Catching up 5/10 Cheap Baltimore Orioles VS Detroit Tigers Tickets, A few things to catch up on? Trembley's talking about using a 4 man rotation for a while with a lighter schedule coming up. The 4 man rotation worked for a long time in baseball, so if Trembley wants to do it for a few weeks, it won't destroy the fabric of baseball. If the 5th starter with no place to go in this scenario is Steve Trachsel, all the better. With Guthrie doing ok, Cabrera throwing a complete game and toying with our emotions yet again by looking like he's getting it, Olson doing.

Cintron called back up to big leagues with Orioles MLB, The Baltimore Orioles purchased the contract of infielder Alex Cintron from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday and optioned right-hander Bob McCroy to their top farm club.

It?s Mother's Day in Baltimore Baltimore Orioles VS Detroit Tigers, Hard to believe but it's been almost a year since the Mother's Day Massacre ? the game that cost Sam Perlozzo his job. Now that we've had some time to reflect, though, it was also the game that indirectly kickstarted our much-needed rebuilding process, ushering in the Andy MacPhail era and giving birth to the Lost Season. Had the Orioles not blown that five-run, ninth inning lead then who knows where we'd be? Maybe Sam keeps his job, maybe 30-3 never happens, maybe MacPhail never mounts.

Ouvrir LaPorta Over the course of the baseball season, there are several very important dates that potentially can make a huge difference for your fantasy baseball team. We are currently heading into the one weekend of the year that probably more than any other will shape and determine our fate and destiny over the balance of 2008. No it's not a trading deadline, the callup of the newest superstar in waiting, or a short week that requires massive pre-planning to max out those at-bats. It would be Mother?s.

Gameday Thread: O's (19-18) @ Royals (15-21) Today's Starting PitchersGSIPERAWHIPBAABBKW-L Brian Burres - LH 6 (7) 36.2 3.19 1.34 .254 14 20 3-3 Brian Bannister - RH 7 42.1 4.46 1.25.9 10 24 3-4 Game time is 2:10 on MASN2. Burres has probably been pitching above his head, but I'll take it. Bannister started the year red-hot, but has cooled some. Still, he's a good young pitcher that any team would love to have. Perhaps a team such as the New York Mets. We look to continue our ridiculous winning streak against. Baltimore.

Like Martin Did, Maybe Time For Leyland To Pull A Rabbit Out Of His Hat Eddie Brinkman was a fine fielding shortstop, one of the best of his time. He once played nearly half a season ? 72 games ? without committing an error. His glove was about as dependable as you'll ever find. The only problem with Brinkman was that he couldn't hit a lick. He might as well have been swinging a limp noodle at the plate, rather than a piece of lumber. Edwin Albert Brinkman had nearly 6,000 official at-bats in the big leagues, and finagled them to the tune of a lifetime .224 averag. MD.
