Jacob Young is available off the bench for Saturday’s game after departing in the top of the fifth inning of Friday’s 9-3 victory over the Blue Jays. While batting leadoff and playing center field, Young was 1-for-2 with a leadoff double in the third, coming around to score the Nats’ first run of the night, but was replaced two innings later by Jes

CINCINNATI - A new season is beginning today for the Orioles' rookie-level Florida Complex League team. Listed below is the roster for this year’s O’s FCL squad. This roster features a heavy international flavor with 18 players from the Dominican Republic, 16 born in Venezuela and one from Cuba. The roster includes infielder Luis Almeyda who was si

May the Fourth be with you! The Nationals continue celebrating “Star Wars” Weekend today with their second game against the Blue Jays. The first 15,000 fans at today’s game will receive an X-Wing Pilot Kyle Finnegan bobblehead while entering the gates. Once again, the Nats have an opportunity to get over .500 for the first time since July 1, 2021,

CJ Abrams’ eyes lit up as he prepared to answer a question about his favorite play from Friday night’s game. “Favorite was the infield in, play at home,” he said with a wide smile. “For sure.” Hard to argue with his thinking on that one. With the Nationals trailing 3-1 in the top of the fourth, the Blue Jays’ Ernie Clement tripled to right-center.

CINCINNATI – One pitcher has been added and left-hander John Means is next. When the veteran O’s lefty starts tonight at Cincinnati’s Great American Ball Park, he will join right-hander Kyle Bradish as another recent addition to the Baltimore rotation. Grayson Rodriguez went to the injured list, Albert Suárez went to the bullpen and first Bradish a

The Orioles were forced to wait last night until the rain finally stopped to begin their three-game series in Cincinnati. The delay also gave the organization time to catch its breath after the barrage of news and updates that hit the media. To review: Gunnar Henderson and Colton Cowser are monthly award winners. I participated in the voting and wo

CINCINNATI – The great recent pitching run of O’s lefty Cole Irvin hit the road tonight at Cincinnati’s Great American Ball Park. He baffled the Reds as he had the Royals and Athletics in his two previous starts. He entered the game with a scoreless streak of 14 1/3 innings and had thrown 13 2/3 scoreless on eight hits in his most recent outings ag

Asked this afternoon about the new-look lineup he put together after his Nationals were held to two total runs the previous three days, Davey Martinez smirked. "The definition of insanity, right?" the manager said. "Hey, I'm going to try to do something." That new look – Jacob Young leading off, ahead of CJ Abrams – did produce the Nats’ first run

CINCINNATI – Winners of eight of their last 12 games and four of their past five series, the Orioles begin a weekend series tonight at Cincinnati, playing the next three days at Great American Ball Park as they begin their third road trip of the 2024 season. The Orioles have won three of their four road series – losing only at Pittsburgh – and are

The Nationals’ run-starved lineup should get a couple of veterans back in the coming days. First baseman Joey Gallo is scheduled to begin what should be a brief rehab assignment Saturday at Single-A Fredericksburg. Outfielder Victor Robles, meanwhile, continues on his rehab assignment at Triple-A Rochester and appears close to rejoining the big lea
