Recent moves give pinch-hitting Orioles even more options
The Orioles have not overwhelmed teams with their offensive firepower, but the team keeps finding ways to win games. Pete Alonso has generated some AL MVP chatter, and Coby Mayo looks like Barry Bonds against lefties, but the majority of the lineup has provided inconsistent production this season. So how does a team filled with […]
Orioles minor league recap 9/2: Bradfield Jr. tallies three hits in Tides win
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 9, Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp 3 The Tides scored five runs in the 6th inning to propel them to a series-opening victory over the Jumbo Shrimp. Norfolk came into the bottom of the 6th down 3-2, having scored two runs on a pair of doubles by Bryan Ramos and Enrique Bradfield Jr. in […]
Orioles news: De León debuts, O’s win streak ends
Good morning Birdland, Being a .500 team was cool while it lasted! The Orioles dipped right back to a losing record with their 4-2 loss on Tuesday night in Denver. Kyle Bradish labored, only getting through five mediocre innings. Luis De León debuted out of the bullpen and gave up a two-run homer, which proved […]
Orioles suffer sloppy loss to Rockies, fall back below .500
I’m old enough to remember when the Orioles had a .500 record. Those were good times. The O’s couldn’t keep up the momentum of their series opener, dropping the second game to the Rockies, 4-2. Newly promoted Luis De León, making his major league debut, coughed up a tie-breaking two-run homer in the seventh after […]
Orioles vs. Rockies discussion
By gum, they’ve done it. The Orioles are a .500 team again. Now why don’t we see how much farther this ride can take us? The O’s got back to the even-water mark last night in the most thrilling way possible, on Colton Cowser’s unbelievable, gravity-defying, home run robbery that turned a certain walkoff loss […]
Orioles reportedly adding Heston Kjerstad, Luis De León as rosters expand
September 1 means roster expansion in Major League Baseball. Gone are the days where teams could call up as many players as they could fit onto the roster and into the dugout and bullpen. The Orioles and every other team now gets one extra position player and one extra pitcher to create a 28-man roster […]
What could be the biggest problem for the Orioles in the playoff chase?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Orioles fans and fans across the country. The Orioles have finally done it. They’re back up to a .500 record thanks to last night’s late-night home run robbery by Colton Cowser that turned […]
Can Pete Alonso win the AL MVP?
This past offseason, Pete Alonso signed the richest deal in Orioles history, trading Queens for Baltimore and a deal for $155M/five years. Through the 138 games of Alonso’s Orioles career, you could argue the Polar Bear has been underpaid. Alonso has undoubtedly been the heartbeat of an Orioles team that, after last night’s win in […]
This week in the Orioles minors: Baysox, Keys continue late surges
As the minor league seasons start to wind down — with one week left for Low- and High-A, two weeks remaining for Double-A, and three for Triple-A — the Orioles’ four affiliates can clearly be delineated into the haves and the have-nots. The Frederick Keys and Chesapeake Baysox are surging, with the former headed to […]

Orioles news: O’s claim Luis Robert on waivers from Mets
Happy Tuesday, Camden Chatters. We made it to September! The Orioles are still out west for the last few games of their long road trip. I personally find this stretch of games to be a touch on the ridiculous side. After an off-day on Monday, August 24th, the Orioles traveled to St. Louis. That kicked […]
Cowser’s home run robbery seals rain-delayed win in Colorado, 2-1
It’s just one of those things, I guess. The Orioles are playing some of their best ball of the season. The offense has been hot lately. They’ve been dispatching competitive teams, and moving up in the Wild Card chase. And so of course they’d travel to the thin air of Denver, where they’d face the […]
Orioles vs. Rockies discussion
Folks, Orioles baseball is getting quite interesting of late. The Birds have been playing capable, credible baseball, and now they’re within one game of the last Wild Card. The offense is, maybe not humming, but it’s providing thump and interest. And lots of power: the Orioles have 31 home runs in their last 18 games. […]
