Hey guys what happened in baseball tonight? Been out of town the last two days.

I think the O's won 10-3 and Weiters went 5-5 with four home runs and a double or something like that

Is what I hear

I might have a couple details mixed up though

 

[Jangocube]

Well, basically, the Orioles all died. Sorry.

I don't believe you.

Man, I fucking hate Josh Hamilton.

He's a real killer!

Hells yes!

 

[CygnusXS]

I don't believe you.

They say the first step to acceptance in any tragedy is denial. Don't worry Jango, we're all here for you.

 

[Sharp]

Hells yes!

Aw shit sorry I got that mixed up, it was the Rangers and Hamilton, not the O's and Weiters. Sorry

 

[Malo]

I don't have access to the internet.

The O's march back to mediocrity has begun.

 

[cashman]

Man, I fucking hate Josh Hamilton.

You are the only person on the planet with this opinion.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Hey guys what happened in baseball tonight? Been out of town the last two days.

Nothing important. The Orioles are still in first place.

 

[Jangocube]

The O's march back to mediocrity has begun.

It's the Rangers, it's fine. We've called up like 5 middle relievers in two days because of those extra inning games and they have all sucked.

Now if we got beat by the Stankees I'd have a problem and I'd have to call my people to straighten that shit out.

Nothing important. The Orioles are still in first place.

This is true!

 

[CygnusXS]

Jack Wilson got on base.

 

[eznark]

Izturis now has as many home runs as Poo hole.

 

[GitarooMan]

Why does Bobby V insist on always pushing Bard to the brink of disaster before finally pulling him, it's fucking painful.

 

[Sanjuro]

He pretty much has to.

 

[Sanjuro]

 

[GitarooMan]

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....What a clusterfuck.

 

[ToxicAdam]

I wonder who has Hamilton in GAF's league of rejects ...oh, it's me. :blush

 

[Blearth]

The Red Sox are so much fun to watch. You just know something exciting is gonna happen every game.

 

[cashman]

This is just some random picture I found on the internet

 

[CygnusXS]

Killa Craig!

Didn't throw a fastball slower than 97.

 

[Link]

Screw you, Cubs. Everyone else did their job but you. Your team is bad and you should feel bad!

 

[Sanjuro]

It's Miller Time!

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Lmao Red Sox

 

[CygnusXS]

Oh hey, Braves are tied for first. Neat.

 

[Blearth]

Pretty awesome. Could you imagine how much more awesome he'd be if he could hit in October too?

 

[Ilive1up]

awesome win for the mets tonight.

had to get over batista giving up 4 early runs, but they bounced back.

impressive.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Pretty awesome. Could you imagine how much more awesome he'd be if he could hit in October too?

He hit the go-ahead home run in WS Game 6 last year after it went extras, but Washington was in debt to some St. Louis-based dealers and put in Oliver.

 

[Chris R]

So quick question about what just happened in the LA/SF game. Was that not an Infield Fly Rule because the ball didn't go high enough? If not, what did I miss?

 

[Mr. Enigma]

He hit the go-ahead home run in WS Game 6 last year after it went extras, but Washington was in debt to some St. Louis-based dealers and put in Oliver.

Oliver? I thought it was Feldman?

 

[Square Triangle]

The fucking Mariners.

 

[Square Triangle]

Holy shit Verlander

 

[cube444]

Pujols down to .190

When do the Angels start to get worried?

 

[clemenx]

More pitchers should get pissed like that.

 

[Jangocube]

At least one good thing happened today for the O's

Orioles top pitching prospect and 19-year-old Dylan Bundy had another outstanding performance on Monday for Class A Delmarva. Making just his sixth professional start, Bundy did give up his first run. However, it was an unearned run and came on a swinging strikeout and a throwing error. Bundy allowed just one hit in the outing and struck out eight of the batters he faced over three innings.
(Updated 05/08/12)

Fantasy Analysis

Bundy reached his pitch limit on Monday which is the reason he didn't come out for a fourth inning. He's now allowed just one unearned run on two hits and two walks over his first 20 innings as a professional with 33 strikeouts and a perfect ERA. Bundy is among the top prospects in all of baseball despite being a 19-year-old in his first pro season. That said, the Orioles will take it slow with him and he won't sniff the majors at all this year. He has just long-term Fantasy value at this time.

Pujols down to .190

When do the Angels start to get worried?

Maybe in June?

 

[Branduil]

Oliver? I thought it was Feldman?

Feldman was put in after Oliver sucked like everyone except Washington knew he would.

I hate you for making me remember this.

That Home Run in Game 6....

... that should have been the moment right there. I think that's what hurts me the most about that game. Hamilton had his crowning moment to be shown over and over again on highlight reels, but they couldn't finish it out.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Feldman was put in after Oliver sucked like everyone except Washington knew he would.

Thought you were rooting for the Cardinals?

 

[cashman]

Oliver gave up 2 very weakly hit balls in that inning btw, not completely his fault.

 

[Sharp]

Thought you were rooting for the Cardinals?

He was.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

I hate you for making me remember this.

According to Fangraphs, Feldman held LHBs to a .189 wOBA last year. Lefties had a .265 wOBA against Oliver. :lol

Descalso is garbage against LHB but Jay didn't have much of a platoon split last season.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Feldman will be the fourth starter come playoffs.

 

[Talon]

A beautiful night for baseball at Wrigley. Plus, we won!

Belligerent Cubs fan in a Soriano jersey tried to pick a fight in our section and got kicked out. I don't blame him.

 

[RumblingRosco]

Pujols down to .190

Better question; has Pujols average ever been this low at any point in his career (excluding, say, the first week or so of the season)? I am guessing no. I wish there was a website that had his avg. for every season sortable by any number of games into that season.

 

[RobotHaus]

Anyone watching the Cards/D-Backs game? The commentators for FSArizona are talking about some couple in the stands, pretty humorous.

Also, we will never get a shutout. Ever.

 

[jakncoke]

wow at josh hamilton game, heard the stats on the radio on the way home. damn..

 

[McNei1y]

lol .008 above the Braves. Take that!!

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Bases loaded and we couldn't do shit. Fuck!

Also, we will never get a sweep. Ever.

PITTSBURGH (AP) Rod Barajas knows the Pittsburgh Pirates didn't pick up the veteran catcher in free agency to hit .131 with no homers and no RBI during the first month of the season.
Yet even as his woes mounted, manager Clint Hurdle stuck by Barajas, sending him to the batter's box with the tying run on third and two outs in the ninth against Washington on Tuesday night.
''I thought what the heck? He's hit a few homers before,'' Hurdle said.

... srs?
