Happy Sunday, folks. Anybody make it to the Buck and Andy Q & A? Care to share? If you were at the game, it sounds like it was a lovely evening for baseball, the final result notwithstanding.
At any rate, let's look at some clips...
School of Roch: The Matusz mystery continues (updated twice)
This post from Roch caused a stir last night, but...
Orioles Insider: Showalter says that plan remains for Matusz to stay in big leagues Buck taped down some of the negative talk to some extent.
Orioles address 'state of the team' - Carroll County Times:
Was that you, PBR, asking about international scouting?
Steve Melewski: MacPhail talks contract and Showalter talks Roberts with season-ticket holders Melewski has some more detail on the Q & A.
The Schmuck Stops Here: Orioles: Vision quest Matt Wieters is picking up what Josh Hamilton is putting down. Blake Davis has two different colored eyes. Who knew?
Steve Melewski: The Earl of Baltimore held court in Salisbury A wrap of the Sally League All Star Game.
Sports Legends Museum: Fans learn the art of pencil-and-paper baseball scorekeeping - Baltimore Sun
I just think this is kind of neat.
Two American League newcomers
A(nother?) Zach Britton and Michael Pineda comparison.
Birthday wishes to farmhand Dale Mollenhauer and Luis "Mr. Birdland" Hernandez.
(also, a lot of former players named Elmer were born today...maybe it was the turn of the century version of Tyler?)

Scorekeeping!!
I don’t want to pile up souvenir programs, so I bring my own scorebook and I’m always frightened by how many people ask me “What’s that?”

update...
i wonder if blake davis starts getting the bulk of starts.
"the secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits"
that's strange
we send Ryan Adams down to get regular at bats, and now Blake Davis is getting regular at bats in the bigs??

Ryan Adams also sucks.
Blake Davis probably does too though.

Might end up with a Davis/Andino platoon
Andino has a .325 average against LHP and only .184 against RHP.
Davis… well, who knows, but he bats left so he might start against righties more often.

I made it to the Q&A yesterday
And!, in spite of my BAC hovering in the lower stratosphere all weekend, I took notes. It was mostly boilerplate stuff, and some restating of things that have been said previously. I will write up a FanPost about it, since it would be a bit hefty to put it all here.

I would really like to hear about that Q&A, so I'll be looking forward to your FanPost.
I guess you never know when you might accidentally catch them saying something interesting!
