Let's not get bogged down in the gory details. Orioles starter Ubaldo Jimenez has been a mess and there's no way to sugarcoat that.
The question, of course, is what manager Buck Showalter and the organization should do about it.
Of course, the message boards are abuzz with calls for the club to release him and eat the rest of his large contract, which still would require the Orioles to pay him about $22.7 million. That's a lot of money to pay someone to go home, but it's not really the money that's the issue.
