Jimenez vs. Ventura tonight at Camden Yards (updated)

Mike Wright made the absolute most of his do-over last night.

Ubaldo Jimenez could use a case of mulligans as he takes the mound again for tonight's game against the Royals.

Jimenez is 2-6 with a 6.59 ERA and 1.849 WHIP in 11 starts over 57 1/3 innings. He's allowed 74 hits, walked 32 and struck out 48.

Over his last five starts, Jimenez has surrendered 28 runs (24 earned) and 33 hits with 16 walks in 21 2/3 innings. To say he's due is being polite.

Left-handers are hitting .330 against Jimenez and right-handers are hitting .296.

Jimenez is 4-5 with a 4.79 ERA in 12 career starts against the Royals. Eric Hosmer is 10-for-29 with a double and two home runs, Lorenzo Cain is 8-for-17 with a home run. Alcides Escobar is 5-for-32 with two doubles, Kendrys Morales is 4-for-18 with a double and two home runs, Omar Infante is 4-for-21 and Salvador Perez is 4-for-22.

Hyun Soo Kim will return to the lineup tonight, with Trumbo most likely in right field and Pedro Alvarez serving as the designated hitter.

Davis' average is down to .213, but he's carrying a .340 on-base percentage. He was 0-for-8 with four strikeouts to close out May, and he's 2-for-17 with one home run, seven walks and eight strikeouts this month.
