Should Orioles Fans be Concerned with Brian Matusz and his Struggles?
Posted on 27 Jun 2011 by Alex Van Rees.
Entering this season it looked as if the Baltimore Orioles starting rotation would be one of the better ones in recent memory and if all went well, the playoff dream was not in the back of the Orioles fan’s minds, but it seemed like it could be a reality in 2011. Brian Matusz was born on February 17th, 1987 in Grand Junction, Colorado. Southpaw sensation and possible cornerstone of the organi...

Posted on 15 Nov 2010 by Christopher Rowe.
The Phillies have hired Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg to manage their Triple A Lehigh Valley club, the team announced Monday morning. Speculation has swirled for the past week as former Iowa Cubs manager and former Cubs Hall of Fame player Ryne Sandberg was passed over to succeed Lou Pinella as Chicago Cubs manager. Mike Quade got that job in a recent announcement despite Sandberg managing at all...

Phillies Quietly Restocking for 2011
Posted on 13 Nov 2010 by Christopher Rowe.
It has been a relatively busy week for the Phillies. They hired Juan Samuel to replace Davey Lopes on the coaching staff. They signed or agreed to terms with a few notable Minor League free agents and searched to fill vacancies on their Minor League coaching staff – which could conclude with Ryne Sandberg and Mickey Morandini joining the organization. This is before General manager Rube...

Phillies Coaching Carousel Spins Sandberg, Bowa or Samuel
Posted on 10 Nov 2010 by Christopher Rowe.
Ryne Sandberg played just 13 games for the Phillies before they traded him to the Chicago Cubs in 1982. At the time it was not such a big deal but in time it became one of the more infamously lopsided trades in franchise history. Sandberg was part of a two-for-one deal sending both veteran Phils shortstop Larry Bowa and Sandberg – a prospect to Chicago in exchange for shortstop Ivan DeJes...

Feeling a New Emotion
Posted on 11 Aug 2010 by Ron Burr.
It has been 12 days since the Orioles hired Buck Showalter, 9 days since his introductory press conference, and 8 games with him at the helm. All of those numbers are noteworthy, but none more so than the number 1. One loss. And that one loss wasn't exactly a blowout. Let's really break it down, here… 7 straight quality starts (minimum 6 innings, maximum 3 earned runs) before las...

Midterm Selections
Posted on 15 Jul 2010 by Ron Burr.
The 2nd half starts tonight for about half of the teams (14, in case you were wondering), and Friday for the rest of them (including the Birds). So now is as good of a time as any to arbitrarily assign grades to the team. Unlike some other graders (like Jeff Zrebiec of the Baltimore Sun and his grades), I am going to go by area other than individual player, then expand in the comments below...

Just in the Nick of Time
Posted on 17 Jun 2010 by Ron Burr.
All of us are frustrated. Fans are sick of the losing. Reporters (and bloggers) are tired of trying to find things to talk about in regards to the team. It becomes a cacophony of apathy (which would be an EXCELLENT band name if anyone is looking for such a thing) all around. And then someone speaks up and everyone takes notice. Nick Markakis is not known as verbose. In fact, he is as mu...

Cold Hard Truth on a Hot Summer’s Day
Posted on 4 Jun 2010 by Ron Burr.
In a move that surprised no one in any way except for how long it took, the Orioles have fired Dave Trembley, replacing him with Juan Samuel on an interim basis. While the writing has been on the wall for quite a while, Trembley's fate was pretty much sealed when it was reported that GM Andy MacPhail met the team at the Warehouse when they got back in from New York yesterday (that is not his ...
