Pineda (6-12) gave up five earned runs on six hits and three walks over 4.1 innings in Friday's 8-1 loss to the Orioles. He struck out five.
The hard-throwing righty was lit up over the fourth and fifth innings, giving up a two-run double to Jonathan Schoop and homers to Adam Jones and Mark Trumbo, with the latter's two-run blast in the fifth chasing Pineda from the game. The 27-year-old had been solid over his previous four starts -- giving up just five earned runs over the 23.2 innings in that span -- so Friday's results represented a definite regression. Pineda wraps up a disappointing 2016 with a career-high 12 losses, 1.35 WHIP and 4.82 ERA.
