Baltimore Orioles SP Chris Tillman pitched only 2 innings, giving up 6 runs on 6 hits and a walk, while striking out just 1 batter in a 10-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Monday.
Our Instinct: In 4 starts since being recalled, the 22 year old Tillman has looked over matched by big league hitters. He’s 0-3 with an 8.40 era, 7 k’s, and 8 walks in 15 innings. The plug may be pulled soon and he may be headed back to the minors to work things out. He’s got the stuff so don’t give up on him long term, but putting into your starting lineup right now is foolish.
