MIAMI – The first game of the Orioles' road series against the Miami Marlins could have started better. A whole lot better.  As the last of the third inning ended tonight, the Orioles found themselves down three runs and two injured players. The Marlins, who entered with a National League-worst 35-65 record, scored four runs in the second to lead t

MIAMI – After opening their post-All-Star break schedule with a series win in Texas, the Orioles road trip has moved back to the East Coast. They open a three-game series tonight in Miami at loadDepot park.  The Orioles (60-39) lead the American League East by 1 1/2 games over the Yankees (60-42) while the Red Sox (53-46)&n

MIAMI – The signs seem to be pointing toward right-hander Chayce McDermott making his major league debut on Wednesday night and getting a start for the Orioles against Miami. But it’s not official yet. McDermott was added to the taxi squad today and could be activated to start tomorrow. “Not yet,” manager Brandon Hyde said pregame when asked about

The Nationals used the days before and after the All-Star break to carry an extra reliever. Turns out they only used him once before sending him back to the minors. Eduardo Salazar, who impressed in his July 14 outing against the Brewers, was optioned to Triple-A Rochester this afternoon, a move necessitated by the return of DJ Herz, who starts ton

MIAMI – The Orioles (60-39) play Game No. 100 tonight and begin a three-game series at loanDepot park versus the Marlins (35-65), who have the worst record in the National League. The O's will face right-hander Kyle Tyler (0-1, 3.38 ERA) with Gunnar Henderson leading off, Ryan O'Hearn batting fourth as the designated hitter and Jorge Mateo hitting

The Nationals couldn’t have asked for a better start to their second half, sweeping the Reds over the weekend in impressive fashion. Now they’ll have to try to keep it going against a team that recently swept them. The Padres are in town, and it was only four weeks ago when they won three straight against the Nationals during a wild series in San D

The Washington Nationals recalled left-handed pitcher DJ Herz from Triple-A Rochester and optioned right-handed pitcher Eduardo Salazar to Triple-A Rochester on Tuesday. Nationals President of Baseball Operations and General Manager Mike Rizzo made the announcement. Herz will start tonight against the San Diego Padres. Herz, 23, returns to Washingt

It was a question that came up during the recent MLB Draft. Why do the O’s draft some college pitchers with modest stats? What do they see here? Said O’s vice president of player development and domestic scouting Matt Blood: “It’s usually a combination of raw stuff, physical capacity, the athleticism, the way they move and then performance. It’s so

For three months, as he produced decent – but hardly spectacular – numbers in Rochester, Juan Yepez had little reason to believe he was a simple phone call away from Washington. He was, like so many others with big league experience, stuck at Triple-A, trying to make the best of a frustrating situation. “For sure, I felt like the call felt far,” he

The 2025 schedule is much kinder to the Orioles, in case you hadn’t perused it. Four days off in April, four in May, three in June, three in July along with the All-Star break, three in August and four in September. They began the second half by winning two of three games in Texas and were off yesterday. Seems early after the break, but they won’t
