Mariners 8, Orioles 2: Fisted

PrintCome on, you knew that was going to be the headline, didn't you?
Brad Bergesen pitched some garbage for the third consecutive time. Wiggy ruined the good will he'd built up among O's fans by booting what would have been a double play ball at third. And the Orioles hitters continued to look completely clueless as they were held hitless until the 7th inning.
This team is not the Orioles. I'm not making apologies, I'm not making excuses, I'm just throwing it out there. Reimold can't play the field. Roberts is going to be out for a long time. So is Pie. Wiggy shouldn't be playing third base. And I don't care how many games he plays, I refuse to acknowledge Julio Lugo as a member of this team.
Doesn't matter, though, because the regulars look just terrible. Adam Jones can't hit his way out of a wet paper bag and he doesn't look that hot in the outfield. Nick Markakis looks awful.
Bad starting pitching? Check. Bad defense? Check. Bad offense? Check.
Let's do it again tomorrow!

Sorry Berken
At some point, i can only give you MBP votes for mop up duty so many times, no matter how well you do.
How long do you keep trotting Bergy out there?

Considering how terribly the team is doing as a whole.
I can’t see them putting up with this much longer. I’d give him 1-2 more tries to prove that he is worthy of being on this rotation. If he’s not, time to bring up Jake.
Nope
""I’m trying everything right now," Bergesen said. "I think the two previous starts, I started getting a little too slow, so I came in with a lot of confidence, wanted to work fast, wanted to be upbeat today, trying to get our team going, and I just wasn’t able to do that.
“I have not gotten into the sequencing that I need to do to be successful in this league. I keep saying it, but hopefully it’ll click and I’ll get it for the next outing. It’s tough for everyone and extremely tough for me. I care so much about this team. To not chew up innings and put that workload on the bullpen, it just absolutely kills me right now.”"
is painful to read.

I voted for "Are you kidding me?"
I am looking forward to the day that Brian Roberts is an option again!

so why is he here talking about awaiting BRob's return? very confusing
Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
um yea
what does berggy have that arrietta, tillman and berken don’t? does any one know if atkins is hurt haven’t seen much of him latly? did anyone else watch the game and notice the obsurd amount of fisted jokes the dude made? struck him out he just got fisted lol wtf.
bergy
has 7 wins and a sub-4 ERA in 19 starts at the major league level.
those other guys don’t have that.

I feel let down
Had alot of hope for Brad but seems he couldnt match last year. I guess the scouts were right he was a underrated prospect now he is an overrated guy coming back from an injury who cant pitch worth a shit.

I don't think there is a word for this
I think the English language has some limitations that prevent me from expressing how this team makes me feel. If only some word could encompass embarrassment, anger, frustration, confusion, resignment, and disdain, multiplied by about 1000, in one neat and tidy package. I’m sure I’m leaving out about ten other useful adjectives here too…
I believe you're looking for the phrase
“dead inside”
As in: ‘This team makes me feel dead inside.’
cxcxcxcxzzzzzzzzz
Or perhaps
“This shit fucking sucks”. You could add the word “ass” at the end for emphasis if you like as wekk.

And I don’t care how many games he plays, I refuse to acknowledge Julio Lugo as a member of this team.
Truth. Fuck that guy.
