vs. BLUE JAYS 4/24

[backwardsk]

Nice play Davis. Not all scoops are created equal. That one looked like an in between hop.

I don't ever remember Hunter having such poor command.

Did you miss his last start?

With the depleted BP, I wouldn't be surprised to see Buck let Hunter pitch the 7th if he can get through the 6th at around 96 pitches.

I have to say...Bordick has been much better tonight. Outspoken, confident, and just involved.

[CA-ORIOLE]

Did you miss his last start?

No. I know he left some FB's up last start, but I didn't think his command was as bad as it is today. Looks like he's using a lot more cutters today.

Is it really depleted, or are they just down Johnson? They could go Lindstrom, Ayala, Strop. But I do think Buck will let him go as deep as he can.

[crissfan172]

Joe Angel calling that Flaherty bunt a sacrifice. Maybe just an odd gamble by Buck. But Joe also now questioning if he bunted on his own or not.

Well...it was a sacrifice. Whether or not it was supposed to be is another question.

Don't just go by the pitch-count, Bucky. Listen to Matt, and watch how he looks.

He'll get better as the season goes on.

The O's have turned like a million DPs this season, and could be even more if they didn't botch a few of them. For awhile they were leading the league, but I don't know if that's still true.

They said earlier in the game that the Jays are leading the league in turning DPs, I think.

Yeah...just down Johnson, but that's a big piece to be missing. Hopefully it won't be a problem.

[Guest Snoozer]

Let's have another inning like the last for Hunter.

[mrbig1]

Does anyone think we should have kept Luke Scott?

[Guest Snoozer]

I think Gregg is being buried in the bullpen and will only be used if the game gets out of hand.
