How ridiculous are the Orioles?

Specifically, the pitching staff. They seem to embarrass themselves every other night.
I had no action on this game, but I'm kicking myself for not taking the over.

I was going to start a thread called "Which teams have thrown in the towel?" since this is the time of year teams will do that. It appears as thought the O's have done just that.

Q, i started a similar thread in the baseball forum, i think the o's and possibly minny qualify as teams that have given it up.

just remember each member of their bullpen is making at least $380,000 or whatever the league minimum is. Those guys are getting paid to do that stuff. And how about Leo Mazzone, can't believe he hasnt been axed just as a symbol of desperation

Moral victory for the O's tonight. They only gave up 17.

I hope that little troll Angelos is suffering watching the garbage his team has become. He has ruined the once proud Orioles.

I went to an A ball game last night in Aberdeen and let me tell you the pitching was no better, 3 run shot to start the game , Cal's team got lit up.

The Orioles have had terrible farm teams for years now, which use to be their strength....case in point, they made TWO selections ahead of Toronto a few years back, both Orioles selections never came close to the big leagues , meanhwile Toronto selected Alex Rios, the Orioles had two chances to get him before Toronto even picked...Rios is a 5 tool player.

Oak-town has tossed it in too. Combine the injuries with all the stiffs (Dan Johnson, Hanahan, etc.) and they are done. My brother in law ran into Shannon Stewart over the weekend and Stewart basically said they were done and just counting the days.
