vs. BLUE JAYS, 7/05

[Moose Milligan]

Lol Gary Thorne "Orioles hit home runs as well as they give them up" or something like that.

Put the scotch down, Gary.  We've got a lot of game left.

I've just tuned in this inning, and this umpire is horrendous.  Jobbed us on at least 3 calls this inning.

I was actually just thinking he has been good. He is calling the edges in the pitcher’s favor....particularly the outside edge to lefties. And he has been consistent about it. 

Sanchez has been struggling mightily despite some very favorable calls.

Or you can cut them.  I bet if the cut one the others will pay attention.

They don't have the roster flexibility or depth in AAA to just cut a guy, but I'd definitely bench a guy and then if it happens a again then cut him.

Bundy's offspeed looking good.

[Moose Milligan]

Bundy looks good.  So far.

DSJ has to be the odd man when Stewart is ready to return after his rehab assignment, right? I guess they can theoretically get rid of Davis but that's unlikely to happen at this point. DSJ is terrible at every aspect of the game and isn't even a good hitter anymore.

OOOO! Jack Daniel's with the Link Wray soundtrack!

I've had about enough of DSJR.  I feel bad saying it cause I liked him earlier this season but his defense is atrocious.  That was inexcusable.

What happened?

[scOtt]

Another WIDE strike.

[Moose Milligan]

Villar's idiot baserunning ways actually worked out.

Oh well, we ended up with a de facto double!

Someone like Smith or Broxton could be made an example of.  Obviously you don't do it to Villar if he gets picked off.

 

By if I mean when.

[O's84]

Villar awareness on the basepaths are puzzling, to be very kind.
