Another rough night on the mound as O's lose series opener

Another rough night on the mound as O's lose series opener
The switching back to the east coast tonight did not do a thing to help Orioles pitching. After the hurlers struggled, giving up 59 runs during a 1-6 west coast trip, the O's fell behind big early tonight. They were down 5-2 at the end of three and 7-2 at the end of the fourth in the opener of the two-game series with San Diego. They lost 8-3 in the first of a five-game homestand. The Orioles (22-57) have lost 12 of 13, 16 of 19 and 28 of their last 35 games. They are 9-29 at Oriole Park, 7-19...

O's game blog: O's host Manny Machado and the San Diego Padres
With a 1-6 west coast trip in their rear-view mirror, the Orioles begin a two-team, five-game homestand tonight. They'll host former Oriole Manny Machado and the San Diego Padres tonight and tomorrow afternoon. Cleveland comes to Baltimore this weekend. The Orioles are 22-56 overall and 9-28 at home. They have lost 11 of 12, 15 of 18 and 19 of their last 24 games. The Orioles are 0-16-1 over their past 17 series. Third baseman Hanser Alberto is batting .338 (26-for-77) in 19 June games and his...

Adley Rutschman will begin his pro career in the Gulf Coast League

Adley Rutschman will begin his pro career in the Gulf Coast League
In introducing Adley Rutschman today, the top pick in the 2019 First-Year Player Draft, Orioles executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias said Rutschman would begin his pro career in the rookie-level Gulf Coast League and then move on to short season Single-A Aberdeen. "He's won a lot of awards this summer for his accomplishments in college and he's got a few more," Elias said at today's press conference at Camden Yards. "Then we'll send him to our spring training facility...

Trying to answer a few Adley Rutschman questions

Trying to answer a few Adley Rutschman questions
It was a banner Monday for Orioles' draft pick signings as they officially announced the signing of Oregon State catcher Adley Rutschman, who they took with the first pick in the first round. We also learned that they've agreed to terms with second-round pick, high school shortstop Gunnar Henderson from Selma, Ala. All along the confidence level from the organization was high that they'd get these picks. The process played out and the job got done. MLBPipeline.com's Jim Callis reported that...

O's Rule 5 shortstop learning at major league level (Henderson and Rutschman update)

O's Rule 5 shortstop learning at major league level (Henderson and Rutschman update)
SEATTLE - He didn't have a highlight game, going 0-4 with two double plays and two strikeouts on Sunday, but shortstop Richie Martin made a highlight-reel defensive play here on Saturday. He dove in the hole to glove a ball and made a strong throw from the outfield grass to gun down former Oriole Tim Beckham in the fifth inning. It was one of the best defensive plays of the year by any Oriole. By now, it's pretty clear the Rule 5 pick in December from Oakland has a plus glove and plus arm....

Ynoa knocked out early, O's blown out in trip finale (quotes added)

Ynoa knocked out early, O's blown out in trip finale (quotes added)
SEATTLE - The Orioles began today seeking their first two-game win streak in a long time and a series split to end this trip on a good note. When they scored single runs in the first and second innings, that looked possible. By the end of the third, it was very doubtful. The Mariners scored eight runs in the last of the third, batting 13 men to break a 2-2 tie on their way to a 13-3 romp over the Orioles. Baltimore falls to 22-56 and has lost 11 of 12, 15 of 18 and 27 of its last 34 games. The...

O's still expect Means to return next weekend (game update)

O's still expect Means to return next weekend (game update)
SEATTLE - Orioles left-handed starter John Means remains on track to be activated off the injured list and rejoin the rotation during the series against the Indians that begins June 28 at Oriole Park. Means, who is 6-4 with a 2.67 ERA, has been on the IL since Thursday with a left shoulder strain. "He played catch today and felt good," said manager Brandon Hyde. Means will need to throw at least one bullpen session before he gets back on the mound in a game. Hyde said the concern level on...

Orioles lineup for series finale (Straily to Norfolk)

Orioles lineup for series finale (Straily to Norfolk)
SEATTLE - Hanser Alberto will lead off and Trey Mancini is back in the lineup for the second straight day after missing two games. The Orioles will try to end their seven-game road trip to Oakland and Seattle with a win today. The Orioles (22-55) won 8-4 yesterday as Jonathan Villar hit a three-run homer and Anthony Santander added a two-run homer. After scoring just nine runs in the first four games of their road trip, the Orioles have now scored 17 in the last two games. Pedro Severino,...

O's game blog: Trying to end a road trip on a high note
SEATTLE - With one negative stat erased - a 10-game losing streak - maybe the Orioles can put an end to a few others today. If they beat the Mariners at T-Mobile Park, they will have their first two-game wining streak since May 4-6. Since then they have had eight cracks at a two-game win streak coming up short each time. They would also split this four-game series, ending a stretch of nine straight series road losses. The Orioles are 22-55 overall and 13-27 on the road. Saturday's 8-4 win...

