Can we call one series away from Baltimore a road trip? If we can, the Orioles' next road trip begins tonight at Citi Field with the first of a three-game series against the Mets. That is followed by one series at home against the Astros before the next two-series trip begins a week from tomorrow at the Dodgers. The Orioles and Yankees are once aga
NEW YORK – Former major league reliever Andrew Miller visited the Orioles clubhouse this afternoon at Citi Field. He isn’t making a comeback. He was here on business with the players’ union. Miller’s career with the Orioles was brief, a mere 23 games in the regular season in 2014 and five more in the playoffs that resulted in 7 1/3 scoreless inning
NEW YORK – Austin Slater is leading off tonight at Citi Field and Eloy Jiménez is the designated hitter, as the Orioles go right-handed heavy with their lineup against the Mets. Colton Cowser is in center field, one of three left-handers to avoid the bench, and Anthony Santander is in right. Trevor Rogers is making his fourth start with the Orioles
When Tampa Bay Rays pitching coach Kyle Snyder reached out to Orioles pitching coach Drew French to talk about righty Zach Eflin it was a bit unusual. It happened not long after the July 26 deal that made Eflin an Oriole and sent three minor leaguers to the Rays. Snyder was showing great friendship and support for a pitcher he had a wonderful relat
The Nationals’ goal for the last six weeks of the season is clear: Stick with the youth movement and see what pieces they have for next season. The young regulars, of course, will continue to get a majority of the playing time. CJ Abrams, James Wood, Keibert Ruiz, Luis García Jr. and Jacob Young are important pieces moving forward. Newcomers Juan Y
The Orioles honored Corbin Burnes on Friday with his own bobblehead night. He appreciated the gesture and took one home. It just wasn’t anything new to him. Teams have come up with the idea to doll up Burnes pretty much at every level after Little League. “I’ve had a bunch of bobbleheads,” he said. “I had two or three in Milwaukee, I’ve had a coupl
PHILADELPHIA – The Nationals needed a win today. Entering this finale against the Phillies, they were losers of four straight and five of their last six. They were also in danger of suffering their eighth sweep of the season, fifth on the road. It took a total team effort to finally get that elusive win. But they got it as the Nationals escaped Cit
The first Red Sox batter to put a ball in play this afternoon lined it directly into Albert Suárez’s glove. It wasn’t a screamer at 64 mph. It was, however, a good indicator of what the Orioles were getting again from their rotation replacement. Suárez would keep denying Boston’s hitters and he’d do so in his usual quiet fashion. The Orioles’ offen
On this homestand against Washington and Boston that ends today, the Orioles won Wednesday and Thursday, allowing one run each game. But they have lost the other three games, allowing nine, 12 and five runs. From April 24, 2023 to June 20, 2024, the Orioles went 22 straight series against American League East teams without losing one. That was the
PHILADELPHIA – The Nationals need to get their offense going in Sunday’s finale against the Phillies. Over the first three games of this four-game series, they’ve been outscored 21-6 and outhit 37-21. As has been the case for most of this season, the offense goes as CJ Abrams goes. And right now, the young shortstop is struggling at the plate. “He'
