6/21 Orioles at Philadelphia

[O-The-Memories]

Please don't let this be a repeat of last night with all the stranded runners. Andino at least battled, which is more than I can say about Wieters and Mora that inning. I'd like for our hitters to see a few more pitches today. Hamels has been starting off most hitters with off-speed pitches.

Greg Dobbs goes yard on an elevated fastball. 1-0 Phillies.

Well it's the same Guthrie... Does anyone think we should try him in the pen?

Jeremy... get the ball DOWN... :angryfire:

[JTrea81]

Well you knew that was coming, it was just a matter of when. Luckily it was just a solo shot.

On the Phillies game feed the announcers just pointed out that Guthrie leads the AL in HR allowed...

[O-The-Memories]

Guthrie needs to use his change-up more, it's been too many fastballs.

Feliz just missed a HR to left. Come on Guts, get it together!

[Saintbird]

Wow that was close...:eektf:

Considering that his trend has been to get hit hard in the first two innings and then settle in for the next 4-5 innings, I think trying him in the pen would not be a great idea.

Good point, so do we trade him or just keep him here and try to limit the damage? I say we trade him for Trashel.:laughlol:

Their Cheesesteaks there are delicious!

Wow Guthrie battling.:laughlol:...well nevermind.

[O-The-Memories]

I think we should keep Guthrie unless we get blown away by an offer. We still have plenty of question marks in our rotation, and Guthrie has been solid for us the last two years. It could still be that the WBC messed him up this year.

If Guthrie can make Hamels throw five pitches, so can everyone else:)
