Latest news and updates about the Orioles
One way that the 2026 Orioles season continues to emulate the 2025 one is the way that injury news is a daily feature. Following Sunday’s 6-2 win over the Giants, O’s manager Craig Albernaz provided updates on three players who have recently had issues pop up: Ryan Mountcastle, Tyler O’Neill, and Adley Rutschman. O’Neill was […]
A stellar start by Cade Povich, supported by key contributions at the plate from the previously slumping Pete Alonso and Samuel Basallo, led the Orioles to a 6-2 win at Camden Yards on Sunday afternoon. They have now won five of six and are tied for first place in the AL East. This was the […]
It’s going to be a beautiful day in downtown Baltimore. Clear skies. A modest breeze. Highs near 70. That’s baseball weather, folks, and I can think of no better setting for the Orioles to take a series from the visiting Giants. It will be up to Cade Povich to make it happen. To the surprise […]
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 3, Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp (MIA) 2 It was a very good night for Levi Wells, who retired the first 13 batters he faced. The 14th batter reached on an error by the rehabbing second baseman, Jackson Holliday. The 15th batter doubled, putting runners on second and third with one out in the […]
Hello, friends. Can we possibly make it a day without there being any bad Orioles injury news? Yesterday was not the day, with the O’s losing Adley Rutschman to the injured list due to left ankle inflammation before the game even began and then having Ryan Mountcastle exit the game early after having an awkward […]
Tonight was a weird one. The MASN broadcast booth got its second consecutive day off with Baltimore playing on national television. The Orioles defense added insult to some unfortunate injuries, and Chris Bassitt looked better despite experiencing some more bad luck. A runner was called out for interference, Ryan Helsley pitched in a non-save situation, […]
The Orioles will attempt to get back to .500 tonight against Logan Webb and the Giants. San Francisco took the first of three games last night in a 6-3 result at Camden Yards. Chris Bassitt will look to bounce back after a rough start to his Orioles tenure. Baltimore inked Bassitt to a one-year, $18.5 […]
After a spirited victory in the series opener, the San Francisco Giants will look to win their series against the Baltimore Orioles today, in the second game of their nine-game road trip. The Giants are sending their ace to the mound, as right-hander Logan Webb will make his fourth start of the year. On the […]
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 4, Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp (Marlins) 2 Enrique Bradfield Jr. singlehandedly delivered the Tides a comeback win, driving in all four Norfolk runs — two in the seventh and two in the eighth — to fry the Jumbo Shrimp. For much of the game, the Norfolk lineup was absolutely dominated by Jacksonville starter […]
Good morning Birdland, The Orioles debut of their new City Connect jerseys on Friday night did not go great, ending in a 6-3 loss to the visiting San Francisco Giants. That scoreline is kind to the Orioles. They were down 6-1 heading into the bottom of the ninth and were only saved by a Gunnar […]
At some point this year, there was a brief moment — a very brief moment, but a moment nonetheless — where you wondered if the San Francisco Giants would win three games this season. And now they’ve won three straight. Things can change quickly, it turns out. The Giants beat the Baltimore Orioles 6-3 on […]
The Orioles and Phillies came into this game with good vibes. The Orioles had three consecutive wins against the White Sox, while the San Francisco Giants had scored 11 runs in two games vs the Phillies. Shane Baz and the Orioles were not up to the task, and by the end of the night, the […]
After a six-game road trip that saw the Orioles both sweep and get swept, they are back home to kick off a six-game homestand against two NL West teams. First up, it’s the fellow orange and black San Francisco Giants, who are off to 5-8 start and in last place in their division. There won’t […]
The Baltimore Orioles have been run by one of the Moneyball 2.0 acolytes since the Giants hired Farhan Zaidi in November 2018. Mike Elias was part of the Astros’ front office, and their innovation on the Billy Beane way of running a baseball team* was not only to cheat, but to infuse data and “inefficiencies” […]
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Orioles fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Only a few days ago, the Orioles were limping into a cold road series against the White Sox, looking […]
[Warning: Mixed metaphors incoming. Polar bears don’t like the heat. But human ballplayers do go hot and cold, respectively and metaphorically.] When the Orioles signed Pete Alonso last winter, they knew they what they were getting: the big, slow, mashing first baseman whose value resides entirely in the batter’s box. Not a fielder. Not a […]
Good morning, Camden Chatters. After a breather yesterday, the Orioles now face a stretch of 13 straight games before their next scheduled off day, starting a six-game homestand tonight before going on the road for seven. By the time the O’s next get a break, we’ll know a lot more about this team and what […]
The apparel company with the big swoosh logo has deemed that it’s time for a number of MLB teams to change up their City Connect jerseys so they can sell people a new round of jerseys. The Orioles are in this year’s wave for updated uniforms, so the black ones with the boring block lettering […]
Good morning, Camden Chatters. Turns out there are no problems with the Orioles that a series against the Chicago White Sox couldn’t fix. The O’s took full advantage of their matchup against the perennial worst team in the American League, completing a three-game sweep with yesterday afternoon’s 5-3 win. In typical Orioles fashion, the club […]
The news on Zach Eflin’s injury came back on Wednesday evening and it was as bad as you could have guessed from the get-go. The Orioles announced that Eflin had Tommy John surgery to repair the torn ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching elbow on Wednesday. The only surprising thing about the announcement is that […]
The base runners were there. The result? Same old story. White Sox lose 5-3 to the Orioles, swept again, because of course they are. Sean Burke did his best Houdini act, chewing through 23 pitches in a clean first. More traffic in the second — plunked a guy, walked another, but somehow left them both […]
Every baseball game has a story. That’s what makes the game so great. Here were some of the narratives working their way through my head as we entered today’s Orioles-White Sox contest: Will the Orioles get back to .500 and keep pace in the AL East? Will the offense find itself against a bad Chicago […]
The Chicago White Sox are once again looking to avoid yet another series loss. They’ll try to salvage the finale against the Baltimore Orioles this afternoon after dropping the first two games of the set. It’s not quite panic time because it’s far too early for that, but a win would at least allow fans […]
I traded my Easter ham for a hot dog last weekend to watch the Orioles take on the Pirates at PNC Park. On paper, it felt like dealing Erik Bedard for Adam Jones and a quartet of pitchers. It’s not like I was skipping Thanksgiving dinner, and it’s always a thrill to catch a game […]
Good morning Birdland, It’s amazing what a couple of wins can do for your team outlook. Coming into this White Sox series, it already felt like the Orioles’ season was on life support. Now, they have won two in a row, could wrap up a sweep today, get back to .500, and then head home […]
