Description

There are problems with the current iteration of the Orioles. That was to be expected. After all, they are in the midst of an extensive rebuild that is still nowhere near its completion. But the issues that ail the O’s are not the things that were expected to be a bother throughout the winter.

The team’s pitching has actually been pretty good. Sure, we could nit-pick at guys like Shawn Armstrong or Jorge López, but it makes more sense to praise standout performances from John Means, Bruce Zimmermann, and basically the entirety of the bullpen. Not to mention that Matt Harvey has been a surprisingly stable presence in the middle of the rotation.

Instead, the trouble has come from the Orioles lineup, which has found itself in far too many low-scoring affairs and unable to hit their way out of it. That issue was compounded this week as right fielder Anthony Santander sprained his left ankle while retreating to first base on a pick-off attempt. He’s expected to be out up to four weeks.

On this week’s episode, the guys discuss the lengthy slump of Ryan Mountcastle, the injury to Santander, the possibility of trading Means, and the return of first-round pick Heston Kjerstad.
