Yep. I don't think the Orioles will be any good again this year. Derrek Lee can help them out though.

I don't know about that....Showalter really turned the O's around when he took over last year.

The Rays surely won't win it this year...so maybe 3rd in the division for the O's.

I wouldn't mind seeing the O's in the Playoffs next year

The Rays don't stand a chance, they have lost 3-4 key players of the Rays over the off-season already, and I wouldn't be surprised if we lose a couple more guys to get some prospects or $. In the Matt Garza trade, they received two great prospects, so that shows that they are preparing for the future. I expect this next season or two to be ugly, but watch out, the Rays will be back with a talented team once more.

Yep, Rays had a bad offseason, and with the RedSox having such a great offseason, it's going to be tough for them this year.
