Around SBN: Yankees Deny Rumors That Team Is For Sale

And That Happened. Giants 10 - Orioles 2

30 games under .500, yeah that's nice and even. You see, today is what we call a Rendon. In less then 360 days, you will hear the words "With the first pick in the 2011 Amateur Draft, the Baltimore Orioles select, Anthony Rendon." As the words drip from the flappy mouth of Mr. Selig, Orioles fans will rejoice all around the world, breaking dishes and kisses bobbling replicas of Matt Wieters. Until then, we get stuck watching this....

Chris Tillman was god awful, throwing the high 80's / low 90's. He gave up 6 runs in just 2 innings. He didn't have his "rhythm" or whatever, in layman's terms, he sucked. Matt Wieters hit an early solo shot to tie the game at the time, that was pretty cool, you should all go watch the highlight of that, NOW.

Jason Berken came in for 2 innings (2 pretty good innings). He came out for a pitch hitter, since it was clearly more important to get Lou Montanez up with nobody on base and one out, then to save our bullpen arms. This led to a Matt Albers sighting, which wasn't too bad, this led to a Julio Lugo sighting, which was awful. Frank "Whats it Mata to you?" would take the place of Albers.

Ty Wiggington actually hit a solo homer as well, it hit of the tin roof in right field, but was called a double. Seeing as it was team nap time during the 6th inning, no one bothered to challenge the call. Just a day in the life.  He would later go on to have and RBI Double in the 8th ... followed by an Adam Jones strikeout.

Today our winning percantage dropped below the batting average of of Scott Moore, enough said.

To sum this game up, we didn't hit, we didn't pitch, we didn't field, so nothing out of the ordinary. Tomorrow, is JAKE ARRIETA Day! Let the good times roll.

I’ve always enjoyed games at San Fran’s park so my night wasn’t entirely wasted.

I can't wait until we do just enough to not

get the number one pick.

Insert something witty here.

Exactly....

I haven’t looked at the schedule, but watch this be the year the O’s decide to go and win 15 out of 18 in August or something like that, rather and go on their traditional 2nd half losing streak. Roberts & Pie return and each hit .350 for the month. All while the Pirates or Indians will tank and we’ll be stuck with the 2nd or 3rd pick. These are our O’s after all….

September looks pretty brutal though

All A.L. East series’, excepting 1 series against the Tigers. We should easily get 20 losses that month alone.

That seems HIGHLY unlikely.

Particularly because if the FO has any sense at all they’ll be without a good percentage of Luke, Wiggy, Miggi, Mentor, Hendo, etc. They’ll basically be a AAAA team at that point.

Please do not insult an AAA Team nor a AA Team by comparing the O’s to them.

Westie: excellent write-up, dude

I LOL’ed twice — which is about as rare as a well-played O’s game
