Brady Anderson in the MASN Booth
I am enjoying the addition of Brady Anderson to the MASN telecast tonight. He has been insightful, and added a nice balance to Palmer's pitching knowledge. It is clear that Anderson has been paying attention this team, and has a good feel for the roster. In particular...
145 Games Left – Salvage the Season!
It is inexcusable for the Baltimore Orioles to be 2-15. It is maddening, because the starting pitching (aside from Bergesen) has kept the O's competitive just about every-game. While the injuries to Roberts, and Pie have hurt the offense (and limited the bench), and...
O’s have to address the bullpen
After the Orioles get through these remaining 11 games vs. Boston and New York, there will probably be a decision made on Trembley. Before that happens, the O's have to begin to address the bullpen. I have defended Albers plenty. As a relief pitcher, I've always liked...
Tillman & Snyder with strong games for AAA Norfolk
Chris Tillman, who had been struggling for AAA Norfolk, earned his first 2010 victory with a strong performance tonight.Over 8 innings, Tillman allowed 7 hits, 3 er, 0 bb's, 1 homer, with 5 k's.Hopefully Tillman will be able to build off of tonight, and start to...
Jones, Markakis, and Wieters
I do not want to 'oversell' the performance, but tonight is an example of what is needed from Jones, Markakis, and Wieters to compete on the road in the American League East. Going to the 9th (with Wieters out of the game) they are a combined 4 for 12 with a homer,...
Another solid outing for Guthrie
Jeremy Guthrie made his 4th 2010 start tonight in Boston, and for the 4th time gave the O's at-least 6 innings.Tonight, he went exactly 6 innings, allowing 5 hits, 3 er, 2 bb's, 1 homer, with 0 k's.He has also now allowed 3er or less in each of his outings.His control...

If the O’s record was reversed
The Baltimore Orioles fell to an abysmal 2-13 record, with a 3-1 loss in Seattle. David Hernandez struggled in the 1st inning, but rebounded to provide an effective outing. Hernandez went 6.1 innings, allowing 7 hits, all 3 er, 2 bb's, with 2 k's. Again the O's were...
