Interleague play

Well, we took two of three in Detroit, which was a relief in the end. If you've forgotten, here's the rest of our ridiculously light interleague schedule:

June 6-8: at Pittsburgh
June 10-12: at Cincinnati
June 13-15: v. Houston
June 17-19: v. Colorado
June 24-26: at Atlanta

In between the Rockies and Braves, we have a four-game set at Toronto, and after we're done with interleague, it's a three-game home series with the Yankees, and I don't suppose I need remind you that we are indeed the owners of the Yankees this season.

Interleague should result in some notches in the win column, but the Orioles are the worst team in the history of interleague play, so I have tempered my expectations.

Schedules and The East.

If you look at the upcoming schedules for the teams in the AL east there isn't any reason the Orioles can't open up an 8 or 10 lead in the East by July. How great would that be... to be up the much and to start getting your key players back?

I would have said yes...

if the O's were healthy. As it is, I think we will be lucky to stay at 3 or 4 games up over that period. Pitt and Cinn are not too bad. Hou and Col are pretty bad. Atl is of course good.

We are lucky to be hitting a soft spot in our schedule at this time, provided the O's can shake off their interleauge demons against some of the NL's lesser teams.
