SARASOTA, Fla. - Before the Orioles assigned Wade LeBlanc a uniform number, he already had done his research on another set of digits. LeBlanc turned 35 years old in August. Chris Davis celebrates his 34th birthday next month. There's no debating which player is the senior member of a rebuilding club. "I'm definitely the oldest," LeBlanc said this morning, clearing up any confusion. "I've got him beat. He's got more time, but I've got him beat in age." The next competition is going to...

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Sometime around 9:30 a.m. today, every pitcher and catcher in Nationals camp will emerge from the clubhouse and gather on the adjacent agility field outside for the first of 37 planned "Circle of Trust" morning meetings.

Happy Hanser Alberto is back with the Orioles in 2020 trying to duplicate his special 2019 season for the club. He's always smiling, always happy and seems always thrilled to be an Oriole. And why not? How does a player claimed on waivers four times between the 2018 and 2019 seasons - twice by the Orioles - wind up batting .305? That ranked as the eighth-best batting average in the American League and 16th-best in the majors. He ended 2018 with his original team, the Texas Rangers, who had...

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - The Nationals have invited 22 non-roster players to participate in big league camp, a group that includes a host of veterans with major league experience and a handful of prospects who aren't yet on the organization's 40-man roster. Among the veterans who signed minor league contracts and were extended big league invitations are: * Javy Guerra, who made 40 relief appearances for the Nationals last season with a 4.86 ERA and 1.248 WHIP and then pitched in a pair of...
