The Orioles kicked off a crucial nine-game road trip with a blowout 13-1 win over the hosting Cardinals on Tuesday night. Pete Alonso paced the lineup before he left the game with a flare up of his calf injury. O’s starter Chris Bassitt turned in a solid 6.2 innings before Anthony Nunez over-powered the opposing […]
Tuesday night was an opportunity for the St. Louis Cardinals to rebound from a profoundly disappointing end to the road trip returning home from Philadelphia, but would they? Much of that would depend on which version of Matthew Liberatore took the mound for the Cardinals. The answer is not the one most Cardinals fans were […]
The St. Louis Cardinals return home for a brief homestand starting Tuesday night as they play host to the Baltimore Orioles. According to MLB.com, the Orioles will start RHP Chris Bassett. MLB.com confirms it will be Matthew Liberatore starting for the Cardinals. First pitch scheduled for 6:45pm central time and the game broadcast will be […]
If the Orioles are going to make a push for the playoffs in this final month or so of the season, they are gonna have to win a bunch of games. That means beating solid teams like these Cardinals on the road. It’s not gonna be easy. It’s a left-handed starter on the mound for […]
ST. LOUIS—Orioles outfielder Tyler O’Neill is out of the lineup for the second straight day because of right shoulder soreness. He injured the shoulder making a diving catch on Richie Palacios’ sinking line drive to end the ninth inning on Saturday night. “We were hoping that he’d be fine for today,” manager Craig Albernaz said. […]
Baltimore Orioles infielder Jackson Holliday has built several meaningful relationships around baseball, which could prove vital in trade talks.
As we head into the last week of August, the Orioles remain what they’ve been all year, a maddeningly inconsistent outfit whose offense is capable of simply switching off at inconvenient times, and whose defense is prone to make stupid errors just when the game is on the line. And yet, they’re still not out […]
With 31 games left to go in the season, the Orioles are in a weird spot. After the Guardians win last night, Baltimore finds itself 2.5 games back of the final AL Wild Card spot with just over a month of baseball left to play. It’s far from an insurmountable deficit; the O’s have nine […]
Acquired in the Adley Rutschman deal, he has a 1.58 ERA over 19 games
Happy Tuesday, Camden Chatters! After an off-day yesterday, the Orioles will be back in action tonight. They kick off a nine-game, three-city road trip against three teams a playoff team should be able to beat: the St. Louis Cardinals, Sacramento Athletics, and Colorado Rockies. The Cardinals have a .500 record, while the A’s and Rockies […]
Albert Suarez and the Baltimore Orioles are running through the same unusual routine again. The right-hander cleared outright waivers and elected free agency rather than accept an assignment to Triple-A Norfolk, the Orioles announced. It's the second time this year Suarez has gone through this exact sequence, and the fourth time he's been designated for assignment by Baltimore in 2026 alone.
A Season Built Entirely On This Cycle
The pattern has repeated itself with almost comic regul...
In July 2025, the Orioles received six players from the San Diego Padres in the trade that sent Ryan O’Hearn and Ramón Laureano to the Padres. While one of those players, utilityman Brandon Butterworth, has moved up to Triple-A Norfolk, and another, first baseman Victor Figueroa, has hit 25 home runs for High-A Frederick and […]
Question: If the Orioles hadn’t traded Taylor Ward, Adley Rutschman and Tyler Wells, they would be sitting comfortably in the third wild-card spot. Instead, we have Christian Franklin, Carlos Narváez, and Alex Hoppe. What’s your opinion? From: Marc Goodman Answer: Marc, the Orioles are 9-10 since the trade deadline. I predicted the Orioles wouldn’t trade […]
The St. Louis Cardinals will be able to enjoy a brief stint of home cooking as they’ll kick off a 2-series homestand Tuesday night as the Baltimore Orioles arrive in town. Both teams are in a similar situation with both still in the running for a Wild Card spot. The Cardinals, however, are reeling after […]
The Yankees are hitting their stride at a crucial point of the season, cutting the deficit in the AL East race to just three games after sweeping Baltimore and taking two of three from Toronto. The offense that was so stagnant for much of the summer has been rejuvenated of late, thanks to a combo […]
The Orioles announced that right-hander Albert Suárez elected free agency in lieu of accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Norfolk. That indicates he cleared waivers after being designated for assignment last week and has now exercised his right to head to the open market. Though Suárez is now a free agent, it wouldn’t be a […]
There must be something in the water when the Tampa Bay Rays and Baltimore Orioles face off that always seems to end with an Orioles victory. For the fourth straight season, Baltimore clinched the season series against Tampa Bay. They got off to a great start on Friday, using a three-run fifth inning and a […]

The Baltimore Orioles could get a big boost to their AL Wild Card chances.
All season long, the Orioles have tread water. Their win-loss record has never gotten better than two games above .500 (on April 13) or worse than nine games under .500 (July 8). That type of mediocre form has been enough to keep them in the conversation for a playoff spot, but with just a month […]
Good morning, Camden Chatters. Stop me if you’ve heard this before: the Orioles lost because they couldn’t score any runs for Shane Baz. It’s becoming a running joke, although not a very funny one. When Baz is on the mound, absolutely everything seems to go wrong for the Orioles, and through very little fault of […]
BALTIMORE—Hitting coach Dustin Lind, who’s completing his first season with the Orioles, spoke about four prominent players before Sunday’s 3-1 loss to the Rays. Before coming to the Orioles, Lind was assistant hitting coach with the Philadelphia Phillies. Pete Alonso “I’ve seen a lot of it when I was in Philadelphia, unfortunately against us, but […]
Question: Thank you for the poignant tribute to Trey Mancini. I had forgotten what a standup guy he is. Wish we could always have a few players and classy guys like him active on the team. Speaking of that, how might we convince Orioles management to sign him to a one-day contract so he could […]
Felix Bautista threw 22 pitches today with Double-A Chesapeake, allowing a hit and three walks while retiring just one of five batters faced in the first game of his minor league rehab assignment. Michael Howes of the Baltimore Sun was among those to report that the right-hander averaged 95.1mph on his fastball, hitting 97mph with […]
BALTIMORE—The Orioles survived a difficult 10-game stretch against the Tampa Bay Rays and New York Yankees, splitting those 10 games. All five of the wins were against Tampa Bay, but on Sunday, the Orioles were unable, again, to help starting pitcher Shane Baz, managing just two hits in a 3-1 loss to the Rays before […]
