To keep rookie Adley Rutschman in the Orioles’ lineup this afternoon as the designated hitter, manager Brandon Hyde had to sit one of his starters. He chose outfielder Anthony Santander, who moved to the bench for the series finale against the Yankees. Santander leads the club with 16 home runs. He has five multi-hit games in his last 14. But someo

Earlier this season, when he wasn’t a hitter on a heater, the Orioles' Ramón Urías, had you interviewed him then, would have expressed complete confidence in his offense and that his stats would soon come around. This was when his OPS was .648 at the end of May. The underlying data about his contact rates, exit velocity and other numbers told him h

Trey Mancini is starting in right field today, with Adley Rutschman the designated hitter for the final game of the Orioles’ series against the Yankees at Camden Yards. Rutschman moves down from second to fifth in the order. He has 16 doubles since June 10. Tyler Nevin is starting at third base. Ramón Urías is batting .404/.440/.723 (19-for-47) wit

Cal outfielder Dylan Beavers, the No. 33 overall pick in the MLB Draft last Sunday night by the Orioles, once had dreams of being a two-way player in college. Cal was going to use him as both a pitcher and a position player. His fastball was touching 92 and 93 mph and the coaches saw promise in him as a two-way talent. But that didn’t last too long

Would they dare? Would the Orioles toss a life raft to a rival’s drowning bullpen rather than offering a glass of water? OK, the Yankees aren’t in such dire straits, since they still have Clay Holmes closing, but an important bridge to him collapsed Friday night on the mound at Camden Yards. Michael King fractured his right elbow and was lost for t

PHOENIX – What does it take for the Nationals to win a baseball game right now? It takes everything going right. It takes a quality performance from the starting pitcher. It takes a sustained offensive attack from the early innings through the late ones. And it takes shutdown work from the bullpen. Remove any one part of that formula, and victory b

A series lost to close out the first half was followed by last night’s defeat and an early deficit tonight. Baseball’s surprise team was threatening to slip two games below .500. And the question loomed whether it could tap the brakes and avoid a serious crash. The competitive nature of the Orioles, the non-stop motor, figures to pull them through

Today, the Orioles signed OF Dylan Beavers (CBA, No. 33 overall) and OF Jud Fabian (CBB, No. 67 overall) from the 2022 First-Year Player Draft. Beavers and Fabian met with the media at Oriole Park.

SARASOTA, Fla. -- July 21, 2022 --  DreamLarge was honored to unveil a new mural in the Rosemary Art & Design District (RADD) on Thursday morning, honoring the powerful legacy of John “Buck” O’Neil, an iconic baseball legend and historical figure from Newtown. This larger-than-life mural came as part of the Gilbert Mural Initiative, which celeb

PHOENIX – As he made his way back from a left shoulder impingement, Josh Rogers probably figured he’d be back on the Nationals roster as soon as he was deemed healthy, whether in their rotation or their bullpen. Instead, a healthy Rogers now finds himself in the rotation at Triple-A Rochester. Though they formally activated him off the 15-day injur
