You think we can hit KC pitching? Seems like for the last 2 plus weeks we make most starters look like CY candidates.....lol

The hitting on this team will always leave a lot to be desired.  It's just something Oriole fans will have to put up with going forward. Unless they bring up someone from AAA and he alters the offense in a positive way.  Unlike last night, this is a team that keeps games tight and hopefully, gets a big hit here or there to win most.  But I don't see any marked improvement coming up the pike for the hitting.

The problem is our starting pitching isn't good enough to keep enough games close.

For the most part the starting pitching has been decent,  but they just do not deliver enough innings.

 

The lineup is the problem.  It is very streaky and right now, has some noticeable holes.  I think it is time to bring up some of the young hitters at AAA.  

Losing Cedric has been a killer.  He makes the lineup look better.

I tend to agree but I guess technically he really hasn’t hurt the lineup given Hicks production since he’s been here. I think he will hurt though, SSS. Offense has been sliding a bit since May.

Well the longer you get production out of Hicks the closer you get to Ceds return.
