Unlucky Cabrera

Daniel Cabrera goes for a complete game while giving up 2 runs and somehow the O's lose? That is such an unlucky break for Cabrera. It sucks to know that you did your job, but your team still got a loss. Of course every player should strive for perfection, but Cabrera should be extremely satisfied with what he did on Tuesday. The O's bats went sour, which is something that happens over the course of a season. However, this just seems like an awful game to do so. The O's have lost 3 in a row against AL East teams before tonight's games, and 2 of those games should have been wins for Baltimore. First was the breakdown in Boston, and then the debacle with Erik Bedard and the check swings before Danyz Baez underhanded one to Troy Glaus. A 2-1 loss is like another kick to the nuts. The O's aren't playing badly, they just aren't winning.

Luckily for the O's it is still early in the season, and everybody but Boston, Detroit, and Cleveland seems to be playing mediocre. However, the Yankees probably won't stay down, and if the O's struggle with a hurting Blue Jays team than they really are setting themselves up for another season on the wrong side of .500.
