Knock 'Em Dead, Bruce Chen!!

[Nanner]

It's been awhile since I've done a Pre-Game Thread. I think it's time. Time for us to get back into first place!!

Bruce Chen pitching today against the Atlanta Braves. Fox is showing both that game and the Phillies/Red Sox game.............. but in New York, we're getting the Phillies/Sox game. :( Dang. And TBS isn't showing the Orioles/Braves game in New York today. DOUBLE DANG!!! :(

Well, GO ORIOLES!!!! GO BRUCE CHEN!!!!

:cheer: :jump: :cheer: :jump:

AND GO PHILLIES!!!

:D

Hmmm. :(

Well, that didn't work.

Crap. It's a June Swoon. :barf:

Orioles lose to the Braves.......... AGAIN........... score was 5-4

I'm so used to the O's leading the AL East, this sucks a little bit.

I'm actually not worried, though. They made a 4-run comeback in the late innings, and, were it not for Andruw Jones, one of the hottest hitters in the NL, it would have been tied, and the O's would have gone ahead...... I know they would have. :tongue:

The O's will be okay............ it's not like this was a rout.

Don't I rationalize well?!?!?!?! :D

Sooooooooooooooo........... can we at least win tomorrow, PLEASE!!!!!???? :Pray:

One of the hottest? Let's try the hottest. This guy is animal the past 15 games with an absurd 11 HRs during this strench. That's just unheard of.

O's have an excuse, but it's not good enough. The team is plagued by injuries. They lost one of their two stable pitchers in Bedard. Lopez is doing his best to carry that injuried staff. Like I predicted, Chen and Ponson never that reliable and failing to win games. Cabera still remains ever so inconistent. They really need Bedard back and come on O's, if you're not going to get another golden chance to make a run at this league. They need to make a move for a starter. Unlike other team, no worries about bullpen. O's could try to slug their way through the league picking up Griffey and Casey from the Reds, but I doubt they'll make the move and that it would even work.
