Dylan Bundy talks about his comeback and joining the IronBirds

Dylan Bundy talks about his comeback and joining the IronBirds
ABERDEEN, Md. - As the one-year anniversary of his Tommy John surgery approaches, Dylan Bundy's comeback is about to take a significant step forward when he pitches for short-season, Single-A Aberdeen on Sunday at Hudson Valley. After pitching in several games in Florida at extended spring training, Bundy is about to pitch in a game that counts for the first time since Sept. 25, 2012 when he threw a scoreless inning for the Orioles against Toronto. He had hoped to make it to a minor league...

Chen on his outing, Davis on his bat after O's beat Boston
Wei-Yin Chen went seven innings for the third time this season tonight. For the first time, he did not allow any runs as the Orioles beat Boston 6-0. Now 7-2 with an ERA of 3.76, Chen gave up just four singles in his 87-pitch outing. "I felt great out there pitching," Chen said through his interpreter. "I was glad to help the team get a win. In previous outings, I could not go deep in the game, but today I was able to do that. I'm happy about that, especially against the Red Sox. I gained...

Kevin Gausman got some major props for recent outing against Oakland

Kevin Gausman got some major props for recent outing against Oakland
Kevin Gausman's best start as a major league pitcher was last Saturday night against Oakland. Now he'll try to do that two times in a row. Gausman went seven innings, allowing just four hits and one run against the A's. He walked one, fanned six and threw 102 pitches. After Sunday's game he got a great compliment from the Oakland clubhouse. The A's are one of the American League's highest scoring teams and Branden Moss is one of their middle of the order hitters. "That guy, I got to...

O's game blog: Orioles have not fared well in series-deciding games

O's game blog: Orioles have not fared well in series-deciding games
Tonight, the Orioles play another rubber match. The Orioles have not fared well in such games this year. They are 2-6 and have lost four straight series-deciding games. It started in the first series against Boston when they lost Game 3 4-3 and continued through Sunday in an 11-1 loss to Oakland. Meanwhile, the Orioles offense has slowed again. They've scored just five runs the last three games and just 14 runs with a .221 team batting average during the five games of this homestand so...

Jim Presley on Chris Davis, Ryan Webb on his solid season

Jim Presley on Chris Davis, Ryan Webb on his solid season
It was about three weeks ago when Chris Davis hit three home runs in Pittsburgh. A couple of days later, he homered and knocked in four runs. But now he is struggling again. Davis went 0-for-3 with three strikeouts last night. Over his last 14 games, he's batting .164 (9-for-55) with 24 strikeouts. Is it a timing issue? O's hitting coach Jim Presley doesn't think so. "No, It's his bat angle," Presley said. "He's crossing over. We're trying to get him to get on top of the ball a...

Johan Santana won't pitch for O's this year, but impacted organization

Johan Santana won't pitch for O's this year, but impacted organization
Johan Santana won't throw a pitch in a game for the Orioles this year, but that doesn't mean he has not had a positive impact on the organization. Santana tore his left Achilles tendon Friday during his final extended spring training start in Sarasota. It could end the career of the two-time Cy Young Award winner. Santana was hit on the left gluteus by a line drive, and his Achilles tore as he stumbled while chasing the ball. He was about to join an O's minor league affiliate and probably...

Tillman and Jones comment after the O's loss to Boston

Tillman and Jones comment after the O's loss to Boston
After not making it through the second inning in two of his last four starts, Chris Tillman took a step forward tonight. The O's right-hander struggled at times early, but gave up just one run and seven hits over six innings, and took the loss as Boston beat the Orioles 1-0 at Camden Yards. "Little better," Tillman said. "I was able to get into a rhythm there later. Early struggles, still better, but it got better late in the game. Made some bad pitches early, but worked my way out of...

No-hit into the sixth, O's fall 1-0 to Boston
There were moments tonight when it looked like Chris Tillman would get rocked. There were moments when it looked like the Orioles would get no-hit. Neither happened, but the Birds did fail to score and lost a 1-0 game to Boston in front of 24,184 fans. Those that made it to the end had to wait out two rain delays. The game was halted twice in the second inning, the first delay was just 15 minutes, but the second was one hour and 18 minutes. Boston starter Brandon Workman took a no-hitter...

Chris Tillman will try to get his season turned around tonight here at Camden Yards in the second game of the series against Boston. Tillman had an ERA of 3.34 after his first nine 2014 starts.

If O's rotation is going to get better, it has to start at the top

If O's rotation is going to get better, it has to start at the top
On Saturday night, Kevin Gausman gave the Orioles starting rotation a shot in the arm. Last night, Bud Norris did the same. The Orioles recently had an 18-game stretch where they didn't get a single start of at least seven innings. Now, Gausman and Norris have done that twice in three games. The Orioles have gotten some good starts lately, but they've also gotten some terrible ones. The issue moving forward starts at the top of that rotation - Chris Tillman and Ubaldo Jimenez need to get it...

Norris on his outing tonight, plus Markakis and Flaherty comments
Bud Norris pitched eight innings of scoreless baseball tonight to lead the Orioles past Boston 4-0 as they get this series off to a good start. What was working for Norris out there? "Little bit of everything," he said. "We are always focused on getting ahead in counts and really fastball command. Caleb (Joseph) called a great game and the guys made the plays behind me. Just that extra little bit of focus to play the game." Norris gave up just three hits tonight and threw 98 pitches. He...

Bud Norris with eight scoreless innings as O's top Boston

Norris pitched eight scoreless innings as the Orioles beat Boston 4-0 in front of 19,729 to start a three-game series. This was the Orioles' fourth shutout. The right-hander gave up just three hits with three walks and six strikeouts. Norris threw 98 pitches to...

O's game blog: Norris on the mound against Boston and a take on Machado's apology
It has been more than a month since the Orioles played an American League East opponent but that ends tonight as the O's host Boston to begin a three-game series and 13-game stretch against division opponents. They are 13-8 against AL East teams and that is the best record by a division team in division games. The O's last game within the AL East was May 8. The Orioles are 3-4 against Boston this year but are 27-17 versus the Red Sox since the start of the 2012 season. This year the clubs...

Lough on improved offense, Stinson on his return to team
David Lough is starting in center field tonight for the Orioles as Adam Jones will serve as the designated hitter. Lough is batting just .196 in 102 at-bats. But he is 6-for-14 with a double, two homers and five RBIs over his past six games. "Yeah, but we aren't winning," Lough said of his offense finally starting to come around. "So doesn't matter what I do. It's what we do as a team. It's unfortunate we can't win more games. But I feel fine, I feel good. Knew I'd come around...

Dan Duquette's take on Manny Machado and more
Orioles executive vice president Dan Duquette was a guest on "The Norris and Davis Show" this morning on 105.7 FM The Fan in Baltimore and talked about the events this weekend involving Manny Machado. "Manny had a confrontation with (Josh) Donaldson and then we threw inside to Donaldson and Donaldson turned to their bench and I don't know what he said exactly but I think he asked for support from his pitching staff," Duquette said. "And later on in the series, they threw at Manny not...

After rough weekend, Manny Machado may have some repair work to do

After rough weekend, Manny Machado may have some repair work to do
In the latest American League All-Star Game voting results released last night, Manny Machado is in third place in the vote for the starting AL third basemen. Hope he's not counting on getting any votes out of Oakland this week. Machado had a rather eventful weekend. It ended with some of his own fans lashing out at him via social media, on here and on many other places. No one from the A's took a swing at him, but he took some haymakers from fans calling him immature and worse. My take is...
