</b>

The Orioles have lost the last five games Gallardo has started and finished August with a 5.46 ERA and a 5.63 in July. He just hasn't been good this season for the Orioles and his horrendous 1.63 WHIP and 4.8 BB/9 are big reasons for it. Gallardo has been horrible on the road which also doesn't help, but he's done well at Orange Juice Field and has gotten lucky otherwise according to the high WHIP and BAA in his overall numbers against the Rays.

Jake Odorizzi

(9-5)

3.56 (1.21/.244)

146K / 47BB, 23HR

QS: 12

Odorizzi has had yet another strong season for the Rays with really only one bad month which was June. He had a 3.77 in July and a 2.48 in August. The Rays have won six of the last seven games he has started and really only had one terrible start against the Orioles this season; five runs on eight hits and a walk in five innings including three home runs back in June. He allowed two runs in six innings in July, one run in five innings in April and the other April start was four runs on nine hits in six innings which isn't "terrible", but certainly not good. Odorizzi has been on fire since the July start and has really been pitching well as has most of the Rays staff. Odorizzi is also stellar at home.

Jimenez pitched real well against the Rays after the bad first inning which can't be understated. He goes the distance and saves the bullpen which is huge. He bounced back and shut down their offense and gets things started on a good note. The Chris Davis AB in the fifth inning just embodies why Andreise hasn't been good and IMO why the Rays pitchers have struggled so much this season. I remember a terrible sequence called by Hank Conger earlier in the season with Matt Moore on the mound that cost him the game and again in the fifth, another absolutely terrible sequence of pitches called by Maile and thrown by Andreise. Davis was set up and would have whiffed on any good breaking pitch under the zone, so what does the TB battery throw? A fastball over the plate and they're lucky it didn't end up in the seats. Just a terrible call and that led to a terrible sequence of calls leading to a five run fifth inning.

The Rays really have some awful catchers that make bad calls way too often and they always lead to big innings. It wouldn't surprise me if TB went after Weiters if he leaves this offseason, but IMO, catcher is a major position of need for the Rays. They really need someone who can call a decent game that the pitchers can trust. They have no one like that at this time and once again, it cost them the game. Maile also changed the approach after the Hardy foul ball which was mentioned on the telecast and Andreise is to blame for that as well, but just a terrible group of catchers in TB this season that don't know how to call a game for nine innings. Anyway, the Orioles get another win against the weakest Rays starter in this series and will go for the series win here against Odorizzi.

Odorizzi is on a real roll and is pitching very well for the Rays while Gallardo isn't pitching all that well and really hasn't for the majority of the season. He pitches well in Tampa, but Odorizzi is better. He has struggled against the Orioles overall though.

So, Toronto loses and NY wins. Boston also loses to the Padres while the Tigers win in extras on a big three run homer from Upton who has been hot after having such an abysmal start for them. He hit a big homer to beat KC as well. It doesn't look like the Tigers are going away. KC and Seattle both won big and Houston has a 1-0 lead on Cleveland in the second.

Wild Card Standings

*Boston +1.0

*Baltimore --

*Detroit --

Houston -2.0

NY Yankees -3.5

KC Royals -4.0

Seattle -5.0

This is what happens when you let Ubaldo dominate.

I can't guarantee it, but I'm pretty sure Gallardo will one-up Ubaldo's performance tonight.

Like Ubaldo gave up 3 runs in the first last night... Gallardo will give up 4!

Damn, I thought you were going to go all positive on me for a second. :)
