    I agree that after the 2014 season, it really changed.  They let Nelson Cruz, Nick Markakis, and Andrew Miller all walk.  And they signed Travis Snyder.  An ALCS team that lost to the Royals by a grand total of 6 runs and was missing Machado, Wieters, and Davis for that entire series was given no chance to get better in the offseason. Compare this to the 1995 offseason, when we added Roberto Alomar to a very stacked but underachieving team and immediately got better.

    My favorite Orioles teams of the last several decades were the 1989 and 2012 teams.  Just so many great memories from those seasons.  Had they won titles in 1997 and 2014, those teams would have vaulted to the top of the list.  I really felt those were our years to win it all.    

     

    I can see 97, but that 2014 team would have been shut down by the Giants.

    It is what it is. Those teams weren't even good enough to make the World Series
