Latest news and updates about the Orioles
Few players on this Orioles team have actually exceeded expectations so far this year, but Rico Garcia is a clear exception. The 32-year-old isn’t just a standout amongst his underwhelming teammates, he is pitching like one of the best relievers in baseball. The top line stats speak for themselves. Garcia’s ERA is a minuscule 0.45, […]
Happy Monday, Camden Chatters! I hope you had a nice weekend. Things started off poorly for the Orioles with two losses to the Nationals, including an embarrassing 13-3 rout on Saturday. But they finished the series with a solid 7-3 victory to salvage one game. The offense yesterday was powered by home runs from guys […]
What an awful road trip. The Yankees got swept in Milwaukee, lost two of three to an underwhelming-as-hell Orioles team, and then did the same against the Mets, who entered as one of the worst teams in baseball. The 2-7 trip ended when David Bednar couldn’t hold a three-run lead in the ninth, evaporating the […]
The Cubs claimed right-hander Christian Roa off of waivers from the Orioles and assigned him to Triple-A Iowa. The Cubs are Roa’s fourth team this year already. Iowa blew a two-run lead in the ninth. Knoxville rallied after trailing by two in the ninth. Iowa Cubs The Iowa Cubs lost their seventh-straight game, 4-3 to […]
After today’s loss to the Orioles, I could focus on the negatives, but I do not think that is the story of this weekend. Even though the Nats could not pull off the sweep, it was still a very successful weekend in the nation’s capital. The Nats did something they have not done in a […]
The Orioles have played from behind far too often this season. Today they decided to try something different. Baltimore scored in each of the first four innings, and the bullpen stepped up after a short outing from Brandon Young. Gunnar Henderson, Coby Mayo and Colton Cowser all went yard, and the Orioles avoided a sweep […]
After a deeply gratifying win to get to .500 yesterday, the Nats have a chance to sweep the O’s. Getting to .500 is cool, but getting over that hump would be even better. They will have a chance to do just that in front of what should be another stellar crowd at Nationals Park. The […]
Taylor Ward will bat first and serve as the designated hitter today as the Orioles look to avoid a sweep in DC. Ward will be followed by shortstop Gunnar Henderson and first baseman Pete Alonso. Samuel Basallo will do the catching with Adley Rutschman starting the game on the bench. Tyler O’Neill, Colton Cowser, and […]
The Nats have finally done it! After 15 failed attempts, the Nationals finally got over the hump, beating the Orioles 13-3 to reach .500. It is May 17th, and the Washington Nationals enter play with a 23-23 record. Seeing the instant impact this new regime has made has truly been a joy to watch as […]
Hello, friends. If the Orioles had been determined to do everything in their power to squander any good feelings or positive momentum from managing to win two out of three against the Yankees, the last two games against the Nationals would hardly have played out any differently. What was a close game yesterday got out […]
After coming inches away from tying the game in the top of the 7th, a seven-run bullpen blowup in the bottom of the inning sunk the Orioles, leading to a 13-3 loss to the Nationals in DC. The Orioles offense finally came alive in the 7th after a lackluster first six inning for the Baltimore […]
Where to watch: MASN/MASN+ or FS1 (National) Probable pitchers: RHP Chris Bassitt (3-2, 5.21 ERA, 26 K) vs. RHP Cade Cavalli (1-2, 4.02 ERA, 44 K) After an incredibly unlucky night for the offense on Friday, the Orioles look to even this season’s first Battle of the Beltways series tonight in DC. Most of Birdland […]
Good morning Birdland, Leave it to the 2026 Orioles to make a pitcher with an ERA near seven look like an all-star. Look, Zack Littell has been in the majors for nearly a decade and has put together multiple solid seasons. He’s not a random Triple-A arm making a spot start. But 2026 has been […]
If there is one thing this Orioles team has been good at this year, it’s failing to maintain any momentum. They are coming off a feel-good series win against the Yankees and could have kept the good vibes going with a solid game tonight against a pitcher who has had no success this year. But […]
Coming off a 14-run loss is never how you want a series to end, but the Nationals should be content with taking the result of their Thursday night contest against the Cincinnati Reds after winning the first two games. A Luis Garcia Jr. and Daylen Lile takeover saw them glide to a 10-4 victory in […]
The Orioles have still not yet gotten one of the key parts of their Plan A on the infield in the 2026 season. Now, we know that they never will. The Baltimore Banner’s Andy Kostka reported on Friday afternoon that Westburg has decided to undergo surgery to repair the partially-torn ulnar collateral ligament in his […]
A matchup that was once known as the MASN Cup takes on a new identity this summer. The Nationals are now one of the many teams that works directly with MLB to broadcast their games locally. Meanwhile, the Orioles are back out on their own channel for the first since 2004, when they were still […]
Back on Wednesday, with evening showers threatening to spoil the Orioles’ series finale against the Yankees, the mounting clouds parted, and out from the mound shone a sliver of light: Kyle Bradish and his six scoreless innings. I jest, but Bradish had started this season with an ERA above five in his first seven starts, […]
Good morning, Camden Chatters. Today is the start of MLB’s “Rivalry Weekend,” which pits most teams across the league against their closest regional foes. You’ve got the Yankees versus the Mets in the Battle of New York. You’ve got the Rangers versus the Astros in Texas’s Battle of the Boot. You’ve got the, uh, Mariners […]
Introduction On February 5th, 2026 Arizona Diamondbacks GM Mike Hazen sent fan favorite infielder Blaze Alexander to the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for relief pitcher Kade Strowd, along with two minor league prospects, RHP Wellington Aracena and infielder Jose Mejia. It definitely hasn’t been long enough to evaluate this trade fairly, and won’t be for […]
We’re going to try something a little different this time around on Sequence of the Week. Normally, we select a single at-bat or plate appearance from a given game to highlight the sequencing and execution from a Yankees pitcher. However, there were two encounters from the Yankees’ most recent win against the Orioles on Tuesday […]
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 9, Charlotte Knights (White Sox) 8 Jackson Holliday’s rehab continued with a 1-for-3 performance that included a walk. He played second base for seven innings. Most of the offensive damage came on home runs. Reed Trimble and Sam Huff both went deep, while Ryan Noda left the park twice, including the game […]
Hello, friends. You know what? Things are a lot more fun when the Orioles beat the Yankees than when they lose to them. I know, I know, I’m making a radical statement there. It is the truth. Yesterday’s 7-0 win, in which the O’s managed to one-hit a suddenly-staggered New York team, sealed a series […]
Wow. So it turns out that, on any given day, even the Orioles are capable of looking like a behemoth. Despite the fact that inclement weather forced a time change for Wednesday’s series finale, and that they were facing a team that had demolished them 39-9 in a series sweep last week, the Birds were […]
Things stink right now. The Yankee offense has been present for one game out of the last six, and we’re in the dark about the Max Fried’s potential elbow injury. On top of all that, New York lost a game that it felt like they were never involved in in the first place, managing a […]
