gonzo game 2

[tedman2012]

I'm still waiting for hunters 3up-3down inning

i would prefer the meek for closer . meek was the signing by brady andersons work .

It's not that they get hits or on base...it's the fact that it's ALWAYS the leadoff guy...ALWAYS

manny would have went and got the molinas ball and took the out . it looks like they are streching britton out with patton 11 games away . man matt killed that sac fly dam that wind . back to .500

I wouldn't take anyone out for Patton, I'd make him the extra.

more or less the o's don't want to lose patton . i can see them trading away norris . anyway the starters need to hear the footsteps and pick it up .

This Bud's for us!!He ain't going anywhere..plus KG's sukking right now in the minors so he's not ready anyway.

Glad to see Gonzo got the win.

that bud is a dub avg stuff !!!! kg want be next one up atm . i think it will be johan or britton .also , don't forget berry is on the 40 man and aa to majors no big deal only thing is all are lhp . so it seems the way the o's have jerked britton around has been a big part of his problems ! it was nice to hear bundy will start pitching in games soon . i don't care who the starters are but earn it and own it . in other words avg stuff i don't care just WIN dammit !!!! it is hell when your set up guys are better than your closers . i like these guys going 2 inning and + to save the wear and tear on the bp . someone said this last year they should have done it (me ) !

You crack me up, Ted with your opinions about the O's jerking around Britton.

 

[NJBuckO's]

Now that he's carved out a role as a 2-3 inning guy i would be surprised if he ever starts again in Balt. Could still be nice trade bait.

according to trade rumors ike davis would have been a done deal !! but hell britton would out hit him . then again we wouldn't have gotten cruz and we wouldn't be a .500 team ! yes the orioles way the next dennis matinez come on down . oh one bad game they will be back to trash talking .

oh really so in 11 . the o's sent zach (24) down !!!! we was not in a race . 10 of 16 qs 6-6 3.47 before july 8th after that day 6-7 4.05 era . no one else would have sent him down . then they go and sign wada and chen and pay millions to do so . last year bring him up and wait 10 days for his first start that is real fair to a sinker ball pitcher . even the britton haters know that wasn't right . young guys you build them up not tear them down .

Sending Britton down in 2011 was a smart move by the Orioles. It extended the time he was under team control.

Your really complaining about signing Wada and Chen? Even if Britton was pitching up to major league standards, the Orioles still needed more pitching. I've never heard anyone complain about the O's going after international talent. It's long overdue.

If Britton was pitching like he is now or the first half of his rookie year, he wouldn't have been spent to the minors the last couple of years. He was bad the last two years. It's that simple. I don't know why you don't get it. There is no conspiracy against Britton and he wasn't screwed over.

I'm not sure where you got Britton's splits for 2011. His era pre all star break was 4.05. His post all star break era was 5.76.

they sent him down on the 8th with a era of 4.05 .
here is one for you this is the month that bucky went with the sweatie one during this span zach had 4 good outings and then a bad one and he gets shipped out . the life of zach . Baltimore Orioles 2013 Pitching Statistics - ESPN

 

[tedman2012]

during this month feldman was a huge .13 era better than britton . hammel was worse in 5 starts Baltimore Orioles 2013 Pitching Statistics - ESPN 1 bad start they should've been gone fair is fair .

3 starts for a total of 16 innings and a 1.63 whip are good outings?

Ted, please stop with the one start crap. It goes way beyond that with Britton.

No wait, you convinced me. There is a conspiracy against Britton. :rollseyes:
