The Baltimore Orioles are having a really, really bad year.
At 29-73, they own Major League Baseball’s worst record, and recently traded away two of their star players in Manny Machado and Zach Britton.
Oh, they’re also 41 1/2 games back of the American League East-leading Boston Red Sox, and are on pace to have the most losses in franchise history.
But the Orioles just aren’t bad in the standings, they’re so bad that one MLB scout had enough after just a few nights.
An #MLB scout on the 29-73 #Orioles: "I watched them for a couple of nights, and I was hoping I'd either get hit on the head by a foul ball or struck by lightning.''

Yikes.
There really isn’t a light at the end of the tunnel this season for Baltimore. The team (and scouts) just have to fight through the rest of this dreadful campaign and hope for a better 2019.
