Spencer Fordin of Orioles.com has an interesting story of Dave Trembley's Post-game comments from last-night:http://baltimore.orioles.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090624&content_id=5503974&vkey=recap&fext=.jsp&c_id=balFordin points out that Trembley...

David Hernandez took the mound for Norfolk tonight, but left after the 4th inning and just 40 pitches. In those 4 innings, Hernandez allowed 0 hits, 0 bb's, and had 4 k's. No word yet on why he left the game. This was his 3rd start since being sent back to the Minors....

Jason Berken made his 6th Major League start tonight, and I think continues to show reasons to believe he has a future in the bigs. That said, I do not see that future continuing to be in the O's rotation for very-long. After tonight, Berken has pitched 31.1 innings,...

Chris Tillman has had another strong outing for AAA Norfolk. Tonight, Tillman worked 6 innings, allowing 7 hits, 2 er, 0 bb's, with 3 k's. This was his 3rd consecutive start of 6 innings of work. For the year, Tillman now has the folllowing stats:66 innings, 59 hits,...

Jim Johnson turns 26 on June 27th. Johnson emerged with the O's last year, when he was fully converted from Minor League Starter to the O's bullpen. That conversion allowed for a 2-3 mph gain on his fast-ball, and increasing depth for sinker. In 54 games, Johnson had...

According to the Baltimore Sun, Chris Ray has been recalled from AAA Norfolk, with Alberto Castillo being sent down. http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/orioles/bal-castillo21,0,7028565.storyRay allowed a run in-relief today. However, during his time in AAA, Ray...
