The Orioles aren’t gaining sufficient ground in the standings but their roster is healthier. Infielder Jordan Westburg and outfielder Cedric Mullins were reinstated from the 10-day injured list earlier today. But it cost Heston Kjerstad a roster spot. He was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk. And it cost Emmanuel Rivera a place in the organization after

For the first time in 35 years, the Fredericksburg Nationals will have new ownership. Art Silber, who purchased the franchise in 1990 when it was still known as the Prince William Cannons and played in Woodbridge, announced Monday a deal to sell the team to Diamond Baseball Holdings, a company that owns more than 40 of Minor League Baseball’s 120 a

The next homestand has arrived, with three games against the Tigers and three against the Angels before the Orioles fly to Tampa and reenact spring training at George M. Steinbrenner Field. The Yankees are one of the road opponents, but they still play in the Bronx. The Rays relocated from hurricane-ravaged Tropicana Field to Tampa. Don’t let it co

Couple that with a sweep of the White Sox, and that’s eight of nine. With Jordan Westburg and Cedric Mullins potentia

They waited all week for someone to deliver the big hit that would snap the entire team out of its sudden offensive funk. They’ll still be waiting when they next take the field Tuesday night in New York, hoping success comes on the road, because it sure didn’t come at home. The Nationals completed a disappointing series and a disappointing homestan

WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. – “When you’re talking about 10-plus guys on the IL, and now, little by little, they’re coming back. If you understand that, you know that things will turn around," Ramón Laureano said last night.  "And that’s what we’re seeing right now.” Things are trending in the right direction in Baltimore.  After last night’s 7-4, come
