Toward the end of this story on MLB.com, comes news that the Orioles are leaning toward carrying 13 pitchers this season.
And then there are pitchers who are disappointed that they are being sent to the minors anyway. How bad do you have to be to not make a 13-man pitching staff. Especially a pitching staff that consists of 13 Orioles pitchers?
Sendy Rleal was sent to the minors on rehab assignment. That will apparently involve Orioles broadcasters as well who will try to figure out which language starts words with an "Rl" sound.
Gee, and in the AL you start nine batters, so that leave THREE bats on the bench - and that's a lot of positions for three guys on the bench to cover. I guess Perlazzo will have nothing to do BUT make pitching changes.
think of all the trips to the mound ...
think of all the 4 hour games ....
zzzzzzzzzzzzz ......
at least since it's the AL there's no pinch-hitting for the pitcher. they might have to change their approach for interleague games though.
