Baz blasted, Orioles offense dormant in loss to Angels

Whatever else can be said about the 2026 Orioles, you’ve got to give this to them: They’re really committed to the bit. The problem for everyone who would prefer if they win games is that the bit the Orioles are committed to is the steadfast refusal to ever go on any kind of extended winning […]

Which injured Orioles can provide a spark in the second half?

It’s impossible to tell the story of the 2026 Orioles without mentioning injuries. The same can be said about the 2025 Orioles, the 2024 Orioles, and really every other team. Injuries are always part of baseball, but sometimes they play a larger role than others. Jordan Westburg will miss the entire 2026 season after undergoing […]

Orioles news: Orioles fail to win fourth in a row yet again

Good morning Birdland, Yet again, a fourth consecutive win eluded the Orioles. Their mini winning streak came to an end in Anaheim on Tuesday night with a 5-1 loss. They will attempt to snag the series later today. First pitch is 4:07 eastern time. If the Orioles were to continuously win three out of every […]

Tuesday night game thread: at Angels, 9:38

The Orioles have won three games in a row several times this season. They are yet to win four games in a row. That could change tonight as the O’s send Shane Baz to the mound in search of their fourth consecutive win in the Los Angeles area. The team took the final two games […]

Podcast: Wrapping up a middling Orioles first half

Tonight, the Orioles will play their 81st game of the season, marking the mathematical halfway point of the regular season. The best they can do is 39-42. That’s disappointing relative to preseason hopes that this thing would get turned around, but this first half really could have been a lot worse than it was. Whatever […]

Grading the Orioles’ offseason moves at the 2026 halfway point

After tonight’s game with the Angels, the Orioles will officially reach the 81-game mark of their 2026 campaign. Heading into Game 81, it’s safe to say that the first half of the O’s season has largely been disappointing. Seen by most as a strong wild card contender heading into the season, Baltimore currently sits below […]

Kyle Bradish dominates, Orioles take series opener over Angels

If you didn’t know any better, if you hadn’t been watching the rest of the 2026 Orioles season, you could be tempted after a game like this one to conclude that things are definitely going to be okay with the Orioles. Maybe we are in the middle of where they’re finally doing it. Maybe. They […]

Orioles news: Orioles win third in a row, deal with injuries on infield

Good morning Birdland, These Orioles are gonna make me believe in them again, aren’t they? Their 6-1 win on Monday night in Anaheim made it three in a row, and they did it in impressive fashion. Kyle Bradish tossed eight scoreless innings, Taylor Ward and Coby Mayo hit home runs, Gunnar Henderson had three hits, […]

Orioles vs. Angels discussion

Fresh off taking two of three games on the road against the Dodgers, the Orioles are on the verge of possibly helping people to feel a little bit better about their fortunes. What is standing between now and that possibility occurring is a series against the Angels. The Orioles need to actually keep playing well […]

Orioles-Angels series preview: A golden opportunity

The Orioles are flying high after taking two out of three from a talented Dodgers team. They’ll look to carry the momentum into a three-game set against the last place Angels tonight. On paper, this is a golden opportunity to take care of business and climb toward the elusive .500 mark. That being said, I […]

Blaze Alexander is proving to be more than a utility player

Most utility players have some sort of deficiency in their game that prevents them from being considered an “everyday” option. But occasionally, those super subs go on a hot streak that makes you wonder if they could make the leap to becoming a vital piece in the daily lineup. Blaze Alexander is doing that right […]

Orioles minor league recap 6/22: Keys homer four times in win

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets 5, Norfolk Tides 3 The Tides brought the tying run to the plate twice in the 9th inning, but couldn’t complete the comeback, dropping a back-and-forth series finale to the Mets.

Orioles news: Wins in Los Angeles, Kremer starts rehab

Hello, friends. The confusing Orioles have done it again. They wrapped up their weekend series against the MLB-best Los Angeles Dodgers, who also happen to be two-time defending champions, by putting a 12-1 thumping on their opponent. They head to a different part of the metro area to face the AL-worst Angels with a series […]

Orioles take series with dominant 12-1 win over Dodgers

The Orioles entered today’s series finale against the Dodgers fresh off a pair of late-inning affairs. Wisely, the Birds decided not to leave anything to chance this afternoon. Baltimore scored in each of the first four innings and kept its foot on the gas for the remainder of the contest. The Dodgers put together rallies […]

Father’s Day Orioles game thread: at Dodgers, 4:10

The Orioles will look to take the series today with Brandon Young on the mound at Dodger Stadium. The team let Friday’s game slip away and nearly lost control in the ninth inning last night.

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets 11, Norfolk Tides 10 Norfolk carried a one-run lead into the bottom of the ninth, but Syracuse won the game with an RBI triple and a walk-off sac fly.

Orioles news: Rutschman’s concussion, Keys division title

Hello, friends. Happy Father’s Day to all the dads of Birdland. This article is being written before the result of Saturday’s game against the Dodgers is settled, though of course you’ll know what happened by the time you read these words. They were winning and Trevor Rogers was looking great at the time I set […]

O’s avoid disaster, make Rogers gem stand up in 3-2 win

There were some worrying moments at the end, but ultimately the Orioles were able to ride a terrific start from Trevor Rogers and a clutch double off Blaze Alexander’s bat to a 3-2 win on Saturday night in Los Angeles. It is games like this where we must ask the question “Is Trevor Rogers all […]

Saturday night game thread: at Dodgers, 10:10

Last night was nearly a marquee win for the Orioles team. Instead, it was just another disappointing loss. The team has no choice but to flush the defeat and try to get back on the right track tonight. It won’t be an easy matchup. Yoshinobu Yamamoto has thrown 16.1 innings over his last two starts […]

Orioles minor league recap 6/20: Tides score 14 as affiliates sweep

Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 14, Syracuse Mets 3 It was an offensive explosion for the Tides on this night. They racked up 16 hits, nine for extra bases, in a blowout win in Syracuse. Shortstop José Barrero had quite possibly the most productive game of his life, going 4-for-5 with two home runs, a double, four […]

Helsley blows it as Dodgers walk off Orioles in series opener

The Orioles were on their way to what might have been a feel-good win in their series opener against the two-time defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers. They carried a two-run lead into the bottom of the ninth on Friday night. Even against these guys, that should have been enough. Closer Ryan Helsley, fresh off the […]

Orioles news: West coast woes continue

Good morning Birdland, The west coast road trip is not going well for the Orioles. After dropping two of three in Seattle, they have now lost the opener in Los Angeles, and it happened in particularly brutal fashion. The game was actually pretty great up until the ninth inning. Our guys dug out of an […]
