Off Day Pulse of the Fans
As we face the harsh reality of another Monday without baseball, this seems like a perfect time to gauge the pulse of Birdland.
The Orioles stand at 15-14, and are a half a game behind the New York Yankees for first place in the American League East. Despite this, the season has been very up-and-down thus far. Consider:
- Matt Wieters and Nelson Cruz have been absolute beasts.
- Manny Machado has played just 4 games in 2014. He’s shown up defensively, but has been almost an offensive non-factor while regaining his timing at the plate.
- Chris Davis has missed 7 games due to a strained oblique.
- The offense has mustered just 23 runs in the last 7 games.
- In the last 7 games, the starting rotation has logged 40 IP (5.7/game) with a 3.15 ERA. The Orioles have gone 4-3 in that span.
- In the same period, the bullpen has logged 23 IP, with a 4.70 ERA.
What do you make of this team this early in the season? Please help us check the pulse of the fans.
