Orioles series loss to the Cubs shows they might need reinforcements soon

The Baltimore Orioles lost another series over the weekend — this one to the Chicago Cubs — and have now lost four of their last seven series. Host Connor Newcomb takes a look at which players from Triple-A could join the Orioles to help them get back to their winning ways.

First, Connor looks at potential bullpen upgrades like Nick Vespie, Eduard Bazardo, and DL Hall. Then, Connor discusses how Jordan Westburg and Colton Cowser would make this lineup better right now.

But first, Connor recaps the Orioles 5-3 victory over the Cubs on Sunday which allowed them to avoid the sweep, and gives you the five things you need to know from the win, including Ryan O'Hearn staying hot, the defense having an interesting fourth inning, and the bullpen getting back on track.
