The Orioles Are Struggling In New York

Zach Wilt of Baltimore Sports Report and MLB Network Radio joined the Scott Garceau Show with Jeremy Conn to talk about the Orioles rough week in the big apple. JJ Hardy made his return to the Orioles lineup Thursday night after missing the first month and a half of the regular season. Zach gave his thoughts on the Gold Glover's return. "Just having having his presence there with the middle of the infield defense is big. The Orioles were dipping below Ryan Flaherty with Rey Navarro in there and it's important to remember that when looking at their progress over the first month plus of the season."

Many Orioles fans are looking at Chris Tillman's performance so far this season as a failure. Tillman has 4 losses 6 appearances so far this season and things are not looking up. Zach believes it's still to early to rule out Tilly as an ace of the staff. "It's still so early for me to judge Chris Tillman. I was looking at his splits from last season and he went 2-1 with a 5.86 ERA in May of last season. Then in June he had a 3.10 ERA and really dialed it up in August with a 1.33."
