After a feel-good win yesterday, the Orioles put up a clunker today. As is often the way, they were unable to score much until the late innings, and this time it was too little, too late. And the recently very steady Kyle Bradish struggled and lasted just four innings. It was not a winning combo […]

With less than three weeks remaining before the 2026 NHL Draft, projected No. 1 overall pick Gavin McKenna appears increasingly comfortable with the possibility of becoming the next cornerstone of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Speaking at the NHL Scouting Combine…
Worcester: W, 6-3 (BOX SCORE) The WooSox did not have an ordinary assignment today. The opposing pitcher on the mound was a guy you may have heard of named Max Scherzer, a bonafide hall-of-famer in the twilight of his career on a rehab assignment for Buffalo (Blue Jays AAA) from forearm tendonitis and ankle inflammation. […]
Guests: Sean Reynolds of Sportsnet and former NHLer Mike Commodore.
Profile Position: Point guard Height: Six-foot-one Weight: 180 pounds Comparisons: Tyus Jones, Marquis Teague, Earl Watson Raptors Comparisons: Fred VanVleet (not as good defensively), Jose Calderon (smaller and not as good of a passer) Strengths Perimeter-shooting Anderson has a case for being the best shooter in the draft. That lone selling point should be enough […]
He's been my favourite prospect all year and it seems everyone's caught on to his potential and will probably take him out of Toronto's range so nobody talk to me I'm extremely upset.
Good morning Birdland, There was a whole lot of goodness in the Orioles 13-3 beatdown of the Blue Jays on Friday night, and perhaps just one small (for now) thing to worry about. First, the good news. The Orioles looked amazing, even if it took a little while for the offense to get it going. […]

We heard that Kent Hughes was working on a deal right up to the trade deadline that never happened. We also heard that a trade had come in too late that day. Elliotte Freidman confirms that an agreement was in place for Montreal to acquire Matthew Knies from the Toronto Maple Leafs, but one party was one minute too slow in submitting the paperwork.

Haters and doubters take note: The Orioles are still doing this thing. It is easier to feel like they might be able to keep doing it after games like this one. The Birds rallied from a 3-1 deficit heading into the sixth inning to take the lead and blow past the Blue Jays, piling on […]
Orioles A Lot Blue. Jays A little. That was less than fun. Everything that mattered happened in the bottom of the fifth and the top of the sixth. The Jays scored two in the top of the fifth. With two out George Springer reached on catcher interference, yet again. They are going to name catcher […]
It is Friday night. The Orioles rallied from a 3-1 deficit in the sixth inning to turn the game around into a laugher against the Blue Jays, eventually winning 13-3 in the opener of the series.

Another Trey Day. It seems like a good day to get a win streak going. I’m hopeful. And it is Pride Day. And the roof is open. Aall is good in the world. Or will be if the Jays win. Apparently the Jays are moving Sean Keys up to Buffalo. He was doing great in […]
O's and Blue Jays split four games in Baltimore
The Orioles and Blue Jays split a four-game set in Camden Yards only a week ago. The peculiarities of MLB scheduling have brought them together once again, this time in Toronto. It’s a three-game set this time, so one team will walk away as a series winner and the other will be a series loser. […]
