Starting rotation
It's hard to argue with the overall outcome, since the Orioles won last week's road series in Toronto and split a four-game set against the Yankees to finish tied 9-9 for this year's season series, but it wasn't one of the starting rotation's better weeks. The starters, led by newcomer Joe Saunders' two victories, finished the week with a 3-3 record, but got knocked around enough to register a mediocre 4.74 ERA. Obviously, this would not be a good time to start giving up a lot of runs making early exits, since the Tampa Bay Rays are on their way to open a three-game series at Camden Yards on Tuesday night.

Chris Davis is so frustrating. It seems that guy is always 2 strikes down. Then thr usual last strike "flail" at the ball where he looks like he is just flicking the bat. So Damn frustrating!
