Stroman hasn't been bad today, lots of ground balls finding holes.

Missing his spots for crucial pitches

This is going badly. Other than Thole sucking in the 1st inning, nobody is really to blame for how it is going.

Actually Stroman has been terrible today. These guys are tagging everything he is throwing.

everybody gets all up in arms about Dickey and with some valid reasoning, but Stroman hasn't been any better whatsoever.

So frustrating. 15 hits and 15 runs yesterday.

Then out comes two of our hottest hitters in Martin and Barney, plus Smoak and his 5 RBI's. Now 2 pathetic friggen hits thru 5 godamn innings.

I get that Bautista, Pillar and Travis are the starters and need to get back in there, plus Martin is "banged up" but F me is this frustrating.

It's also starting to feel like our starting pitching is being held together by duct tape.

Estrada has been beyond abysmal lately.
Stroman just can't get a handle on it.
Even Happ got shredded for a 4 run inning the other day.
Sanchez and his whole situation, plus he hasn't been as dominant lately either.
Plus Liriano and Dickey are...well, decent depth starters, but not good enough to pick up the slack when the top of the rotation is sucking.

Team has been pretty pathetic for a few weeks now. They are just lucky the rest of the AL (except the Royals, puke) has been mediocre too.

Was certainly hoping for a better showing this week against the two worst teams in the AL.

End rant.

Well, the good news is Santana likely only has one more inning left in him and we saw what the Twins pen is capable of yesterday.

The other piece of good news is the O's are losing by 5 currently.

That's about all the good news to report for today.
