Ongoing lineup thread for 2013

[isestrex]

I agree. Championship teams simply do not do these things.

Championship teams make all kinds of irrational decisions regarding veterans.

...I'd include facts in my argument but I don't feel compelled to do so since I didn't see any from you.

Atrocious pitching matchup for us today. We need Feldman to hold them to two runs or less most likely.

Wieters catching on a Sunday instead of Teagarden? I guess Buck actually wants to try winning this game.

.

Although Felix Doubront has a good E.R.A. of 3.79, his W.H.I.P. (1.400) is rather high, as is his walk rate ...... he has walked 58 batters in 140 innings pitched, for an average of a walk every 2.41 innings.

BALTIMORE ORIOLES O (vs. RED SOX, 8/27)

Brian Roberts - 2B

Manny Machado - 3B

Chris Davis - 1B

Adam Jones - CF

Nick Markakis - RF

Matthew Wieters - C

J.J. Hardy - SS

Danny Valencia - DH

Steve Pearce - LF

Wei-Yin Chen - LHP (7-6, 3.19 ERA)

OPPOSING PITCHER

Felix Doubront - LHP (9-6, 3.79 ERA)

With Pearce and Valencia in to face the southpaw, and McLouth and Flaherty out, Roberts has moved from the bottom of the lineup to the top for tonight's contest.

Interesting that Nick is batting 5th. Would much rather see Hardy there against the lefty, despite Nick's recent 2B and HR.

Off day on the Monday probably helped his decision. Doubt we would have see Wiet had we had a game on Monday.

Advance lineup notes for tonight's game from Roch.

I would have taken Wieters out of last night's game after it was 11-2 in the 5th (6th?). Could have rested him for 3 innings in a game that was well out of hand.

I tend to agree with you here.

This was the planned opening day lineup. Maybe not batting order, but all the position guys that we had hoped to go with at the start of the season are in there, finally at game 130 something.

Not based on past history, he is 0 for 4 against him this year.
