Ivan Nova gave up five runs and seven hits in four innings of work against the Orioles on Sunday night. Adam Jones and Matt Wieters both homered off him in the first, and while Nova gave up just one more run after that, the Orioles didn't stop hitting him. Nova is now 0-2 with a 7.82 ERA in 12 2/3 innings for the spring. His rotation spot really shouldn't be in any danger, but his 16-win rookie season won't leave him with too much margin for error if he struggles next month.
