Why you would bring back possibly the worst starter in baseball last year and hand him a rotation spot with nothing behind him is beyond me. Literal idiocy and you deserve to lose every game he starts.

You don't just bring him back, you guarantee him 3 m! Who makes these decisions?

Tillman shouldnt get another start untill he shows something extra in a BP session. This is terrible.

It's time to end this. I feel bad for him because he's so young and can't do what he has done all of his life.

But Buck loves him.  You have no heart.

I am a huge Tilly fan, I think they need to find a tightness in a muscle and some rehab assignments.

[capyy]

What happened to the Asher and Ynoa types? I'd much rather see them spot the other team 5 runs every 5th game than see Tilman do it. At least they are in theory getting better.

This has gotta be the end of the line for Tillman.  He's never been more clearly done. 

Can't keep running him out there for guaranteed losses.  I'm not sure Chris could get Single A batters out right now. 

[Triple Crown]

It's a total disgrace to everything Orioles, continuing to give Tillman major league starts. It doesn't matter how much you care for the guy, this is a business, do the right thing. I'm sure the players feel the same way, but can't say anything out of courtesy to Tillman

I feel really bad for Tillman but every player has to face the end of their career.   I don't understand why Orioles gave him a big league contract. 

 

[ScGO's]

How many strike outs does he have this year? 3?

Asher isn't even in the Orioles organization anymore. At this point, anybody is better than Tillman. 

[Getz]

Every time Tillman starts, I just pray we don't get humiliated and lose by double digits

[Natty]

Tillman's last chance as a starter is today against Cleveland. After he gets shelled again that's it...

Or maybe it's his second to last chance, or third, or forth...

Tillman has had a lot of last chances.  You would think Tillman is Buck’s son the way keeps letting him keep start games.