Yacabonis tries to get on a roll, throwback jerseys and other notes

Yacabonis tries to get on a roll, throwback jerseys and other notes
SEATTLE - As the Orioles look for someone - anyone - in their bullpen to put some consistent outings together, maybe right-hander Jimmy Yacabonis is in the early stages of doing that. He struck out the side in the seventh inning of Saturday's 8-4 win over Seattle that ended a 10-game losing streak and manager Brandon Hyde called his performance "huge." Yacabonis' third stint with the 2019 Orioles began when he was recalled from Triple-A a week ago yesterday. In four games since, he's...

The losing streak ends at 10 as O's beat Seattle 8-4 (updated)

The losing streak ends at 10 as O's beat Seattle 8-4 (updated)
SEATTLE - The 1969 Orioles would not have approved of a 10-game losing streak. So, on a day the Orioles and Seattle Mariners wore 1969 throwback jerseys, the O's threw their streak back. It ended at 10 games today as they used a solid starting pitching outing and two homers to beat the Mariners 8-4. Seattle was celebrating the year Major League Baseball came to town, although the 1969 Pilots played here just one year before moving to Milwaukee. The 1969 Orioles won a club-record 109 games...

Mancini returns to Orioles lineup today (O's win 8-4)

Mancini returns to Orioles lineup today (O's win 8-4)
SEATTLE - The Orioles get their best hitter back in the lineup today. Trey Mancini, hitting .304/.361/.558, is batting second and playing first base today at Seattle. Mancini has been out since getting plunked on the left elbow in the first inning Wednesday afternoon at Oakland. He suffered a contusion and sat out the last two games. "I think he's still a little sore but he really wants to get back in there," said manager Brandon Hyde. "Talked this morning. He's excited to play, so he's...

O's add Matt Wotherspoon to the bullpen (today's lineup)
SEATTLE - The Orioles' bullpen shuffle keeps churning. After last night's game lefty Sean Gilmartin, who was the starting pitcher, was optioned back to Triple-A Norfolk. Today the Orioles have selected the contract of 27-year-old right-hander Matt Wotherspoon. He is joining the club for the second time this year. Wotherspoon was added to the roster April 3 in Toronto and optioned out the next day. On April 6 he was outrighted back to Norfolk. He made his major league debut April 3 at Rogers...

O's game blog: Is today the day to end the streak?
SEATTLE - During a 10-game losing streak, the Orioles have lost four times by two runs or one, the latest last night's 10-9 loss at Seattle. The O's 10-game streak matches the longest in the majors this year. Kansas City lost 10 in a row from March 31-April 11, and Detroit lost 10 in a row from May 13-23. The 1958 Orioles lost 11 straight between July 27 and Aug. 8, and the club has had losing streaks of 12 or more just six times in its history. At 21-55, the Orioles are 12-27 on the road....

Snakebit or encouraging after latest O's loss?

Snakebit or encouraging after latest O's loss?
SEATTLE - At this point, should the Orioles feel encouraged about their comeback last night or snakebit that it fell short and they lost again? The losing streak reached 10 when the Mariners beat the Orioles 10-9 Friday night at T-Mobile Park. But what was headed for a blowout loss with the Orioles down 10-3 after five became a one-run game by the seventh inning. Would the Orioles end a long losing streak with a stirring comeback? The answer would be no, but at least the offense, at least for...

O's rally falls one run short, losing streak reaches 10 (with quotes)

O's rally falls one run short, losing streak reaches 10 (with quotes)
SEATTLE - Well this was a unique way to lose a game and stretch a losing streak to 10, but the Orioles did it. Fall behind big, rally big, come up just short. Frustrating indeed as they lost 10-9 at Seattle after trailing 10-3 after five innings. This time it did not come apart for the Orioles in the middle innings. It happened by the end of the home third. Their rally in the sixth and seventh was impressive but it did not produce a stirring comeback win, rather just yet another frustrating...

Kline and Scott return in the O's bullpen shuffle (game update)
SEATTLE - In just the last week or so the Orioles pitching staff has seen Josh Rogers join the team again along with Jimmy Yacabonis and Sean Gilmartin. Today Branden Kline and Tanner Scott returned. Among those headed out to Triple-A Norfolk were Paul Fry and Evan Phillips to join David Hess. Josh Lucas went on the injured list. It's recently been a continuing shuffle for a bullpen that has an ERA of 10.70 during a nine-game losing streak. But in bringing back Kline and Scott today the...

Trying to reverse the losing (Scott and Kline recalled, plus notes)
SEATTLE - It is kind of a cycle the Orioles can't seem to get out of right now. At some point, all the losing was bound to take a toll on everyone in Birdland - and that includes the players. We have reached that point. The losing streak has reached nine and the longest of the year in the majors by any team is 10. Can the O's win tonight to avoid that? It will be tough. When John Means went to the injured list yesterday, that meant the Orioles were going to use a bullpen game tonight. Those...

O's game blog: Looking for a win on this road trip
SEATTLE - So the Orioles are due for a win. Will tonight be the night? They play the Seattle Mariners in Game 2 of a four-game set at T-Mobile Park. Going into last night's series opener Seattle (33-46) had gone 33 games without winning two in a row, but that run ended with their 5-2 victory Thursday night. The Orioles have the longest run in the majors this year without back-to-back wins, a current streak of 40 straight games dating to May 4-6. The Orioles (21-54) have now lost nine straight...
