vs. PHILLIES, 8/11

[eddie83]

Damn. That hurts. 

[eddie83]

Tie game. 

[SteveA]

Holy Cow!   Garceau said the Phillies' bullpen wasn't very good so I looked it up.   Their pen has a 9.87 ERA for the season, worst in MLB.   League hitting .359 off the Philly pen on the season.

Let's chase Wheeler!

Tied up!

This team is scrappy. I’ll say that.

So, that’s not very good?

Tie game!

[eddie83]

We didn’t hit that bad first 5 innings. 

[eddie83]

Hays needs to slow the game down. No reason 0-0 to hack at that.

I was hoping they'd get their starter out of there earlier, but at this rate I'm expecting Wheeler either won't make it through the 6th, or will not come out for the 7th. So at least we get 3 --

And as I type this, Girardi is coming out to get rid of Wheeler. That means the Phillies pen has to get 10 outs. Wonderful. Let's score about 12 runs!

Tie game boys! Ruiz, Nunez, Santander, Sisco, and Alberto are shining with the bats this year. Let's hope it continues!

If the Orioles aren't going to bring up Mountcastle than I don't see who he is blocking in the minors. Anybody else is marginal or in the low minors. I'm as frustrated as anyone else with Davis, but there's just not much competition. 

Santander is making me more of believer as time goes on. I just wish he could get that OBP up. It's hard to be successful when you can't get on base at a .300 clip. 

We're on the board fellas! Wheeler is struggling a little bit, but we need to make him pay now. When he's on it's hard to score runs. 

The 60 man roster is practically full.   He's blocking someone from getting coaching and instruction in Bowie.   Whether that's Lowther or whoever.

From this morning.

I know our offense isn't sustainable, but it really has been fun to watch this year (outside of the Marlins). 

[eddie83]

This team is fun to watch except for one guy really.

That's a good point, hadn't thought about that. It would be cool to give Lowther a chance.
