Interesting bump, but yes the Orioles have been the real surprise team this year.

I wasnt doing it to be a dick. I know you know your baseball and I bumped it due to you knowing baseball, saying what you did, and seeing how crazy this sport is. I thought they were descent back than, but never thought they would be right on the yankees ass. if it was an idiot who said what you said I wouldnt have bumped it.....i guess its a compliment to you. :)

-31 differential, 29 games in which they only have 1 or 0 hits with Runners in scoring position.

Nice story, but they're smoke and mirrors.

This year is smoke and mirrors, but Machado is looking like the real deal. And if Bundy can remain healthy, and maybe the Orioles learn that a cutter isn't a bad pitch, they could be a real dangerous team in a year or two.

Baseball indeed is a crazy sport. As Whitesox901 points out there is a lot to point to this year being an aberration like the run differential and their ridiculously good record in 1 run games (24-7) and extra inning games (12-2), but the bottom teams in the AL East (Orioles and Jays) are going to be real good in a few years with the pieces coming up through their system.
