PrintOakland Athletics at Baltimore Orioles, Sep 6, 2008 4:05 PM PDT
Well, we'll see whether this happens or not. The first game of today's doubleheader was rained out, and while it cleared up for a bit in Baltimore, apparently (according to Baltimore Sun beat writer Peter Schmuck):
clouds are moving back over the stadium, so who knows?
Schmuck also says that the Orioles, in the event it starts raining again, may likely wait until as late as 9 p.m. ET to try and get the game in. Still no word on when/if the earlier scheduled game will be made up.
So sit back, wait to see if the boys in blue call "play ball," and peruse 67MARQUEZ' rain delay reading, Jennifer's Swoon-y KC photo diary, or mikeA's ode to Out Man.
While we're waiting ... what's for dinner? Too damn hot to fire up the stove, so I'm subsisting on shiitake-and-eggplant pate on homemade sourdough. I might fire up the crockpot out on the fire escape later for some pork tenderloin.
Huh. The SBN lineup widget appears to be busted. Bummer.

oh, and by the way, that's me, not louismg

Nope, I'm looking at the name right now
It’s definitely louismg.

I just ate an early dinner
fresh fettucine with a sauce made of tons of basil and garlice, onions, walnuts, sliced kalamata olives, olive oil and a pat of butter, red wine and mushrooms.
And you want me to arrive when?

Good news is; If it does start at 9 EST, then the A's have the advantage
since that is 6 on the West Coast, they won’t be as tired as the O’s. Likewise if they decide to play the game tomarrow after all (sorry Ravens).

Oh, you said non-Applebee’s.
No, I haven’t heard.

2009 Opening Day Lineup
Looking at today’s lineup it looks potentially like the 2009 Opening Day starting lineup, barring transactions and assuming Ellis is not resigned and Chavez isn’t able to start at Third Base. Of course, there will be some transactions. The lineup has almost no power. Maybe 30 home runs from Cust. Perhaps 15 to 20 homers from Cunningham. And the rest look like they’ll hit 5 to 10 homers over the course of the season. As Ellsbury learned, without the home run threat, pitchers grow less afraid to throw strikes and walks become harder to come by…except if you’re playing the Orioles.
I don't think this will be the lineup
I expect to see Carlos Gonzalez, Chavez somewhere, and at least one off-season addition.

If Davis is in the opening day line up
we’re in some real trouble. If he’s simply on the 25-man roster sitting on the bench, well, that actually doesn’t tell us much.

It would make him to easy to spot by runners charging home.

No adjustment in the world is going to make Hannahan better. He’s just not that talented. Even other team’s announcers notice how slow his bat is.

He must have compromising pictures of Geren

But I dont think he should be playing everyday.

The sad fact is, there was no better options in the minors, and he didn't look as

Smith is afraid again.
He’s some decent stuff. Why won’t he trust it?
"You may glory in a team triumphant, but you fall in love with a team in defeat."--The Boys of Summer
Watch Jamie Moyer pitch. See how often he does what you want Smith to do.
Smith just needs to be better at emulating Moyer because he absolutely cannot challenge guys with fastballs over the inner part of the plate. If he does that, you may as well call him Dan Meyer II.
by thejd44 on Sep 6, 2008 5:09 PM PDT up reply actions
Smith is no Moyer.
Moyer can’t break 83 on the gun. Smith is a much better overall pitcher. He’s actually quite decent. I imagine the horrible lack of run support is playing on his mind, but he’s got to let that go.
"You may glory in a team triumphant, but you fall in love with a team in defeat."--The Boys of Summer
Smith might throw 5 mph harder
But there’s nothing special about the fastball. Moyer threw that hard a few years ago when he developed his nibbling style. There’s nothing wrong with Smith’s approach, he just needs to get better control.
by thejd44 on Sep 6, 2008 5:16 PM PDT up reply actions
I was being generous to Moyer.
"You may glory in a team triumphant, but you fall in love with a team in defeat."--The Boys of Summer
I take issue with the notion that
Smith is a much better pitcher overall than Moyer. I would say the reverse is true – Moyer has had an outstanding career and at 45 is actually as or more effective than Smith is.
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
This is true.
And he shouldn’t be….which is a testament to his ability to out think hitters. Smith could learn a lot from a guy like him.
"You may glory in a team triumphant, but you fall in love with a team in defeat."--The Boys of Summer
Let me clarify - Smith isn't even close to being better than Moyer.
If he could get some tips from Moyer he’d actually become a significantly better pitcher.
yep.
He just won’t do it. Sure, it’s gonna hurt him sometimes, but refused to do it all is going to end up hurting a lot more.

Love, such a confusing emotion.
I'm here to talk about the past.
It could just be a 2-3 week hot streak
But it also coincides with getting some regular playing time. At the very least, I expect the A’s to keep him around and let him compete for a job in spring training. I think he’s earned that much.

he’s a useful role player. I would like to see him given a chance to earn a spot too.
