MILWAUKEE - Bryce Harper returned from his stomach bug to launch a three-run shot over the right field fence that got out of Miller Park in a hurry in the Nationals' 7-3 win over the Brewers on Wednesday. Manager Davey Martinez was impressed with the blast. "He's actually been pretty good," Martinez said. "He's working some good at-bats. To see him hit that ball, especially on a line, was awesome. Hopefully, he can continue swinging the bat like that. For him, it's just getting balls in...

BOWIE, Md. - After hitting two homers in the recent All-Star Futures Game and moving into the rankings among the top 50 prospects in baseball, young outfielder Yusniel Díaz was rewarded with a trade. Three days after he blasted a pair of homers for the World Team in the Futures Game, the 21-year-old Cuban-born Díaz was the headline player the Orioles acquired among five minor leaguers as Manny Machdado was sent to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Díaz said it felt strange to be traded but...

The time has come, and it's long overdue, to bury the narrative that the Orioles won't consummate trades with the Yankees. Dig the hole until you strike oil. The Orioles were willing to do it at the Winter Meetings despite reports to the contrary. Executive vice president Dan Duquette made the declaration in his suite at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Resort in a room full of media members. Everyone heard it. It was written and repeated over the airwaves. And it wasn't just lip...

Ten batters into tonight's start and it became apparent that relief would come to Dylan Bundy only via the weather or the bullpen. Bundy surrendered three home runs and fell behind by five runs before the latest storm hammered the Baltimore area. The game finally was postponed after a delay lasting 2 hours, 33 minutes, also washing away the statistics. The makeup date will be announced shortly. The teams have a mutual off-day on Aug. 13 after concluding their series at Camden Yards. Bundy has...

Less than two weeks after Brooks Robinson informed the media of his hiring by the Orioles as a special advisor, another Hall of Famer is back in the fold. Eddie Murray has been named special advisor to John and Lou Angelos, the organization again reaching into its past while also moving forward with its rebuilding effort. Standing on the track next to the home dugout at Camden Yards, Murray explained how the Orioles contacted him a few months ago to set the wheels in motion. He had breakfast...

The Orioles announced today that they recalled right-hander David Hess from Triple-A Norfolk and he's headed to the bullpen, filling the roster spot that belonged to closer Zach Britton. And Chris Tillman has been released, which allows him to become a free agent and attempt to latch on with another team. Left-hander Donnie Hart wasn't eligible to rejoin the Orioles because he hadn't been down for the minimum 10 days. Tides manager Ron Johnson told Hess late last night about his promotion....
