hOle in dike

Posted in wOe is me on May 29th, 2010 by The Wayward O

What are we watching exactly? This is such mess. It felt like things were stabilizing after bad start but — after losing rubber match at home to Oakland in particularly poor style — Team lost chance to eat into losses deficit and has begun what appears to be bad spiral.

First inning last night v. Toronto was just hideous. Didn’t look like Team was ready to play Sport that Team plays.

Team bringing up Chris Tillman as Cla Meredith sent to AAA. Meredith had some unkind words for Team – first such material potshots amid widespread reports that Team hasn’t quit.

Wayward O pretty much sees this as hole in dike. Not sure what’s coming but … obviously … next couple days appear to be Brink of Lost Season Redox.

At least we don’t have Nyjer Morgan…

Heheh … blog has been savoring that one.

As final note, this busy Saturday, Wayward O noted a healthy, happy looking Robbie Alomar in Toronto TV booth last night. Robbie says he’s not cracked up to be manager (ya think?) but may see self as Roving Instructor. That’s got nice Ring to it. Also Robbie trying to get line of bat equipment off ground with Canada company called KR3. Anyway a few years back there were nasty rumours flying around about erstwhile greatest player in game and nice to see Robbie out there doing this thing.

OK Wayward O has heard MANY FAN COMPLAINTS about Robert Q. Dibble’s “analyses” and last night could kind of see why. Dibbs wants to have designated hitter in in NL, but just for Interleague Play.

Does he not see absurdity of position?

Blog is very nice happy time to see Mr. David Hernandez get win over cocky Nats pitcher who is unhittable except he gave up like 8 hits in first three innings last night.

Meanwhile winning pitcher DH left 7 men on in three ABs. That’s gotta be close to a … that’s gotta be some kind of … that’s definitely something.

How’s that slider Scott Olsen? Blog will tell you once baseball finally comes down.

Wayward O was amazed other night, after fan in Texas made nice catch in stands and Joe A. started talking about Rex Barney, to learn Mr. Barney’s Baseball Reference page had no sponsor.

How is that possible??? Blog is now sponsor!! But page might take day or two to update, sez baseball bible Web site’s auto email. Blog remembers many summer days as kid listening to Rex Barnschtein giving that fan a contract. RIP.

last wOrd …… maybe
