The Orioles announced that right-hander Chris Bassitt has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to June 5th, due to low back discomfort. Fellow righty Trey Gibson has been recalled in his place and will start tonight’s game. The O’s signed Bassitt to a one-year, $18.5MM deal in the offseason. They haven’t received much […]
The Mariners opened their road trip with a particularly deflating series loss to the Detroit Tigers, but the good news is that now Motor City is in the rearview (for the regular season, anyway). Also fortunately in the rearview are the weird 10 a.m. PT start times; this week, they’ll be replaced by some good […]
The Chicago White Sox should trade for Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman, who is thriving at a position of need for Chris Getz.
Home sweet home. After going .500 on their six-game road trip, the O’s return to Baltimore, where their most recent homestand resulted in a 7-3 record and some of their most inspired baseball of the season. This time it’s going to be a tougher task, with all seven games coming against winning teams, starting with […]
Before the Orioles started their little six-game road trip last week, a 3-3 record across the six games would have felt pretty good. The O’s have not been good on the road so far this year, so even holding at .500 while outside of Camden Yards is positive. They just made it feel disappointing to […]
Just a few weeks ago, Colton Cowser was one of the worst hitters in baseball. His weaknesses were well known, his playing time had become sporadic, and the Orioles were treating the former Rookie of the Year runner-up like a fourth outfielder, at best. Since then, he has caught fire and become a primary driver […]
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 6, Gwinnett Stripers (ATL) 0 Norfolk had a four-run third inning, and they sure made it count. Luiz Vázquez and Bryan Ramos singled back-to-back, Michael Siani walked, and Tommy Pham hit a grand slam. The longtime major leaguer isn’t hitting great (.624 OPS) but this was certainly a good moment. The Tides […]
Good morning, Camden Chatters. The Orioles’ six-game road trip through two AL East cities went…fine, I guess. They broke even at 3-3 on the trip to remain four games under .500, as they were when they started. They’re 1.5 games out of the third wild card, if looking at the wild card standings this early […]
Orioles 4 Blue Jays 6 This had all the signs of being another one of those games. After 5 innings, we were down 4-0. Through four innings, Kevin Gausman had allowed one base runner, then it all fell apart in the fifth. Strikeout, home run, pop out, triple, double, home run, strikeout. 13 total bases […]
The Orioles appeared to be cruising toward a series win before a missed call and some shoddy defense resulted in a five-run sixth inning. The Blue Jays rode a bizarre stretch to a come from behind 6-4 victory, leaving the O’s to return to the United States with a bad taste in their mouths. The […]
Winning two games out of three on the road is all you can really ask for right now. We’ll see if the Orioles are up to the task this afternoon in Toronto. Samuel Basallo is in the lineup and will catch Orioles starter Shane Baz. Adley Rutschman will bat third as the designated hitter. If […]
Triple-A: Gwinnett Stripers (ATL) 6, Norfolk Tides 4 Christian Herberholz pitched four innings and allowed six runs, though just three were earned. The Tides made three errors in the game, including two in the three-run fifth inning. Once and future Oriole Dietrich Enns pitched 2.1 scoreless innings. They were winning until that inning. Creed Willems […]

Hello, friends. Not as fun a day of Orioles baseball yesterday. The narrative of improvement for Kyle Bradish was put on pause, hopefully for just that one game. At times his defense didn’t do him favors, but even so, there’s only so much to blame others when the pitcher gives up nine hits and three […]
Blue Jays rookie Spencer Miles, who was taken in the Rule 5 Draft, was praised by his teammate Ernie Clement and manager John Schneider.Miles pitched great for the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday during their 6-4 win over the Baltimore Orioles.

Orioles 4 Blue Jays 6 That seemed like the Ernie Clement show. His defense, especially in the ninth inning, was amazing. And he was 2 for 3, with a home run, triple, 3 RBI, 3 runs. What a day he had. Spencer Miles did a nice job as the ‘bulk’ guy, going 4.1 innings, allowing […]
After a feel-good win yesterday, the Orioles put up a clunker today. As is often the way, they were unable to score much until the late innings, and this time it was too little, too late. And the recently very steady Kyle Bradish struggled and lasted just four innings. It was not a winning combo […]
The Toronto Blue Jays are playing the Baltimore Orioles in a three-game series this weekend. Meaning it marks the return of former Toronto-turned-Baltimore pitcher Chris Bassitt, as well as coming back from injury. On Saturday, Bassitt spoke candidly about what it’s like to come back to Toronto, per Sportsnet. “This is a very, very special […] The post Orioles’ Chris Bassitt drops heartfelt admission on returning to Toronto appeared first on ClutchPoints .
I’m putting this together early, cause I’m running off to get a scan on this foot that I did something to. It is feeling much better today, but the doctor wants to see what I did. It was the strangest thing Spencer Miles is actually getting the start today. Simeon Woods Richardson will likely get […]
