Andrew: Where is the sweater vest? Who do you think you are dressing like that? Gordon Gecko?
if a tree fell down in a forest with no one around, would anyone be able to hear the constant sound of brummie oriole blogging about his andrew mcphail hatred?
i'm torn, but i think not.
In the 1st inning Dave Johnson was riding Adam about playing to shallow and I didn't agree but Adam sure proved Dave right.
Berken is slowly starting to show that he's destined for the pen. If Danys gets traded Berken should be slotted in his spot. The kid can't get through a lineup 3 times.
Berken pitched pretty well. It really is fun to watch these young guys pitch.
If Jones made that catch it might still be 0-0.
Lifeless bats again....
THE CROW MUST GO !!
Roch,
It's about time Albers gets some starts instead of Berken.
Thoughts?

No way is he stretched out enough to do that. - Roch
How come Huff isnt in the six hole and let Scott bat number four?
Good call Roch, it seems like Albers pitches every game. They need to let him rest a little between outings. Its getting out of hand. He was injured last year.
Again...come on bats. This is ridiculous. Can we get a line drive??? Jones & Markakis havent been very clutch as of late. Jones got lucky w/ his infield hit the other day.
HIT !
Glad we signed the Landry kid out W&M, having scouted him this past spring if he can improve his arm action and work on his secondary stuff, with that size and arm strength he could turn into a steal. He was high on a lot of peoples list in the spring but he suffered thru a sub par year.
no, the crow must not go!! berken gives up two runs tonight!!
reactionaries, please, sit back and just watch the game. try to learn something. this is chess, not checkers.
Bedard took years before he became an effective pitcher and economize pitches. How long did they just blindly run DCab out there? Yet here people are wanting to throw the towel in on Berken already.The O's just don't score him many runs.Jones is just over rated as a CF.The O's just have a slow sluggish line up which makes it even more imperative that they get Figgins in the offseason to give them some life.
