Orioles lose 10-5 while trying to solve rotation riddle

Orioles lose 10-5 while trying to solve rotation riddle
No matter how Dylan Bundy fared this afternoon, Orioles manager Brandon Hyde could reach a certain level of comfort in knowing that he sent an actual starter to the mound. Hyde is plugging holes in the rotation as if it's a kiddie pool. He's resorted again to using openers, which really constitutes a bullpen game with the first reliever unable to provide length. There's a glaring difference beyond the terminology. The baton-passing "affects you the next day and it affects you the day after...

Elias on Henderson, international signings and more (O's down 10-4)
The Orioles announced the signings of their top two draft picks over the past two days and they still have more work to get done. Executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias said negotiations continue with the remaining unsigned players, who include LSU outfielder Zach Watson (third round), Stanford first baseman Andrew Daschback (11th) and University of Pittsburgh right-hander Dan Hammer (13th). Ten of the 41 selections haven't agreed to terms. Asked about a few of the...

Updating Rogers' injury and latest Orioles acquisition

Updating Rogers' injury and latest Orioles acquisition
Josh Rogers is undergoing tests today on his left elbow and the Orioles are braced for more bad news. Rogers complained of soreness following last night's relief appearance and the Orioles placed him on the injured list, classifying the ailment as a sprain. They should receive the results later today or Thursday morning. "I'm not a doctor, " said manager Brandon Hyde, "but I don't think it's great." Rogers was acquired from the Yankees last summer in the Zack Britton trade and is 1-3...

Leftovers for breakfast

Leftovers for breakfast
Adley Rutschman provided a nice distraction yesterday for the Orioles. He also supplied the humor. Asked if he had any nice purchases in mind after receiving a record $8.1 million signing bonus, Rutschman smiled and said, "I don't really know. I'm pretty comfortable with my Honda Civic." A question about his physical condition was handled in three words and with another grin: "I feel great." If you want him to expand on it, find a comfortable seat and keep waiting. Rutschman made a...

Orioles lose 8-3 but announce signing of Henderson (updated)

Orioles lose 8-3 but announce signing of Henderson (updated)
Jimmy Yacabonis walked the first batter he faced tonight and waited for the third. Yacabonis stayed off the rubber as the ovation built for Manny Machado, the former Orioles All-Star and Platinum Glove winner making his return to Camden Yards. He understands and appreciates a moment, but he also won't surrender to it, getting a called third strike with a sweeping slider. Machado had the final word, however, launching a 455-foot home run into the visiting bullpen on the first pitch thrown to...

Hyde on Machado, Rutschman and injured Orioles (O's down 8-3)
Orioles manager Brandon Hyde joked twice today about speeding up and concluding his pregame media session so everyone in the room could get the next guy. Manny Machado drew a crowd in his return to Camden Yards and his session lasted about 11 minutes longer. Hyde was more of an opener, but only for today. "I didn't get to see him play much to be honest with you. I saw him play a couple times interleague when we came here in '17," Hyde said. "I obviously watched him on TV a lot. Everybody...

Machado on his return and the relationships he built
While catcher Adley Rutschman continued his day at Camden Yards with rounds of batting practice, hitting balls over the flag court in right field, former Orioles infielder Manny Machado met with the media in the auxiliary clubhouse and tried to express his feelings at returning to the city for the first time since last summer's trade. Machado wore a sleeveless T-shirt in Padres blue and a smile that kept reappearing as he reminisced about his time in Baltimore and the various influences that...

The banquet circuit will be followed by a trip down to Sarasota, where Rutschman will report to the Gulf Coast League team. Executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias said Rutschman eventually will join short-season Single-A Aberdeen to conclude his first summer outside...

Orioles claim Scott off waivers and DFA Gilmartin

Orioles claim Scott off waivers and DFA Gilmartin
The Orioles have made another move this afternoon by claiming right-hander Tayler Scott off waivers from the Mariners and optioning him to Triple-A Norfolk. Left-hander Sean Gilmartin was designated for assignment to create room on the 40-man roster. Scott, the first pitcher from South Africa to play in the majors, is a 27-year-old rookie who served as the Mariners' opener Thursday against the Orioles. He walked the bases loaded in two-thirds of an inning. In five appearances, Scott has...

Orioles sign Rutschman and reportedly agree with Henderson
The confidence that Orioles executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias expressed in his ability to sign his top draft pick wasn't unfounded or misplaced. The Orioles announced this evening that they signed Oregon State catcher Adley Rutschman, with an introductory press conference scheduled for Tuesday afternoon. MLB.com's Jim Callis is reporting an agreement with Alabama prep shortstop Gunnar Henderson, the club's second-round pick. Rutschman, the first overall selection, will...

Cobb: "I am working hard to make the future the best that I can"
While the Orioles enjoy the first of two off-days this week, any break providing relief after losing 11 of the last 12 games and 15 of 18, pitcher Alex Cobb remains in Nashville, Tenn., while thrust into the early stages of a rehabilitation program following hip surgery. Cobb is staying close to orthopedic surgeon Dr. J.W. Thomas Byrd, who repaired a tear in the labrum that ended the veteran's season after only three starts and another round of discomfort and disappointment. And Cobb isn't...

Hyde and Cossins catch up on friendship

Hyde and Cossins catch up on friendship
The failures that keep flowing to Orioles manager Brandon Hyde as if shot through an open hydrant are made more tolerable by having his best friend to share in the journey. Hyde is a first-time manager guiding the Orioles through the infancy stage of a massive rebuild. He appreciates the competitiveness one night, including yesterday's 8-4 win in Seattle that ended a 10-game losing streak, and then fumes at the litany of mistakes in a blowout loss. He walks that thin line between encouraged...

McCoy making major impression

McCoy making major impression
The Orioles prospect talk doesn't usually bring infielder Mason McCoy into the conversation. Pitching is the area that warrants the most attention, and fans are waiting for first baseman Ryan Mountcastle and outfielders Austin Hays and Yusniel Diaz to be thrust into the rebuild. Catcher Chance Sisco made it back and DJ Stewart got the call before landing on the injured list with a sprained ankle. There aren't many cries for McCoy, 24, but I sense that there's been gradual notice. McCoy is...

This, that and the other (and more)
Double-A Bowie outfielder Yusniel Diaz was chosen as the Eastern League's Player of the Week on Monday and hasn't appeared in a game since receiving the honor. Fans are curious about his disappearance. I'm here to clear up any confusion that I don't create on my own. Diaz, 22, was placed on the temporary inactive list because he's on paternity leave. He's put baseball on hold for his baby. Diaz went 8-for-19 with three home runs and 11 RBIs in his last five games. The jewel of the Manny...

Orioles announce plans for Mussina to throw out first pitch
Mike Mussina is coming back to Baltimore before heading to Cooperstown, N.Y. The Orioles announced today that Mussina will throw out the ceremonial first pitch before their June 30 game against the Indians at Camden Yards. Mussina spent the first 10 seasons of his 18-year career with the Orioles after they selected him in the first round of the 1990 draft out of Stanford University. He currently owns the best all-time winning percentage by a qualifying pitcher in franchise history with a...

What's next for Orioles roster?

What's next for Orioles roster?
The Orioles are changing cities and their roster. Dwight Smith Jr. is expected to come off the concussion injured list after playing two games with Triple-A Norfolk and hitting a home run last night, though manager Brandon Hyde left open the possibility on MASN that it could happen Friday. The Orioles must decide whether to option Anthony Santander or Stevie Wilkerson, the latter capable of backing up in center field as well as the infield positions, if Trey Mancini avoids the injured...
