So Much For A Winning Season

Well, the Orioles' season has become a total disaster. Baltimore is now 7 games under .500 and sinking fast! I can't believe that just a couple of months ago, they were 13 games over .500 and in first place in the AL East. That's about when Erik Bedard, their best pitcher, hurt his knee and is just getting back off the DL. Also, Sammy Sosa and Javy Lopez have spent time injured, Sidney Ponson had his annual breakdown/legal problems, and the rest of the pitching staff tanked out too. And the hitters went south as well. After firing Lee Mazzilli (I never really liked that guy since he's a former Yankee) and replacing him with Cumberland MD's own Sam Perlozzo as manger Things started out good, including a sweep of Oakland a couple of weeks ago, but after the A's replied with a 4 game sweep of their own, I'm ready for next year!
