This is starting to feel like 2005 for Baltimore fans.
The team just took another series, this time against Oakland, and is going to finish April in the unlikely position of leading the AL East. And, like 2005, i just can’t see it lasting. Admittedly, it was really not until July that the Orioles collapsed in '05, and i’ll be very happy if the team can continue their good run for a while, but i really don’t see it happening
Their next 15 games are against the Yankees, Red Sox, Rangers, and Rays. If they can play .500 or better over that stretch, i’ll begin to believe that they might be more than a flash in the pan, but my prediction is that they won’t be at the top of the division by the middle of May.
