4/19 - O's at Redsox

[fansince71]

For the Orioles:

Brian Roberts - 2B

Adam Jones - CF

Nick Markakis - RF

Aubrey Huff - 1B

Ty Wigginton - 3B

Luke Scott - DH

Ryan Freel - LF

Chad Moeller - C

Robert Andino - SS

Koji Uehara - P

Moeller gets his first chance to catch Uehara. Andino is part of the Sunday lineup that allows a regular, in this case Cesar Izturis, to take a day off.

For the Red Sox:

Ellsbury - CF

Pedroia - 2B

Ortiz - DH

Youkilis - 1B

Drew - RF

Bay - LF

Lowell - 3B

I don't mind this really...Izturis looks like he could use a day off, and I'm tired of watching his futile at bats any way. I wish they would have rested him last night, though. He is a much better right-handed hitter historically.

It's payback time. The O's will break the Sunday curse. Book it!

[Marcus]

I agree Lester has looked bad his last two outtings.

[Orioles Magic]

I hope Koji can give us six strong innings today. This is as good a Sunday as any to finally get in the win column for once.

[Rex Thunder]

This may go against popular opinion- but I really wish Pie could get 2 games in a row. He didn't look great last night- but the guy is never gonna get in a groove playing every other day. I'm tired of Freel.

And Lester looks like he's back...

Yep, I'm feeling it. A good start and win and everything will look a little brighter. Can't wait for Bergesen.

[Hank Scorpio]

Man, I'd love to have Lester in our rotation.

I don't like Freel, either.

But Pie would have zippy chance against Lester. He is the definition of a tough lefty.

I'm sure that's why they sat him- but sometimes I think it's situations like that- the whole reverse trend/psychology thing that works for players. No pressure and low expectations. Who knows. Hopefully Freel will surprise- but I really don't expect him to have any better luck against Lester.

And as far as having Lester on our team- sadly- you could say that about almost every Sox starter. I hate them.

[Rex Thunder]

Moeller's out to get a win!!

[Mike B]

Moeller's out to get a win!!

Great catch.

[BRob51]

nice job Moeller, way to elbow the glasses off a Sox fan.
