Raves:
Weaver pitched 8 great innings and deserved to win.
The Halos played some solid defense today, two good plays by Kendrick.
That is all!
Rants:
Abreu is a minor leaguer at the plate right now (4 for 39). I'm sorry we're paying this approaching over the hill player $9.5 million next season.
Kendrick, while making two nice plays, ruined the 6th inning chance with one of the gazillion GIDPs the Halos have had this year.
Hunter was STUPID swinging at the first pitch from new pitcher Uehara! Hunter for a leader sure has done some real stupid things this season!
Matsui looks lost at the plate, no clue against Guthrie in the 8th.
Rivera continues to mystify me why he appears to figure in future plans. There's nothing to be impressed with.
As for the entire roster of position players, I'm putting on notice right now that you have EMBARRASSED Halos fans around the world losing 6 straight to a very mediocre O's team! When you look at yourselves in the mirror, I hope you're as repulsed as Halos fans around the world are!!!!!
Hey Halos players, you just scored ONE freaking run in 3 games against one of the WORST pitching staffs in MLB!!! Congratulations for taking "stinking it up" to new highs!!!!!
Mike, you do understand that Gonzalez HAS to stay in to face one batter after coming in. Where was Napoli to face the lefty?????
Hatcher needs to go. Either he can't communicate with them anymore, or they are tuning him out. A fresh pair of eyes and a fresh approach is needed!
I'm embarrassed to be a Halos fan right now. Is this the first time in MLB history that a team was season swept by the worst team in MLB record wise????
