BOSTON - Interim manager Tony Mansolino sat down in the dugout this afternoon for his daily media scrum and said, “Whatever you guys have got, I’m ready to go.” Orioles injuries tend to be the main topic. Notepads are recommended. Memories can't be trusted.  Infielder Jordan Westburg exited last night’s game in the first inning with discomfort in h

Andrés Chaparro’s last stint with the Nationals didn’t include much playing time, to put it mildly. He appeared in only four games during three weeks on the big league roster in June. This time around, there should be considerably more at-bats for the 26-year-old first baseman/designated hitter, who was recalled from Triple-A Rochester in a roster

BOSTON – Adley Rutschman was scratched from tonight’s Orioles lineup with right abdominal discomfort. Rutschman didn’t play last night, with Samuel Basallo making his first start behind the plate.

The Washington Nationals recalled first baseman Andrés Chaparro from Triple-A Rochester on Tuesday and optioned infielder José Tena to Triple-A Rochester following the game on Sunday.

The Nationals survived the first of four consecutive series against playoff contenders from Philadelphia and New York, splitting their four-game series with the Phillies. Next up, it’s the Mets, who come to town in a bit of a tailspin, having lost 14 of their last 17 while dealing with all kinds of injuries. They did manage to win two in a row over

The Orioles have made the following roster move: OF Greg Allen elected free agency in lieu of accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Norfolk.

The Nationals were down 6-0 in the top of the third Sunday afternoon. It was hot. It was muggy. They’d already clinched at least a four-game weekend split with the Phillies. And it would’ve been easy at that moment to be content with that. But when Trea Turner lined a two-out single to right field, Dylan Crews charged the ball and did what his base

BOSTON – Those moments during the season when it felt like the Orioles were scrambling to fill out their roster have disappeared like one of Samuel Basallo’s home run balls in the minors.
