With no need for a fifth starter again until next week in Los A
SAN FRANCISCO – The Nationals have a chance today to sweep a road series, extend their winning streak to four games and reach the .500 mark. Not a bad position to be in, especially considering all the other stuff that’s been going on in recent days. Despite the injuries, the Nats are playing good baseball right now. And another win this afternoon o
The Washington Nationals recalled catcher Drew Millas from Triple-A Rochester on Wednesday and optioned right-handed pitcher Joan Adon to Triple-A Rochester on Tuesday night. Nationals President of Baseball Operations and General Manager Mike Rizzo made the announcement. Millas, 26, made his Major League debut in 2023 after his contract was selecte
The Orioles have made the following roster moves: Selected the contract of 2B/SS Jackson Holliday from Triple-A Norfolk. He will wear No. 7 and his first appearance will be his Major League debut.Designated INF/OF Tony Kemp for assignment. The Orioles’ 40-man roster currently has 38 players.
BOSTON – The Jackson Holliday watch is over, and it’s a relief to fans and media. Everyone knew it was coming, but when? The waiting is the hardest part. Tom Petty was right. The Orioles obviously didn’t set an exact date and circulate it in public. Maybe it depended on his at-bats against left-handers and how he performed at second base. A specifi
As it turned out, No. 1 ranked prospect Jackson Holliday starting in the minors was not about service time. As he arrives today in the big leagues, he can still get a full year of service this season and can still get the O's a draft pick if he wins the Rookie of the Year award. And while he was briefly on the farm, he got rolling as a hitter, got
BOSTON – Cole Irvin isn’t afraid to pitch at Fenway Park. He’s actually a lover of old ballparks. Irvin appreciates the history. He wants to plant his feet in the middle of it. And he gets another opportunity tonight. Unlike Corbin Burnes, who made his first career start in Boston yesterday, Irvin is prepping for his second start and third appearan
SAN FRANCISCO – The 2024 Nationals aren’t constructed to win games with power. More often than not, they’re going to need to manufacture runs when presented with the opportunity. Of course, nobody said they can’t do both on the same night, and emerge victorious because of it. Thanks to an early blast from CJ Abrams, some patented small ball late an
BOSTON – The Orioles couldn’t wait any longer. An industry source has confirmed that infielder Jackson Holliday, baseball’s No.1 prospect, is joining the team in Boston. The offense pounded out 13 hits in a 7-1 win this afternoon, awakening from its slumber, but Holliday is on his way to provide another jolt. Holliday was an unpopular cut in spring
SAN FRANCISCO – Though he’s now on the injured list for the first time in his major league career, Josiah Gray was encouraged to learn the strain in his elbow and forearm is not likely to keep him out as long as a more serious injury he believes he avoided. Gray, who officially went on the 15-day IL today with what the Nationals have termed an elbo
SAN FRANCISCO – This was supposed to be a big outing for Josiah Gray, who would have been looking to bounce back from two ragged starts to begin his season. Instead, Gray is on the 15-day injured list with a right elbow/forearm flexor strain and Joan Adon instead will make this start against the Giants. Adon is no stranger to the big leagues; this
