The Orioles Won!!!
I gotta say, though in general they suck, Brian Matusz is an absolute stud. 2-0 so far this year and was a blown save from being 3-0. He is a definite AL ROY candidate. O's actually hit something today too!

1. Orioles MVP for sure.
Its probably not a coincidence that he's got the same amount of wins as the team...

2. I actually think
overall they aren't that bad. It's really just their bullpen that is that bad. I like their young pitching a lot and they have a decent offensive team.

5. Markakis and Jones were in a huge slump that they are just now getting out of.
ROberts was awful to start and is now on the DL. Tejada started our terrible and as he got his hitting stroke back, landed on the DL. Felix Pie was hitting in the mid .350s and then landed on the DL

6. Why in the world did they bring Tejada back?
I mean its pretty obvious that it was steroids that made him a good hitter. He's not seemed to be the same caliber of player since testing started.
