That's ok
Stacey dumped my quote too. We should make up our own quote and give them to eachother. That’ll show them.

granderson's on the DL
we’ve got matusz, i’m feeling it.
by the way, if anyone remembers that fister guy on the mariners who we all had a good laugh about, he’s leading the majors in WHIP.

threw a gem today
8 innings of shutout ball
unfortunately, their offense sucks and David Aardsma gave up their 1-0 lead in the 9th inning… 1-1 in the 10th inning…. also Texas is playing without their DH, Ryan Garko moved to 1B…
yep, just saw the highlights on MLB network
this guy looks freakin LIVE. that whole staff should put them in contention all year long.

Nah it's their defense
He’s not striking anybody out, so basically which means there are a lot of balls being hit into pay. Since Seattle has a crazy good defense fister has an absurd babip. It’s .247 with league average around .300. Course it’s probably even lower after tonight

wow
kevin millwood is really surprising me and alot of others this yr. miggy and nicky are gonna set the bronx ablaze with their bats also drop trembley, albers and atkins.
Great series.
The close games are starting to go our way. Can’t say enough about Nick and Wiggy’s plate appearances in the 10th.
I also liked the managerial decisions, especially leaving Ohman in against the righty. I thought bunting with Ty the first time was reasonable, and having him swing away in the 10th (both when Nick was at first and when he was st second) was the right call.
Does anyone know what was said in the Trembley-Ohman meeting in the 9th? Given that Trembley didn’t signal to the bullpen on his walk to the mound, I’m guessing he had made up his mind to leave Ohman in already.
Was anyone even throwing when Trembley went out there?
I’m not sure he was totally convinced he was going to leave Ohman in, but it looked like Ohman was pretty insistent and Dave listened.
I'm guessing...
I think Albers was throwing. I’m not sure if Ohman even had time to be insistent. Dave was out there and on his way back pretty quickly.
Either way, good job by Dave and Ohman.
Amber asked Ohman about it during the post-game
According to Ohman, he didn’t even say anything to Trembley. Dave just came out and said, “Go get ’em,” and Ohman did not have to plead his case at all to stay in.
I'm ready for a straight jacket. - Joe Angel, 4/17/10 (O's record: 1-11)

Well that's true, we last swept PHN in a three game series was 1998.
Which was in the last millenium, so that statement is dead on.

Ugh, this stat just keeps getting more confusing
There was a sweep of Boston in Baltimore in 1998. but it was four game sweep. This was the first three game sweep since 1974.
Of course that stupid 2-game "mini-sweep" is screwing up all the stats.

I liked this in ESPN's recap
Millwood’s our Greinke. Except apparently better because less than half the runs he gives up are unearned

SWEEEEEEEEEEP
I was in the car for the last couple innings. I had to remind my daughter what a sweep is. They don’t come around that often in Birdland, but this one is particularly sweet for obvious reasons. Hopefully the red sox continue to fall out of contention and the band wagon clowns will become more sparse at The Yard. I can dream, right? If the O’s can sweep, this can also happen, right?
P.S. Note to Diamond Dave – don’t f*$%ing bunt with your best hitter late in the game and the potential winning run already on second, I was yelling at the radio.Got it? Thanks..
if anyone's interested
that fat man’s dealing in L.A.
just gave up an RBI double in the 9th.

This is a great headline from mlb.com:

Sitting behind was perhaps one of craziest Roid Sox fans ever.
She was a loudmouth, and was a crazy cheerleader. “LETS GO TEK (Loud 2 finger whistle)”, “(After almost any swinging strike) Don’t worry, you’ll get a hit next time!” It was unbelieveable. And she hates Lugo more then we do. But she’s a horrilbe insulter.
*Lugo sleeps with the lights on!
*Lugo hates kittens!
*Lugo doesn’t recycle!
*Lugo doesn’t care about the enviroment!
*Lugo lives with his mom!
So I casually reply, Lugo’s still getting payed the Red Sox! The red Sox fans are always crazy like that, however I haven’t encountered a Yankee fan that crazy, yet.

Yankee fans aren't that crazy
If a Yankee fan were to enjoy themself and have fun during a game the Yankees would have to ban them from their Universe. It’s a rule.

If those are the best insults you can come up with,
you’ve been living in Yuppieland far too long.

LOL
Guy’s a wifebeater, and this fool says he doesn’t recycle.
Just had to drop in again to gloat
AWESOME SERIES!!!!!
I am SO HAPPY.
I’ve had enough of the Red Sox having our number! Finally we come out on top for a change.
