Over the last 20 games Baltimore is 7-13. What is interesting is that 4 of the 13 losses were by one run and 2 other losses that were by more than one run happened with the opposing teams last at bat. With a couple of bounces here and there Baltimore could be 13-7 over the last 20. They have a couple of young relief pitchers that have the oppertunity to get better as the year goes on. Jorge Julio, Rick Bauer, and B.J. Ryan.

Not saying that Baltimore is a live dog, all I'm saying is keep an eye out. Remember Mike hargrove took and Indians team that lost over 100 games to the brink of winning the world series. He is smart Manager/ We know that now........:(

Charlie Manual is a great hitting coach, as seen by the offensive power the Tribe had over the last 5-6 years. As a manager he doesn't know when to pull the plug on the starting pitcher, or the reliever for that matter. He seems to be stuck in the Earl Weaver mode, beat you with pitching and 3 run home runs. Haven't got much of the 3 run home runs, but the pitching hasn't been all that bad as a whole. They have some young guns, but I think they need more of a kick butt manager to get the most out of them. He's too laid back. Love to see him back as the hitting coach.

Of course it's just my opinion for what it's worth.
