He adds: "Right now we're coming up short."
Question: What possible rational reason was there to option Jeremiah Jackson rather than Tyler O’Neill? What does the batting (against lefties, righties) and fielding data say? From: Steven Salop Answer: Steven, manager Craig Albernaz said that the Orioles wanted to keep three catchers for the time being since Adley Rutschman is returning from a concussion. I […]
We are one day away from the start of July, meaning trade season is about to descend upon MLB. On July 1st last year, the O’s sat 11 games below .500 and seven games out of a playoff spot. That led to one of the biggest deadline fire sales in franchise history, with Baltimore sending […]
Back in the olden days — you know, 2019-21 — Orioles fans turned their attention to the minors for reasons to be optimistic while the major league club was unwatchable. This year, with the O’s again on the verge of being an unredeemable train wreck, it’s natural to keep an eye on the farm and […]
The Baltimore Orioles’ season hasn’t gone the way they envisioned when they entered spring training with aspirations of winning the American League East. There are plenty of reasons why Baltimore has fallen short of expectations so far this season. Almost immediately, the Orioles lost both veteran starter Zach Eflin and All-Star third baseman Jordan Westburg […] The post Blaze Alexander’s Rise Gives the Orioles a Happy Storyline appeared first on Just Baseball .
Baltimore ties a season-low falling 8 games under the .500 mark
Happy Tuesday, Camden Chatters! Did you watch the game last night? It was not great. There were a few good things, like Shane Baz’s seven-inning, two-run start. Colton Cowser played good defense in center field and walked twice. Birthday boy Gunnar Henderson had two hits and a walk. Other than that, it was another bad […]
BALTIMORE–What happened? The Orioles began a stretch of 15 games heading into the All-Star break last Friday. With 12 games at home, they thought they could make up ground in the American League wild-card race. Instead, they’ve lost three of four, and have fallen to eight games below .500, equaling their season low with an […]
The Philadelphia Phillies are surging, sitting just three games behind the division-leading Atlanta Braves after Don Mattingly's promotion to manager appeared to unlock a higher gear following Rob Thomson's departure. They are also a team that knows exactly what happens when you ignore rotation depth at the deadline. FanSided's Christopher Kline floated a trade proposal connecting the Phillies to Baltimore Orioles left-hander Trevor Rogers as a buy-low option to bolster their depth ahead of ...
Pardon the headline, but I watched Paul Simon’s “Seven Psalms” concert on one of the streaming apps on Sunday and that song kept playing in my head during the late innings of Monday night’s game at Oriole Park. The Orioles slipped to eight games under .500 when another tight game unraveled and the surprising Chicago […]
The Orioles’ recent funk continued on Monday night as they dropped their series opener with the visiting White Sox 8-2. The Birds have now lost three in a row and five of their last six. This game was close as could be through the first seven innings. Shane Baz was wild but effective, allowing just […]
The White Sox (44-39) kicked off the road trip by stomping the Orioles, 8-2, busting a tie wide open with six runs in the final two frames. The bats got the glory late, but this was a pitchers’ duel with Sean Burke and Shane Baz trading blows. Chicago had Baz sweating early in the first […]
If baseball games were like pickle jars, Miguel Vargas could argue that he loosened it. As just before Colson Montgomery stayed on lefty Grant Wolfram's slider for a two-out go-ahead RBI double to center that put the Sox up for good, Vargas put the Orioles reliever through an 11-pitch war that ended with a routine fly out to right, but still might have strained the victor. But still another narrative thread to the triumphant six-run outburst in the final two innings is that despite the White...
BALTIMORE—The Orioles placed left-handed pitcher Keegan Akin on the 15-day injured list with left elbow discomfort. The move is retroactive to Sunday. Akin is 0-1 with a 5.68 ERA in 24 games. He started two as an opener. Akin missed the first month of the season with a strained left groin muscle. The Orioles recalled […]
The Sox begin the series tied for first in AL Central
It's not quite Gavin Sheets returning to the park where his father played, but Sean Burke is sort of returning to his old stomping grounds as a University of Maryland product. His last two outings have been stellar: 13.2 IP, 11 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 14 K, 2 HR. The post First pitch: White Sox at Orioles appeared first on Sox Machine .
Once again the Orioles are at risk of spiraling completely out of contention. Next up on the schedule is a three-game set with a surprisingly solid White Sox squad. Fortunately for the Orioles, these games are at Camden Yards. The Orioles actually having a winning record (23-21) at home, while the White Sox have been […]

The Baltimore Orioles have been one of the worst teams in the American League this season, entering the end of […]
There are multiple situations or events in which you hear the phrase “don’t judge a book by its cover,” and the offseason trade that sent former top prospect Grayson Rodriguez to the Los Angeles Angels for outfielder Taylor Ward further proves that point. I do not believe it is far-fetched to say that we all […] The post The Baltimore Orioles Made the Right Call on Grayson Rodriguez appeared first on Just Baseball .
Before the season began, if I told you that the Orioles’ last series in June would be against the Chicago White Sox, and that one of those teams would be in first place, which team would you guess it would be? Probably not the White Sox! And if I asked you again after the Orioles […]
We didn’t know it at the time, but when the calendar turned to July two years ago, that was the end of the good run for the Orioles. They had a losing record that month, the next, and in all finished the second half of the 2024 season with a .500 record, followed by a […]
