    Heard on the radio that Parm is indeed banged up a little... Tweaked something on the catch in the ninth. It'll be fun to watch Wilkin get some swings. Hope he does well.

    No I don't... I only typed it because that was Gardy's comment after the game. He said "Robertson should have started with a slider" No idea if it was a dry joke or a serious statement... Robertson responded with "I left the pitch up... A fastball was fine if I would have kept it down". Regardless... I was just making a goofy comment... I doubt a slider call was why he was sent down... But who knows.

    Hey look... The Orioles have more of a getaway lineup than we do.

    Its just hard to know what's happening. Sometimes players have bad stretches in July... Sometimes they are in April... But they all have bad stretches. Thats the hard part about playing in your fifth major league game. No one is sure what you can do and if you start with a bad April stretch it isn't a good first impression. Obviously... If Hicks doesn't get it going... Like Stringer said... A trip to Rochester would be predictable but players can also get hot and that hot time could be right around the corner for him. You just don't know but each plate appearance against guys like Guthrie and Neise can only be good. Until that hot time... While he is struggling at the plate... Catch everything in CF... Use that hose when you get a chance. Say yes sir to Gardy, Bruno and Mauer/Morneau... Get to the park early each day and go over film. Most of all... Relax... Don't press and have fun. Look for your pitch and See the ball... Hit the ball...

    Thanks Knud... I wasn't aware. Although, I'd imagine that Mastro would want to play and is probably giving Gardy a pretty good Monty Python Black Knight impression right now. "Tis but a Scratch". At least I'd hope he is.
  6. Riverbrian
    Gardy must have really felt strongly that Robertson should have started Davis off with a slider.
  7. Riverbrian
    No worries... Give Hicks some time... Go over some film... See how he responds to some ideas. Let him get adjusted to facing Verlander and Hammel instead of AA guy and AA guy. With that said... I'd certainly consider giving Mastro a start tomorrow. He hasn't started yet... It's time.
  8. Riverbrian
    They couldn't pronounce his name so they blew it off.
  9. Riverbrian
    5 games in... 5 games competitive. So far so good!
  10. Riverbrian
    Mastro is in left
  11. Riverbrian
    Defense... Stomp stomp
  12. Riverbrian
    They all matter but yeah... It feels better in the ninth.
  13. Riverbrian
    Defense! Stomp stomp
  14. Riverbrian
    No doubt... Good call.
  15. Riverbrian
    Let's get another
  16. Riverbrian
    Yessssssss
  17. Riverbrian
    Mauer decided against patience that at bat.
  18. Riverbrian
    Don't send Hicks
  19. Riverbrian
    Yes... c'mon Mauer... Make that hurt. The Orioles are trying to give us one.
  20. Riverbrian
    Let's push something across.
  21. Riverbrian
    Submarines are pretty easy to read and typically a little slower to the plate. That's why I wanted him to go. It didn't work.
  22. Riverbrian
    Oops... My bad
  23. Riverbrian
    Do I have to type send Escobar in capital letters?
  24. Riverbrian
    Send Escobar... Send him...
  25. Riverbrian
    See... Can't say that wasn't hard on Plouffe can you.
