Orioles minor league weekly recap: Keys prospects continue to excite

The Orioles are currently putting together the kind of season that will leave everyone looking to the farm for something to get excited about for the future. This was not supposed to be happening in 2026. A lot of things were not supposed to be happening in 2026. Here we are anyway. To be determined […]

Orioles news: The Orioles stink again. Now what?

Good morning, Camden Chatters. The 2026 Orioles season is, technically, not over. But you’d be forgiven for feeling like it is. After watching the disgrace that was the Orioles’ four-game series at Yankee Stadium, in which the Birds were swept and outscored by 29 runs without ever holding a lead themselves, it’s fair to wonder […]

Utter humiliation: Orioles lose 12-1, get swept out of Yankee Stadium

They say it’s very hard to sweep a four-game series in baseball. But they must not have watched the 2026 Orioles. In an inevitable result, the Yanks completed the sweep of the Orioles with a 12-1 win in the finale. Aaron Judge’s first-inning homer dug the O’s a hole from which they never escaped, with […]

Monday night Orioles game thread: @ Yankees, 7:05

The Orioles will try to win tonight to avoid a four-game sweep and a five-game losing streak. After watching the last four games, it’s hard to get a lot of enthusiasm up for this one, I’ll be honest. I’ve been feeling pretty low about this team of ours. But I also know that if they […]

Podcast: On the assumptions that built this Orioles roster

This time a week ago, it felt like the Orioles were treading water and that as long as they could continue doing that, they might avoid a disastrous outcome to the season. It’s harder now to feel like the Orioles are staying afloat after what we’ve watched over the first three games of this series […]

The Orioles reached an inflection point this weekend

For the first month of the season, it seemed like the Orioles were comfortable treading water. But now, in the midst of a four-game losing streak, including three at the hands of the rival Yankees, it feels more like the team is drowning. A club with a rookie manager and an influx of veteran talent […]

Orioles news: A terrible weekend in New York

Happy Monday, Camden Chatters! It was a pretty lousy weekend for baseball as the Orioles got beaten up pretty good in New York. Yesterday’s game was the latest in a string of ugly losses. Trey Gibson made his Major League debut and held his own, but the rest of the game was a bust. The […]

Orioles blow Gibson’s debut, lose to Yankees 11-3

There was a large chunk of today’s game when the Orioles were in it. They came back from a deficit to tie the game at 3-3, they made some noise against lefty ace Max Fried, and Trey Gibson did not implode as so many starting pitchers have for the Orioles lately. When they fell behind […]

Sunday afternoon game thread: At Yankees, 1:35

It is an understatement to say that things have not gone well for the Orioles in New York this weekend. They have been outplayed at every turn over the last two games and it’s hard to imagine things turning around today. Top Orioles pitching prospect Trey Gibson is in New York to make his Major […]

Orioles news: Trey Gibson’s MLB debut coming today

Hello, friends. As is often referenced in GIF form, “Oh no, we suck again!” Two days of playing the Yankees has made it feel as if the list of Orioles problems is proving insurmountable, that nothing is going to go right this year, that the theory of the case that Mike Elias had for this […]

Bradish fails to play stopper, Yankees best Orioles 9-4

On paper, Kyle Bradish is Baltimore’s top starter with Trevor Rogers on the IL. Unfortunately, the righty failed to pitch like it today. Bradish couldn’t play stopper for the struggling Orioles, and the Yankees ran away with a decisive 9-4 win in the second of a four-games series. Bradish continued a disappointing string of starts […]

Saturday afternoon Orioles game thread: at Yankees, 1:35

The Orioles filled up the transaction board as they prepared for today’s game against the Yankees. Baltimore added fresh arms to the bullpen by activating Dietrich Enns and Nick Raquet. To make room, the O’s optioned Tyler Wells and designated Albert Suárez for assignment. Enns is back from the injured list after suffering a left-foot […]

