A team that sat at 21–29 on May 22nd after a rough sweep at the hands of the Rays in Tampa and was buried in last place in the AL East has completely changed the narrative over the past two weeks.
As of this morning, the Orioles are just 0.5 games out of the third Wild Card spot and have climbed into third place in the division.
This Orioles team is something. The Nationals have the worst ERA in baseball, and the O's are on the verge of getting shut out. The Nats starting pitcher is one of the WORST in baseball, and the O's couldn't get even 1 run off him. Absolutely embarrassing

News free at ESPN: Shane Baz and the Orioles are nearing a five-year, $68 million contract extension that will begin this season and buy out two years of free agency. Baltimore's effort to stabilize its starting rotation are even clearer with this deal: https://t.co/jdJYz6plIy
This season is chalked. What we're seeing right now is what we're gonna continue to see for the rest of the season. I don't care that it's only May. The pitching stinks, the hitting is horrendous, and the defense doesn't exist. Unbelievably frustrating
