Fuck Mo. That is all.
You have no idea how happy I'm going to be for each blown save the rest of the season. And I hope there are many.
Fuck Mo. That is all.
From Elias: J.J. Hardy's 17th home run of the season capped a four-run sixth inning that propelled the Orioles to a 9-2 victory at Kansas City. The American League's starting All-Star shortstop has hit 69 home runs, all while playing as a shortstop, in his three seasons with Baltimore, by far the most by any big-league shortstop over that span. (Troy Tulowitzki stands at distant second, with 55.) Hardy's homers have maintained the Orioles' power-hitting tradition at that position. Since 1982 (Cal Ripken Jr.'s first season as the team's regular shortstop), Orioles shortstops have hit a total of 622 home runs, by far the most for any major-league team's shortstops; second place belongs to the Brewers, with 460 homers from their shortstops - 75 of which were hit by Hardy from 2005 to 2009!
Our next SIX series are against mediocre to bad teams. There is only one team that we play with a record above .500.
3 vs. Houston - Last place in the AL West - .337
3 vs. Seattle - 3rd in the AL West - .476
2 @ San Diego - 4th in the NL West - .458
3 @ San Francisco - Last place in the NL West - .442
3 @ Arizona - 2nd in the NL West - .514
3 vs Colorado - 3rd in the NL West - .477
Anything less than a 15-2 record out of this stretch and I'll be disappointed. After this little run, the schedule ramps up a bit.
Don't forget, we will have Hammel and Feldman pitching against them.
I still have hope for Feldman. All you guys are dumping on him for his latest poor showing, but what about the 3 good outings prior to that? Time will tell.
