Baseball on TV today! I love that!
Jeremy Guthrie makes his second start of the spring. In his first he pitched 2 innings with 1 hit and 1 walk. Let's make it two good ones in a row, Guts. He'll be faced by Clay Buchholz who has yet to pitch this spring.
Yeah, I'm excited. Green grass, blue skies, orange and black uniforms, Adam Jones, Nick Markakis, all on my television.
Lineups:
Adam Jones CF
Ty Wigginton DH
Nick Markakis RF
Miguel Tejada 3B
Matt Wieters C
Luke Scott LF
Garrett Atkins 1B
Miguel Abreu 2B
Cesar Izturis SS
Jacoby Ellsbury CF
J.D. Drew RF
Victor Martinez C
David Ortiz DH
Jeremy Hermida LF
Jed Lowrie 3B
Tug Hulett 2B
Yamaico Navarro SS
Aaron Bates 1B
Let's Go O's!

Any word on how long Guts will pitch today?
I haven’t been online at all this morning.
This just in: adorableness on the rise, family copes with child getting schooled. Film at 11. -daveh873
40ish pitches, I think
or 3 innings

No cheers for the home team
I went to an O’s-Sox spring training game last year and it was probably 90% RSN.
Lucklily the Red Sox had only brought 1 or 2 players anyone had ever heard of across the state, so it emptied out pretty quickly.
They're even closer to the Red Sox now so it'll be even worse

Atkins was the best acquisition of the winter, IMO
That’s not saying much, really, but of all the players brought in, Atkins is the youngest and has the most upside.

stacey,
The term "dude" is not complimentary and in fact is a form of derision used to address a fool who is pretending to be more than he is (ie: Dude Ranch).
