The Orioles have now played 115 games this season and, with another loss on Thursday night, they have lost 80 of those games. It is likely they will find some more ways to lose before the season is over. In a 5-4 loss to the Rays, they took a late lead in the seventh inning and then blew that lead in the same inning and went on to lose.
An unpleasant truth in these early days of the Orioles rebuilding project is that we are going to watch a number of players get opportunities while the O’s are sorting out who’s a keeper and many of those players will fail.
