I read that Chris Davis has struck out 33 times in his last 66 at bats. That is preposterous for any player, and Davis was once considered a star. Something needs to be done to make baseball a little more compelling.

Davis had 4 Ks in 4 ABs last night to "improve" his strike out rate. Unfortunately for the Orioles, Davis has a few more yours remaining on his big contract.

My favorite stat this year so far is that not one pitcher has more than 1 shutout. Can nobody go 9?

With such a high frequency of strikeouts, keeping pitch counts within "perceived" reason contributes to the disappearing solo shutout.

There may also be a clause in the Bull Pen Union (BPU) manifesto that requires minimum daily work of one inning.
