You knew they were coming. Maybe you can't look away like a bad car accident. Maybe that is what the 2018 Baltimore Orioles are... a bad car accident. But now they are finally being released and its not pretty. The American League has a handful of tanking teams... multiple 100 loss tanking teams. The Orioles are 1 of those teams. Far from the days when they were making the playoffs they land in the showdown ranks as the worst overall points team with no upside in sight. What is most sad is the rich history this team has with some really good teams.... Frank Robinson would not be happy seeing this showdown team take the field. Me and Peter breakdown in the podcast on Youtube just how bad they are and if any players are draftable.
Let's see what this lineup has in store.
Bench...
The pitching staff isn't any prettier. In fact it might be worse to look at so avert your eyes. Be warned this will not be a pretty site. Children please have an adult near by...
Woof that was rough to look at. Maybe you didn't even look and if you didn't the ball is now in the stands.... The bullpen though has maybe 2 people that can find a place in a deep deep league. And at least they don't give up home runs.
As always follow me on Twitter @BobBumbarger. Let me know what you guys think of this team. Anyone I missed that you are drafting? Spread the word and also subscribe to the Podcast.
That may be the worst showdown team ever...
ReplyDeleteAt least when the turn-of-the-millennium A's stuffed their lineups with DHs the players could actually hit the ball.
ReplyDeleteSadly, this is better than I expected for my O's. As disappointing as it was, I'm kinda glad Manny got free :/
