Fans of the Baltimore Orioles are well aware of how the pitching staff performed in 2018. A combined 5.18 earned run average, 1.50 WHIP, and .276 average against all ranked dead last in Major League Baseball. The starting rotation alone accounted for a league-worst 5.48 ERA, giving up 159 home runs and a .284 batting average in the process, both also ranking last in baseball. The 2019 season likely won’t be much better, ending a 10-year span of less than impressive pitching performances. In fact, it has been the worst decade of pitching since the organization moved to Baltimore in 1954.
