Something is rotten with the Baltimore Orioles roster. What that is, who is to blame for it, and how to fix it, are questions that seemingly become more urgent with every passing clunker. Thursday night’s series finale against the Dodgers offered another one of those games where every sign points towards the inescapable conclusion that this thing ain’t working. The Orioles lost, 6-3.
It should not have been this way. It didn’t have to be. The Dodgers starting pitcher, Bobby Miller, brought an ERA north of 7, and a WAR of -1.0, into the contest, having accumulated that large positive and separately large negative across nine starts to date.
