The Baltimore Orioles are dead in the water; they have been for quite some time now, and this isn’t news to anyone following Major League Baseball in 2018. We can see from the outside that the organization is having trouble putting talent on the field.
What we don’t see is the mentality in the locker room on a daily basis. In Dan Connolly’s article, which you can read here (subscription only, unfortunately), Orioles’ catcher Caleb Joseph states that clubhouse mentality taken a severe turn for the worse.
It’s hard to fathom that isn’t the case, as the Orioles continue to push their worst season in franchise history further into the abyss.
