Season Previews: Baltimore Orioles


With pitchers and catchers reporting to Spring Training camps this week, it's time for one of our favorite things in all the world: Season Previews. Three years ago, they began as a semi-serious analysis and ended up as half-assed haiku. We're just gonna go with what we know. Moving right along with our preview of the American League East, here are the Baltimore Orioles.

Suckfest in '09
Just sixty-four victories
Man, that is crappy

Guthrie is all set
Brad Bergesen is a klutz
New Spring Training park!

We love Matt Wieters
Tejada at third or short?
Jones in center field

The Oriole Bird
Is eating that lady's head
Hope she's had her shots

The O's will be worst
In the American League
...worse than the Royals.

Speaking of Kevin Millwood, check out the spankin' new Line Up Forms, where you can learn things like: how to grip a four-seam fastball. Pretty sweet.

Just found this, but are you seriously picking the Orioles to be last in the American league this season? Please don't crush my hopes this early!

Aww Liz! If it makes you feel any better, I do see some shades of '96 and '97 in there somewhere. They're definitely transitioning into a contender with some improved pitching...

Don't get me wrong, I know they aren't post-season bound this year but man it would be nice to win more than 70 games. I have hope that Matusz will at least be exciting to watch.
