O's vs. Royals 5/25

[OFFNY]

Jake, are you trying to get those $1,000 bonuses for that lucky fan on double plays ??? Cut it out.

3rd base umpire must have had Chipotle for lunch.

I just noticed that Billy Butler's on first base.

Lost another umpire. Is there something in the water down there?

[Remember The Alomar]

Watching Tillman and Arrieta pitch can be infuriating. They both have all the talent in the world and it's painful watching them try to get outs without averaging 20 pitches an inning.

Yeah, so true. To me Arrieta is worse though. I can understand Tillman trying to nibble/paint the black with an 89-90 FB. With Arrieta though? There's really no excuse when you throw a heavy 95 MPH fastball.

I've said it before, I'll say it again, I see ghosts of Mussina in Arrieta. Especially in profile. Now if he'd just get ghost of Mussina control.

Hey, I should say that more, since he just rung up Teagarden.

[Tank]

My imagination prefers to have Swisher doing that.

Nah, I think he might be an Oriole next year. Papelbon is way more annoying.

[isestrex]

I think he had to go potty

Yep, someone's got the Shiza Lebeoufs.

Umpire is back from dropping the two-bomb.

He just needed to drop the kids off at the pool.

[Tank]

Hope Arrieta is just a little wild and not injured...

[PrivateO]

It's gonna be one of those bullpen nights...

[Gurgi]

Arrieta does not look sharp. This could get ugly quick.

[The Wedge]

Thanks for pulling an Oriole and bailing us out there.
