PrintOur usual left handed lineup to face Garrett Olson. I'm not thrilled with Barajas cleaning up but then no one is hitting so put one and put him there. Barajas is batting .159 this month with a .156 on base. Yeah that's right his on base is lower than his batting average.
Of course, if you want to talk about guys not hitting this month Eck is hitting .174, Rolen .192, Mac .211 (only 19 at bats. But some of the others are doing well this month.
Olson is 0 and 2 with a 10.20 ERA in 3 starts this month. We do have a way of making bad pitchers look good, but am hopeful this time we'll make a bad pitcher look bad.
The big news, for us, is the return of Shawn Marcum. Boy do we need him back and we need him to do well. He was great before his injury, lets hope nothing has changed. He is to be limited to 65-70 pitches tonight. Hope he can get thru five innings.
Go Jays.

Ya, I said the same thing
Nothing doing for Scrap, though
With this lineup
I never expect them to score, even when they have a chance
Should have just gotten in front of it
tried to be too cute with the backhand short hop
yeah seemed to start towards it then stop then it was past him.....oh well
Markakis walks….better than giving up a home run
so do you think the O's have a better future than the Jays?
seems like they might be putting together a batting order…..
Jays of the Day Lind (.496 WPA), Mac (.304), Cy (.100)
Honorable mention Mench (.099) and Stairs (.094)
