The future is extremely bright. This team is poised to become something special over the next decade if they don't screw up.

So the season really comes down to this: Really, really need to sweep this very bad Red Sox team - a team that may have even given up to a degree of even going out with dignity. I doubt they catch the Mariners. Those guys play their last 9 against 3 bad teams. Their best bet is catching the Rays - who have a really tough six game stretch coming up - unless the Astros sit guys, but I think that won't happen until after this series. Same with the Yankees, whom the Orioles play after the Sox - they might rest guys after their current series - if the Astros take 2 of 3 or 3 of 3 against the Rays.
It's a longshot of course, and worst of all they have to close out with three against the Jays, whom they cannot seem to beat when anything is ever on the line.

A very nice tribute and unexpected. But my grammar teacher would have had something bad to say about that headline.

Well, they pretty much blew it over the past two nights. Pitching was horrendous on Tuesday, last night they couldn't hit.

Losing three of four to a terrible Boston club after splitting with a team as good as the Astros... that's inconsistency, and it is the hallmark of a team that is not quite ready. They need at least one good starter and they need to find a way to get consistency - the mark of the professional - from the team.

Win one, lose one to the Yankees. Equally important, they have so far not handed Judge his record breaker. Here's hoping they can keep all his hits inside the park tomorrow, as well. It would be sweet if he fell one shy of breaking the record. If he wants me to root for him he should go play for one of the other 29 teams.

Sorry for the Yanks eliminating the Os from the post season. If the Yanks didn’t have their August slump, they might’ve helped you guys by winning more games against Tampa and Toronto.

Took the final series from the Yanks, not that it really matters. Kept Judge out of the record books, which is sweet. Now Yankee fans will have to root for that by remote control!

A winning season is a tremendous, amazing accomplishment. I think I saw yesterday only 3 teams have lost as many games as the Orioles did last year and had a winning season the next - in the entire history of MLB. Yes, the future is very bright for this very, very young team. Another good starter away really from being a serious contender, and some experience. Getting the notch on their belt of a winning season should give them momentum going in to next year, which is pretty important.

Indeed. I'd have been much happier if I'd listened to the Orioles instead of the Ravens. Words I thought I would never utter again.

Orioles claim Jeff Cave from Twins. A scratch-and-dent sale guy, drafted in 2011 and mediocre stats. From Kubatko.
