Orioles fans are nearly unanimous in wanting a Rogers contract extension
Right before the season, the Orioles signed Shane Baz to a contract extension before ever throwing a pitch with the team. Just in the last week, they signed Kyle Bradish, a much more familiar face to Orioles fans, to a contract extension as well. Now that Mike Elias is starting to actually spend money on […]
Orioles 2026 Draft Signing Tracker
The Orioles completed their 2026 draft class across 20 rounds on July 11 and 12. This year’s class has 20 players in it, one for each round. The next step is to get players signed and into the organization. In most cases, that’s going to be settled before the trade deadline. The signing deadline this […]
Orioles minor league recap 7/25: Dzierwa helps pitch Baysox to victory
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 2, Charlotte Knights (CWS) 1 – Game 1 Offense was at a premium last night as the Tides and Knights had just three hits apiece and all three runs scored on solo home runs. Cade Povich started for the Tides and gave up three hits and three walks in five innings. He […]
Orioles news: O’s begin homestand with brutal loss
Good morning Birdland, These Orioles sure do know how to wear out any goodwill they have built up with a quickness. Coming back from a successful road trip, which concluded with a streak-stopping win up in Boston, the O’s began their brief homestand with a brutal 7-6 loss to the visiting Braves. Yours truly was […]
O’s waste Rogers gem, leave bases loaded in 9th, implode in 10th
The Orioles had plenty of chances, but failed to cash in on enough of them, wasting a great start from Trevor Rogers and losing the series opener to the Braves 7-6 in extra innings on Friday night in Baltimore. This was yet another strong showing for Rogers. The lefty worked seven innings, six of which […]
Friday night game thread: vs Braves, 7:05
When you are trying to chase down several other teams in the playoff race, and games between now and the trade deadline are running short, every series feels big. This weekend’s clash with the Atlanta Braves is no different. Our very own John Beers provided a run down of the matchup earlier today. The Orioles […]
Orioles-Braves series preview: The NL East leaders come to Baltimore
As has been the case for much of this season, the Orioles come into this weekend’s series vs. the Braves with a point to prove. Baltimore thought they proved they were ready to be playoff contenders by sweeping the Astros in Houston. That point was then undercut by losing two out of three in Fenway—though […]
The Accidental Closer: Tyler Wells and the ninth inning
Tyler Wells wasn’t supposed to be here. By here, I mean, in the Majors at all, and certainly not taking the mound in the ninth inning with a lead to protect for this Orioles team. But injury luck has a way of rewriting careers, and Wells’s is one of the stranger paths in today’s game. […]
Orioles minor league recap 7/24: Delmarva plates 23 in doubleheader
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides vs. Charlotte Knights (White Sox) PPD — Rain The game will be made up today as part of a doubleheader Double-A: Erie SeaWolves (Tigers) 8, Chesapeake Baysox 7 Frederick Bencosme cut the lead to one with a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth, and Chesapeake got the tying run into […]
Orioles news: Tough schedule upcoming, O’s prospects get praise
Good morning, Camden Chatters. Just 10 days remain until the MLB trade deadline, and at this moment, there’s no telling which direction the Orioles are going to go. Two weeks ago they looked like sure sellers, but their recent seven-game winning streak, which currently puts them three games back of the final wild card, might […]
Which lower-ranked Orioles prospects are worth following?
