MILWAUKEE – It’s been quite the 72 hours in Birdland. Tony Mansolino found out that he would be the Orioles' interim manager on Saturday morning. Without much time to settle and adjust, Baltimore had two afternoon games against the visiting Nationals.  “Being totally honest, just an absolute ton of anxiety Saturday and Sunday,” Mansolino said today

The Orioles have put pitcher Chayce McDermott on their taxi squad tonight in Milwaukee, which likely makes him Tuesday night’s starter against the Brewers. The spot is listed as TBA. McDermott was the 27th man in Game 2 of Wednesday’s doubleheader against the Twins and allowed four runs in three innings before the Orioles returned him to Triple-A N

As much as CJ Abrams’ leadoff homer on the first pitch of Sunday’s game in Baltimore set the tone for the Nationals, his dazzling defensive gem to set in motion a 6-4-3 double play that ended the 10-4 victory might actually have been more spectacular. Abrams ranged far to his left to snag Ryan Mountcastle’s grounder up the middle, then flipped the

The emotions running through Tony Mansolino are best described as mixed. He’s a first-time major league manager but on an interim basis. He’s living the baseball dream but at the expense of friend Brandon Hyde. And he can’t say with any certainty why he’s sitting in that chair inside that office. “That’s probably a better question for him. I’m not

BALTIMORE – The Nationals arrived here late Thursday night following a frustrating series in Atlanta following a frustrating homestand against the Guardians and Cardinals. A season that felt promising not long ago now felt like it was one more bad series from slipping away. And then something clicked when they walked into Camden Yards on Friday. Ma

Tony Mansolino stood on the top step of the Orioles’ dugout this afternoon with his arms folded. He extended them while leaning against the railing with his fingers locked. He pulled out a card from his back pocket. He did all of it within about a minute in the top of the second inning, while another game got away from the team he now manages. Like

The Orioles made a significant change in pitchers today, designating veteran Kyle Gibson for assignment and recalling Kade Strowd from Triple-A Norfolk. The door remains open for Gibson to stay in the organization, but he’s removed from the active roster after compiling a 16.78 ERA and 2.919 WHIP in four starts. He allowed 23 runs and 29 hits in 12

BALTIMORE – He’s not in today’s lineup, but Jacob Young appears to be fine after a scary collision with the center field wall Saturday afternoon that left him on the ground in pain for several minutes. Young found out after the game X-rays on his left shoulder were negative, and the Nationals outfielder also passed concussion tests. He’s sore, but

Outfielder Tyler O’Neill is back on the injured list, this time with a left shoulder impingement. The Orioles recalled outfielder Dylan Carlson to replace O’Neill, who was out previously with inflammation in his neck. O’Neill is batting .188/.280/.325 with three doubles, a triple and two home runs in 24 games. He hasn’t played since Thursday and wa

BALTIMORE – For the first time since 2018, the Nationals have won the Battle of the Beltways. Now they have a chance to sweep their first series at Camden Yards since that same 2018 season if they can pull off another victory in this afternoon’s finale. The Nats finally scored early and often against an opposing starter Saturday, knocking Kyle Gibs
