Around SBN: Is Lou Piniella Losing It? Bar-right-arrows


Wieters Up

Starting friday. Andy McPhail announced it today. Now I will go on by rambling about how he is the next coming of God and will take us all captive as his slaves in the future. Every major league award will be named after parts of his body. Such as the Matt Wieters arm award and the Matt Wieters leg award. Given to the best pitcher and baserunner respectively. Thank you all. Good Night and Good Luck.

Medlen will probably get one more start before Hanson is called...

Medlen’s rough start is probably 75% nerves (check out his BB numbers), and the Braves don’t really want to send him back down with that big of a shot to his confidence.

Guy #1: Damn, these oysters are going to make us horny as hell...
Girl #2: Oh yeah, I forgot oysters are hermaphrodites.

He was fine against SF if he would have just got Lincecum out in the 2nd instead of walking him with 2 outs.

exciting times for O's fans

David Hernandez is more than likely going to start on Thursday as well.

which is stupid

I would push him to Friday so they could debut together. Comfort level and all.

it's not stupid...

Koji is injured and his turn is up on Thursday. They need someone to start Thursday and there are no off days. Moving Friday’s starter up a day and on short rest would be “stupid”. Hernandez will be on normal rest on Thursday.

Bergesen is starting Friday, he came from AAA Norfolk earlier in the season so Wieters has familiarity there if that has any importance.

A noob or n00b is someone that lacks intellegance or common sense, most people think that noob is a word used only in the online gaming world, but in reality it is becoming an ever popular word with teenage society.

a noob could be simply a level 100 running round shouting ‘’WTF DO I GO!?’’ or someone calling someone else a noob and then getting hit with a brick, anyone can call anyone a noob, but normally they are noobs themselves

So what does Tillman have to do to be called up?

This is the guy I can’t wait to see, not that Wieters is chopped liver… I guess I’m just tired of reading every post about Wieters..

Tillman

Be Healthy? Seriously though, he’s one most would assume needs a bit more seasoning due to his control issues the years before. Yes he has improved which is great, but it doesn’t hurt to give him more time to were it becomes more 2nd nature for him.

Speaking of Baltimore prospects

Brandon Erbe must be injured. Does anyone know what happened to him? What type of injury?

Shoulder Fatigue

The brass is downplaying it as not serious, but shoulder problems are always scary.

Shirts on that site are amazing

My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

I was hoping for better.

The smokestack one is pretty good. I might also wear the batting practice one. Jim Palmer jokes don’t really do it for me.

That is the greatest site ever.

This is great.

Fresh comedy. But he is a great player.
