Latest news and updates about the Orioles
That’s a pretty good start to the weekend! The Orioles picked up their second straight win tonight, a 3-0 victory to kick off their weekend road trip. Trevor Rogers and Brady Singer were the starting pitchers today, and while neither pitcher was on the top of his game, Rogers came out on the better end. […]
It is Friday night. The Orioles have defeated the Reds, 3-0, to start their road trip off on a good note. Samuel Basallo hit a two-run homer. Gunnar Henderson played dazzling defense. And Tyler Wells earned his first save since 2023. Trevor Rogers struggled with walks but pitched five shutout innings to earn the win. […]
After a day off, the Orioles are back in action. This time they’re on the road in Cincinnati, against the last place Reds. They have a 40-46 record, the same number of wins as the Orioles. The Orioles are a game behind, though, with two extra losses. If you missed the news, there were some […]
The Orioles have re-signed catcher Sam Huff to a minor league deal, per Andy Kostka of The Baltimore Banner. He should join Triple-A Norfolk in the coming days, perhaps as soon as tonight’s contest. Huff, 28, was on Baltimore’s big league roster as of a few days ago. He was designated for assignment, cleared waivers […]

The Orioles announced today that they have recalled infielder/outfielder Jeremiah Jackson and right-hander Anthony Nunez. In corresponding moves, catcher Chadwick Tromp has been designated for assignment and righty Ryan Helsley has been placed on the 15-day injured list with right elbow discomfort, retroactive to June 30th. Helsley was warming up to enter Wednesday’s game, per […]
The Orioles placed their closer, right-hander Ryan Helsley, on the 15-day injured list with right elbow discomfort. The move is retroactive to June 30th. Manager Craig Albernaz intended to use Helsley in the ninth inning of Wednesday’s game against the Chicago White Sox, but he reported that he felt discomfort when he was warming up. […]
The Cincinnati Reds welcome the Baltimore Orioles to Great American Ball Park on Friday for a quick three-game set. The 7:10 PM ET series opener will feature southpaw Trevor Rogers on the bump for the O’s, while the Reds will roll out veteran righty Brady Singer. It’s a matchup that’s somewhat emblematic of the two […]
The Orioles are rapidly approaching the point where they need to go on a stretch of solid baseball to re-establish themselves as real contenders for the wild card. Between now and the All-Star break is the time where they are going to need to do it. Inching along at 5-4 might drag it out for […]
The Orioles have had a lot of things go wrong in 2026, but let’s just pause to appreciate the fact that, for one sweltering July afternoon at Camden Yards, something finally went right. Dean Kremer, back after a nine-week absence with a right quad strain, threw six innings of one-run ball to snap his team’s […]
Triple-A: Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (Yankees) 7, Norfolk Tides 3 Cade Povich allowed a pair of early homers but settled down to pitch into the fifth inning. The lefty allowed seven hits, walked one and struck out five. Povich tossed a clean third, danced around a two-out double in the fourth, and exited after allowing a walk […]
The LHP leads the way with his swing-and-miss heater
Good morning, Camden Chatters. If you’re one of the many fans who have found the Orioles exhausting to watch for most of the season, at least we’re getting ample breaks from the team this month. The O’s weekend series with the Reds is bookended with off days yesterday and Monday — because traveling to Cincinnati […]
The Orioles begin a series with the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night with a record of 40-48. According to BaseballReference.com, the Orioles have a 9.3 percent chance of qualifying for the postseason. FanGraphs calculates their postseason odds at 17.6 percent. Most teams with records like the Orioles have don’t make the postseason, but in the […]
Question: Based on Colton Cowser’s recent defensive play in center, I think he should be playing every day just as Gunnar Henderson is playing every day, and he has a lower slash line than Cowser. What do you think? From: Frank Answer: Frank, I think Cowser’s defense has improved markedly, and his defensive metrics have […]
With the season tipping over the halfway point and July growing closer, the best trade deadline of the Big Four sports is nearly upon us. As big names like Tarik Skubal, Byron Buxton, and Yordan Alvarez swirl around trade talks (again), the next few weeks will be filled with addicting rumors, speculation, and reports. For […] The post How Should the Orioles Approach the Trade Deadline? appeared first on Just Baseball .
Before the White Sox coming to town, Baltimore president of baseball operations Mike Elias said the Orioles would be buyers if the trade deadline were one week away, rather than one month away. “I know our record is backwards, but apparently, this is infecting a whole bunch of other teams, too. I can’t explain it,”… The post Building out a White Sox starting pitcher trade market appeared first on Sox Machine .
O's have 3 top 100 selections in the upcoming MLB Draft
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 9, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (Yankees) 5 This was a strong showing from the Tides lineup. Nine of the 10 hitters that appeared in the game had at least one hit. Heston Kjerstad and Christian Encarnacion-Strand both homered and drove in two runs. Enrique Bradfield Jr. had a pair of hits, a stolen base, […]
Hello, friends. Here’s my hot take: It’s more fun when the Orioles win than when they lose. Yesterday, as they stopped themselves from getting swept by the White Sox with a 6-1 victory, we saw a glimpse of what this team could be if enough of its pieces regularly came together. Dean Kremer returned from […]
The Orioles needed to win on Wednesday, which was not exactly breaking news at this point in a so-far disappointing season, but maybe the unlikely way they did will resonate through the second-half schedule. It was Canada Day, the great white north version of our July 4th, and their resident Canadian outfielder celebrated it with […]
Question: What happened to the superstar 8.8 WAR Gunnar Henderson. Are we ever going to get superstar level quality from him again? From: @ifollowonlyos.bsky.social Answer: In 2023, when Henderson had an 8.8 WAR (Wins Above Replacement), he hit .281 with an .893 OPS, 37 home runs and 92 RBIs, he also had a 1.9 Defensive […]
PHILADELPHIA — An impressive Zack Wheeler streak came to an end on Wednesday night. The Phillies right-hander did not complete five innings in a start for the first time since June 16, 2024. It was Father’s Day 2024, and Wheeler allowed four home runs against a pesky Baltimore Orioles lineup at Camden Yards. Then manager […]
In an historic move, the Orioles traded reliever Kyle Nicolas to the Nationals for minor league infielder Randal Diaz. Washington optioned Nicolas to Triple-A Rochester and opened a 40-man roster spot by moving Mitchell Parker (who is expected to undergo Tommy John surgery) to the 60-day injured list. It’s the first trade between the two teams since the […]
The South Siders couldn’t quite handle the Baltimore heat this afternoon. Their pitching melted down, and the bats were stagnant, as they mustered only four hits off O’s starter Dean Kremer. With the game-time temperature hitting 100°, Sam Antonacci wasted no time turning up the thermostat himself, starting things off with a bang and sending […]
