6/11 Mariners at Orioles

[Hank Scorpio]

I'm watching Dances with Wolves.

[mrbig1]

Jones, Scott, and Mora coming up. We need some runs now.

[Rex Thunder]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why on EARTH would you be playing Ichiro in left centerfield against a guy whose fastball tops out at 87 mph?

And why on Earth would you play the infield in in the top of the 5th inning when you're facing Garrett Olson!??!?!?!

Where is something I can pound my head on?

Don't know how you guys do it. I watch every game- but it's been too brutal lately to put any time into blogging on here. I have to be doing something else... like watching basketball, or eating, or playing video games, or writing... SOMETHING!

I can't find a single Oriole right now, other than Luke Scott, that looks like he has any confidence. Maybe Reimold... but it's just amazing how black and white this season has been- and how it changes on a dime.

If we lose to Garrett Olson- it will be the ultimate slap in the face IMO. I might have do down a few shots if that happens.

[Hank Scorpio]

Thorne is so backwards.

Even he's driving me nuts.

[Rex Thunder]

This is so frustrating, I am actually considering watching an NBA game.

Are you kidding? Granted, I'm a Lakers fan- but it's the Finals! Not just "an nba game."

That, and I have 2 televisions in my living room!

[BillySmith]

These past two weeks or so have been so depressing. It's hard to keep the faith. A loss here, at home, against Olson, is hard to swallow. I know it's not about this year, but jeez.

[Who's On 1st]

I'm watching Burn Notice and put my DVR to work for the O's game.

[Hank Scorpio]

You know it's bad when Jones is late on an 88mph elevated fastball.

Ugh.

[Hank Scorpio]

This is as bad of a team-wide slump as I can remember, seriously.

And Trembley sits one of the guys who's heating up.

I know, I know, Uehara + Zaun sitting in a tree, etc... but Wieters is going to have to catch him at some point. There's no reason to have him on the bench.

[mrbig1]

I hate to be right. I knew our bat were going to drop dead.

[Hank Scorpio]

How many comebackers have we hit in the past week?

We have to be setting a record.

[JCK]

Bryce Harper. Stephen Strasburg. Bryce Harper. Stephen Strasburg...

[Great 2BA FL Gator]

How many comebackers have we hit in the past week?

We have to be setting a record.

I was thinking the same thing. This offense is so frustrating now.

[Hank Scorpio]

I hate to be right. I knew our bat were going to drop dead.

In order to drop dead, they would have had to have been standing to begin with.

They've been dead for two weeks.

[mrbig1]

We need to walk Ichiro every at bat and I'm not joking.
