Orioles Win!

[SmootSmack]

I think that Sam Perlozzo should have gotten the managerial job, and now it looks like he'll get the Expos job should they move to the DC area. Regardless, it was wrong not to let Mazzilli choose his own coaching staff. I've never liked Ponson. He's only been focused and good in his contract year last year. And the Orioles, while calling him their ace, put him up against the opponent's number 3 or 4 pitcher, to make him look better. I just hope the guys we got in return for him, namely Kurt Ainsworth, can get better. I'm not too concerned with the young pitching staff taking their lumps so long as they can turn the experience into wins next year. It looks though like Matt Riley is done, rumor is he could be headed to the Dodgers. What a bust he turned out to be. Him and Ben McDonald.

As for the whole DC-Baltimore thing. All I know is I'll be pretty upset if the team ends up in Loudoun County. That would be further away from Baltimore for me, which as it is is 45 minutes away. I'd like to see DC get the team and revitalize the Southwest Waterfront area. I think though that realistically Virginia has the better plan. And it's relatively far enough to appease Angelos.

I'll stop now because I could go on forever about baseball and I don't want to bore those of you who aren't fans.
