[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Yefri Ramirez is a RH making his debut start for the O's.

He's replacing Jim Palmer, who woke up this morning with a very bad sunburn.

[OH FOY]

Nothing special about this kid, Sox ought to beat the snot of him.

[Spudboy]

At the same time it has seemed to me in the past that the Sox bats struggle against guys that they have never seen.

 

f*** that s***.

 

Pound this kid into oblivion.

Concerning Showalter, Robert DeNiro shares your sentiment.

[OH FOY]

Saw this kid last year, with the Yanks then, the Hartford Yard Goats, beat him good, that game.

The kid's playing for the O's. He's already into oblivion.

Yup...Camden Yards has been levitated into the clouds which is apparently why now nobody can find their way to the ballpark. Those are angels in those seats...all fourteen of them.

Coconuts bouncing off each other in Orioles LF. As much as I hate Showalter, this has got to be driving him crazy. Suffering through something like Tito's last year here I think.

Orioles attendance definitely hurt by the rebirth of a Washington team which is now competitive and outdrawing the Orioles. I used to go to Camden even thought it's over an hour's drive, parking is a pain, and getting home is maybe midnight. Camden Yards is an excellent ballpark. Not so Angelos the owner.

That and the terror of the riots and burning down of the city during Orioles games trapping the fans within Camden Yards.

[Station 13]

What's with the mouth piece on the helmet?

[jung]

atta boy Rafi. Really nice stretch by Holt who simply does not have the physical build for 1st base. That is like stretching out a toy bulldog. All the want to in the world won't get much stretch out of a toy bulldog.

[Maxbialystock]

So much for a hot start against a rookie pitcher. Good thing Sale started with a good 1st.

[Station 13]

Sale with heat. The slider and change also look really good.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Holt is the kind of player every manager would love to have on his team.

[Station 13]

What on EARTH are they swinging at?

[a700hitter]

What on EARTH are they swinging at?

Every pitch that will not hit them.

[Maxbialystock]

That rookie pitcher is moving his pitches around the zone and mixing his pitches and not walking anyone. No-hitter well into the 2d inning.

He has made a few nice plays recently on balls to his right.

[Maxbialystock]

Meh. This year I like him. Last year not so much. He is definitely versatile and literally can play 7 positions decently.

[Station 13]

Every pitch that will not hit them.

 

Making the hacks on the O's looks disciplined.

[Maxbialystock]

Whoops. Wrong about the no-hitter. Still, he's a pain thru 2 innings.

[Station 13]

Lately hitting with runners on been very bad.

So you didn’t like the guy playing with/through a couple of concussions. Amazing what healing up can do for a player.

 

Remember, though, Holt has a history of less than stellar 2nd half’s.
