So, last night's game was pretty crappy. I thought they had a chance when J.J. Hardy came to the plate as the tying run, but alas. The Astros haven't proven as easy to beat as we all thought, but if the O's can get the series win they'll still be in good shape.
The first two rounds of the amateur draft begin tonight at 6 p.m. and while we don't have the excitement of a top five pick, it'll still be interesting to see who the O's take. They'll have three picks today: #22, #37, and #61.

Don't we all, though? There's also a story in here on Dave Trembley meeting up with his old team. Trembley is a coach with the Astros.

Happy birthday to Merv Rettenmund, outfielder for the Orioles from 1968-72.
This day in Camden Chat history! In 2006, SC took a poll of our favorite current Orioles. The list to choose from is sad, and I for some reason chose Chris Ray. In 2009, I wrote about the Orioles losing to the A's. In 2010, duck gave us Birds Up, O's Down. And in 2012, the Orioles signed Nate McLouth. That turned out pretty good!
