The Baltimore Orioles were the most successful Major League Baseball team from the middle 1960s until the middle 1980s. Considered to be the child of the St. Louis Browns, Baltimore Orioles have been way more successful than the Browns ever were.
Many Hall of Famers have been a part of the Baltimore Orioles. Led by Brooks Robinson, Frank Robinson and Jim Palmer the team won 100 games or more in the 1969-1971 seasons making it an impossible feat for the modern team to match. Earl Weaver was their manager then and the team possessed it all, great pitching, defense, and power hitters. Superstar Orioles, Eddie Murray, Mike Flanagan and Ken Singleton kept up the tradition in the late 1970s.
Overall, Baltimore Orioles have won three World Series Championships; in 1966, 1970 1982. They however, missed three other times when Baltimore Orioles were the most favorites. The 1969 loss is considered to be the most embarrassing.
Baltimore Orioles moved to the state of the art 'throwback' stadium Oriole Park at Camden Yards in the 1990s and twice had a shot at returning to the World Series but were defeated.
Cal Ripken Jr is their most popular player, the iron man who broke Lou Gehrig's consecutive games played streak and who won two MVP awards for Baltimore. The 2001 season was his last in the Major Leagues and he received numerous gifts and accolades. He played his final game on Oct. 6, 2001 and finished the year hitting .239 with 14 homers and 68 RBI. He capped his career by hitting a home run in the All-Star Game and winning the MVP award. Since then the Orioles have continued their rebuilding in the post-Ripken era.
$40 million have been spent in overhauling the Oriole bullpen by adding Aubrey Huff and a solid all-around player, Jay Payton. They hope to make some noise in the AL East in the 2007 season. With proven veterans such as Jamie Walker, Chad Bradford, Danny Baez, and Scott Williamson, things have been looking up.
Miguel Tejada is also somebody to look forward, too. He has posted 3 of his 4 best seasons and his offensive production as an Oriole has collected 616 hits, 84 home runs, 348 RBIs and 295 runs all while anchoring the infield at shortstop. He makes up a stellar middle infield duo with former All-Star, Brian Roberts.
There are no position battles to settle this season but they have options regarding who should get the most playing time at first base. Huff will split time with Kevin Millar at first base. Jay Gibbons will continue to serve as the designated hitter.
Baltimore Orioles will field a talented outfield consisting of Payton, ballhawk Corey Patterson, and Nick Markakis (as third hitter). Huff will play a variety of positions especially when they face left-handed pitchers as he batted .301 with a .341 on-base percentage when facing right-handers compared to hitting .207 with a .238 on-base mark against lefties. This should allow Patterson to keep his speedy legs healthy and fresh throughout the season.
The Baltimore Orioles have loads of young talent this season and with Leo Mazzone’s coaching, Erik Bedard, Daniel Cabrera and Adam Loewen should provide stability for the O's rotation in 2007 and beyond.
