn't a tearful parting....
Geez, if that’s all it took, I’d hate to share a laundry hamper with her.

That’s just a little creepy that
A) you cared enough to find out
B) you found it as quickly as you did
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
ahahaahahaha
I only cared because the fact that you didn’t remember it made me wonder if my memory was playing tricks on me.

So the Orioles Hangout
I’m not trying to start some bashing or anything, honestly, but this is the picture of Nolan Reimold they posted with their game recap from Sunday. I guess it’s not supposed to matter if it’s flattering or not, but it’s at least two years old and he appears to have a mullet.
This just in: adorableness on the rise, family copes with child getting schooled. Film at 11. -daveh873
To be fair...
they don’t have legal access to the photo resources we have here. It’s kinda nice to be able to legally use AP photos.
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
I guess
But it seems to me I’d rather not use a photo at all than use that one.
And like I said, I’m not trying to bash them because I think that their site, while not everyone’s cup of tea, is a great resource and community for Orioles fans. But their front page is just so substandard. I know their forums are their bread and butter but they also talk up their content a lot, they have people who do a lot of good writing, but their front page looks like it hasn’t been updated since 1997.

Once the money from LocalSportsHangout starts flowing in
they’ll be able to really improve the site. Any day now…

I feel old.

Wear an O’s cap. Bet that’ll get her to notice you.

Just keep in mind that she has two professional athletes for brothers. So you’d better treat her right.

If you like I can woo Nolan to distract him
I never thought he was good looking until I saw him at Fanfest, but it turns out he’s quite lovely.

Besides, I love him like my child, you know that. The other day I was talking to my friend about how much I adore Rob Lowe and I wondered if he would be interested in raising a 24 year old Dominican/Haitian manchild with me.

I'm sure Jen would be SO worried
This just in: adorableness on the rise, family copes with child getting schooled. Film at 11. -daveh873
Actually it's ok
I told her Diedre is on my list, and my list is very short. She can have any Oriole player worry free (BriBob used to be her preference, but now it’s Wieters).
Really, Wieters?
Interesting. He’s at least the 5th most attractive player on the team.

She doesn't dig Nick at all
Which I find odd, because if I were to try to judge I’d probably have Nick up there. She still loves B-Rob and she thought Tillman and Matusz were cute, but Wieters is her fave. I dunno, ask her.
Nick is hit or miss
When he’s cleaned up he’s amazing but left to his own devices, well, we’ve seen the results.
I wasn’t even considering Matusz or Tillman. I think BriBob, Nick, AJ, Reimold are all definitely more attractive than Wieters. Actually when he’s mullet free I put Luke above him as well. Tillman also, maybe. I think Brian Matusz looks 12. The unheralded hottie of the Orioles, though, is definitely Jim Johnson. He never gets any recognition but he’s quite the looker. Such is the life of being the setup man in Baltimore, I suppose.
This just in: adorableness on the rise, family copes with child getting schooled. Film at 11. -daveh873
She doesn't even dig cleaned up Nick
I forgot Reimold. She does like him a bit and she liked Luke for a second or so, but B-Rob and Jesus are definitely her faves.
Matusz does look 12, but she said he was “cute” as in she would have liked him 7 years ago.
So....does anyone know what's going on in the game?
