Hello, friends.
Today is a day for rejoicing. The Orioles won their 10th game of the season last night. They managed to do this before the calendar turned to May. One of the many truly remarkable bits of failure about the 2018 Orioles is that they never managed to win ten or more games in any single calendar month. They got to nine twice, but never ten. Yes, the 2019 Orioles may not get to ten in April either since they won two in March.
Still, it feels better than last year so far. That’s somehow true even though this year’s Orioles have about as bad of a pitching staff as everyone feared, have managed to get blown out a bunch, and have more than half of a lineup full of players who are underperforming.
