Mike Elias deserves credit for taking the 2018 Orioles and turning them into a playoff team.

Good morning, Camden Chatters. The first day of the winter meetings is behind us, and so far there’s been a lot more talk than action, both for the Orioles and the rest of MLB.

Will the Orioles actually sign a difference-making starting pitcher this offseason? I’ll believe this is going to happen when I see it happen.

It’s no secret that the 2025 Orioles offense underperformed. For all the talent on the roster, which helped the team win 192 games from 2023-24, things did not gel. None of us knows exactly why both the vibes and the performance were lackluster, but I know one thing that would help: Kyle Schwarber. Look, I’m […]