Orioles minor league recap 5/2: Aloy, Figueroa homer for Frederick

Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 6, Nashville (Brewers) 5 The Tides had to go with something of a patchwork pitching staff for this game, as the scheduled starter, Trey Gibson, was moved around to set up potentially joining the MLB team tomorrow. Norfolk jumped to a 3-0 lead in the top of the first, helped in part […]

Orioles news: Helsley hits the IL, O’s lose to Yankees

Good morning Birdland, Sometimes it feels like the Orioles are in a free fall, and then you look at their 15-17 record and realize that things could be much worse. Yesterday was one of those days. Before their 7-2 loss to the Yankees on the Friday night, the Orioles got some bad injury news. Their […]

Orioles fall behind early, never recover in 7-2 loss to Yankees

Two early Yankees home runs dug the Orioles a hole they couldn’t fly out of, as the O’s dropped their series opener in the Bronx 7-2. As we’ve seen many times this season, a disastrous 2nd inning put the Orioles behind early and ruined the outing for Povich. With the game tied at 1-1, Povich […]

Orioles Friday night game thread: at Yankees, 7:05pm ET

Where to watch: MASN/MASN+ Probable pitchers: LHP Cade Povich (1-0. 2.19 ERA, 7 K) vs. RHP Will Warren (3-0, 2.59 ERA, 37 K) After hovering around .500 for much of the season’s first month, the Orioles travel to the Bronx looking to make a statement against the AL East leaders. Per Baltimore Sun beat reporter […]

Orioles-Yankees series preview: Facing the first-place team

If you haven’t been paying much attention to non-Orioles baseball so far this year, I regret to inform you that the 2026 New York Yankees are a good team. Their 20 wins are the most in the American League. They have scored 153 runs, second-most in the AL. They have allowed 106, which is the […]

Would the Orioles be good if they were healthy?

A few years ago, The Athletic ran a story asking whether the ’23 Orioles were lucky or good. The piece was an annoying attempt to gainsay the team’s 101-win season based on BABIP and expected ERA, things like that. Well, we certainly showed them. The ’23 Orioles got bounced from the playoffs immediately, and since […]

Orioles minor league recap 5/1: Bateman deals, Tides split doubleheader

Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 5, Nashville Sounds (Brewers) 2 —Game 1 F/7 The Orioles kept Sam Huff in the organization with a fresh minor league deal after he cleared waivers and elected free agency last week. The move ensured that Baltimore could turn to Huff if either Adley Rutschman or Samuel Basallo went down with an […]

Orioles news: A doubleheader split; Palmer eats wings

Good morning, Camden Chatters. If you were looking for a perfect six-hour encapsulation of the Orioles’ 2026 season so far, look no further than yesterday’s doubleheader against the Astros. The opener of the twin bill showcased how gloriously high the Birds’ potential can be when everything is clicking…and then the second game harshly reminded us […]

After Game 1 blowout, Orioles close doubleheader by getting blown out

You could hardly get a better representation of the 2026 Orioles season than the doubleheader that they played against the Astros on Thursday. In one game, they swung the bats well and got some pretty good pitching and they blew out the Astros. Check out Paul Folkemer’s recap of the first game. That one was […]

Bassitt hounds Astros, O’s hit two grand slams in big 10-3 win

It’s almost a shame the Orioles have another game of baseball to play today, because it’s going to be hard to top their game one performance. The O’s opened a doubleheader with an all-around fantastic win over the Astros, 10-3. Chris Bassitt posted his most impressive outing as an Oriole by a long shot, shutting […]

Thursday doubleheader Orioles game thread: vs. Astros, 12:35

Are you ready for 6+ hours of Orioles/Astros action? Well, too bad. You’re getting it anyway. Last night’s rainout has set up the Orioles’ first doubleheader of the season. They’ll play their regularly scheduled 12:35 game followed by the makeup game about half an hour after the first one finishes. Last season the Orioles played […]
