vs. Astros 7/30. (Without Bud Norris)

[Norfolk orioles]

I don't think we got KRod to replace the other guys already being used in those spots. I just think he is insurance if one of them falters, especially JJ.

I think we also got him to keep him away from other al teams like Detroit and Boston as much as anything else.

Nick really seems to have lost what little power he once had. Most everything he hits is soft and lazy..

[weams]

We sure do live by the home run though don't we.

[coolbeans]

That still was a pretty nice throw, I swear I though the ump signaled safe before the tag got there.

That's what they do when the runner is already safe. They don't wait for the tag, they signal safe as soon as the runner is there.

[WEAVERMAN]

Goes to prove, even when you make poor moves things can sometimes still work out. Buck is becoming headscratching strange with his bullpen management since the All-Star break. He apparently is not too keep on KRod.

I think you're right. I got the feeling that he doesn't want him, from original interview, and DD forced the issue. I bet that part of it, at least.

[MDK02]

In the last 27 games, the rays have won 23 of them. That is unreal.

[a20havoc]

Just messin with ya buddy.

No worries. I will say though, I do have a healthy respect for the lifelong O's fans. And even though I haven't been on board long, I still like this team--win or lose. You will never hear me talk the apocalyptic trash b/c the O's lost a few games or went cold at the plate. That's how it goes in baseball. At least we still have a shot at the playoffs. These crappy teams that beat us have to enjoy it. They're going nowhere, except on to another stadium where they'll probably lose.

We need someone in this line up to Parnell park a Train

Swing hard,just in case you hit something

What's that?

[eddie83]

Chen threw 119 pitches against the worst hitting team in all of baseball. I don't think its a mystery why he left him in, and I don't think its a big deal personally.

With a rested pen in a one run game? I have seen more questionable moves for sure but I still don't get it.

[Woody Held]

Lets go O's , insurance time

[Tony-OH]

We sure do live by the home run though don't we.

We sure do.

We sure do live by the home run though don't we.

And walks

[UMDTerrapins]

We should bring back the era of the bullpen vehicle.

I'd rep you if I weren't on my phone.
