perplexing pitching



Tomorrow's hole in our starting rotation keeps getting bigger. On Friday, it was announced that the O's optioned starting pitcher Brian Burres to Triple-A Norfolk. Then on Saturday, Hayden Penn got hit in the leg by a scrap of broken bat.

So who does that leave to start for us tomorrow?

Well it appears the Orioles are bringing up Chris Waters from Triple-A Norfolk, but they haven't said if he would start Tuesday or not. And you can't forget about Brad Bergesen, who is 13-3 with a 2.68 ERA for Double-A Bowie.

Either one would be very scary considering we're going against the best team in baseball who, oh yeah, now have Mark Teixeira. I guess we'll see what Trembley decides to do.
