Orioles Have Discussed Jackson Holliday, Colton Cowser In Trade Talks

The Orioles’ trade deadline direction is still up in the air with less than a week to go. Baltimore sits on a disappointing 52-55 record, burying them 11 games behind the division-leading Rays but leaving them just two games out in the AL Wild Card chase. They’re facing a similarly disappointing Tigers club right now […]

Squirrel Leads Detroit Grounds Crew On Merry Chase

On Monday the visiting Baltimore Orioles beat the Detroit Tigers by a score of something to something. This is not important. What is important is that there was a squirrel. With a squirrel's innate mischievousness and ability to completely derail whatever else is going on, the Detroit squirrel spent a couple of innings exploring increasingly precarious locations around the diamond, before a phalanx of grounds crew members and one visiting outfielder were dispatched to remove it from the pr...

Orioles news: The O’s aren’t out of it yet

Good morning, Camden Chatters. The Orioles have less than a week to decide whether they’ll be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline. Their two series before that Aug. 3 date, a three-game trip to Detroit and three at home against the Phillies, could be critically important for deciding the near-term direction of the club. […]

Tigers seek a series-evening win against the Orioles on Tuesday

The Detroit Tigers opened up the back leg of their current homestand with an 8-5 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Monday night. Keider Montero was far from his usual self, surrendering six runs in four-plus innings, while the offense just did not have enough to dig out of the hole. Taking the mound in […]

Orioles’ bullpen continues to shine in crucial spots

The Orioles’ 8-5 win over the Detroit Tigers on Monday night was important. Every game they’re playing this week is important. The trade deadline is August 3rd at 6 p.m., and the Orioles must be a true contender in order for them to be aggressive at the deadline. There are five games remaining between now […]

Should the Orioles have re-signed Ryan O’Hearn? | MAILBAG

Question: The trade of Ryan O’Hearn to the Padres at the trade deadline in 2025 looks worse and worse. And I don’t believe that any of the players we got in exchange for him and Ramón Laureano are doing anything in our system. How terrific would his bat look in this lineup? From: Stacey Kagan […]

Bats, bullpen lead Orioles to 8-5 win in Detroit

The Orioles, fresh off a disappointing weekend series, hoped Kyle Bradish could play stopper this evening. Baltimore’s starter dealt with some uncharacteristic struggles, but the bats and bullpen picked him up in an 8-5 win over the Tigers. The Birds jumped ahead by scoring in each of the first three innings. Pete Alonso punched a […]

Tigers drop O’s series opener with disappointing Montero start

Not an ideal outcome to the series opener against the Orioles as the Tigers lost 8-5. But hey, there was wildlife! After losing their last two games over the weekend to the Royals, the Tigers really needed to win some games. Unfortunately, they were facing off against the Orioles, a sub-.500 team struggling in the […]

Tigers Place Kerry Carpenter On Injured List

The Tigers placed designated hitter/outfielder Kerry Carpenter on the 10-day injured list before tonight’s game against the Orioles. Rookie outfielder Eduardo Valencia was recalled from Triple-A Toledo to replace him on the active roster. Carpenter is dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot. He’d been day-to-day for the past week with what the team initially […]

Orioles’ Bassitt, Mountcastle to begin rehab assignments; Rodriguez traded to Pirates

Orioles manager Craig Albernaz told reporters in Detroit before Monday night’s game that starting pitcher Chris Bassitt and first baseman/designated hitter Ryan Mountcastle will begin rehab assignments with Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday. Bassitt, who had back surgery, and Mountcastle, who fractured his left foot in April, are both on the 60-day injured list. Pitchers are […]

Monday night Orioles game thread: at Tigers, 6:40

Jackson Holliday will bat sixth and play shortstop tonight as the Orioles look to get back in the win column against Detroit. Gunnar Henderson will bat third and serve as the designated hitter. Coby Mayo will get the start at third base against right-handed pitcher Keider Montero, and Jeremiah Jackson will play second. Leadoff hitter […]

Orioles Designate Sam Huff For Assignment

The Orioles have designated catcher Sam Huff for assignment, per a team announcement. Fellow catcher Yohel Pozo, whom they claimed off waivers from the Cardinals last week, has been recalled to take his spot on the roster. Huff, 28, appeared in 14 games with Baltimore but has slashed just .121/.147/.182 in 34 plate appearances. He’s […]

Orioles-Tigers series preview: Battle on the wild card fringe

Time is running out for teams like the Orioles to decide which way they’re going to go at the trade deadline. This year’s deadline is a little later than usual, arriving one week from today. They will be playing six games between now and then, including these next three against another team that’s got a […]

Podcast: Hope about the Orioles has turned tragic

The thing about the 2026 Orioles is that they can always manage to fool you for a little while into believing that they might be able to turn things around. The best version of this team really is good enough. Mike Elias wasn’t wrong to assess that. The problem, as was unfortunately demonstrated in increasingly […]

The Orioles have to do something about their current catching situation

Sam Huff was the final out of both Orioles losses over the weekend. How little did the Braves fear Huff’s bat? On Sunday, they intentionally walked the bases loaded, putting the winning run into scoring position, so that they could face Huff instead of Jackson Holliday. Huff is batting just .121 as a big leaguer […]

Orioles minor league recap 7/27: Kjerstad homers twice in Charlotte

Triple-A: Charlotte Knights (White Sox) 7, Norfolk Tides 4 The Tides fell to Charlotte on Sunday, as starter Trace Bright and a stable of relievers—Dietrich Enns, Cameron Weston and Enoli Paredes—allowed a combined seven runs on ten hits, three of them home runs (one by Knights’ outfielder and former Oriole Austin Hays). Bright’s four runs allowed […]

Orioles news: Another lost series

Happy Monday, Camden Chatters. It wasn’t a great weekend to be an Orioles fan, I have to say. The Orioles lost two out of three to the Braves in what felt like it could have been a series sweep (either way, honestly). Every game was exciting, I’ll give them that. But ultimately it was just […]

Orioles need wins to win over disappointed fanbase

Everywhere I turn on social media, I read comments from friends who are disheartened with the current version of the Orioles. Many of them say that they find this team the most difficult to like of any Orioles team. That’s an interesting comment because individually it’s one of the more likable teams in recent years. […]
