The Orioles have made the following roster move: Appointed LHP Grant Wolfram from Triple-A Norfolk as the 27th man for today’s doubleheader.
ST. LOUIS – First things first: Luis García is not Luis García Jr. The former is the Nationals’ new 38-year-old reliever, signed on Tuesday. The latter is the Nats’ 25-year-old second baseman, the organization’s longest tenured player having signed as a teenager in 2016. Whose father, Luis García, is the 50-year-old former infielder who played eigh
The Orioles haven’t announced their starters for the weekend series against the Marlins that closes out the first half, but interim manager Tony Mansolino confirmed that rookie Brandon Young gets the ball on Sunday, and left-hander Trevor Rogers is certain to face his former team the previous afternoon. This will be a first for Rogers, taken by Mia
ST LOUIS – On day one, Miguel Cairo stayed on course and managed as if he was merely filling in for Davey Martinez. On day two, he decided to veer just a bit into the wild and try something different. And then was rewarded for it. With a couple of lineup tweaks designed both to get more right-handed hitters into the lineup against an opposing start
ST. LOUIS – Trevor Williams has a partial tear of his elbow ligament, one that will require a surgical procedure that will sideline the Nationals' right-hander until at least early next season, possibly most of the season.

LOUIS – Tuesday was not a normal day for the Nationals, who were adjusting to life with a new manager and general manager, then had to go out and play for the first time under that new arrangement (after waiting out a 2-hour, 19-minute rain delay, by the way). The result was a lackluster 4-2 loss to the Cardinals. Could tonight feel more normal
The Orioles remain 7 ½ games behind in pursuit of the last Wild Card spot after last night’s 7-6, 10-inning loss to the Mets. Thirteen games separate them from the first-place Blue Jays. There’s still a chance, but it’s barely a flicker. Tomoyuki Sugano is trying to get back to the form that produced a 3.04 ERA through 12 starts. He’s registered an
ST. LOUIS – So, anything interesting happen over the last 72 hours? Suffice it to say, it's been a monumental few days around the Nationals, with arguably the most significant personnel moves the organization has ever made coming Sunday night after their loss to the Red Sox. For the first time since early 2009, Mike Rizzo is not the general manager
