If you’ve taken the last week or so off from watching Orioles baseball, no one could blame you. Baltimore, while still lacking overall talent, has recently added mental miscues to its repertoire. Monday night’s contest against New York was especially difficult to take in, but as Drew Bonifant alluded to, it was not an isolated incident.
While winning a majority of games was always out of the question, it’s still fair to expect the Orioles to play the game the right way. It appears Baltimore has been dropping the ball, mentally and physically, at an increasing rate.
