Baltimore finished last season with a team ERA of 4.22 and WHIP of 1.36, which ranked 19th out of 30 teams in MLB. The Yankees finished 15th in this same category last season. This offseason, the Orioles traded Yovani Gallardo, who had his worst season last year, to Seattle. The Orioles also let Vance Worley walk in free agency, though there is a chance they re-sign him.
Without Gallardo or Worley, the Orioles starting rotation is projected to feature Kevin Gausman, Chris Tillman, Wade Miley, Ubaldo Jimenez and Dylan Bundy.
