Chris Davis Is A Symbol Of The Orioles’ Futility

Chris Davis has been on a steep decline the past few years, and his performance has reflected the Orioles’ 2018 season.

These days, Chris Davis’s performance on the field seems to encapsulate the Orioles’ 2018 season.

From the start of the year, the Baltimore Orioles have displayed constant ineptitude on the diamond. They struggle to put runs on the board and cannot get on base. Through July 12th, the Orioles are dead last in baseball with a godawful .290 OBP and 29th in batting average (.227). For a team that has the likes of Manny Machado, Chris Davis, Pedro Alvarez, Mark Trumbo, and Adam Jones, one would think that the team would at least have some power.
