It was interesting to hear Yost reference All Star weekend last season in the press conference introducing the new guys. That weekend really showed Glass that if he puts something out there, we will come.

The Orioles were incredibly good/lucky in one-run games. You outperformed your pythag ratings by 11 games, the most in baseball by far. It was nearly 2x as big a difference as the next-closest team (San Francisco).

16-2 in extra innings. (next closest was 11-5. 20 percent gap in WP%)
29-9 in one run games. (+10 compared to league average)

Those are ratios that are highly unlikely to be repeated. Yes, Baltimore had an excellent bullpen in 2012... but even a LITTLE slippage from that group could blow up a lot of what made Baltimore's

It's perfectly possible Baltimore will win just as much in 2013, but the O's would need to be a much better team to do that. It's also possible the O's are actually BETTER in 2013 than 2012 but have a worse record.
You're going to need to trim this down to 140 characters if you expect him to understand it.

And get Danny Knobler to re-tweet it, right? Then it's legit...

Nope we will see in 2013 what happens. No need to talk about it.
You post like how I imagine a caveman would.

Spot on. Math is very clear that the O's are in trouble if they don't improve their actual team.

Thats really only because the rosters arent set yet. Free agents need to be signed, players traded, they usually wait till spring training to release computer simulations. It doesn't mean CAIRO's useless, just that its too early because other teams aren't set yet.

I'll be down for a week on 3/21. My brother is coming down from Kalispell to meet us, you guys could talk about shoes that look like tennis rackets.

All fellow Montanans are good in my book! Tell him to leave his snow shoes at home.
