Around SBN: Are The Orioles Bad Or Unlucky With Their Young Pitching?

Open Thread IV - Bahston @ Oaklandish

Byrnesscorpion_medium
Still a 2-1 Red Sahx lead at the stretch, and I am only sustained at this point by my overwhelming sense of loathing for the gabbing garbagefest that is Eric Byrnes on the MLB Network, which I now have on PermaMute because of his impenetrably irrelevant infantile idiocies.  Sheets pitched OK -- 2 ER, 7 H in 6.2 IP -- even though his velocity resembled Jamie Moyer on Quaaludes and Stoli.  The A's only hit is Rajai's HR, which says it all thusfar... my roommate and our pal Nick have gotten more hits off the bong in the last 2 hours than our whole team has with the bats.

But a yak steak was delicious. Fork tender, good flavor, not too gamey.

It doesn’t make a lot of sense that the A’s are his 5th major league team, and all of his transactions were released/signed as FA or claimed off waivers.