Orioles-Rockies series preview: Stay hot against MLB’s worst team
There are 25 games remaining to the Orioles and they get to play the next three of them against the team with the worst record in all of MLB. That’s the Colorado Rockies, a team that has been down and out for quite some time. They haven’t had a winning season from 2019 to the […]
Podcast: The Orioles are taking care of business
The strange journey of the 2026 Orioles season continues, now with the team just one game back of .500 for the first time since the end of April. A whole lot of baseball has happened between now and then. A lot of that baseball was bad in May and June. Things have gone a bit […]
The Orioles are finally acting like a playoff team
With their 8-5 win over the Athletics on Sunday afternoon, the Orioles improved to just one game under .500 for the first time since April 30. The four months in between have included a tumble down the standings, a roster sell-off, and now a renaissance on the field. It remains to be seen whether the […]
Orioles minor league recap 8/31: Butterworth homers, Bautista gets a win in rehab outing
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 7, Durham Bulls (TBR) 4 Well, isn’t that a sight for sore eyes: Félix Bautista in the box score, earning a W. The Mountain, still rehabbing his throwing arm since undergoing rotator cuff and labrum surgery in fall 2025, threw an unimpeachable sixth inning that saw him allow a single and strike […]
Orioles news: O’s sweep A’s, pull within a game of .500
Good morning, Camden Chatters. The Orioles, for all their trials and tribulations throughout this 2026 campaign, are on the brink of being a .500 team again. The Birds’ sweep in Sacramento has pushed them to a 68-69 record, the first time since April 30 that they’ve been within a game of .500. On six other […]
Henderson, Mayo power Orioles to 8-5 comeback win
Baltimore entered today’s matchup with the Athletics looking for a three-game sweep, but it felt like the team would be forced to settle for a series win after Chris Bassitt allowed five runs in the first three frames. The Orioles lose this game in April. They probably lose it in May, June and July too. […]
Orioles vs. Athletics discussion
The Orioles have an opportunity to sweep the Athletics today with Chris Bassitt on the mound. Baltimore managed a pair of close victories over the struggling A’s on Friday and Saturday. The team will look to build some momentum with a convincing result this afternoon. Blaze Alexander is back atop the lineup and will play […]
Orioles minor league recap 8/30: Kjerstad has three hits in Norfolk loss
Triple-A: Durham Bulls (TBR) 4, Norfolk Tides 0 Starting pitcher Michael Forret started off shaky but finished strong. He walked the bases loaded in the first and escaped with just a sacrifice fly. After a double and another walk in the second, he gave up another sac fly to make the score 2-0. Heston Kjerstad […]
Orioles news: Wild card standings, Basallo struggles
Hello, friends. The Orioles have managed to creep closer to a wild card spot yet again. Thanks to losses by the Guardians and Rangers yesterday and the O’s holding on to take down the Athletics, the team is now just a game back of the third wild card, with only Cleveland standing between the Orioles […]
Orioles score early, hold off Athletics for Baz’s first win since June, 5-3
As we head into the final month of the season, this year’s past frustrations are just that, past. For all their flaws in construction and execution, the Orioles now have the chance to seize control of their playoff destiny, stack some wins, and grab the third and final Wild Card spot for good. Today, they […]
Saturday night Orioles game thread: @ Athletics, 10:05 ET
Happy Saturday, folks! Hope you’re having a nice weekend. If you decide to spend it watching late-night West Coast baseball, I hope the Orioles grace you with a series win tonight. They snatched a win in Game One last night with a 4-3 victory in ten innings. Although Brandon Young pitched a strong seven innings, […]
Orioles minor league recap 8/29: Honeycutt delivers game-winning homer
Triple-A: Durham (Rays) 7, Norfolk Tides 0 The Tides mustered a whopping three hits and one walk in this game. That’s a tough way to win. Enrique Bradfield Jr., Creed Willems, and Brandon Butterworth all took 0-fors in the game. Heston Kjerstad pinch hit in the ninth inning and hit a double. He’s OPSing .790 […]
