    Why does Jordan Lyles have a job?

    Jordy made his tenth consecutive start last night.
    He lost again.
    0 and 8 now.

    Jordy is on pace to obliterate every season record for ineptness.
    0 and 8
    ERA 7.11

    And he's given up the most gopher balls in MLB
    14 in 10 starts.

    Yeah,
    That kind of stinky.

    What's mind boggling is Lyles has been pitching Major League ball for twelve seasons.
    At what point does somebody tell Lyles that this pitching career isn't working out.

    He's a 66-98 lifetime pitcher with a career ERA over five.

    I'm a KC Royals fan, I see this hamburger pitch every fifth/sixth day.
    It's painful.

    Here, see for yourself.

    ^
    Did KC score?
    One

    In Lyles previous four starts KC scored 24 runs, he managed to lose those games too.

    Kluber looked done last year as a starting pitcher why he not apply for a bullpen type role job.

    Jordy actually won a game, snapping the MLB record (the one he broke earlier this season) for the longest winless streak by a SP to start a season. (0-15)

    1-11 now (4 ND losses)

    Rays must have felt bad for him. They quit on that game
