Orioles Notebook: starting pitching, dominating offense, and monthly records
In this edition of the Orioles Notebook I look at the starting pitching, the Orioles offense, and how this years monthly records stack up over past years.
All you have to do is be above average
The Orioles have been steamrolling the major leagues in June. A 19-8 mark so far is absolutely illustrious as they have opened up a 5.5 game lead in the AL East. Yet, the starting pitching is still suffering to get the job done.
The rotation in June, not including the stats from Wednesday’s game, has posted a 5.49 ERA good for 24th in the major leagues. Sandwiched right in between the Phillies and the Angels. Not very good.
