Dillon Atkinson: It's time to make a decision on Kim

Dillon Atkinson: It's time to make a decision on Kim
If I told you that an Orioles left fielder slashed .302/.382/.420 with six home runs over 346 plate appearances in 2016, you would typically be wise to guess that the same player would not only be the starting left fielder for the Birds in 2017, but would also bat at or near the top of the order night in and night out. However, that hasn't been the case for Hyun Soo Kim. It hasn't really been Kim's fault that he hasn't gotten playing time. Right out of the gate, Orioles manager Buck...

Andrew Stetka: Orioles may have to ride out Hardy's struggles

Andrew Stetka: Orioles may have to ride out Hardy's struggles
We're nearly two months into the baseball season, at about the quarter-pole, and there is plenty to be thankful for as an Orioles fan. The Birds are right in the thick of things in the American League East, and despite some injury concerns, have performed above expectations thus far. But there's always something to complain about. There's always something that can be better. There's always someone who draws the ire of fans more than anyone else. This season, that person seems to be J.J....

Zach Wilt: For Orioles, one is the loneliest number

Zach Wilt: For Orioles, one is the loneliest number
So this is what it feels like. The Orioles fell 6-5 to the Tigers yesterday. The loss concluded a 1-6 road trip in Washington, Kansas City, and Detroit, and became the O's sixth straight one-run loss. Those tight losses are something Orioles fans aren't accustomed to, Our club is typically on the winning end of tight games. Lately though, it seems like they have been unable to flip the script and are losing a lot of winnable games. A season ago, Baltimore was 21-16 in one-run games. Between...

Yard Work podcast: Episode 6

Yard Work podcast: Episode 6
Hey there, Orioles fans! Welcome to another edition of Yard Work. On this week's episode ... The Birds hit a bit of a rough patch, suffering a four-game losing streak and their first series sweep at the hands of the Royals. Oddly enough, all four losses came by just one run. Was there a key to coming up short? Steve Melewski and I will recap the week. One aspect you can certainly point to was Kevin Gausman's continued struggles on the mound in 2017. His start Sunday was disappointing,...

Andrew Stetka: Mora a bright spot during otherwise dark Oriole years

Andrew Stetka: Mora a bright spot during otherwise dark Oriole years
Orioles fans didn't have a whole lot to cheer about between 1998 and 2011. That's 14 years of losing, met with a lot of disappointment and sitting in the cellar of the American League East. There were few bright spots, but one of them was Melvin Mora, who spent about 10 years in Baltimore. As it turns out, Mora decided to spend more than that in the area. Mora made a decision to settle down in Harford County during his playing days. Despite spending time with the Rockies and Diamondbacks...

Zach Wilt: Celebrating Dylan Bundy Day

Zach Wilt: Celebrating Dylan Bundy Day
It's only mid-May, but I am happy to report that Dylan Bundy Day is officially a thing for Baltimore Orioles fans. Congrats, guys, we've made it happen. Every five days (or so), myself and fellow Orioles enthusiasts celebrate a day in which our team's best starting pitcher takes the mound. We wake up in the morning feeling refreshed and well rested from a good night's sleep, we're eager to watch our team that evening, and we feel confident in our starting pitcher's ability to earn a...

Dillon Atkinson: All aboard the Norfolk shuttle

Dillon Atkinson: All aboard the Norfolk shuttle
In the past couple of seasons, depth for the back end of the Orioles rotation and front end of the bullpen has been fairly thin. For the most part, it was Tyler Wilson, Mike Wright, T.J. McFarland and - for 2016 only - Vance Worley. In 2017, Orioles executive vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette has made sure manager Buck Showalter has had more options to choose from, and the O's skipper is using all that he can. Wilson and Wright are still around, joined by Alec Asher, Logan...

Andrew Stetka: Britton's injury reveals disturbing trend, bigger test for O's

Andrew Stetka: Britton's injury reveals disturbing trend, bigger test for O's
As if the Orioles haven't been faced with enough challenges in the first month or so of the season, they'll now stare down another tough task. Zach Britton's latest setback is a tough pill to swallow for Orioles fans, and not just those that (cough, cough) may have him on their fantasy team. It was devastating to see the dominant closer go down on April 16 with the initial indications of the forearm strain. When he was reinstated last week and made two appearances in non-save situations,...

Zach Wilt: Birds bounce back from ejections, but still deal with ripple effects

Zach Wilt: Birds bounce back from ejections, but still deal with ripple effects
There were many frustrating aspects to umpire Sam Holbrook's decision to eject Kevin Gausman in the bottom of the second during Wednesday night's Orioles-Red Sox game. For starters, Chris Sale threw behind Manny Machado the night before and got nothing more than a warning. Gausman got tossed for plunking Xander Bogaerts on a 77 mph breaking ball without either club receiving warnings from the crew. Who intentionally hits a guy with an off-speed pitch? Gausman's average fastball velocity,...

Yard Work: Episode 4

Yard Work: Episode 4
Hey, O's fans! Welcome to the latest installment of Yard Work. On this week's episode ... Last weekend it seemed like the hearts of Orioles fans were filled with despair and disgust. A three-game series in the Bronx was full of drama and heartache, most notably the team's collapse Friday during the series opener. Still, it was foolish to think any team was going to win every series. It's a long season and pitfalls happen. But what did this past weekend's series say about the Orioles - and...

Dillon Atkinson: Machado displaying maturity through incidents with Red Sox

Dillon Atkinson: Machado displaying maturity through incidents with Red Sox
In a 10-day span, Orioles third baseman Manny Machado has been thrown at five times in two games. After the fifth one, Tuesday night from the live arm of Red Sox's ace southpaw Chris Sale, Machado finally had some choice words for the Red Sox, and he certainly didn't hold back his true feelings. He used many expletives in his postgame rant, stating that he has lost all respect for the Red Sox organization. I'll note that there may now be 29 teams - instead of 30 - in contention for...
