I'd say 91-97 could net us the division

Lots of al east head to head matchups coming up. I think there will be some separation coming. MFY will affect the race. They aren't good enough to stay in WC race but they will spoil one of the other 3 contenders in AL East.

One-third through the season the Orioles are on an amazing 93-Win pace.

Amazing, considering how bad the starting pitching as been.

In the AL:

Offense

5th in runs with 255, on pace for 765

2nd in homers with 80, on pace for 240

6th in average with .261

4th in OBP with .324 (Major improvement of 2015 at .307)

2nd in slugging pct with .450

3rd in OPS with .774

Fielding pct

12th with .984 (Very poor, 2015 at .987)

Pitching

8th in ERA with 4.15

13th in Starter ERA with 4.99 (Major draw back for the team)

2nd in Reliever ERA with 2.81

o

(JULY 21st)

At 54-40 overall, the Orioles are on pace to win ........ 93 games this season.

o

ALMOST 2 MONTHS LATER ......

We're almost 2/3 of the way into the season now, and the Orioles are on pace to win ........ 93 games.

o

We're almost 90 percent of the way into the season, and the Orioles are on pace to win ........ between 89 and 90 games.

In order to finish with 93 wins, they would have to go 13-4 the rest of the way.

    • I also went with Burnes because of his better durability. Since 2019 Snell has pitched more then 128 innings in a season one time (180 innings in 2023). While Burnes has pitched over 167 inning or more every season since becoming a full time starter in 2021. Burnes is also two years younger so in theory while a six year contract is riskier it would end at the same age as Snell on a four year deal. I'd be happy with either one, but my preference in Burnes.
    • Adding that I would go for Roki over either of them.
    • I'd go for Snell. He has true Cy Young stuff. Burnes is really good but his K rate keeps dropping and the years scare me. The box score for his playoff start was solid but he actually gave up a lot of hard contact. I just don't trust him enough to commit all those years and dollars.
    • I go Burnes because to me the higher floor is very important with this sort of deal. I feel like Snell's skillset is more on a razor's edge-- if you didn't like how Burnes pitched in August, Snell is almost certainly more prone to stretches of poor performance like that. Even if he is more dominant at other times to balance it out. Plus, the extra length of Burnes' deal is offset a bit by being 2 years younger. 
    • Snell is injury prone and Burnes is a tough workhorse.
    • Didn't see the video? The ball went maybe 15 feet before it bounced, it was rolling by the dugout.  It was nothing and the Dodgers look soft. Was he supposed to let the discarded ball stay on the field?
    • Rojas pulled from the bases in the 3rd inning after he couldn't manage 2nd to home on a Mookie single (and Ohtani couldn't 1st to 3rd behind him) as the Dodgers try to dig out of 6-1.    Rojas' limited mobility hurt the Dodgers defense on a Bogaerts ground ball where Merrill was too quick going first to second, and Rojas ended up getting no outs on a routine ground ball. Manny with a cagey zigzag baserunning move during the Padres 6-run inning off Buehler, getting into Freeman's throwing lane to put Buehler into the jam. Teoscar grand slam brings it back to 6-5 in the 3rd inning...get your popcorn ready.
