Kyle McPherson pounded in loss to Orioles
Kyle McPherson - R - Pittsburgh Pirates
March 8, 2013 - 10:30 PM ET

Kyle McPherson was roughed up in Friday's loss to the Orioles, surrendering four runs on six hits over his three frames.

He walked one while punching out three on the night. Most of the damage came in the third inning, where the O's used three hits and a hit batsman to push across three runs. McPherson has posted a 9.39 ERA and 5/4 K/BB ratio through 7 2/3 innings this spring, all but assuring that he begins the season at Triple-A Indianapolis. He holds no fantasy value at the moment.
