The Orioles declined to tender Lough a contract for 2016, Eduardo A. Encina of the Baltimore Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lough appeared in 84 games with the O's last season but made just 34 starts, and he did not do much with the opportunities he was given. The 29-year-old turned in a .555 OPS with five walks in 144 plate appearances, so even though he was not in line for much of a raise in his first year of arbitration eligibility, it was still to much for the little he provides.
