Good morning, Camden Chatters.
If someone had told you back in January that the Orioles would be in prime position for a postseason berth by August — and then that person disappeared before providing any other context — you’d be pretty happy, right? I know I would have.
Well, guess what? Here we are, on August 11, and if the season ended today, the Orioles would be in the playoffs. Eight AL teams will get in this year — the first- and second-place finishers in each division, plus the next two best teams — and currently, the Orioles are part of that “elite” group with their 7-7 record.
