givens couldn't hit so that is the reason for him being a pitcher .
Davis is 0-17 with 11 K's. I seriously doubt that Givens could do much worse.

To beat a dead horse, this is another reason to use Davis as a reverse Shohei Ohtani when the game is out of reach. After all, you could DH for Davis only if he's pitching (per Rule 5.11).

Lets up the Davis streak to 0-23 with 13 K's to start the season and 0-44 going back to last season, two shy of tying the record of longest hitless streak.

The Orioles announced over the weekend that right-hander Matt Wotherspoon has cleared waivers and been assigned outright to Triple-A Norfolk, thus freeing a spot on the 40-man roster. Baltimore had only recently selected Wotherspoon’s contract, but the 27-year-old’s first exposure to the Majors and to a 40-man roster both proved brief.

If Trumbo was healthy, we could’ve had him DH and put Mancini at first and left Davis on the bench.

The Orioles have lockers set up for right-hander Josh Lucas and lefty Tanner Scottthis morning, per MASNsports.com’s Roch Kubatko (all Twitter links), indicating that both have been brought up to the Major League roster. Lucas isn’t on the team’s 40-man roster, so his contract will be formally selected prior today’s 12:35 ET starting time. Baltimore already optioned Josh Rogers to Triple-A Norfolk following last night’s game, creating one vacancy on the 25-man roster, and the other will be created by placing lefty Richard Bleier on the injured list.

I just wish that he'd voluntarily retire so we could save all of that money. But he'd be stupid to forfeit all of that, so it's highly unlikely that it'll happen. Best case scenario is that he continues to struggle and the front office finally sees enough and just buys out the remainder of his contract so we can be done with him.

Davis' results from today's game: 3-5 (with hits against three different pitchers), 4 RBI. Hmmm...

The Mariners have acquired righty Mike Wright from the Orioles, per a club announcement. Infield Ryne Ogren will head to the Baltimore organization in return.


I can't believe we got anything for Wright.
