the wing-man

yankees cry. but they no nothing of injuries. Os too have minus three starters now. minus four if you want to count John Maine. dagger!

adam loewen is not the yOung savior. he is the second canadian; he is the unheralded hero; he is like the guy in 'the last king of scotland' who frees the creepy doctor to save uganda and is shot dead.

he is the second vector.

the unseen force of change.

the quiet mollusk waiting in the sand.

and in 2008 when Orioles bring back same 2007 squad minus a certain red-haired DH and plus a real DH then lOewen will reclaim his position as the Canadian Coronator or as some of you may know him: Lefty No. 2 from the Great White North. The cold cut clipper.

The Wing-Man.

Wayward O feels like the 2007 team is gelling; toughening up; relearning what it means to inherit the mantle of Brooks Robinson, Earl Weaver and Eddie Murray. Except they can't get a hit ... last night's win over Cleveland was a rare gem to be savored when the darkness sets in.

Meantime ... Wayward O feels like Brian Burres might have a little bit of fight in him. Four inning's worth apprOximatley.

wing man. please rest your fracture
and when you make your return
orioles will hit the ball to the outfield
with a man on third
and a Win shall be yours.
