    What do you think? If folks can get healthy, then it’ll look good!

    I think health is a key, we got Hardy back but now Lee and Roberts are out, if we can see all of them together I like this offense. Also Matusz coming back will be huge!

    Also it is worth nothing that the O’s have played an even tougher schedule than normal so far. Most of the AL (sorry Twins) is competitive this year, and the A.L. East is tougher than ever.

    It will be interesting with Matusz back to see how our pitching staff looks. I’m not completely sold on Arrieta yet, but we’lll see. Who takes over the 5th spot? Tillman or Bergesen?

    If Roberts and Lee can get healthy and get consistent (and Markakis too), the offense should be at least average. Jones has been great for us this year, and Guerrero has been surprisingly good. Wieters has slowly but steadily improved thus far at the plate, and he’s been great catching.

    I hope we can be a .500 team by the end of the year, so we have something to build on!

    I think Arrieta is good but not great, and should be a nice number 4 longterm. For me Tillman is still the number 5 starter in the long run, but he does need to imrove.

    If this team gets healthy I really think .500 is within reach
