Yankees 12, Orioles 7: Another day...

PrintKevin Millwood had another bad outing, giving up home runs to Nick Swisher and Curtis Granderson and walking six batters in 5.2 innings. The end result was 6 runs and Millwood's 7th loss of the year.
The O's bullpen took the game from bad to embarrassing as Mark Hendrickson gave up 4 runs in 0.1 innings and Matt Albers gave up 2 runs in 0.2 innings. Well done, fellas.
The O's scored seven runs but four were when the game was already out of reach. Adam Jones hit a 2 run HR in the 8th and Nick Markakis doubled in two more in the 9th. If you're looking for positives, Matt Wieters had three hits. That's something I guess.
This team is so awful that I can barely stand to watch. In fact, I barely did watch. At this point it doesn't even bother me, which might be the most disturbing part of it all.

All the Strasburg hype reminds me
that every loss is another step closer to Rendon.
Waiting 'til next year.
Come on Kevin
wouldn’t you want to pitch good so you can get out of an O’s uni?
I'm a fan of the Orioles and Pirates...you'd think I would be used to losing by now

Wow. Just wow. Nice to see those Albert Belle Memorial Runs, though, heh-heh..
And the 15 hits, eh? That’s something, isn’t it? Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha…Aha…ha…a…no, huh?
Oh yeah, did I just read that Strasburg struck out 114 in his first 7 innings? Say, that’s just exceptional, isn’t it? Excuse me, breakfast is coming back up.

I assume
That was supposed to read “struck out 14 in his first 7 innings” because if he struck out 114 in 7 innings, the Nats need a new catcher! LOL

I thought he got it
off a ‘Strasburg Facts’ website
Has there ever been a cooler Oriole than Eddie Murray? I mean, just straight up cool. Like a bad, suave dude. You know what I'm sayin'. COOL. SC 7/24/08

On the plus side
At least all that Strasburg hype turned out to be crap…oh wait…
Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
I don't know - have you seen his new haircut on bbtn???
It’s like the bad haircut episode of Seinfeld

Newsflash:
Baseball managers wear baseball hats. Pretty much all the time.
Plus this is baseball, my man. Not an episode of Project Runway. Who cares what people’s hair looks like?
Well...

I confess, even if it’s BS, it has my interest—something the actual O’s team is quickly losing.
I fairness, it is good that the Os hit a bit last night, even if the pitching sucked. It does increase the odds that someday, just y sheer dumb luck, both might actually come together on the same day.
I like Eric Wedge
I’m a little worried about Bobby V. clashing with players. And I don’t think he’d get along with big Petey.
I came to camdenchat and all I got was this lousy avatar.
Please...
…get someone who clashes with these players. I’m tired of this non-coaching staff babying these losers.
That’s right. Losers.
They need someone to get in there and truly shake things up. Add some fire and panache to this team while motivating those that are going to succeed (my guess, Wieters, Matusz) and weeding out those who will fail (my guess, Jones).
We’ve seen where the “players’ coach” routine has gotten us, year after year.
to each his own
I like managers who get along with their players but whatever, either way can work.
I came to camdenchat and all I got was this lousy avatar.
Oh...
…and getting along with Angelos shouldn’t even be a consideration. If he and Angelos despise each other, that’s a plus in my book.
You're right
Because if Angelos is even commenting in any way on the manager, there’s our red flag he’s meddling again. I don’t what Peter Angelos thinks of our manager. I care about what Andy MacPhail thinks and our win-loss record and the progress of player development. That’s about it. Players can throw darts at his picture in the cluibhouse for all I care.
When you watch the Orioles every night, a beer after dinner turns into a six pack WAY too many times. Stacey

Angelos doesn’t even have to say shit in order for Bobby V to get in hot water. Davey got fired because he made some stupid remark about having to make the playoffs to keep his job. That’s what I’m talking about with Bobby V. He might say something off the cuff, which may be completely right, but it ruffles Petey’s delicate feathers. I’m not defending the situations. I’m just pointing out reality.

nd getting along with Angelos shouldn’t even be a consideration.
He’s not going to remain employed very long if he clashes with Angelos JP. It’s a practical concern. Do you really want to go through another manager’s search in less than a year.

I still think Showalter is the way to go
He managed the Yanks, and they went to the WS the year after they fired him .
He managed the D-Backs, and they went to the WS the year after they fired him.
So, hire him now, fire him in the offseason or after next year and O’s are in WS in 2011 or 2012. Mission accomplished!

Yeah. I have stopped watching full games for the first time in a very long time (years!). Every time I’ve flipped on a game in the last 10 days or so, it’s been just in time to watch something bad happen (bullpen gives up a 2-run shot, a certain someone Ks swinging in the dirt, etc.). The last full games I watched were the ones I went to, when they played the Nats a couple weekends ago — and they lost both of those games as well. And when I HAVE watched 3 or 4 innings of a game on TV, I have been hurting my throat from yelling and my back/shoulders get all tense.
Ugh, that’s all I have to say I guess. I’m sad, angry, heartbroken, and disgusted, is the main point of it.
Nina, that's a lot of us, I fear
I haven’t watched an entire game in probably two weeks, and I can’t say I’m going to until Strasburg pitches against us. I may end up doing so, but I’m not planning on it. And I haven’t felt that way since 4-32.

I am glad
The suckitude is continuing so no one is even considering keeping Samuel around.
"People who write about spring training not being necessary have never tried to throw a baseball."
Sandy Koufax
Paine had it right
The summer O’s fan and the sunshine Birdlander will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their team; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Suckage, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as A CHAMPIONSHIP should not be highly rated.
