First, let me clarify something. It’s a very long season. In fact, the Rays have 155 more games to play, which is pretty nuts to think about.
Therefore, don’t let this article make you think that what has transpired already this season will be permanent.
Let’s cut to the chase.
Starting Pitching. The heck is going on?
The starting pitching has been bad. Real bad.
They have a combined ERA of 5.20, 13th worst in the American League. They have just one quality start. And finally, they have zero wins. Yes, no one on in the rotation has a win so far.
