If we could somehow find a way to beat the D-Rays when David Price was throwing BB's by us for 8 innings yesterday, we could find a way to beat the A.L. Pitchers of the Month for July tonight.

Jason Vargas – LHP (12-7, 3.71 ERA)

Chris Tillman – RHP (4-1, 2.70 ERA)

[RavNMadMan]

I have a very good feeling about this game. We got this.

[WEAVERMAN]

Okay boys, let's get it going early and often. Keep it going, Chris Tillman.

[allquixotic]

If Miguel Gonzalez can beat David Price, Chris Tillman can beat Jason Vargas. I'm feeling REAL good about 3 of our starters right now, and one of them is on the mound tonight.

Hardy batting third? yeesh!

[weams]

Tillman is dealing.

[caesarod]

Breaks up the no-hitter.

Vargas was one of the names that came up in trade rumors and I remember the OH saying he wasn't good enough. I assume the Mariners wanted too much for him.

[LA2]

I think Buck still doesn't "get it" about what type of hitter shd be batting second....

[CA-ORIOLE]

Freakin bunting in the first inning. Just dumb.
