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

[donaldson79]

O'day is here-and-there. Britton has it been getting it done for us in the pen this year.

O'Day has been a really good pick up for ya overall hasn't he? In fact, I kind of look at the O's, as Texas East. Respectfully of course

O'Day is a situational guy. He's good if used correctly.

True. And the way Buck likes to match-up, he could be in there for only one batter.

His stats look good and we struggle against him.

I never know what to expect with Ogando coming in.

I'm not necessarily a Knox fan, but that interview there with the Dutch guys was pretty good.

lol.. understand that. It pains me to see the A's run away with your division. Or even see the Angels in the mix, for that matter.

The Rangers have a flavor that I've respected since back when Larry Parrish was hitting the long ball in a fruitless season. Part of me always roots for them to take the West.

I'd assume you were a total lunatic if you felt differently.

How does Cruz look in the outfield? Will you all re-sign him?

I've still got confidence in him. Not sure about other O's fans. A lot of time he's in there for such a small amount of time that one bad outing can make him look worse, numbers-wise, than he really is. When Johnson was traded to the A's, I actually thought O'day was going to take over the closer role. Atleast on an interim basis.

True. I used to have a lot of faith when he came out of the pen.

 

[Justinkm83]

What a garbage hit

 

[romeo212000]

Well hello bad Ogando.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Something about Ogando's delivery has always been strange to me. It's like he never really extends his arm.

 

[Justinkm83]

TAKE HIM OUT WASH. Don't wait until we're behind.

I think if the Oriole brass were thinking with their head and not their heart, they'll make a big push to resign him. Players like Markakis and Hardy have been with the O's when things were ugly.. and I mean, really ugly. And while I love that Nick Markakis has stuck it out with the O's for as long as he has, there is no reason on God's green earth that the O's should think about low-balling Cruz (again) over re-signing him.. or even Hardy.

Too late.

Great job Ogando. Great pitching until you showed up.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Get him out!!!! This Joseph has a .094 BA...

wow....excellent memory there sir.

And I go back to the O's days with Belanger, Brooks, Boog, Blair, Palmer, and of course the ever lovable Earl at the helm.....damn good team for a decade plus.

 

[spicesadie]

Sorry to vent so late guys, I just got in and had to catch up on tape. As usual, Ogando screwed the pooch again. Don't like him, off way more than on.
