The Orioles still haven't decided whether Rob Bell or Garrett Olson will take Steve Trachsel's turn tomorrow. Team officials wanted to see what happened last night before announcing their choice. Olson remains a possibility, but if last night's game was a factor, that would seem to indicate Bell is the front-runner, as long as he wasn't needed in long relief. Or maybe I'm not reading clearly between the lines. For those of you asking about two injured pitchers, Adam Loewen is done for the year after having a screw inserted in his left elbow, but he's expected to be ready for spring training.

I wanted to pass along reliever Jim Hoey's thoughts on a minor league manager and pitching coach: "The manager at Delmarva, Gary Kendall, is amazing at how he's a motivational speaker and a coach. ... And you get to Double-A and Scott McGregor is an awesome pitching coach. More of a laid-back type who lets you do your thing." Mo Hill, a coach at Double-A, said the affiliates are giving the same instruction at each level that's found at the major league level. "It all starts in spring training, the fundamental part of it, making sure we're all on the same page with the major leagues, just in case there's a player to be moved up."
