"And when the bone heals, we'll have him start baseball activities and then get him back as soon as we...

General manager Mike Rizzo went over the injury report prior to Wednesday's series finale against the Phillies but also touched on the problems the bullpen is having keeping opponents off the board late in games. In the Mets series, the Nationals bullpen allowed eight runs on 11 hits in the eighth inning alone. It has been only four games, but individual numbers have been somewhat brutal. Matt Grace's ERA is 20.25 in three games. Jeremy Hellickson allowed three hits last night, including...

TORONTO - Anyone getting tired of watching the Orioles win yet? Yep, just kidding. But the 2019 Orioles have won their last four by six combined runs. Every game has gone down to the last pitch.
