Last Place is Fine

After tonight's win against the Red Sox, the Orioles are 61-65 and in last place in the East. The Eastern Division is tough this year and the Birds are making positive strides towards .500. It's been an exciting season for the Orioles with promising young stars making contributions like Luke Scott, Nick Markakis, Adam Jones and George Sherrill. It's still a work-in-progress, but the front office is laying the ground work for success. They haven't dipped too far under the break even mark and have an outside shot at a winning record. The farm system has exhibited marked improvement. The Orioles show promise for the future. I'm happy with what I've seen thus far. They may be in last place, but they are no doormat. They compete and that's all that matters for now.
