I don't blame the manager. How much are these pitchers getting to throw strikes? None of them look any good. I think if their salary depended on how many batters they got out, it would be more like real life. Produce, or you don't get paid!

Requisite three runs is aptly put. That;s what I notice alot ;3 for the Orioles. Also, I notice Todd Williams is not very good and neither is the bullpe.n

In all honesty, I don't think I've seen a more consistent bullpen than the Orioles Orioles 2007 pen. It's quite remarkable. Probably the most consistent of any Oriole bullpen in the history of the franchise, going all the way back to 1995 (when the Great Peter Angelos founded the team). Each member of the 'pen knows their job and does it beautifully when called upon. To come in with a lead and immediately cough it up is an honor with this fine group of millionaires put together by the brilliant GM and Asst. GM. The Unknown-City Orioles are the joke of MLB. But winning the scoreboard fight with the MSA is what's REALLY important! Please don't forget that.

I've never seen such a braindead organization in my life. It's as thogh if the FO makes a roster move their heads will explode.When is the last time they made a performance based roster move? They only seem to react to injuries. And why in the world won't they just fire the clueless Perlozzo?

Baez is quickly emerging as the worst FA signing in the teams history.Even Segui got a hit once in a while.

When is ownership going to give Rick Dempsey a chance to manaage the club? He has proven he is a winner every where he has gone. The team is struggling and needs new blood that has old baseball ideals like Demps has.

It's Time To Bring Up The Youth. Both The Pitchers And The Position Players. If We Are Going to Lose Let's Do It With Exicitment.

How about we recall some old faces to fill in for our current team? Eddie you out there? Calling on Brooks Robinson... I'll even take a Mike Devereaux or Chris Hoilesat this point! I am that desperate.

Hey Todd Williams, how about you don't forget about it - because we can't. We shell out $40 dollars a seat, plus parking/food/drinks/gas... it'd be nice to see a win every now and then.

I am so tired of this. When Williams came in I told my brother sitting next to me that the game was about to be blown. A few pitches later sure enough. I want anyone who has the time to go to ESPN.com and look at the Orioles salary distribution. If you look closely Guthrie and Markakis are two of the lowest paid players and have been the best on the O's. Benson and Wright are two and three in terms of how much they make. Baez, Gibbons, and Patterson all make around 5 mil. Between these five players there is about 30 mil in salary that has contributed absolutely nothing to this team. Benson is hard to get on but everyone else is just overpaid mediocre players. I said before the season started that Wright wouldnt even last half the season. How does the front office not know this stuff if a lowly 21 year old fan from New Mexico does? Im simply disgusted.

I just want everyone to know the all these problems started and will end with Peter Angelos. When Camden first opened they were selling more tickets than any other team, even the Yankees. So where did all that money go? Into Angelos' pocket and not into spending money on the team and on good players that will help us win. Since he was greedy and didnt want to spend the big money on the big players the O's started losing. Now attendance is down and O's support is fading fast. Angelos doesnt care about the team or the fans. I know this because if he did he would be willing to overpay for top players and would be willing to negotiate with all agents. The front office hasnt helped either. They always pay a mediocre player more money and hope that they will become more than just mediocre. Look at the Wright signing. He has a history of injury over the past three years and has not pitched well in that span. So what made the O's think anything would change this? I said the day they made that signing that Wright wouldnt last half the season, and he exceeded my expectation, He didnt even last a third. Cal im begging you please buy this team. I will lick the bottom of Cal's shoes if thats what it takes to get him to buy it off Angelos. As long as Angelos is there the O's will be a laughing stock as the last ten years have proven.
