Baltimore Orioles Power Rankings - 2013
| Power Ranking | ||||
| WEEK | RECORD | RANK | COMMENT | |
| Week 8 | 23-20 | 13 | So much depends upon a makeshift Orioles starting rotation glazed by mounting losses beside the youthful hitters. -- Jon Shepherd, Camden Depot | |
| Week 7 | 23-15 | 4 | Orioles pitchers keep dropping like flies, but the offense led by Chris Davis, Adam Jones and Manny Machado has helped to put them alone in second place in the AL East behind the Yankees. -- Jon Shepherd, Camden Depot | |
| Week 6 | 19-13 | 8 | The Orioles have played 20 of their 32 games on the road, winning more than they have lost. This sets them up well for the rest of the year as home teams have an 8 percent advantage in winning a game. -- Jon Shepherd, Camden Depot | |
| Week 5 | 15-10 | 5 | The Orioles are keeping pace, sitting three games behind in the AL East with the help of the resurgent Nate McLouth, who refuses to get out in 46 percent of his trips to the plate. -- Jon Shepherd, Camden Depot | |
| Week 4 | 10-8 | 11 | After winning two of three games against the Dodgers, the Orioles are two games over .500. However, there is a feeling that the starting pitching needs to be strengthened since Jake Arrieta and Chris Tillman have issues going deep into games. -- Jon Shepherd, Camden Depot | |
| Week 3 | 6-6 | 10 | Matt Wieters has had a very slow start to the season (a .200 batting average and just a .604 OPS) in the Orioles' first 12 games. -- ESPN.com | |
| Week 2 | 3-3 | 8 | The heroics of Chris Davis' four home runs (one in each of the Orioles' first four games) has helped overcome the poor performances from their starting rotation. Now, off to Boston and New York for a six-game trip, the rest of the team will need to show up. -- Jon Shepherd, Camden Depot | |
| Week 1 | 0-0 | 13 | The Orioles' hope this season is for another playoff appearance, not simply a winning record. Plus, it is backed by the exploits of Manny Machado and a starting rotation that performed well last season. -- Jon Shepherd, Camden Depot | |
