Monday night’s loss to the Tigers continued to doom the Orioles playoff chances. It’s the type of game that shifts the focus from how the team can improve now to what the team must change moving forward. The Orioles likely needed to sweep the Tigers to have any chance at a wild card spot this season, but they must improve to make the playoffs next year.
I wondered last week whether the Orioles offense could face more turnover than the pitching staff. There will be turnover in the line up this offseason, but could a shift in philosophy come with it?
