Orioles should not trade Gunnar Henderson | MAILBAG
Question: Any thoughts on what is plaguing Gunnar Henderson? Is he trying too hard and too intense? Is he on information overload? Can this be corrected with coaching? Does he need to take a break? Is he frustrated with the team’s losing record this year? Is it time to trade him while he has value […]
Manny Machado: ‘I’ll always be an Oriole at heart’
Manny Machado is both one of the greatest and most polarizing players in Orioles history.

Peter Schmuck: On the West Coast, ‘resilience’ may not be enough for Orioles
As if you didn’t notice, the Orioles just took three steps forward and two steps back. They’ve been doing that kind of thing for a while now. So what do you think is going to happen while the Orioles spend the next nine days on the West Coast, facing the Mariners, Dodgers and Angels? Will […]
How will Orioles decide whether they’ll be buyers or sellers at trade deadline? | MAILBAG
Question: Do you think there is a buy/sell games-back number from the final wild-card spot for this season’s trade deadline (like 8 games back or more sell, otherwise buy)? Or is Mike Elias likely to be a buyer no matter what due to the perception the Orioles need to make the playoffs this season or […]
