Series Thread: It's the O's 5/3-5

[WastinSomeTime]

Astros so far have put up a 5 spot against CJ in the 3rd.

Elvis will blow this opportunity.

Choo is not himself at all.

Ya know, if his ankle is this much of a problem he needs to be on the DL - retro active to whatever date - and let someone else take those ABs.

Really looking bad now with Choo k'ng out

Way too early to be thinking like this. How many big hits did Odor come up with on that road trip?

Problem is, we're playing just well enough to justify keeping him in the lineup, but you're right. The ankle is clearly bothering him.

So much for my reverse psycho-ology.

If the ankle is the problem, just might not be seeing the ball well right now, doesn't seem to be the ankle to me

As I was saying earlier about how "for the most part" I cheer for our former players to do well. Well, that's total horseshit when it comes to that self-serving, narcissistic ass-wipe.

I really don't see it as the ankle, don't even know where the evidence for that would be

 

[Bmurph]

Got a couple pitches to hit there and then the K, screwed that up

 

[scotsman1948]

that was pathetic. man on 2nd with no outs and can't get him home

 

[jta4437]

Can't get Adam Jones tonight

 

[Justinkm83]

Man, I like choice and I think he's going to be a mainstay in our lineup but once adduci is healthy they need to send him to AAA and let him get his confidence back.

Check page 6. We're on the same page here.

Yeah, IDK. He was certainly due to cool off.

I was just looking at his SO/W ratio and it's not nearly as good as I would have thought for a guy who works the pitcher. In 2012 it was 2-1 and last year it was damn near 1-1.....Wow.....I swear I didn't know this.

Henderson Alvarez with an 88 pitch CG today

 

[Justinkm83]

I've just about had it with EA. He shouldn't be in the 2 hole. I know we really don't have anybody else but we have the guy with the worst AVG w/ RISP, no power, and batting in the .250's in our 2 spot in the line-up.

 

[jta4437]

Choice in LF

Just saw that. Great job there.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Choice in LF

No kidding. He needed to get back to the wall quick and then be ready. If he does that he might be able to leap and catch that.

Great throw in for the Marlins in that big mia/tor trade
