vs. RAYS, 5/03

[Moshagge3]

BABIP just hates the Orioles today. O's have not scored a single run off the Rays bullpen this year, so they better get their bats going soon.

The amount of hyperbole by you gentleman in regards to Chen is off the charts.

He is a bit better than league average for a lefty. And he is a good value. And lucky to have this d.

[eddie83]

Not a good day for Chen no matter what the stats say. Isn't finishing off hitters or innings in clutch situations. We are also in another hitting funk. Why?i HAVE NO IDEA.

They had 2 hits that inning on well placed grounders. We lined out.

[Malike]

Uppercut swing by Snider isn't doing it.

[Moshagge3]

How is Snider not even getting a piece of these?

[ArtVanDelay]

And Snider takes a 1-2 pitch right down the middle.

[Malike]

His pronounced uppercut swing?

[Malike]

9 baserunners over 5 isn't only "seeing eye" hits. its an ability to shutdown the opponent.

Chen is doing fine, you are simply overreacting. The bats suck today. If the Orioles had a 6-2 lead right now, everyone would be proud of Chen's outing.

That guy who keeps yelling "ADAM" should be punched in the face. How drunk do you have to be to sit there and chant that through an entire baseball game?

I edited your post.

That may explain it.

Just awful. Awful plate appearances again. Just like Game 1. Carbon copy.

Strike zone is huge today. Gotta swing the bats.

He has allowed 2 runs, not 5.

That last pitch was a foot off the plate.

[ArtVanDelay]

Im ready to move on Snider and De Aza and give Reimold a shot in one of their slots.

I'd much rather see Lough on the field than either of those guys. At least he gives us plus defense.

[ArtVanDelay]

5 innings not 5 runs.

[eddie83]

5 innings not 5 runs.

My point was he hasn't allowed 5 runs, not like he is getting crushed.

Jays had a 6-0 lead. They are now losing 8-6.
