Around SBN: UFC 146 Predictions

Friday Bird Droppings

Steve Melewski: Keys fall by one run in game two of the playoffs
"The Potomac Nationals pushed across a run in the top of the 7th vs. Nate Nery to break a 4-4 tie as the Nationals beat Frederick tonight 5-4 at Harry Grove Stadium. The win evens their best-of-five Northern Division Championship Series at a game each."

Oriole Park: Disputes linger over the benefits of a state-funded stadium
"Eighteen years after Oriole Park at Camden Yards opened in Baltimore to universal praise -- and seasons of sold-out games -- baseball fans continue to visit the brick-and-steel park that is often credited with rejuvenating ballpark design. So is it a success? That depends on who's defining success."

Orioles-Tigers Preview - CBSSports.com
"Jim Joyce is scheduled to be umpiring with Galarraga (4-5, 3.89 ERA) on the mound for the first time since that memorable game against Cleveland. Joyce was at first base and called Jason Donald safe after Galarraga had retired the first 26 batters."

 Reliever Matt Albers focused on strong finish to season, not his future with Orioles - baltimoresun.com
"While it has been popular to talk about the way the Orioles have been playing for their jobs next year since Buck Showalter took over as manager, Matt Albers has been in that situation since the beginning of the season."

Orioles: After attitude, technique adjustments, outfielder Felix Pie is a hit with his Orioles teammates - baltimoresun.com
As noted in yesterday's Bird Droppings thread: "He's changed a lot, but when he first got here, you could just tell he had an attitude and a little chip on his shoulder and whatever the hell else was wrong with him," center fielder Adam Jones said. "Luke had to really challenge him, call him out and embarrass him for him to really come into his own. And Luke did it. He and Luke have a bond that nobody else can have in this clubhouse."

Uehara-mania taking root in Baltimore | orioles.com: News
"Orioles closer Koji Uehara and his sideburns are not superhuman. But, as evidenced in the past two months, they're pretty darn close."

School of Roch: The Full Montanez
"My first year when I first showed up to camp in the spring of '07 I was in disbelief that a major league team in the 21st century had such facilities. Even worse was the day I experienced because an experience it is, Twin Lakes Park, the three hour separated minor league facility. Utter embarrassment and almost fear for things to come was what struck me. Picture a glorified chicken coop with no AC, moldy smell, broken tiled bathrooms, and fields that even opposing teams were unwilling to let their players play on. I'm surprised PETA or the ACLU never intervened." I know the link was posted within the BD open thread yesterday, but you MUST read the whole thing. Seriously. Wow.

It was one of the most exciting games I have ever seen live.

Potomac scored 8 runs in the top of the first on only 3 hits. I decided that it was over so might as well get drunk. Then Frederick scored 7 in the bottom of the first. Both teams hit a grand slam in the first inning. It was crazy. Only two more runs were scored until the ninth. Both by frederick. Potomac tied it in the top of the ninth at 9. Then LJ Hooooooeessssss scored from first on a bunt with a throwing error (which I missed because I was in the bathroom).

I now have two (2) valid US passports, and will through the end of October.

C’mon over and gitcha seff a couple. btw, the new ones are really cool— different pics ‘n’ famous quotes on every page. All kinda security bells ‘n’ whistles. And good for 10 yrs…so you might wanna not screw up your pic, as you’re gonna have to live with (and by) it for a long time.

this is exactly what SC wrote on FB after the game
Cris Collinsworth has blamed Percy Harvin’s headaches, Sidney Rice’s hip, Greg Camarillo’s newness, and about 18 other things for the Vikings having no timing or chemistry in their passing game. Surely, SURELY, it can’t be Brett Favre not going to camp and developing no rapport with his receivers. It’s everyone else’s fault! Or some mystery.

Give him

well, I don't think

Snyder’s gonna hit enough period to play in the majors (as a starter), and he cna’t really play anywhere else, and first base is – as they say – basically the easiest position to fill, so at least in this case the hit for his position talk is warranted enough.

by Andrew_G on Sep 10, 2010 10:29 AM EDT up reply actions  

Also...

I agree in theory with the whole “bat playing at a position” thing being kinda dumb, but the thing is we do need another big bat somewhere, and the easiest place to find that bat (generally) is at 1st base. If we are going to add a big bat from outside the organization, it most likely will be at 1st, meaning unless Snyder can hit with a decent amount of power, he’s likely not to be able to stick at 1st.

by daveh873 on Sep 10, 2010 10:34 AM EDT up reply actions  

Okay, fielding position aside,

the Orioles need a better hitting cleanup hitter with real power. Wigginton is a good firstbaseman but not a good enough hitter to be batting 3rd or 4th in the AL East. If Bell isn’t the answer at 3B, we need someone there, too. I’m just saying that they need a big time cleanup hitter and 1B is a good place to find one.
