Game 28 lineups: Nats vs. Mets

It seems that runs will be at a premium throughout this four-game series, given how good the Mets pitching staff has been as a whole and how good the Nationals rotation has been to date. We saw it in Friday night’s opener, aside from the eighth and ninth innings. And we certainly saw it Saturday in New York’s 2-0 victory, in which Francisco Alvarez
DETROIT – Tyler O’Neill tried to play through the neck soreness and had to succumb. The Orioles put O’Neill on the 10-day injured list yesterday. He’s hoping to be back when eligible to return. “That’s obviously the goal,” he said last night. “Just, unfortunately, dealing with some pain and immobility for the better part of a week. It’s just better
The Orioles have made the following roster move: Returned 27th man RHP Colin Selby to Triple-A Norfolk after tonight’s doubleheader.
DETROIT – The bullpen gates swung open and Charlie Morton jogged onto the field, glove tucked under his arm and his routine scrambled. This wasn’t the typical starter’s stroll to the mound to begin warming for the first inning. The 41-year-old Morton was reliving the final game of his rookie season. Manager Brandon Hyde chose to use Morton in relie
On a day in which they got another quality (if abbreviated) start from Brad Lord and then a bunch of zeroes from members of their bullpen who haven’t put up many of those this season, the Nationals gave themselves a golden opportunity to beat the best team in baseball for the second time in 24 hours. Surprisingly effective pitching is great, but it
The Orioles have made the following roster moves: Recalled LHP Grant Wolfram from Triple-A Norfolk. He will wear number 86.Optioned RHP Brandon Young to Triple-A Norfolk.Added RHP Colin Selby from Triple-A Norfolk to serve as the 27th man for tonight’s doubleheader.
DETROIT – The Orioles began the day with an injury update that removed a second outfielder from the roster. They sent a rookie to the mound for his second major league start in the first game of a doubleheader and watched him walk five batters in two innings. A tall order against the first-place Tigers kept growing, along with an organization’s col
Scan the stat page and you’ll find that Lucas Sims, Eduardo Salazar and Colin Poche rank among the Nationals’ leaders in appearances as the season’s first month winds down. Then consider none of the three has pitched in at least four days, and you realize just how much Davey Martinez was counting on all of them earlier this month before each strugg
How wild was Friday night’s 5-4, walk-off win for the Nationals? So wild that a controversial triple play was like the No. 4 storyline of the game. That’s wild. The Nats happily took that win, their fifth in their last seven games. They’re back to two games under .500 at 12-14, actually only a game behind the Phillies for second place in the NL Eas
DETROIT – The Orioles couldn’t wait any longer on Tyler O’Neill. Prior to today’s doubleheader, the Orioles placed O’Neill on the 10-day injured list with inflammation in his neck and recalled outfielder Dylan Carlson from Triple-A Norfolk. The move is backdated to Thursday and O’Neill is eligible to be reinstated on May 4. “He’s been dealing with
Tyler O’Neill is out of the Orioles’ Game 1 lineup today as he continues to receive treatment for neck discomfort. Outfielder Dylan Carlson is on the taxi squad. He didn’t play yesterday in Triple-A Norfolk’s doubleheader. Reliever Colin Selby also is on the taxi squad. The Orioles won’t announce their 27th man until the conclusion of Game 1. Adley
