I don't think he can handle 1B and hit regularly...Nick Johnson needs to be playing to give our team the best chance to win. Or so many said....

[TiredofLosing20]

Is it possible that an O's team that looked woefully incomplete heading into the current season actually has a 1B, LF, 2B, SS, CF, RF, C, and 5 SP's for the next several years?

Is 3B really this team's only glaring hole?

It appears that way........thru 21 games.

Let's see where we end up, but so far I didn't think too many people would have thought we would be 13-8

I've been enjoying it, but the tough part of the schedule hasn't started yet. We're only 1 and 5 against teams expected to be in the post-season....

You do realize Johnson was signed to a minor league deal, right? And many people said he should playing to give the team the best chance to win?:scratchchinhmm: Huh, must have missed that. Was that before his current streak of ineptitude at the plate or his three base error the other night that led to Matusz getting a ND? It's not just that he hasn't gotten a hit, it's that he's looked awful most of the time trying.

allright. They always say to stay classy. So.......Who's your Daddy!! Who exactly is your Daddy!!!!!!!

At this rate, I wouldn't mind batting Chris Davis cleanup and having the lineup look like:

Reimold

Markakis

Jones

Davis

Wieters

Hardy

Betemit

Reynolds

Andino

yeah, that's not bad.

[El Gordo]

yeah, that's not bad.

Wieters is the more disciplined hitter, he should bat #4 and Davis #5. Other wise I like it.

SLG and OBP are actually almost equally weighted in the 4 spot. Assuming the same OPS, you'd want the guy with the lower OBP at cleanup.

This make s no sense what so ever. Wieters is the better all around hitter. His numbers now are not all that inconsistent with his aaility IMO, If you think Davis is anything near a .333 BA, .378 OB, hitter, I'd like to know what you are smoking. Plus Wieters is a SH.

Davis' swing reminds me a lot of Josh Hamilton's. :eektf:

[clapdiddy]

Did the ball hit the warehouse on the hop? What a shot, I was sitting in lower LF and lost it for a second when it got as high as the lights and then I saw it coming back down. He could be a popular player, my wife thinks he is hot.

The ball definitely hit the warehouse on a hop. You could see it on the replay.

Davis' swing reminds me a lot of the mighty mighty fist of God.

I was 25 feet away. It bounced and then almost hit the warehouse. It was not close on the fly. But it was a magestic shot.

Thanks for the correction. It sure looked like it did on the replay...but what do I know?

I can not find this homer on hit tracker. It was so far it couldn't be calculated I suppose.

Chris Davis is putting a pretty big grin on my face these days. I hope he can keep it up!
