Yankees At Orioles 11 April Game Thread

Rangers heading to the 9th! Close em out boys!

[dandrews]

Real fans should root to lose every game. Because this team as constructed is going nowhere, ever. On top of that the front office refuses to acquire talent anywhere but the draft.

So, the only logical conclusion is to root for them to draft higher.

Lets go Gregg! Serve up another one!

You have fun. I'm not spending 4 hours of my night to root for them to lose.

[veritas]

Some of us still like to watch. If you want them to forfeit, then just don't watch. Pretty simple really.

I rarely do. Then, when I get lured back to a game, they suck out loud just like always.

I'm sure it's much more fun to root for them to win, only to watch them lose in spectacular fashion in extra innings on back to back nights.

Just enjoy the toboggan ride to 110 losses.

Another guy who can't take the truth. This team is buried for a decade, at least.

[Jimmy Jazz]

I can't get over that pitiful AB by Jones ...

He should be fined for that crap, trying to hit a grand slam, what the hell.

Unlike you, once I stop enjoying watching Orioles games, I won't watch.

[Mr. Buzzcut]

I didn't realize this lineup was so punchless.

[Slidemaster]

Unlike you, once I stop enjoying watching Orioles games, I won't watch.

The real question you should ask yourself is why you enjoy watching this cacophony of failure to begin with.

I said it in Nov: a smart GM would trade Guthrie,Jones,Markakis,Hardy,JJ and Reynolds. Shed payroll and try for the #1 pick and stock the system. Our core is Arrieta,Britton,Matusz(maybe),Bundy,Machado and Schoop. That's not nearly enough, you add prospects, the 4th pick in this draft, 1st pick in 2013 and by Dec of 2013 you've got a top 5 farm system and tons of payroll to sign players or trade for the quality young players that are always available in Dec. Instead we continue to tread water with a below avg system and an owner unwilling to spend big on FA.

The pressure was on the pitcher -- make him throw a strike!

He swings at a ball up in his eyes ...

[Slidemaster]

Really? The dynamic duo of Betemit and Chavez didn't tip you off? There's 4 major league hitters in the lineup, on a good day.

[Jimmy Jazz]

I didn't realize this lineup was so punchless.

Trying to think of a joke regarding Vlad punching cops but can't.

[AntiMoon]

You must have been sleeping: no leadoff guy, cleanup guy,1B,DH or LF. Other than that we're gold Jerry GOLD!

Well ... None of the quality candidates wanted the job.

[HAIL2BNG]

And now he's pulled for a defensive replacement. Pinch running poorly is about all he can do huh?

On the Yanks. He'd be one of your best players. Take your bad call and your loss. There will be more to come.

Jones, Markakis, Hardy, Johnson, Reynolds, Hammel, and Wieters should all be traded for whatever you can get. Put Matusz out of his misery and just release him. Take the number 1 pick for the next 5 years and hope you can develop more than one player per draft, because otherwise we're looking at 20 years of the same thing, year after year after year.

Now for the Emmy winning Comedy show starring Jimmy "Moonbeam" Hunter and Rick "O's are a budding dynasty" Dempsey

I will! One closer to the top pick in 2013!
