MLB Preview 2011: Looking at Adam Jones and the Baltimore Orioles on Paper

Is this the year that Baltimore finally breaks out?

They have arguably one of the more dangerous lineups in the American League, but the pitching is young and unproven. If the O's can get some solid production from the staff, it's a possibility that Baltimore can eclipse the .500 mark for the first time in 13 years.

Buck Showalter was brought in to become the new manager in August and did a remarkable job. The O's went 34-23 under Showalter during August and September.