Earlier this week, Camden Chat colleague Paul Folkemer examined how the prospects on our preseason top 20 prospects ranking have been performing this season. That group of players are a mix of exciting, interesting, and disappointing. There are other players in the Orioles system right now who didn’t crack that list before the season who […]
Orioles minor league recap 7/23: Another big night for the Frederick offense
Triple-A: Charlotte Knights (White Sox) 8, Norfolk Tides 4 A pair of two-run home runs was all the offense that the Tides could muster. Heston Kjerstad hit his sixth long ball of the season in the sixth inning, and Bryan Ramos went deep for the third time in the ninth inning to make the scoreline […]
Orioles news: Basallo to IL, trade deadline direction
Hello, friends. The Orioles found a way to avoid a complete disaster of a series in Boston by winning the second game of yesterday’s doubleheader, in the process stopping the Red Sox from setting a new franchise record for longest winning streak. The first game of the doubleheader was almost as bad as the first […]
Orioles snap Red Sox’s 15-game winning streak with 5-1 win in Boston
The Orioles jumped on Boston’s starter Eduardo Rivera early and used that early offensive explosion to propel them to victory. After Taylor Ward barely missed a leadoff double into the right field corner, Pete Alonso started the rally with a ground rule double over the low wall in right. Gunnar Henderson then worked a four-pitch […]
Wednesday night Orioles Game 2 thread: at Red Sox, 7:10pm ET
Probable pitchers: RHP Kyle Bradish (6-9, 3.61 ERA, 106 Ks) vs. LHP Eduardo Rivera (0-0, 2.89 ERA, 9 Ks Where to watch: MASN/MASN+ The first two games in Boston have been a kick in the teeth for an Orioles team (and fanbase) that came into Beantown riding high. A seven-game win streak and a spot […]
Red Sox top Orioles again, 6-3, tie franchise-best win streak
Remember when this was supposed to be a hard-fought series between the two hottest teams in baseball? It sure looks like a one-sided letdown to me. The O’s again failed to quash Boston’s historic winning streak, which tied a franchise-best 14 games in a 6-3 Red Sox victory. Dean Kremer bombed immediately, coughing up four […]
Wednesday afternoon Orioles game 1 thread: at Red Sox, 1:35
The opener of the three-game series between two streaking teams was a disappointment for the Orioles. Now they’ll get two chances today to redeem themselves. After the Birds’ four-error, one-run loss on Monday snapped their seven-game winning streak — and extended Boston’s to 14 — last night’s rainout has led to a split doubleheader to […]
Are the Orioles capable of playing winning baseball?
The Orioles had won seven straight before traveling to Boston to face the only team in the league touting a better win streak. The Birds were set to play in their first series in over a year that carried a heightened sense of meaning. Playing the Red Sox—a division opponent in possession of a playoff […]
Orioles minor league recap 7/22: Keys hammer five homers in win
Triple-A: Charlotte Knights 7, Norfolk Tides 6 The Tides staged a dramatic comeback attempt, but came up just short as they dropped their series opener to the Knights. Starter Trace Bright ran into trouble in the 4th and 5th innings, surrendering seven runs across the two frames to put the Tides in a 7-3 hole. […]
Orioles news: Is Adley Rutschman on the trading block?
Good morning Birdland, Rain in the Boston area yesterday meant no Orioles game. The two teams are set to play a split double-header today instead. Game 1 will start at 1:35, while Game 2 gets underway at 7:10. The Orioles are looking to snap the Red Sox 14-game winning streak and get back in the […]
With Bradish extended, should Trevor Rogers be next on Orioles list?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Orioles fans and fans across the country.

What Kyle Bradish’s extension means for the rest of the rotation
When Kyle Bradish takes the mound tonight in Boston, he’ll make the first start of the next era of his career. I have often referred to Bradish as the “Orioles’ former ace”—having been dethroned by the acquisition of Corbin Burnes and his subsequent UCL injury that required Tommy John surgery. However, after the recent announcement […]
Orioles prospect check-in: How are the preseason top 20 doing this year?

Orioles news: A brutal loss in Boston
Happy Tuesday, Camden Chatters! Did you watch last night’s baseball game between the Orioles and the Red Sox? It was pretty dumb. It’s not that the Orioles lost, which was disappointing but not that surprising. It was the way in which they lost. They made four errors! A Jeremiah Jackson throwing error allowed a baserunner […]
Orioles’ defensive gaffes hand Red Sox their 14th straight win
The Orioles’ seven-game winning streak is over. And it was a heartbreaker. They came up against the buzzsaw of the Boston Red Sox’ 13-game (now 14-game) winning streak and couldn’t do quite enough to overcome it, torpedoing their own chances with a brutal four-error performance in a 6-5 loss. Tonight marked only the fifth time […]
