Connection on farm with Holt paying off now for Cionel Pérez

Orioles
Orioles lefty reliever Cionel Pérez, who is having a big year out of the bullpen, was a member of the high Single-A Buies Creek Astros in 2017. He pitched in just 25 1/3 innings for that team, but his pitching coach was Chris Holt. The same guy who is Baltimore's pitching coach now. Pérez remembered today that Holt helped him, and having Holt here

Grayson Rodriguez is undergoing further testing today in Baltimore, and the Orioles hope to have more information later. Rodriguez left last night’s start after 5 2/3 scoreless innings with discomfort in his right lat. There’s definitely some concern within the organization because Rodriguez is the No. 1 pitching prospect in baseball and nearing hi

NEW YORK – Though he’d never admit it publicly, Mike Rizzo knew what this season likely had in store for the Nationals. From the moment he dealt away eight veterans at last July’s trade deadline and made only modest acquisitions to account for it last winter, the longtime general manager signaled 2022 would be less about wins and losses and more ab

The smile, chuckle and slight eye roll gave away Trey Mancini’s opinion on the subject, and he didn’t need to hear the rest of the question. He knew what was coming and found the amusement in it. Adley Rutschman began last night’s game on the bench, a break that manager Brandon Hyde planned in advance. Baseball’s top prospect is living up to the de

Amid homers, Mullins had a good night that could prove to be big

Sure the Orioles mashed four homers last night in a 9-2 win over Seattle and sure they even crushed a couple of balls over the left-field wall. That seems to make news around here these days.

The idea of platooning Orioles second baseman Rougned Odor doesn’t seem to carry the same logic as it did earlier in the season. Manager Brandon Hyde kept Odor in the lineup tonight against Mariners left-hander Robbie Ray. One pitch validated his decision. Odor jumped on a slider from Ray in the second inning and drove it to the back of the flag co
