The Orioles’ 2020 rotation has completely changed, which isn’t a bad thing

But at the same time, not entirely unexpected. Going into a 60-game season with an abbreviated ‘summer camp’ that was preceded by an abrupt end to spring training and a hiatus lasting several months, the chances of injuries and/or inconsistency among pitchers was bound to go up. The Orioles were no exception here.
Not counting John Means, who started this season on the injured list, the Orioles currently have just one starting pitcher who was in the rotation on opening day. That pitcher is Alex Cobb.
