All that’s needed to see that things are not going well for the Orioles so far this year is to look at the standings. With more than a third of the season now in the books, the team is on pace for 56 wins. For those of us who are watching this team regularly, it’s no surprise that their record is bad. They play badly in a variety of ways almost on a daily basis.
In today’s episode of the podcast, I’m focused on the way that the offense has been struggling. The Orioles were always going to be worse than we’d hoped as long as the pitching staff performed the way that it’s done, yet it’s the offense that bothers me because these guys should be better than this, and they’re going to need to be better than this for the team to return to success as soon as next season.
