Orioles news: Now officially worse than last year’s team
Hello, friends. The Orioles have just passed a grim milestone. They now have a worse record than the team did through the same number of games last year. Even as pessimistic as I was about these jokers, I did not imagine this was a likely outcome. Here they are anyway. Last year’s Orioles were 43-50. […]
Orioles rally falls short in 9-7 loss to Cubs
The Orioles entered this homestand in need of a series win to keep their slim playoff chances afloat. Baltimore dropped the opener on Tuesday, and the team continued to spiral out of contention tonight. Pete Alonso gave the Orioles an early two-run lead, but Dean Kremer allowed three home runs in the fifth inning. Chicago […]
Wednesday night Orioles game thread: vs. Cubs, 6:35
The Orioles will look to get back in the win column with Dean Kremer on the mound tonight against the Cubs. Baltimore will face right-handed starter Colin Rea after struggling last night against lefty Matthew Boyd. Gunnar Henderson will be back in the leadoff spot tonight with Taylor Ward batting third. Adley Rutschman will bat […]
The Orioles need Colton Cowser and Dylan Beavers to take another step forward
One way or another, the Orioles are going to decide whether they are buyers or sellers by the end of this month. Perhaps they will come to the conclusion that many of you have already reached, or maybe Mike Elias will double down on this team’s diminishing playoff odds. Either way, the decision will not […]
Orioles minor league recap 7/8: Keys score walk-off win in 11 innings
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides vs. Syracuse Mets (PPD.—rain) The Tides and Mets were rained out Tuesday and will make up the game as a doubleheader later today. Double-A: Chesapeake Baysox 2, Akron RubberDucks 1 (F/10) The Baysox tied the game in the 8th and pushed across the winning run in the 10th to score a come-from-behind […]
Orioles news: O’s fall to bottom of AL East with loss
Good morning Birdland, It’s tough to win a game in which you have zero extra base hits and go just 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position. The Orioles proved that on Tuesday night as they lost 5-2 to the visiting Cubs. Andrea SK recapped the action for us, in case you missed it. If you’ve […]
Orioles can’t do much against Cubs lefty Matthew Boyd, fall 5-2
So, it turns out the Cubs are no slouches after all. And though it’s their offense that’s supposed to be a team strength, today the Most Cub-Like Player had to have been the starter, Matthew Boyd. The lefty hounded the Orioles all night, the way you thought a crafty lefty might. Through six innings, Baltimore […]
Tuesday evening Orioles game thread: vs. Cubs, 6:35 ET
The O’s are 4-6 in their last ten games, as the elusive four-game win streak seems no easier to come by than before. Over their last three series, Baltimore dropped two of three to the Nationals and the White Sox before trying, and failing, to complete the sweep this weekend against Cincinnati. Against a 50-40 […]

Orioles vs. Cubs series preview: A heavy-hitting Chicago
It’s been impossible for the Orioles to sustain genuine momentum this season, and … I’m not sure this series, involving three home games against the Chicago Cubs, is going to be the one that does it. The Cubs come to Camden Yards in second place in the NL Central, six games back of a red-hot […]
How do the Orioles get more Blaze Alexanders?
A poll of Birdland would likely show that Pete Alonso has been the Orioles’ most impactful off-season addition this year. But likely second in that survey would be bench-utility-player-turned-every-day-starter Blaze Alexander. Quantifying just how big an impact Alexander has had on the 2026 Orioles is hard to do, given the unexpected nature of his rise […]
Orioles minor league weekly recap: Dzierwa leads impressive Baysox pitching staff
As is our Tuesday tradition here at Camden Chat, it’s time for our recap of the last six days of minor league baseball, with a particular focus on Camden Chat’s top 20 Orioles prospects. Triple-A Norfolk Tides The second half started only two weeks ago and the Tides are already a distant last place in their […]
Orioles news: Prepping for the draft, looking back to 2025
Happy Tuesday, Camden Chatters! I hope you enjoyed your day off from the Orioles as they traveled home from Cincinnati ahead of this week’s homestand. They weirdly had both Thursday and Monday off surrounding their short road trip to Ohio, so it feels like the Orioles have barely played lately. That’s the thing about a […]
Trevor Rogers will be the Orioles most important player in the month of July
For now, the Orioles are posturing as “buyers” with the August 3rd trade deadline looming. A younger version of Mike Elias may have scoffed at the idea of a sub-.500 squad going all in on their season, but times have changed. The Orioles were aggressive this past offseason, and there is pressure to win. Add […]
Orioles minor league recap 7/6: Baysox, Shorebirds both throw shutouts
Triple-A: Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (Yankees) 5, Norfolk Tides 2 — 7 inn. The Tides and RailRiders were supposed to play a doubleheader, but only one game got played before rain swept through again to wash out the finale. The opener was going pretty well for the Tides, who carried a 2-1 lead into the bottom of […]
Orioles news: The O’s again failed to win four in a row
Good morning, Camden Chatters. Well, it happened again. For the seventh time this season, the Orioles had a chance to win four games in a row. And for the seventh time this season, they failed. The Birds’ bats went silent as they dropped the series finale to the Reds, 3-2, to fall back to seven […]
Orioles fail to sweep Reds, drop finale 3-2
The Baltimore bats couldn’t deliver in the clutch, and a strong Kyle Bradish start went to waste, as the O’s dropped their series finale in Cincinnati 3-2. The O’s came into the bottom of the 9th trailing 3-1 after struggling to get their bats going all afternoon. The pinch-hitting Dylan Beavers worked a leadoff walk […]

Orioles news: Adley Rutschman is an All-Star
Good morning, Camden Chatters. It’s not something that happens often, but last night was a good night to be an Orioles fan. The O’s took care of business on the field with their second straight win in Cincinnati, roughing up Hunter Greene en route to an 8-5 victory. Check out my recap of the action, […]
Orioles’ offense puts on fireworks show in Independence Day win, 8-5
On America’s 250th birthday, the Orioles celebrated in style. The Birds’ bats dazzled with some early fireworks, roughing up Reds fireballer Hunter Greene for eight runs in the first four innings, and the O’s held the line from there for an 8-5 victory in Cincinnati. Brandon Young struggled early but hung in to earn his […]
Independence Day Orioles game thread: at Reds, 7:10
Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world, and you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. “Mankind” — that word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will […]
Orioles minor league recap 7/4: Baysox and Keys win with late comebacks
Triple-A: Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RoughRiders (Yankees) 3, Norfolk Tides 2 A low-scoring affair saw the RoughRiders break a 2-2 tie in the seventh with a run against Enoli Paredes and hold on to defeat a lackluster Tides lineup. No Norfolk batter had more than one hit, managing only five in total, all singles. José Barrero drove in […]
Orioles news: Orioles open July with two big wins
Good morning Birdland, Orioles pitchers have allowed one total run over their last 18 innings. That’s good! Trevor Rogers has allowed one total run over his last 18.1 innings, which included five scoreless in the O’s 3-0 win over the Reds on Friday night. The lefty’s ERA has dipped from a season-worst 6.96 on May […]
