During the 2013 season, Drew Forrester and Luke Jones of The D&L Window Tinting Morning Reaction will provide the “12-Game Scorecard” for the Orioles, rating the club in 12-game increments in a number of categories and looking ahead to how Baltimore will fare over the next dozen games on the schedule.

(*Editor’s note: The latest 12-game increment ended on Friday night, meaning the second game of the Toronto series technically wasn’t considered in this latest scorecard that was completed during Friday morning’s show.)
