    House Babe Built: The bunting continues 9/20

    Why is Trembley continuing with the sacrifice bunts?

    Last night, he gave up at least two outs on bunts. Combined with Markakis thrown out at plate - I didn't see the play, but no problem with sending him - meant the Yankees only had to get 24 outs from the O's who were actually swinging the bat.

    If you take those three outs, and the two innings pitched by Joba and Rivera ( who are tough to score on), the O's had a good chance to score in six innings.

    Today against a rookie pitcher a bunt leads to two outs. Unbelievable.

    Get this guy a copy of Moneyball or an Internet connection.

    For whatever you think of Burres' pitching abilities, he did cover first on that Jeter grounder. That's one of the things that bugs me about De-Caf, he doesn't help himself at all in the field. I mean, these are fundamentals of the game... stuff you learn in A ball. Stuff you learn in college...

    Millar: now hitting .234....174 in september.

    He cant be on this team next year as the starting 1B..IMO Salazar is a better option right now.

    3-4-5 hitters coming up. This is our best shot at scoring.
