Wednesday afternoon April 17: Orioles go for sweep of Twins

[O's84]

I forgot it was a day game, dumb me.

And that fastball up in the zone, he's so good today at positioning it right at the top for chases.

Do we know Suarez’ pitch limit?

No.  But at this rate, I'm curious to see how far he can go.  We're into the 2nd time through the order here.

[O's84]

That was just downright nasty.

[Moose Milligan]

That run is silly.  What a whiff on Julien.

[Roy Firestone]

WOW. I dont know if this guy can sustain this, but this one hell of a debut after 7 years of obscurity.

Suarez with TEN swings-and-misses through three

[Tony-OH]

Me: Wondering if Suarez is getting tired after going 3-2.

Suarez, 97.2 MPH fastball for the K to end the inning.

Me: Nope

[Spy Fox]

3 innings in and I think Suarez already earned his next start, even if he gives up some runs later. 

[Fiver6565]

What an opportunity this is for Suarez.  Teams as good as the Os don't always have rotation spots just sitting there ready to be taken.  He's a long shot but seems he got the memo, at least early in this one.  Fun story too.

[Roy Firestone]

I said I'd be thrilled with 4....but hey, he might get us 5 at this rate...

That was a missile.  102 off the bat, a foot to the right and that's in his grill.

Just a missile?   Not a piss missile?

Last time out, on April 17 [Edit: April 12] in Norfolk, he threw 87 pitches.

Why would he have a limit?  Serious question, not a criticism.

Anyone else watching on MLBTV have to watch this awfully written/edited mockumentary Joe Maddon commercial over and over?

Sometimes you are good. Sometimes you are lucky. I will take either!
