One day after the Orioles selected outfielder Dylan Beavers’ contract from Triple-A Norfolk, introducing one of the organization’s top prospects to the majors, they did the same with catcher/first baseman Samuel Basallo. The top guy is here. Basallo wasn’t in Norfolk’s lineup last night and he joined the team in Houston for this afternoon’s series

What an unexpected weekend this has become. The Nationals have strung together three consecutive quality starts. And the bullpen, in spite of an ugly top of the seventh Friday night, has only been scored upon in one of eight innings so far in this series against the Phillies, leading to two wins and one other highly competitive game. And now we com

Tim Federowicz is more than halfway through his first season replacing Buck Britton as manager of the Triple-A Norfolk Tides. He inherited a team and a specific responsibility. Telling a player that he’s going to the majors. And Friday night, informing one of the top prospects in the organization that he’s flying to Houston to join the Orioles. Tha

HOUSTON – The August schedule isn't an easy one for Baltimore.  With inexperience everywhere, the O's have had to face the two crown jewels of the American League West, the Mariners and Astros, in two consecutive series.  Baltimore took two of three against Seattle. And after taking game one in Houston, the Birds fought tooth and nail in Game 2.  I

In these, the dog days of August during a miserable season, there are still distinct glimmers of light for the Nationals. For all the chaos they’ve endured this year, there remain more than a few prominent young core players who still have the ability to make 2025 meaningful in the larger picture. And when they come together like they did today dur

Instead, the excitement will come from memorable moments, encouraging signs for the future, and individual accomplishments.  L

Dylan Beavers is making his major league debut tonight, starting in right field and batting sixth in Houston. He’s the 61st player used by the Orioles this season, one short of the franchise record set in 2021. Daniel Johnson is in center field and Dylan Carlson is in left. Coby Mayo stays at first base, with Ryan Mountcastle serving as designated

As the Nationals took the field for batting practice Friday afternoon, Miguel Cairo motioned to Keibert Ruiz and José Tena to come join him at first base. To field grounders. And make some throws. And learn a little bit about a position neither of them has ever played before in a game. It made for quite the scene, both because the 51-year-old inter

Two games into this four-game series, the Nationals and Phillies have each won once. Each was a competitive game decided late by the bullpens. It’s kind of been fun to watch, hasn’t it? So, what’s in store for game three of the weekend set later this afternoon? The headline attraction from the Nats’ standpoint is Cade Cavalli, who makes his third s
