do you realize we have had cesar izturis as our SS for the past 2 years.
hardy is leagues ahead of him and still is better than Andino.
you should get over your past hatred of Hardy.

So I guess in response to Roch's post this morning, what do you think the roster should look like when we activate guys off the DL?
How should our batting lineup look?

I think this:

Tatum should be our backup catcher.
Rapada should be sent down.
Tillman should be traded / sent down.
Bergesen should be sent down.
Izzy should be released / traded.

Matusz will be activated.
Hardy will be activated.
Simon should start if activated.
Fox should be backup 1B/3B instead of C, thus making Andino backup 2B/SS.


This is what I would do:
Activate Hardy tomorrow and send down Rapada.
Call up Tatum as soon as he is available off the DL and cut Izturis. Fox is then your backup 1B, 3B and emergency RF/LF/C. Andino is your backup 2B/SS and emergency 3B/LF/CF/RF.
Activate Matusz when he is ready and send down Tillman. Let him fix his mechanics and pay no attention to his statistics. I wouldn't call him back up until he can repeat his delivery with better mechanics and control a 93+MPH fastball no matter how long it takes.
Activate Simon when he is ready and send down Rupe. Simon is the new long reliever.

While the Orioles currently have the 12th worst bullpen in the AL it's saddening to see there are 2 relievers pitching great that the Orioles decided weren't good enough for this team.

Pedro Beato is currently on the DL with the Mets. 11g 17ip 9h 0er 3bb 10k 0.71whip is what he gave them before his trip to the DL ... good thing they deemed him unworthy of a 40 man roster spot while they protected some guys that have no future with the team.
Matt Albers is currently pitching great for the Red Sox. 9g 12.2ip 9h 2er 5bb 12k 1.11whip ... good thing we got rid of him and gave a bullpen spot to Rupe.

This franchise really has no eye for talent at all.

i understand the beato part but albers had to go in my opinion. some guys just need fresh starts and he was one of them.
it just maddens me that they cant find their own guys who could use fresh starts.

Hardy is going to make that team so much better. Always loved him.
