Orioles put Blewett on active roster and option Selby (plus other notes)

Takes of all temperatures are flown about a variety of Orioles spaces.  But one take should be freezing cold: this team sure knows how to draft.  The minor league season is underway, and there are plenty of outstanding performances to highlight. The Orioles are in the midst of a long homestand, so let’s take some time to take a look down on the far
PITTSBURGH – There have been times in club history when the Nationals bullpen garnered too much attention for the wrong reasons. Think of the first half of the 2017 season, when Dusty Baker went through three different closers before Mike Rizzo finally acquired Sean Doolittle at the trade deadline. Think of the first half of the 2019 season, when D
The Orioles are in the midst of their longest homestand of the season with the Guardians, the second of three opponents, visiting Camden Yards tonight for a three-game series. Cleveland is 8-7 but only 3-6 on the road. The latest off-day arrived with the Orioles still in search of their first series and back-to-back wins. They’re batting .235/.302/
PITTSBURGH – They weren’t going to come right out and say it, but the Nationals understood the monumental task staring them in the face this evening. His name is Paul Skenes, and he’s the most intimidating pitcher on the planet right now. The Nats had managed to avoid the hulking Pirates right-hander during his ballyhooed rookie season. They finall
PITTSBURGH – Nasim Nuñez spent the entire 2024 season in the big leagues. Walking into the Nationals clubhouse this weekend shouldn’t have been a big deal for the 24-year-old infielder. It is different this time around, though. Nuñez may have been a big leaguer all last season, but he was the 26th player on a 26-man roster, a Rule 5 Draft pick task
PITTSBURGH – A road trip that looked much more manageable on paper than the recently completed homestand did has not proven to be all that manageable so far. The Nationals lost two of three in Miami over the weekend, and now they open a four-game series in Pittsburgh with a matchup against the best young pitcher in the sport. Yes, Paul Skenes is on
The Orioles apparently are making an adjustment to their pitching staff. Scott Blewett was claimed on waivers today from the Twins and is expected to report to the club this week, perhaps by Tuesday night’s series opener against the Guardians at Camden Yards. Left-hander Luis González, a surprise addition to the 40-man roster in November, was desig
The Orioles have made the following roster moves: Claimed RHP Scott Blewett off waivers from the Minnesota Twins. He has not yet reported.Designated LHP Luis González for assignment. The Orioles’ 40-man roster currently has 40 players.
MIAMI – It’s become a tradition unlike any other when the Nationals visit Miami. It’s for an unfortunate reason, but it’s still a welcomed sight nonetheless. For the third year in a row, while recovering from his March 2023 Tommy John surgery, Cade Cavalli made the trek down from West Palm Beach to meet the Nats at loanDepot park. In the past, Cava
