No wonder we can't win, we don't have anywhere to discuss it!

At least Burnett earned his paycheck this series.

I'm just happy that the bats are alive. Hasn't been that way, this early, in a couple seasons.

Nick Swisher needs to start! I'm starting my rally call now.

Swisher is doing it so far, lets hope it continues. Matsui better get going soon, or he'll be riding the bench.

If Burnett stays healthy, you guys are going to be very good.

Keep him in the bullpen for now. I don't know if his endurance is high enough.

Not yet. I think he's too amped up, too excited. This guy throws a 95 mph sinker and I think it's just asking for trouble early in the season.

I've always felt that he was enormously lucky because of his low K rate, but he's not supposed to be this bad.

In May, his numbers will begin to move toward normalcy. A mid-to-low 4 ERA is all that should be expected out of him.

Wang ineffective+inevitable Burnett injury=4th place.

Well, the Orioles look better (at least to us) than they have in quite a few years, so far.

We're going to be bad until June. We have a rotation of Guthrie, Uehara, Eaton, Hendrickson, and probably Bergesen. We need to replace at least 2/5ths of that to be legit.

Not exactly household names there, I grant you.
