Start with the pitching totals and they are ridiculous

O's lead the league in ERA, Bullpen ERA, tied for first in Saves, 2nd to Chi in Opp BA, tied for 2nd in HR's allowed.

Offensively is where the O's still have upside and can improve to help when the pitching starts to regress back to the mean.
5th in AL in BA, 3rd in HR's, 6th in runs scored, 4th in slugging, 5th in OPS.
