Was it an injury or just bad pitching? I am following on gamecast.

DT and the trainer came to the mound, they chatted, and Simon left.

Sarfate came in with virtually no warm-up.

So, this is some kind of injury issue.

Sarfate getting extra warm-up time on the mound.

What are you basing this on?? He looked solid in the spring- the first time I'd ever really seen him. I thought he was okay in his debut against the Yankees as well. Of course as I'm writing this he just gave up another homerun, but you know what- they were all solo. Keep throwing strikes Alfredo and let's go.

Can we let the guy pitch more than 6 total innings though before you assess his skill.

Based on his stuff. Second time I have seen him pitch and I don't think he has the stuff to get big hitters out. Didn't see the stuff he was throwing in spring training.

Can we calm down? Let's see his resolve before we bury him. It's a 2 run game!
All due respect, Simon doesn't belong on the roster. It's one thing to preach patience for the arrival of our prospects but this is the majors and you play major leaguers. Jeez, I'm feeling like Old5 guy or Jtrea right now.

If it's an injury they give Sarfate all the time he needs to warmup, right?

      Food prices at Camden Yards

      By Roy Firestone · Posted

      I think baseball's food concessions are largely an overpriced rip-off. The hot dog served at OPCY is the highest priced hot dog in the majors..In Miami you can get a hot dog at the park for 3 dollars.The entire price for attending a sporting event with a good seat is getting out of hand, and so is ALL entertainment.If you want a really good seat to see a top act you might have to take out a loan. Disneyland and Disney World are getting so expensive, that a middle class family of four simply is priced out of access.But back to baseball concessions. I dont eat meat, but I wouldn't buy a 9 dollar hot dog anywhere , let alone OPCY. I bring my food with me. It's the last line of affordability we're going to have in attending a ball game. Concession prices are unfair, but at least you can eat before the game...or  bring your own water and peanuts. Otherwise it's a shame...and it's wrong.

      What happens next? Mayo debut or Holliday back up?

      Pretty much how I feel.

      I don't know what got into him. I wonder if he made an adjustment or someone helped "fix" something..

      I'd rather a thread by Roy saying that we should cut him now. The reverse jinx works both ways, so I think this thread is a biiiiiig mistake. That said, he was so good this series. Love that for him. On a broader point, this org does something right that's beyond the talent in the room. I assume it's advance scouting our opponents and preparation, but we're a step above.

      Food prices at Camden Yards

      By Orioles Jim · Posted

      It does tend to have the lowest (out the door) prices but buyer beware a bit. We used them for Opening Day and it was a bit of a debacle (the first private seller never delivered, then they got us a second “preferred seller” that also never delivered, and then FINALLY came through with a third “preferred seller” that came through, albeit it took more than a few minutes). Dealing with all of this, while waiting on hold, and missing the start of Opening Day festivities definitely sucked and made for a stressful situation.  But, yesterday, for just me, for a matinee game in which the out the door price was $9 and I was already going to be arriving midway through the 1st inning, it worked great. So it might just depend on your situation, but like I said, buyer beware.

      From DFA’d to producing like one of MLB’s best hitters: Ryan O’Hearn has found his groove in Baltimore

      Crowded?   How about the at bats would be almost nonexistent with Holliday at 2B and Westburg at 3B.

      Webb has been great since coming over, and he wasn't awful before. It's hard to believe the Angels waived him, but their loss is our gain.
