THAT'S MY SECOND ROUND PICK RIGHT THERE!

It was another miserable afternoon in the Grapefruit League for Kevin Millwood yesterday.  The Oriole righthander gave up five earned runs on nine hits in two and two-thirds innings, including a home run to Michael Cuddyer in an 8-3 thrashing by the Twins.  His Spring Training ERA is now a healthy 29.70.  He's working things out, that's it!  Like how to duck line drives at his head.

Elsewhere, the relievers had pretty decent days, aside from Luke Gregerson, who gave up a run in only two-thirds of an inning.  Nick MassetAlex White and Aaron Crow all had scoreless frames.  Maybe Crow will go north with the Royals as a long man/swing starter.  I haven't heard anything, and given his lack of pro experience, I would doubt it.  He'll probably start in AA with an eye toward getting him with the big club before August.  It's not like the Royals are going anywhere.

Hey, somebody had a multiple-hit day!  Carlos Quentin doubled and singled in a 5-5 tie with Cleveland.  Man, when that's the best offensive news in three days, things are not looking well.
