The new hires and reassignments in the Orioles' minor league system that were made public yesterday in a press release included a batch of names from outside professional baseball. As expected and, in some cases, already reported.
Tim Gibbons, the hitting coach at Double-A Bowie, worked as director of hitting at Elite Sports Training. Ryan Fuller, the hitting coach at Single-A Delmarva, comes from Power in Training.
These aren't affiliates.
There are recent interns, trainees and apprentices....
The Orioles are down to two vacancies on their major league coaching staff.
A deal was finalized today to make Anthony Sanders the first base coach, according to a source. The Orioles haven't announced it.
The sides drew close to an agreement late last week, and the final details have been completed.
Sanders, 45, replaces Arnie Beyeler, who was told last month that he wouldn't be retained after one season. Sanders also can assume Beyeler's duties as outfield instructor based on his...
Orioles infielder Chris Davis was recognized during the annual Musial Awards on Saturday, November 23, at the historic Stifel Theatre in St. Louis. The award honors individuals who have best embodied class, character, and sportsmanship throughout the year.
Davis attended the ceremony to present the Musial Award to diehard Red Sox fan Henry Frasca during "the most inspiring night in sports." Frasca, 10, heard about Davis' struggles at the plate during the start of the season and decided to...

Happy Thanksgiving, NatsTown!
Today is a day for giving thanks, and at the top of most Nationals fans' lists is the fact that a certain team sporting a curly W and blue uniform tops delivered a World Series championship to D.C. last month. Never gets tired hearing that, does it? I suspect it won't for a long time to come.
Whatever's on your Thanksgiving table, you're sure to indulge today. Turkey coma, anyone? My table has traditionally included a roasted bird, stuffing, mashed potatoes,...
When we mentioned free agent pitchers Marco Estrada and Trevor Cahill here on Saturday, there was not much sentiment among the readers for the Orioles to pursue either one.
Both have a track record of some success, but struggled in 2019. Free agent lefty Brett Anderson however, is a pitcher with a track record of some success. But while he struggled in the 2017-2018 seasons, going 8-9 with a 5.24 ERA and a 1.452 WHIP, he pitched much better last season.
Any team can sign him now, but he did not...
A whole lot of folks at some point today are going to be compelled to loosen their belts. You know the feeling.
You just might get that same feeling, metaphorically speaking, after consuming the next helping of "Orioles Classics." You'll positively stuff yourself with memorable moments in O's history. Among other treats, you'll savor the record-breaking run of the Iron Man, the maiden voyage of the prototype for every ballpark built since 1992, and replays of each game of the 1970 World...
