Orioles vs. Rays 4/10/09 Game 1

[PaulFolk]

Jim Johnson is in for the 8th. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I might've preferred to see Danys Baez pitch another inning.

[PaulFolk]

So I just got back in the country yesterday and missed quite a bit--is Guthrie going for us tomorrow? Or do none of us really know?

Yes, Guthrie starts tomorrow.

Might as well. I wonder if JJ can go two...

[Tank]

I would've left Baez in for 1 more, then brought JJ in for the 9th. Oh well, lets finish this one out.

[The Rick]

Yes, Guthrie starts tomorrow.

Cool, thanks! I wonder if TB will skip their #5 too? I'd rather not have to see Shields pitch tomorrow.

[itsernst]

He gave up a single...CUT HIM!

[PaulFolk]

Nope, it's Guthrie vs. Niemann tomorrow. Then Eaton vs. Shields on Sunday.

[Rex Thunder]

Um... Baez for closer anyone?

Hell no. Baez is obviously a head case but with great stuff. You start putting him in the most pressurized situations, and I would heavily fear a digression to his old ways. Right now he seems to have exercised his demons and is excelling in this role. KEEP IT THAT WAY!

Hell no. Baez is obviously a head case but with great stuff. You start putting him in the most pressurized situations, and I would heavily fear a digression to his old ways. Right now he seems to have exercised his demons and is excelling in this role. KEEP IT THAT WAY!

Not trying to argue, but why would you say he's a head case?

AFAIK, his arm was hurt, not his head...

Not unless they want Shields on short rest. WE had a day off- they didn't. Their original opener got rained out.

[The Rick]

Might as well. I wonder if JJ can go two...

I wouldn't stretch JJ for two, but i'm not the manager, so who knows.

Nope, it's Guthrie vs. Niemann tomorrow. Then Eaton vs. Shields on Sunday.

Awesome, thanks for the info.

Damn you Longoria.

[zff4]

This is another ball game right now. JJ gave him a cookie.

[trk001]

Longoria is locked in to start the year. Jeezy peezy.

[mrbig1]

OMG, I can't believe it.:cussing:

[JTrea81]

Well that helps my fantasy team. Leave JJ in there DT...
