The baseball season is now officially 25% over, and if you stop and take a look at the the standings of all the teams in both leagues, one team glares out so stunningly, that you find yourself squinting and staring at the listings a second time; The Baltimore Orioles!

Organizational Outlook: Baltimore Orioles
Perhaps my favorite part about being a baseball fan is keeping tabs on the Minor Leagues. I am a prospect hugger and I take no shame in saying this. I follow all the big prospect guys on Twitter and I take in as many Penn League games as I can up here in Burlington. One thing I know is that there are plenty of you out there just like me, so this feature is for you.
It is manageable...
Hunter & Avery Sent to Minors, Chavez off the DL...
It looks like after the loss on Monday night, the Orioles decided to make some moves. As I thought, the Orioles would demote Tommy Hunter today; however, they also sent Xavier Avery back to Triple-A after scuffling pretty badly as of late.
Endy Chavez is back from the disabled list.
Although Avery did well his first week up in Baltimore and his sample size doesn't indicate...
Markakis gets rare day off due to wrist ailment
He's the closest thing the Baltimore Orioles have had to an Iron Man since Cal Ripken Jr. retired.

Markakis was hurt on a swing in the ninth inning Tuesday, and he will be examined by a specialist Thursday. X-rays taken Wednesday were negative...

Rays, Orioles struggling after hot start
ST. PETERSBURG -- The battle for bragging rights in the AL East suddenly doesn't look like all that much to brag about.

Another Frustrating Loss for the Bird up in Toronto...
On Tuesday night, the Orioles dropped their fourth game in a row as they lost to the Toronto Blue Jays, 8-6.
