The Baltimore Orioles have received yet another blow to their pitching staff.
They were already without their superstar closer Felix Bautista for this entire campaign following his Tommy John surgery. Then, three of their starters underwent season-ending surgeries followed by their star reliever Danny Coulombe getting sidelined until sometime in September if everything goes right.to examine what is being described as an "injured lat."reported they have now moved important reliever Jacob Webb to the 15-day injured list with elbow inflammation.
Webb is also a very unique weapon since the right-hander is actually better when facing lefty batters, holding them to a batting average of .125. Without him in the mix, an increased reliance will be placed upon the shoulders of their left-handers Cionel Perez and the struggling Gregory Soto. Hopefully this inflammation is something that can be cured with some rest and Webb is back in the mix for the stretch run, but elbow issues like this are always tricky to deal with, something that Baltimore understands perhaps better than anyone.Brad Wakai graduated from Penn State University with a degree in Journalism.
