Stinky performance imminent!

Seriously?

Seriously. He did it on the theory that if the pitcher was knocked out in the 1st he might want to switch DH's depending on who they bring in. They had to make a rule against it. Read about it in Weaver on Strategy.

I think I seen this movie before.

Too bad. Buck could have had Flaherty come to the plate in the pitchers spot and then bring in Miley in the bottom of the inning. Like when Earl used to DH Steve Stone.

Back when Earl did he had the pitcher batting first not ninth.

Does anyone think that four runs will hold up?

No.

But I also don't think we will be held scoreless for the next 8 innings.

[Aristotelian]

Let's not load the bases for Harper.

[isestrex]

Lordy. Pitch a good game please.

WE DON'T EVEN NEED A GOOD GAME... just a simple mediocre game of 5.2 innings and 3 ER.

Why is he pitching like he hasn't seen a baseball in months?

[allquixotic]

Does anyone think that four runs will hold up?

I have exactly zero confidence that four will hold up, but the Orioles offense is likely not finished even if they end up facing the Nats bullpen.

I think Miley goes 4 IP 6 ER and we lead it 10-6 going into the 7th inning. That's my prediction.

Well, I think many here wouldn't mind if the Nats were in the AL East and played us 18 games a season. Nats Park would be even more of a Camden Yards South than it already is. There's something about this team: we're just ridiculously good at defeating the Nationals.

But is Miley bad enough that even our play-thing Nats team can get back in the game? I think he is. Miley's one of the worst busts we've had since, uh..... Lemme think..... Parra.

Fixed that for you.

[Going Underground]

Miley didn't cover the bag.

[Aristotelian]

You stink Miley. Why are you just standing there?

[mrbig1]

A DP would be nice.

[isestrex]

God one more year of this guy too...

Yeah but that was a DH. That was different.

He had to name a starting pitcher for this game and it is Miley.

Is it just me or is Thorn fired up a bit tonight?
