From Guthrie, Eaton, Koji, Hendrickson and Simon to Guthire, Hernandez, Bergesen, Tillman and Matusz in 4 months. Other than Tillman the other 4 rookie pitchers are home-grown. I strongly believe that the “Kiddie Korps”, barring injury, will be very effective for several years. Plus, home-grown Jake Arrieta is still to come and many scouts see him as the best of the lot. With home-grown Matt Wieters behind the plate and home-grown Nolan Reimold patrolling left field, it’s been a bumper crop for the O’s … Read More »

For the first time this year I rushed home from work had dinner and settled in to watch phenom Brian Matusz pitch. Overall it was a solid not great effort. He seems to have several speeds of change up and had Adam Jones not broke in on a deep fly to center, Matusz would have had 5 shutout innings.
The irony of ironies. Should Maryland defeat Chaminade in the first round and Cincy defeat Vanderbilt, on Tuesday night Nov 24 at 7PM the Terrapins will take on Lance Stephenson and the Bearcats. Perhaps Sean Mosley and Landon will alternate guarding Born Ready. Enough said!!!!

Very interesting interview of Gary on sporting news.com.
Just another loss. The Birds are now 44-61. George Sherrill could have gotten us into the 10th inning but if nobody else cares, then neither do I. WRONG!!!!!!! I was sick to my stomach when Baez gave up that gopher ball with 2 out.
