Kinda sucks.. Akin threw one bad pitch. Pitch count a bit elevated but as has been discussed.. Will Hyde yank him after one inning?

Bro, was just trying to give you some advice on proper decorum.

Decorum in what context? It's an internet baseball forum. I'm new here, I did not know that this place was full of Human Resources workers with blue hair.

2nd batter next inning is a lefty, maybe Hyde gives him 2 more batters.

You have to imagine they're hoping for 2 from him. It's going to be a long game either way. 

 

How stretched out do we think Voth is?

I was typing in one of the threads and missed the top of the first and just saw that we are already done... I guess I shouldn't be to upset because I kind of expected an L today with the lineup we put out there to face Bieber.

I hope I'm wrong and they surprise me

You aren't new here, no one believes that.

But here you go, a link to the Board Rules and Policies.  Shocked you haven't read them yet.

Voth is a batting practice pitcher.

I don't think he's going more than three.  Would be nice if he could soak up 4+.

He was a pleasant surprise last season... maybe he can surprise again.

Orioles sign Hicks and we think, well, his bat must be better than McKenna in Cf against right-handers.

Orioles are like, Surprise bitches, you get a lineup of Hicks and McKenna against righthanders. Sigbot 3000 says so!

Surprised that Akin is out of the game (according to Gameday).

I've never posted here before. Let's enjoy baseball.

And of course.. one inning for Akin

[Bemorewins]

Wait did we just burn Akin for 1 inning?? I don't believe this. This seems like a non-managerial decision.

There's people that will spin this to try to make a dissenting opinion seem foolish, but there's really no reason on May 31 to see this bad of a lineup. Not to even mention the potential pitching fiasco.
