NEW YORK – The weekend had already included rain delays, trades and a lot of offense. Sunday’s series finale between the Nationals an Mets included none of that. Nor did it include a win for the visitors. A tepid offensive showing against Justin Verlander and a laborious start from Trevor Williams doomed the Nats during a 5-2 loss to close out a lo

The Orioles are hosting an ESPN game tonight for the first time in five years and trying to win their 20th series following last night’s 8-3 loss to the Yankees before the second sellout crowd of the season. Adley Rutschman is leading off again after going 0-for-2 last night with a walk and hit-by-pitch. His on-base streak has reached a career-high

The Orioles have made the following roster moves: Selected the contract of RHP Joey Krehbiel from Triple-A Norfolk. He will wear No. 52.Optioned RHP Tyler Wells to Double-A Bowie after yesterday’s game.Designated RHP Eduard Bazardo for assignment. The Orioles’ 40-man roster currently has 40 players.

Unable to exhibit the same patience displayed during their rebuild period, the Orioles optioned struggling starter Tyler Wells to Double-A Bowie after last night’s game. They made the announcement this afternoon. Reliever Joey Krehbiel had his contract selected from Triple-A Norfolk, and reliever Eduard Bazardo was designated for assignment to make

NEW YORK – When the Nationals’ lineup for today’s series finale against the Mets was posted and Lane Thomas’ name was notably missing, eyebrows surely were raised within the clubhouse, the fan base and perhaps around the rest of the majors. Such is life in the final days of July, when any player who could be on the trade block doesn’t play. Thomas’

NEW YORK – It’s been quite a weekend here at Citi Field, with two rain delays, two wins for the Mets, one win for the Nationals and one massive trade of a New York pitcher who will forever be better known for pitching for Washington. Now it’s the finale of this four-game series, the Nats with a chance to head home with a split and rub some more sal

The trade deadline is fast approaching. It is Tuesday at 6 p.m. ET and we are getting real close now. The deadline has seemed to not be a big topic in the O’s clubhouse this year, and one reason may be the team’s desire to be buyers this time and not sellers. O’s executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias said Friday he is not looking

We’re down to two days before the trade deadline and the Orioles have made one deal, with the Athletics for reliever Shintaro Fujinami on July 19. Executive vice president/general manager Mike Elias is in contact with everyone, whether due diligence or doing it with legitimate hopes of reaching an agreement. Elias’ 26-minute media session Friday af

NEW YORK – There haven’t been many days in the last two years when the Nationals could compare themselves to the Mets and feel better about their own situation than their division counterparts. And there may not be many more days in the near future when that will be the case. But on this day, July 29, 2023, it was impossible for the guys in the vis

Heading into the All-Star break, right-hander Tyler Wells was an O’s pitcher on a roll. His ERA for the year was 3.18 and it was 2.83 in his most recent eight starts. He had pitched 18 times for the Orioles, going five innings or more every time and going six or more 10 times. But he has been a different pitcher coming out of the break with three o
