CLEARWATER, Fla. – Spring stats don’t appear to carry much weight with Orioles manager Brandon Hyde. He’s only checked the number of plate appearances. Otherwise, he has no interest. It’s more about the quality of the at-bats and a pitcher’s control in the strike zone, he says. “Put very little stock in what their numbers are like.” Some of the com

CLEARWATER, Fla. – DL Hall can only express confidence that he’s going to be available to the Orioles if they want him on the Opening Day roster. He won’t be a starter. Time is too short to stretch him out. But he’ll be healthy and able to pitch. The rest is up to the team. Hall threw his first bullpen session yesterday in Sarasota, his spring trai

When it comes to getting an opinion on the young Orioles infield prospects that are showing so well at this spring training, we could do a lot worse than Orioles Hall of Famer Mike Bordick. A 14-year big league veteran who played home games in Baltimore for parts of 1997 through 2002, Bordick was inducted into the Orioles Hall of Fame in 2011. A 20

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. – It’s all anyone wants to talk about this spring training, whether you’re in Florida or Arizona: Major League Baseball’s new rules for the upcoming season.

SARASOTA, Fla. – The number surprised Coby Mayo, and he’s grown accustomed to his power being translated beyond the loud sounds. Mayo lined a double off the left-center field fence Tuesday in Fort Myers with an exit velocity of 111.5 mph, per Statcast data. Hit the padding on the fly. Or more accurately, on a line.
