Jimenez starting on Sunday (O's down 6-0)

[Frobby]

That's the current headline of Roch's latest blog entry.    For some reason, I find that hilarious.    You mean, Ubaldo hasn't thrown a pitch and we're losing 6-0 already?    It often feels like that that when he pitches.

At least with Miley, it takes a third of an inning before we're down 6-0.

Buck is saving Bundy for the playoffs.

You often hear that there's competition among the pitchers in a starting  rotation. Wade has given Ubaldo something to shoot at.

I say bench the vets. They are bringing the team down. Then you have guys like Trumbo crying over being pied. Shut up and hit more HR's. 

I know Buck likes to keep the clubhouse chemistry up, but we're at the point in the year where all the impending FA's should step to the side. Ubaldo, Miley, Smith. Let's see what the young guys can do.

Trumbo did nothing more than exhibit momentary annoyance at being pied, a spontaneous reaction while being interviewed.     Did he even say anything?    I don't think so.     I really don't think it's a big deal.   And of course, he was being interviewed because he had just delivered the game winning hit.

We'll be seeing more of the kids starting about now.    Playoff odds now at 0.6%.

Please, please.  But I'll believe it when I see it.  This whole season has been unprecidentedly (did I just make up a word) confusing to me.

No but you misspelled it - "unprecedentedly" is the correct usage.    But good choice of words!  I hope Frobby can dispel more myths today.

Guess this isn't my year to finally win that elusive spelling bee title
