"Orioles struggle against Cubs despite Taillon's bad luck"
The Baltimore Orioles had a mixed week, winning two of three against the Blue Jays but losing two of three against the Cubs. The Cubs series exposed some of the team's weaknesses, including a revolving door at the fifth rotation spot, a terrible middle of the bullpen, and one of the least valuable middle infields in the game. However, Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson's healthy competition and Austin Hays' offensive performance were bright spots. The article also discusses the disappointing performance of Cionel Perez and the poor umpiring during the Cubs series. The author calls for the promotion of Colton Cowser and Jordan Westburg and the replacement of Perez with Nick Vespi.
