Detroit has already played Boston, Baltimore has played Toronto, and New York has played Milwaukee. Boston/Toronto is the only difference in the teams the Tigers and Os have played, not counting the order of teams played on their current West Coast swings. So the Tigers are about 10 games better than Baltimore against common opponents (as a Yankee fan I haven't been paying that close attention to the standings :-o). Of course they have 13 games coming against each other, but my guess is that the Tigers will hold their own. They still haven't lost on the road, and the Orioles have played the same schedule they have. I should have majored in schedule reading!
