NEW YORK – James Wood and Trey Lipscomb each took long roads to only end up in their own backyards. The two Nationals prospects both grew up within an hour of D.C. and now they’re teammates for the first time at the major league level. “This is kinda how it felt all throughout the minors,” Wood said. “We just are doing the same stuff that we do nor

On Tuesday night during the All-Star game in Texas, no doubt at some point the national television audience will hear one of the broadcasters point out the two O’s starters in the game – Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson – were the first two draft picks by Mike Elias after joining the Orioles. Rutschman was the No. 1 pick in that 2019 draft but

The amount of Orioles All-Star snubs is shrinking. The bucket isn’t empty. Perhaps the more egregious omission is closer Craig Kimbrel, whose 23 saves already match last year’s total with the Phillies and are one more than in 2022 with the Dodgers. His ERA is down to 2.10 with a 0.903 ERA in 38 appearances. He’s allowed one earned run in his last 2

Ryan Mountcastle’s fly ball with two outs in the fourth inning fell in front of charging Cubs right fielder Seiya Suzuki for a soft double. The Orioles had their first baserunner. They got a body in scoring position. Newly appointed All-Star Anthony Santander swung at the next pitch and grounded out to extend the club’s scoreless streak to 19 innin

Leading the American League East by two games over the Yankees, the Orioles take the field as a first-place team tonight, but one that is looking to avoid a three-game sweep. The Cubs have beaten the Orioles by 9-2 and 4-0 the past two nights and could hand the Orioles their first home sweep this year. Baltimore has been swept twice on the road - M

Make that five All-Star representatives for the Orioles. Outfielder Anthony Santander has made the American League club as an injury replacement for Houston’s Kyle Tucker. He'll also head out early to Arlington, Texas. Santander joins starters Gunnar Henderson and Adley Rutschman, pitcher Corbin Burnes and infielder Jordan Westburg. This is the hig

NEW YORK – The Nationals entered Thursday’s matinee finale in Queens needing a win against the Mets to avoid the three-game sweep. More importantly, they needed a win to slow down their two-week slide before the finale series of the first half. It’s been a mostly positive first half of the season for the Nationals, who have surpassed some preseason

The Orioles acquired right-hander Colin Selby, 26, from the Royals today for cash considerations and optioned him to Triple-A Norfolk. Kyle Bradish was moved to the 60-day injured list to make room on a full 40-man roster. Selby, a Virginia native, made two relief appearances with the Royals and allowed two earned runs (three total) in three inning

An adjustment to the Orioles’ bullpen seemed inevitable. The move came early this afternoon. Dillon Tate was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk and right-handed reliever Burch Smith had his contract selected from the Tides. Smith will wear No. 40. Tate will try to fix whatever’s wrong. Tate has made three appearances this month and given up runs in each

NEW YORK – The Nationals need a win today, plan and simple. After trending in the right direction for most of the first half, they are heading the opposite way going into the All-Star break. A win to avoid a sweep at Citi Field and a couple more in Milwaukee wouldn’t be a cure-all. But it would be a good way for the team to enter the break and perh
