Reading Time: 2 minutes

The Orioles got swept by the D.C. team in a three-game set at HOME, and scored just two runs in the entire 27 innings of the series. You keep thinking they’ve hit rock bottom, and they keep plummeting through the floor.

Links.

Orioles 2018 Rotation has Been Nearly as Awful as 2017’s

The O’s set a franchise record for starting-pitching futility in 2017. They got rid of Ubaldo, and Miley, and cut the Chris Tillman experiment short.

His commitment to getting better – when he was already damn incredible – is something I sure wish some Orioles shared. But again, this isn’t to bash the Birds. I just want to read about good baseball, and good baseball players. If you agree, check out this article.

 

Four against the Yankees on deck. Yippee.
