The Orioles' hot start is no doubt surprising, but even more incredible is the fact that they were able to win their first seven games of the season despite some short starts from their rotation.
The offense has been able to compensate, especially in a three-game series at Fenway Park in which the Orioles scored nine runs each of the first two nights.
But we know that the offense won't always be there -- we've seen this play out before -- that the Orioles can't depend on swatting multiple homers every night, so they will have to get better results from their starters.
