I'm usually an optimist... but this game was over after the first inning.

Wieters and Davis should be gone by month's end, and with any luck (OK, with a LOT of luck), we'll get a Bedard-like haul in return.

There is a positive that comes out of this (sounds crazy, right)

At least the Orioles did something that should allow them to make a definitive decision on the direction of this team. While you can't call the Orioles a lost cause, this series hurt them bad, and it will take only a couple more loses for them to be out of the race and be sellers. Had we won 1 out of 3, the indecision on whether to go for it all or prepare for the future would have continued. I say get as much as you can for Davis and Chen, Wieters and O'Day if someone blows you away, and use the available money in the offseason to go out and get a TOR starter for once in my dang life.

Is Bordick making excuses again?

Of course

Bordick and Dempsey frustrate me with their homerism's

[MdSooner]

And Adam strikes out looking very bad at it as well

2 outs

LF'er battling the sun has an error for a double for Davis

I agree 100%, but you really think they'd go get a TOR starter? They'd go get 3 utility guys that can play multiple positions or someone that "can come into the game in any situation against a RHH or LHH. Maybe even someone coming off a major injury that wants to prove himself.

Deep left field but caught this time

3 outs

Gardner was just a few inches from having that bounce off of his head and going into the stands for a homer a la Canseco.

The way the O's are playing, this is something I'd have expected to see happen to them.

[WEAVERMAN]

Jimenez is back to being the joke he was most of last season. There is hope for Norris after all.

[MdSooner]

Nolan with the catch in rf

1 out

[MdSooner]

KKKKKK

[MdSooner]

3 up and 3 down

1-7 after complete

Why is Alex Rodriguez batting 3rd? Girardi should consult with some of the experts on OH about how inefficient that is.

Yeah I know. I think this could be a time where we shift the focus of this team from offense to pitching. We are gonna lose some significant bats (more than likely) with Davis, and Wieters leaving. If we could go out and get a solid pitcher and maybe trade Davis and Chen together to net some significant prospect arms, I would be really excited for our future (pitching wise).
