vs. ATHLETICS, 8/23

[Norfolk orioles]

Ok now I'm a little worried.

[Malike]

Number 5 starters put up stinkers from time to time. LHB kill him.

[Norfolk orioles]

Ps in Oakland it's 1-0 right now.

So I guess there is that?

[TouchemAll]

Man there is no doubt that NONE of the pitching staff can keep the ball in the yard :slytf:

[WEAVERMAN]

Wow, it's HR derby, can we play?

[ExileAngelos]

What do you know. Another home run allowed.

[MDK02]

Our guys should be able to hit their pitcher the same way, but they can't.

When you throw the exact same pitch twice in a row... sometimes they recognize it.

Bad pitch calling.

Typical orioles, cant get out a lineup that cant hit, and we cant hit a pitcher that cant win.

[Ori-Al]

We've defended our home turf really well since the All-Star break.

It really incredible. I don't know why I expected more but I did. Our staff has to do a better job.

I dont know if Nick is hurt..but there is definitely something wrong with him. He doesnt scare anyone anymore.

I think it is that herniated disk. As much as it was again downplayed regarding seriousness, there is often subtle, residual nerve injury that reduces strength. Nick is not this guy at all.

Tell that to Adam Jones.

[LA2]

I don't think he'll be healthy enough in 2013. Roch or someone said the Orioles don't think he's moving around very well.

Really? That's bad news--I assumed the fact he was hitting well in the rehab games meant he'd be up soon.

[tntoriole]

This is not what we needed. This team doesnt come back ... this year.

Fixed that for you. Lol
