Austin Hays, Chris Davis and JosÃ© Iglesias are staying back in Sarasota. Dilson Herrera is playing first base and Pat Valaika is the shortstop. Ryan Mountcastle gets another start in left field.

Martinez ready to try Robles at leadoff, Turner batting third

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - The casual observer should be awfully careful reading too much into a team's lineup during the early days of spring training. With many veterans resting and those who do play often batting high in the order so they can get a couple of at-bats and get out of there, there isn't a whole lot worth interpreting. That said, don't be surprised at all if you see Trea Turner batting third sometime in the next week or so. It doesn't mean he's going to bat third for the...

Spring training storylines: Finding the right lineup combo

We've reached the final countdown to spring training, so we're counting down the most important storylines surrounding the Nationals this spring. We continue today with the lineup decisions Davey Martinez must make ... It's surprise quiz time, folks. Do you remember who batted leadoff for the Nationals on opening day last season? Who hit sixth? Who hit eighth? (No peeking allowed.) Do you know the answer? You'll be forgiven if you forgot that Adam Eaton was the Nats' first batter of 2019,...

Slowly but surely, the Nationals are getting their bullpen back. That is, the bullpen they acquired on July 31 but only had together for one game. Roenis ElÃas, who made just the one appearance before straining his hamstring, has been activated off the injured list and is available to pitch in tonight's series opener against the Marlins. And Hunter Strickland, who has been around for most of the last month, has returned from paternity leave. Needing to clear two roster spots, the Nationals...

Chris Davis returns to the Orioles lineup tonight after coming off the bench last night and going 0-for-2, his line drive into the shift providing the final out in a 3-2 loss. Past success against Aaron Sanchez might factor into the decision. He's 9-for-26 (.346) with two doubles, five home runs and 11 walks against Sanchez. Aaron Brooks continues to search for his first win with the Orioles. He's 0-2 with a 6.63 ERA and 1.579 WHIP in five starts over 19 innings. Brooks threw a season-high 97...

Orioles DFA RondÃ³n (with lineup)

August 03, 2019, 11:34am

Orioles

The Orioles made a series of roster moves this afternoon that leaves them with two bench players. JosÃ© RondÃ³n was designated for assignment and the club recalled reliever Branden Kline from Triple-A Norfolk. It has to be a temporary arrangement. RondÃ³n popped up as a pinch-hitter and has disappeared in less than a week. Also, the Orioles claimed left-hander Ty Blach off waivers from the Giants - these teams love doing business with each other - and optioned him to Norfolk. More on this...
