After every win comes the moment when you check the standings and start doing the mental math of what it will take for this team to play meaningful baseball again.
This team and this problem are on my mind when I’m planting flowers with my family, at the playground, driving to work, grocery shopping, having a late-night beer or three, driving home from hockey, trying to enjoy my morning coffee.
Unfortunately for the Orioles, the pending returns of injured players are a meek balm for what are increasingly feeling like mortals wounds to this season.
