Pretty sad pete when they have to keep giving a guy a chance that hasn't proven one thing ever .

Pete,

I know you joke about taking a day off or your fine dietary habits with the Ice cream cakes and such, but to be honest, I don't envy you one bit. I love well played and good sports of all kind with the operative words be well played and good! This is going to be a really long summer as it recently has been in the later part of the Spring. I do hope the Sun is providing you with some hazardous duty pay premium for being forced to tolerate such an inferior product on a day to day basis! Like most fans, I would just like to see the O's being somewhat competitive and in most games through 7 innings at this point, but unfortunately with the likes of Penn, Hendrickson, Walker, Pie, Freel occupying 5 precious spots on the roster being even enjoyable to watch seems unthinkable.

Pete's reply: I appreciate the thought, but it's still baseball and I can't complain about getting paid to watch a sport I've loved as long as I can remember. It's going to be ugly at times, but I can see a little light out there. I think you'll see Wieters pretty quick and Tillman at midseason.

Penn's case would be stronger if he did not pitch like an old woman. Scottie McGregor is a bad influence on these guys, just throw strikes and get everybody home from the park at a decent hour.
