CHICAGO – The Orioles received positive news on Kyle Bradish’s rehab start last night at Double-A Bowie. His right foot felt good. The rest is just numbers, some more favorable than others. Bradish threw 82 pitches in five innings, so he’s stretched out. He allowed four runs (three earned) and three hits with one walk, five strikeouts and a home ru

The Nationals are losing more far more games than they win right now. But those losses all have been close. Four of their last five defeats have come by one run, including Friday night’s 4-3 margin to the Guardians. And the other was a 2-0 loss to Shohei Ohtani. So they’ll try to reverse that trend this afternoon in the second game of the weekend s

CHICAGO – Adley Rutschman is the designated hitter this afternoon against the White Sox, as the Orioles try to guarantee another series win. Rutschman ranks second in the American League and third in the majors with a .492 on-base percentage. He’s sixth in the majors with a 1.134 OPS. Ryan Mountcastle’s 19 RBIs continue to lead the majors. Gunnar H

The Nationals have been looking to get reliever Mason Thompson stretched out to cover multiple innings out of the bullpen since late last summer. The right-hander, who was acquired in the 2021 trade for Daniel Hudson with the Padres, has previous experience as a starter that can translate to a long-relief role. Between 2016-19 in San Diego’s farm s

BOWIE, Md. - Adley Rutschman was the clutch man again for the Orioles. The Orioles are now 5-0 this year in series-opening games after posting a come-from-behind 6-3 win over the White Sox in Chicago. Rutschman’s bases-loaded double to left center field in the seventh inning provided Baltimore a 4-3 lead and the O’s bullpen combined for 3 2/3 score

CHICAGO – Starter Tyler Wells referred to Adley Rutschman last night as “Superman” after the young catcher cleared the bases with a double in the seventh inning that gave the Orioles a lead. The latest hero turn following Thursday afternoon’s walk-off home run. However, it’s the activity on the basepaths that’s transforming the Orioles into the men

CHICAGO – However the Orioles construct their starting rotation, Tyler Wells should have his own room. Never mind the early talk of piggybacking or maybe sending him down to start in the minors. Demolish it and move on to the next project. While Kyle Bradish pitched tonight at Double-A Bowie on his injury rehab assignment, Wells cemented his role w

Carl Edwards Jr. has been one of the strongest relievers the Nationals have had over the past year. After signing a minor league deal and making the major league roster last May, the right-hander gave up three runs in his Nats debut and vowed he would be better. He would go on to pitch to a 2.76 ERA over 57 games in 2022 and return this year as one

BOWIE, Md. – The Orioles may be pointing to next Wednesday for right-hander Kyle Bradish to re-enter their starting rotation. He took a liner off his right foot in the second inning April 3 at Texas, went on the injured list and made a rehab start tonight at Double-A Bowie against Akron.  It was a big step for Bradish, who is eligible to rejoin the

After their first road trip was followed by their first homestand of the 2023 season, the Orioles are back on the road starting tonight. They play three games at Chicago against the White Sox this weekend and play two games in Washington next Tuesday and Wednesday at Nats Park. Baltimore went 3-3 on that first trip, going 1-2 at Boston and 2-1 at T
