Ubaldo Jimenez has had bad seasons before. By now, the veteran pitcher’s up-and-down tendencies are well known around the league. But his performance for the 2017 Orioles has been, quite possibly, his worst to date. If he doesn’t turn it around in the near future, the right-hander’s time in Baltimore could soon be over.
The slowest of starts
Since Jimenez has only thrown 26 innings to this point, he doesn’t qualify for any of the league “leaderboards”. If he did, his 6.58 ERA would be one of the five worst marks in all of baseball.
