This is a special year with a special manager leading the way. Nobody...and I MEAN NOBODY gave us an honest chance at getting into the playoff this year, a .500 record was considered a huge improvement and the majority of the national media predicted us to lose 100+ games. Let's enjoy this run of Oriole's magic - every night it's someone else contributing who 2-3 months ago was never heard of.

That means Betemit will play DH against righties.<br /><br />With twenty-two games left and with the Yankees, Orioles, Rays, Athletics and Angels within two wins of each other with a good number of games against each other, I would expect a single win to determine who makes it to the playoffs and who doesn't. <br /><br />Carlos Lee wouldn't be a bad pickup. He'd be cheap and can get on base. <br />Matt Pnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-61459583462567037482012-09-09T11:00:01.515-04:002012-09-09T11:00:01.515-04:00McLouth/Ford RF, Davis LF, Betemit or Thome DH?

He does seem to catch the ball when he's near it, which is more than you could say for Reimold.kgwillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07297681911006812053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-91687183711697443522012-09-09T09:54:16.241-04:002012-09-09T09:54:16.241-04:00this makes me sick. nick's return has been suc...this makes me sick. nick's return has been such a monster lift for us, finally giving the o's a consistent lead-off threat, never mind his outfield abilities. and now this. i believe in our boys, though. we'll do what we've done all season long- fill the gap with someone who is willing to step up and show they're ready to take us back to the postseason. and as for all of those ny fans crying about last night's final out, all i can say is remember '97, a certain fly ball out to left field? karma is a mutha....sean hnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-64323092774575648822012-09-09T09:48:31.480-04:002012-09-09T09:48:31.480-04:00I don't think it's Ford/Avery.
