Saturday Bird Droppings: The final weekend of the first half

Good morning, Birdland!

Don’t look now, but July is quickly becoming another awful month for the Orioles. They have won just once in six attempts, and a pitching matchup of Lucas Giolito and Thomas Eshelman later today doesn’t seem like a winning recipe. Stacey recapped last night’s 12-1 thumping at the hands of the White Sox, a game in which the only Orioles pitcher that didn’t give up a run was Pat Valaika, basically this team’s version of Shohei Ohtani.

The thing about last night’s poor performance was that, for a couple players, it was simply a continuation of struggles they have been happening all season long, and something has got to give.
